Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
I'd like to perform my own analysis on the chaos data. Is there anywhere I can see what each number means? For example:
json['data']['Corviknight']['Teammates']['Toxapex'] = 337.664336189
what does that mean?
Metronome Dracovish is genius. People expect the choice band, so it switches things up. I love HO teams, and love seeing the variations people come up with.
I have a very similar team I am using, I love sticky trap!
Why with Gengar, Air Balloon instead of Focus Sash? With Focus Sash you can revenge kill a Dragapult. And why Focus Blast instead of Thunderbolt?
Also the skill swap on Ribombee is genius!
Intro
This Team is based off of Jediment's Traffic Cops team (https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/traffic-cops-a-hyper-offense-team.3657703/), with my own modifications, especially post Dynamax and Post G-Darmanitan. I really like this team, and it has carried me (just got into competitive in...
So I saw the post about G-Darmanitan getting banned, for right now I have replaced him with:
Corviknight @ Leftovers
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP / 32 Def / 136 SpD / 88 Spe
Careful Nature
- Brave Bird
- Substitute
- Bulk Up
- Roost
Does that work?
On a semi-related topic, I struggle with...
I don't have anything competitive to add, but Toxapex is a Starfish (Crown of Thorns Starfish) not a coral. It eats coral.
I will be trying out your team in ladder, and trying some of HyperFlux's suggestions if your core team doesn't work for me. But it looks great and fun!
Dude, thank you so much! I know this is a late reply, but I really appreciate your help! I have been trying out other teams to learn more about the meta, and I will now try this.
To be honest, I think I like Physical Dragapult just for Dragon Darts, which is just very cool in game. Not so much...
So I am new smogon and competitve and showdown, and I have no idea if my team is good or terrible. My elo hovers around the 1100 - 1300 mark. I am fairly sure my team doesn't have synergy, so I could use some suggestions.
Dragapult @ Choice Band
Ability: Infiltrator
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252...
