    Hi Pinkacross! I took a break from teambuilding for a while but I'm back and want to know what you think about this team: https://pokepast.es/195972e3c6d8b890. It seems pretty solid/standard so I can't tell if I'm making mistakes in piloting it or if I'm just losing to Ogerpon because it's Ogerpon. Let me know what you think! Thanks!

    Hey Pinkacross, I remade that terrible team I gave you (sorry for wasting your time abt that) but I think I made it better with your advice, and I was wondering if you think this is better at all. I think I made two big changes here by switching dondozo for Keldeo and clef for SD Weavile which helped my offense a lot, and making treads spdef, but kyurem is still a problem. I was wondering if you could re rate it, thanks! https://pokepast.es/ebe91c0366271474

    No worries at all, there's nothing wrong with making bad teams. I do it myself all the time. This is better but still struggles with lack of immediate power. I'd give it a 6/10 at a glance. I don't think this is weak to Kyurem.

    Perhaps try CB Weavile, might be an improvement but might not.

    Playing a discord tour where people make svou (minus tera) teams plus one designated Mon I got baxcaliber (no snow) and I tried building around it but what worked best was this archived sample https://pokepast.es/8535e5ac80a6f650 want to know what I could change to make it work better, although I could swap teams entirely if this one is too unreliable
    Pinkacross

    I've never built bax without snow. CB is probably the way to go. This team dies to Wellspring though. I'd just rebuild and consider the modern threats

    https://pokepast.es/283cfc3b988318b7 Decided to make a team around sinistcha + dondozo cuz it’s a good anti offense core + kind of skilless imo. Just wondering if you can rate this version on ten with some improvements. All I can say is that I’m not exactly about the items and some moves yet, and that wogerpon can be a very bad matchup if you don’t position properly, along with kyurem.

    Yea Kyurem is horrifying here. Complete lack of offense worries me as well. I'd say 4/10. Seems kind of like a worse version of standard stall. I'd need to test to be sure but I'm not a fan of this

    I'd ditch treads for an SD gliscor, that gives you a wincon and a better knock user

    Could you please put the teams somewhere other than my page if you're not asking for rates? I recommend Google Docs or Showdown.

    mb, showdown is bloacked so i can only use radical red showdown offline version teambuilder so i just put the teams here till i can get home. Mb
    Made a Weavile team, got recommended to add shadow sneak to val and CM to bolt. Haven't noticed a major difference with the sneak over psycho cut but cm has made it better. Do I have any glaring weaknesses? https://pokepast.es/62119542e2ccc2ac

    Very confused by this Ival spread. Seems like full attack investment is better. I'd go Dragon Pulse over Draco on Rbolt. Booster Attack on Tusk also seems worthwhile. Rillaboom is a menace here, that's my main concern.
    Pocketrocket
    Thanks man, I stuffed up with the val set, i swapped the nature around without reinvesting stats.

    I made a AV crown team and had a Mienshao too because who doesn't like to click Close Combat know FS can finish whatever is still on the field?

    I very much doubt the viability of Mienshao, but my main concern is your lack of immediate power. I'd go either AV on Hrott and Specs on Iron Crown, or AV on Crown and CB on Hrott. CB Aqua Jet Tera Water Hrott may be best since that gives you some strong priority. That's what I'd go with

    Good Morning, Dr.Pinkacross!
    I have been working on this Offensive Hstack team around AV Hamu+ RC Glimm for a month.
    Do you mind giving me some feedback on it?
    The team
    I opted for tera fire on Zamazenta over the standard ones for a better matchup into Wisp Pult.
    Thank you in advance!

    I see, that makes sense. There's really no solution to the Gweez problem beyond major restructuring, Ogerpon issue would be helped by running Twave + Hex on your Gholdengo. As for Lando leads, no easy solution there, perhaps just lead Gholdengo and MIR if the Balloon isn't important otherwise.

    Sorry, what about deoxys speed? I struggle against np sets most since they can play my samurott's sucker punches
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    Honestly if Deo-S is getting past a team with a ghold, AV Sucker hrott, and espeed dnite, I feel like that's just a matter of playing. I'm sure with a bit more practice it won't be an issue

    Hey Pinka! Managed to catch a bit of the Dragalge live and was actually interested in having a Dragonite + Hoopa + Alo core similar to the team you ended up using! Is there anything specific you would swap out dragalge with that you think would improve the team? Like pivot Glowking or even boots Bolt?
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    Yea probably Glowking would be loads better and function similarly, perhaps physdef Colbur Tera Grass so its a decent Wellspring swapin
    think luis

    Probably the hazard situation. Go HDB on Tusk. No answer to Ghost types is also pretty bad. Gambit over Sciz maybe
    think luis

    I'm also a bit worried about the absence of a ground immunity however i am unsure of whether that demands action
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    You have Mola and Wellspring, lack of ground immunity isn't ideal but it's far from the biggest concern

    For your next Natdex stream, could I possibly suggest Mega Manectric? Rising Voltage on Electric Terrain is a solid cleaner, and it's got intimidate to help soften blows for teammates in sticky situations. Overheat also disencourages Ferro from coming in, which is nice as an Electric Type. I've recently hit #35 on the Natdex ladder with this squad featuring the mon: https://pokepast.es/f31aa1862306e510

    I could provide replays if you're interested, too

    Oh wait I'm so sorry you've already done Mega Manectric lmao, I should've checked!
    Pinkacross

    All good! Yea Mega Manectric is pretty cool

    Hi Pinkacross, I liked watching your videos especially the one featuring stall breakers and wanted your opinion on my team. Also, how well does it fare against the rest of the OU meta?

    Hey Pinkacross, i watched some of your rmt vids and i wanted to know what a player who has reached the top of the leaderboard would say about I team I built recently for natdex, I tried opting for offense/hyper offense but my understanding of the team archetypes aren’t the best but here it is

    https://pokepast.es/23062dfac324ba46
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    Yea this team is a bit wonky. Half offense and half hyper offense here. Volc Ival Gyara are HO, and Lele Tusk Hrott (at least this set of Hrott) is moreso balance
    Pinkacross
    Pinkacross
    I'd recommend cutting em in half and making 2 teams
