    So far what I’ve noticed is that it doesn’t do well against Tera Fairy, Focus Sash Calyrex-Shadow

    Looks standard but pretty solid. I'd go Psychic Noise over Psychic on Crown and I'd advise against Tailwind on RM.
    hey pink, made this team and wanted to know ur thoughts. i know it has bad mos but work with me. its a veil team centered around toxtrcity, dragonite kingambit are set up sweepers, great tusk is for electric immunity and damage and ninetales is there to set veil. Toxtricity is a bit of a strange case, punk rock throat spray boombursts with tera normal can ohko mons like gliscor, lando t, zamazenta,

    Wanted to say a big thanks before I posted a couple teams; went through (and am still dealing with) my first bout of random depression and was unable to sleep normally. That was, however, until I started watching your streams. They have been crucial to helping me fall asleep, as watching them helped me feel like how I used to when drifting off, and I don’t know what I’d do without them

    Also, I'm glad you've found my streams helpful! I hope your situation improves.

    Thanks a ton! Hope everything continues to go well for you too. Oh yeah, Suggestion for a future OU stream: Perhaps try something with Mystical Power Azelf? Doubt it’s good in any way but it’s got some stuff I gues

    I doubt it's viable but I'll keep that in mind. Thanks for the recommendation!

    This looks pretty solid! You may want to try HDB Wisp Pult and Wellspring over Dondozo! I think running a sweeper-stopper like Dondozo is a bit redundant when you have such a fantastic revenge killer in Lokix, paired with pivots like Corv and Glowking.

    Not a fan of Slow Tusk here. You lose to Kyurem on preview to be honest, Freeze Dry super effective against everything. DD Roaring Moon looks unbeatable as well. I'd recommend testing on ladder, recording all the weaknesses, and adjusting the team to improve it. One immediate improvement is fast offensive tusk
    I wanted to make a trapinch team so I made this in like 5 seconds, I know it’s bad and it’s really just for fun but I want to push it to be as good as possible. How could I improve it? <<view-team-888885-czr4z8ngo2iv9xzetosv>>

    Shoutout to you. When I first started playing your YT videos helped me acclimate to this gen and improve rapidly. I've been enjoying this snow/hail team that's performed well above my expectations and would love to hear how you would improve it. Cetitan probably sticks out but I'd prefer to have at least one mon on the team that is an actual snow/hail abuser.

    I'm happy to hear you've found my content helpful! To be honest, I think Cetitan is unfixably terrible. I'd say the best set is probably HDB 4 attacks... maybe Belly Drum 3 attacks, probably still with HDB though. I'd recommend comitting to the HO idea more. Go DD Kyurem to take advantage of those veil turns, and give Heatran SR.

    I've been experimenting with AV tblast poison Azumarill in OU and it's been performing well for me; do you think it has potential at a higher level? I'm only around the 1500s
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    AV Azu sounds ok. Outclassed by Primarina for the most part, but it does have priority, Knock Off, and much better Physdef. I could see it working on some Bulky Offense / Offense team.

    You should do a challenge where you fill up your a box in actual s/v with each row and collumn is a team.

    I will not be doing this, since my channel doesn't do in-game content.
    Hey I know this is suboptimal but I was having a lot fun in the lower tiers with dragon dance Gyarados. I wanted to build a team around it and this is what I came up with, what are your thoughts/what would you change?

    Thanks for your time!

    Given the existence of Kingambit and Raging Bolt, I'd recommend Sub on Gyarados, probably over Waterfall. The rest of the team honestly doesn't make much sense with Gyarados. Gyarados is a very inconsistent sweeper, so I'd either put it on Offense or Hyper Offense.
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    The rest of the team is a Balance, so probably either Gyarados will sweep, or you'll feel like you're playing a 5 pokemon team.

