I want to bring some quick attention to a mon I normally see overlooked, but I've been meaning to test out - Vaporeon! We all know Alomomola and what it does, tanky regen water that scalds, flip turns and wish passes, and it does it damn well, as well as being quite popular. However, it...

The Big Rain Agenda™ continues to go as planned... ehehehe Jokes aside, I'm super excited to see how Keldeo does, and giving Rain another special abuser with some speed behind it. Might see the rise of Brambleghast (immune to Fighting, resists Water AND immune to Icy Wind), Alo (who is already...

Hello my lovelies, it's me back with another team :) I used sleepyfwog's Latios set as inspiration for the core idea- Drag Spam! https://pokepast.es/a4ca0bb0c3349d0a Corviknight @ Leftovers Ability: Volt Absorb Tera Type: Flying EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD Sassy Nature IVs: 0 Spe...

Celebrating the new perma ladder, ya girl has been goofing around with weather! Barraskewda @ Choice Band Ability: Dazzling Tera Type: Water EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Adamant Nature - Drill Run - Flip Turn - Liquidation - Poison Jab Iron Hands @ Assault Vest Ability: Regenerator...

Thought I'd dump my last few teams for the tier's final days, been having a LOT of fun with them even if they aren't incredibly reliable (especially the second one). https://pokepast.es/b0fed4f4748923ad Alomomola @ Rocky Helmet Ability: Fluffy Tera Type: Water EVs: 4 HP / 252 Def / 252...

New team drop, been playing around with Cincinno with this balance team and- yeah the thing is pretty damn gross with banded Protean. Its biggest weaknesses are things that outspeed (scarf mons, things like Meow and Cinderace) and prio. If you can switch it in however on the right threats, it is...

There's also the fact that non-Fluffy Phys Def Corv just, frankly, isn't that good at taking attacks. Saying to just run Stamina Corvi which completely wastes one of the best mons in the format (or just stamina in general which is a niche at best ability) or risk getting mowed over by a mon...

To be *fair* Cincinno is weak to Stamina users, like Mamo, but I totally understand where you're coming from. Every time I've faced one when I'm not running Stamina, if I don't pilot EXTREMELY carefully around it it just tears apart my team with Protean Rock Blast. As for Woger, I honestly...

Just hit Rank 1, thought I'd dump the teams I used to climb. Alcremie Semi-Stall https://pokepast.es/673238ab7c8fa0bc Very experimental team, or rather, Alcremie is experimental. This core of 5 mons is already really strong on its own, thought I'd test out Alcremie instead of the obvious...

I've been experimenting some more and I've been finding some real great usage out of Regen SpD Forretress now! Forretress @ Heavy-Duty Boots Ability: Regenerator Tera Type: Bug EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD Sassy Nature IVs: 0 Spe - Rapid Spin - Volt Switch - Spikes/Counter -...

Me crying tears of joy seeing the Gliscor ban finally go through lmfao Jokes aside, I'm actually more excited to see how Dozo and Gapdos shape the meta, Dozo especially. Felt like we were missing a good phys def Unaware wall.

...is it? That's what Counter is for, and Oger-W only has 4 moves. It always wants Cudgel, usually wants a Grass STAB, and then it has to choose between Uturn, Knock, Play Rough, Swords Dance, Encore, etc. Sure, Encore sets can beat the Clod set, but Clod shouldn't be your only Oger-W...

Been having some trouble with certain threats, brought out regen hands from AAA to see how it does and it shockingly has been putting in work. With Hadron Engine Glowking, this thing is disgustingly tanky (the 29 Atk IVs are for getting the Def boost from Quark) I hope to be able to replace Ice...

lmfao my b, gonna be real I never look at the smogon sets >.> they never match my playstyle haha. Regardless, that's *fascinating* that the treads set is to wall Ghold and non-HW Zapdos. I usually go into a metagame off of hopes, dreams and my own teambuilding skill, and tinker with my team(s)...

This is a really solid team, Bulletproof Treads is some SICK tech and I'm really curious to hear the reasoning behind it. All I'll say is with RegenPrima being SpD and Corvi WBB, it seems like your team kinda just gets dismantled by Roaring Moon (then again, most teams do lmfao the thing is a...
