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.
Sylveon and water tera type. Metronome and tera blast. We won and were triumphant.
Of course, the two Kyogres and the Walking Wake spamming rain dance, water spout and Hydro steam might have had something to do with it…
That’s quite a significant drop off compared to the other two, no? Glad we have managed to get the third one! Lets go get that final one. I have a few water types I am going to trial out.
Or I could just try Sylveon and metronome again. XD
Love this - always felt Victreebel line was shafted in favour of the oddish line - it’s great that Pokémon has done something with Victreebel at last.
I think it’s a great looking mega, very creative.
(Mega Dragonite is still winning it for me though)
I’ve seen quite a few grass ogerpons this week and every one of them seemed to be spamming the same moves, so I would guess like me and tera grass Sylveon, we’re just spamming metronome item plus appropriate moves at this point.
Update:
Just for fun I tried this on my own just out in Paldea (not an online raid, using CPU allies). I actually won. Like, really surprised. More difficult than online but metronome and a high special attack user just spamming grass moves and grass tera is working.
It shouldn’t work, but it...
I think ZA looks fun and quite beautifully designed myself. Yes, it’s definitely no Xenoblade or Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom but it definitely is an improvement on PLA and SV in a number of different ways including how shadows and lighting are utilised.
This Pokemon “XP” event
I’m sure someone has said it already
But
X = 10 (roman numerals)
P = Pokemon
10 Pokemon
10th Gen of Pokemon
I dunno, could be wrong - but hey, just an idea.
So I won with a Sylveon with grass type tera and tera blast XD
Like I think everyone else was carrying me a bit at the start but when the metronome item got going it really wasn’t that hard a raid.
Maybe it’s because I’m fast approaching my forties and probably nearing the halfway point and the slide down towards the sweet release of death but I am just taking every Pokemon Presents as a bit of a gift, it might be enjoyable, might not be, either way its still a bonus in my overall...
I really, really, really don’t understand the Pokemon fandom sometimes.
I have been here since Gen 1, I have wanted some Dragonite love since at least Gen 2!
Now it finally gets a Mega putting it at least in some terms on par with the other Mega dragons, it’s as if Game Freak stole your puppy...
I think in time you’ll appreciate that it’s actually crafted rather well - in particular that it is meant to hark back to Dragonair quite explicitly but if you look closer, you’ll see a few specific callbacks to Dratini as well.