    once I started using wellspring, Kyurem, Gambit, Ghold, and all that I had a feeling that was like why am I trying so hard when I can just use the broken pokemon. Do you have any tips to beat stall without a breaker that does nothing most games? I don't want to hear hazards.
    Over Thinker
    Hello, hope you had a nice Christmas. I just discovered Zama gets imprison.I have been experimenting with this set in NatDex:https://pokepast.es/af50d24b956ad2ea. This shuts down anything other Zama want to do.I have been using it on this team:https://pokepast.es/9e06cea76786ebc0. You don't need to review this team I just wanted to share this set because I thought it was cool.Merry Christmas.
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    Cool idea, and definitely could mess up some opposing Zama in lategame situations, but honestly I don't think a Zamazenta that can't hit Ghost types is viable.
    Over Thinker

    Yeah that's pretty tough which is why I have Gambit to pursuit. Alternatively you could run Crunch over Roar but that does make you less effective against Zamas and other pokemon with Roar.

    Yes, good point.

    Good evening, Pinkacross. You were really helpful last time I sent a team to you, so I hope you can look at this Palafin bulky offense team I've been trying to cook up. I've been trying a lot of stuff on this but I can't find anything that feels quite right. I did a Corv variant but that was inconsistent because I couldn't fit Knock Off. Thank you for your time.

    If you want to keep rocking with Palafin, I'd recommend putting that set on an Offense or HO team.

    I did replace it with Wellspring and it's doing great. Increased the team's effectiveness by like 70%, thank you.
    I think this is actually my first time using Wellspring and wow, where was I? This guy actually fucking rocks, I'm surprised it's even legal in OU.

    Yea, me too LOL

    Good afternoon and merry Christmas, Pinka. Your recommendations for my triple Dark team were very good and I was hoping that you could also take a look at this team with Palafin.

    It started different but after some iterations it ended up having all of the strongest pokemons in the tier. It is naturally performing well (it has 5 OUBL mons), but it could be better. I'm dubious about the EV spread for Gliscor and the Tusk and Kyurem sets. I've also thought about running Life Orb 4 attacks Zamazenta. What are your thoughts?
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    Merry christmas! I think this team is too weak to Ogerpon-Wellspring to be honest. Encore sets in particular are devastating. If you're going to go with this Palafin set, I'd recommend making the team more offensive. Something that may work well with the Palafin + Kyurem core is an Eject Button Hatterene
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    I've been playing around with that idea a bit, but Specs Kyu loves hazard control and a free entry, as does Palafin. Palafin lead + Ejectmon is also great.
    Good morning/afternoon/evening depending on whatever part of the world you in. I know you get a lot of these but it would mean a lot if you could take a moment to look at my team and tell me how you would optimize it. The team has been performing decent so far (10-0 on an alt trying to get reqs) but I figured I'd let you take a look at it.

    Thanks for your time!

    My main concern here is Ogerpon-W. You have a CB Palafin, and no really solid switch-in. You also have no ground resist, a Great Tusk clicking Headlong Rush devastates your team. I'd recommend Rillaboom over Meowscarada and Dragapult over Raging Bolt.

    Merry Christmas! I appreciate the feedback! Your suggestions have definitely yielded positive results so far and it seems like I should be on the way to get reqs by tomorrow or Friday.

    I'm just curious if the Dragapult set you had in mind was the Boots set? I'm running a choice specs set atm which is working fine but I wonder if I have to many choice attackers on the team currently (4).
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    Merry Christmas! I'm glad I was able to help! As for the Dragapult set, yea definitely HDB, 4 choice mons is pushing it.

    https://pokepast.es/5fa0c6b225791108 returned to the leaderboards with this team. Prob not that good simply cuz its psychic terrain but i was winning a lot of matches that psychic terrain usually loses to

    Rilla destroys psy terrain, the solution is not running psy terrain

    I don't think I'm good enough at NatDex to rate teams yet, but from my limited experience your team seems too slow and vulnerable to sweepers. Not really sure to how fix that tbh, I'm struggling with learning the tier myself
    hey pink, i made this trick room team around glastier and i wanna know what u think. One of my favoirte parts abou it is that slowbro cna use chilly reception to give glastrier a bost and it can get some koes. https://pokepast.es/0e4785e6ad0301f7

    On paper this doesn't look great, very slow and no solid defensive core. Test and see on ladder, but I'm not optimistic
