    Hi Pinka c:
    I am trying to get descriptions and or give a last look at the ou room samples. I wanted to see if there was smth you wanted to add/change to yours or if there's any specific notes I should add to the description. You can message me in Suwawa#8387 if that's easier.

    Nice badge :]

    Thank you! Sorry for the late response. The team is pretty simple: stack hazards with Landorus and Ferrothorn, abuse Defog with Bisharp, and use the core of Slowbro + Victini + Koko to break. If the description comminicates that, I dont see any need for a change. :]

    Hey, i haven't been on in a very long time but i improved quite a bunch!
    I decided to make a team based off Necrozma (1 of my favorite mons) and it is a decent team however it has issues with Sweepers. Any idea on how to potentially improve this team or suggest good teammates for Necrozma?

    https://pokepast.es/fba0ef05b2a1c0b2
    I recommend making a Necrozma RMT, your Lanturn one was awesome!

    I agree, Gengar + Mandibuzz seems like a very strong core. This team has no obvious structural errors, I'd recommend testing on ladder and seeing how it goes! (Warning: Volcarona is VERY scary for you).

    Thanks! I will try it
    Hey Pinkacross,

    Thanks for your help last time, I was wondering if you know any samples or teams with Zeraora that would work well against current metagame. Thanks!
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    Hey sorry I dont personally have any Zeraora teams, but if you ask around the OU room I'm sure someone would be able to provide one. I know Fusien has a good one.

    Hey there Pinkacross.

    Ive been struggling to ladder, and I wanted to know if you have any HO teams that i could use.
    Currently I’m sitting around 1300-1500.

    Due to galarian slowbro, this HO is even more consistent than most HOs, an already inconsistent playsyle. Still, this team seems solid and has all the required elements. It can definitely work and it looks very fun. :)

    I’ve lost all my 50/50’s with slowbro sadly. Also I’ve gotten higher than 1500 with this team.

    Congratulations! Also, odds of quick claw/draw are 44% I believe.

    Hey Pinkacross,

    I've made a hydreigon balance team that's taken me to the 1600s. Weavile and garchomp are annoying to deal with though, and I'm not sure how to fix this other than replacing blacephelon, which I don't want to do because it has been extremely useful for the team.

    Thank you!

    I see. Perhaps try a different breaker. Choice Band Buzzwole can provide some solid breaking power, and alongside Swords Dance Rillaboom it can threaten a lot of defensive cores. Blace could work but the main issue I see is its inconsistency and lack of defensive utility. I'd recommend you give Buzzwole a shot and see if that works.

    CB Buzzwole has been working pretty well. Thanks for your help!

    Glad to hear it. :)
    Hey buddy, another great team, sun can get really nasty.

    That being said, I haven't seen you post a Scale Shot Garchomp team. Do you have a good team with it?
    Hey Pinkacross, I really respect your work. I was just wondering if you could give me some links or list the common OU teams which are used in high elo. Thanks.
    Hey Pinkacross, i'm attempting to to build a semi-trick room team after hearing that full TR is borderline unviable.
    https://pokepast.es/40ae38963af1ab08

    here is my draft, would love to hear feedback.
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    I actually really like the look of this! Run Scald over Ice Beam on Slowbro since Heatran is a big threat, but otherwise looks really good! Let me know how it goes! :)

    Pinkacross
    Oh dude you're running 0 Speed IV with a lot of speed investment in Melmetal. Your Melm also had a 0 attack IV LOL. I made some quick fixes, heres the team https://pokepast.es/72b81ef1051c2d5a

    Thank you for all the feedback haha. I'll let you know how it goes !!

    Hey! I don't want to spam up your thread but you mentioned your #2 peak is due to a Lanturn team? Do you have the importable or even just a little blurb about it? Lanturn is a super neat Pokemon and I'd love to hear what you did with it!
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    I'd like to keep the team and its sets a secret for now, if I reveal it getting the peak will be more difficult. If I can achieve a #1 peak I'll be sure to RMT it, if not I'll release it anyways. Sorry I can't share now, but I'll release it soon one way or another.

    Hello Pinkacross,

    I have made a team that centralizes on Koko-Alolachu, and I need to see if this team I made is even decent, please give feedbacks.

    I admire all the past teams you created so you are the person I reach out to for help on team building.


    https://pokepast.es/2ad2b75d8d738860

    I will be taking any feedback to improve this team, thank you

    hey pinkacross, big fan! been working on this nihilego team for a bit and i'd love your input. typical meteor beam set, rilla as a breaker (terrain helps nihilego), kart pairs nicely, mag for steels, pert for rocks and heatran, and zapdos for physdef. tends to struggle with specs lele, dragapult, offensive volcarona, and trick room (esp marowak). what do u think? ty!!

    Gaping Holes: CB Weavile, Specs Lele, Hawlucha, CB Dragapult, Volcarona, probably some others but those are the immediate rough MUs I think of. Not unmanageable, but quite difficult and in some MUs, likely impossible.
    rcklssoptmsm

    i wonder if there's somewhere to fit pex in... feels like that would help with pretty much all of those except lele.
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    Pex theoretically helps with all of those but gets overwhelmed easily in practice. Everything on that list typically ends up beating Toxapex.

    Hi Pinkacross,
    I've built a fairy spam team around tapu koko and tapu lele. However, I'm not sure whether rotom-w is the best buiky water for this team, and I'm also considering replacing weavile for a special dark like gmolt. I'd like to know your opinion on these changes.
    Thanks!

    In summary: Make Rotom Toxic or Will-o-wisp. Swap Weavile for Moltres (taunt Np airslash imo). Make Heatran physdef Flame Body, make Rotom Spdef. Make lele Specs.

    Yo Pinka!
    If you remember me I was the one who showed you my Volcanion + Specs Lele team.
    I made this team because I really like using toxtricity because of its great power, and then with the help of a friend I built around it. It struggles with lots of things like flying-types, and I don't know how to fix it.
    https://pokepast.es/c8c3f2a90e24939b
    Thanks in advance!

    Looks pretty solid. I'd advise Body Press on Corviknight because Bisharp looks very scary and Urshifu-R isnt a long term answer. Other than that, it looks pretty nice.
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    You may also want to use Snarl on Toxtricity over Overdrive or Sludge Wave, it OHKOs Dragapult which is nice.

    blooclipse
    thanks!
    I'll try snarl on Tox.
    Iron head on Corv was from when we had Kommo-o on the team, and we needed a way to really hurt the fairies. it's now body press
    Hello Pinkacross. I have started trying to improve only recently and I read all your RMTs. Do you have any tips to improve team building? Maybe a general overview of balance or BO.

    Thank you very much for the resources you provided.

    Hi Pinkacross,

    I'm trying to build a starmie hazard stack. I've added lando and ferro for the hazard and gapdos for the defog deterrent, but I'm not sure what to add next. Could you help me out? Thanks.

    Good spinners are Regieleki and Excadrill. Rotom Wash can also give you water type removal if that's what you're looking for, as well as Tapu Fini.

    Hi Pinkacross! Sorry for the notification.

    I'm always reading all your RMTs. I have loved the ones featuring underrated mons, like PZ rain.
    I decided to try out toxtricity as it has lots of power. I also added g-zap to hit steels and blissey

    The offensive core 2HKOS/OHKOS the entire tier. The problem is, I have no idea what to add next. Could you help me out?

    I added some more mons to the now-complete team. I playtested it and it went really well. I originally had Slowbro over slowking (before I added buzzwole but I realised I wanted a special tank and a weavile check, so I added these two onto the team

    This looks pretty good. I do have a concern, though. You dont really have any speed control. This makes many sweepers extremely threatening, especially lategame, like SD garchomp, Kartana, and Weavile. I suppose with Buzzwole you have answers to these, but keep testing and see if any problems arise.
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    An easy fix would be scarf Galarian Zapdos or Scarf Buzzwole, but only make the change if needed.
    Hello! I love your RMTs, especially when they use underrated mons/strats!

    About your old hail RMT from last year, I was thinking of maybe using it cause it features multiple mons I love. Is there any potential replacement for the Dragon as 6th slot?
    I know the team is pretty outdated, but I think it still got a change to shine, which is way I'm trying to find a way to use it now. Thanks in advance!
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    You need Dragapult for speed control + beating Volcarona. Nothing else does that, so there's no easy replacement. My best guess would be Victini, but that doesn't fulfill speed control very well.
    Hi Pinkacross, loved your Umbreon RMT - you really inspire me to build with unique mons.

    With that being said, I created an Electric Spam Offense team - https://pokepast.es/22c219dc60e04634
    While it doesn't have a unique mon like yours (the lowest VR ranked mon here is Rotom-W at A-), it does feature Scarf Rotom-W

    Could you please rate this team?
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    This looks pretty solid! My one concern is Tapu Lele. Moonblast runs through your team, and Lele can come in on half your team. To help lessen this blow, perhaps try Leftovers Gyro Ball Ferrothorn over Power Whip.
    agslash23
    Thanks for the suggestion Pinkacross

    I was also thinking that Body Press over Knock off would help with the Sand matchup (Rotom-W can help vs Exca, but doesn't like to switch into CB TTar). What say?
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    It may be worth testing.
