Insects are incredibly resourceful! Did you know that some dung beetle species use the stars to navigate on dark nights!?

Special thanks to the user snowflake necklace for teaching me a lot about teambuilding, and to bugwithabigass for fighting the good fight out there. I think these teams are capable of making it to top 500!

Platinum Spirits
Team: https://pokepast.es/3dd85fb1b4ccc5ab

Thoughts: Building for this was interesting. I am surprised aero didn’t make the final cut here, but given how much ttar, dd mence and cm bliss threaten mono flying, I think mence makes sense defensively. Offensively the power is really nice for progressing against stall in a more active way than pp-stalling.

It would be interesting to see something other than flying and psychic make the cut, because they’re a clear step above the rest. I think a rock spam with cradily, spikes omastar and lunatone as backbone might work. Mono water could work with lanturn and ludicolo as electric/grass answers. Mono fighting is a long shot, but the potential might be there with reversal sweepers. Mono-ground has a shot with quag for water checking + spin + dugtrio for celebi. Poison has some interesting options including nido’s for rock resisting, tentacruel for fire checking, spikes via roselia and destiny bond gengar. Probably wouldn’t work, though.

Anyway, I will edit this post with replays later.

Did a pretty big update, sorry for the delay ( I've had a hectic irl lately). Achievements not in compliance with alt age have been reinstated, as that rule no longer applies.
I'll keep up with the thread and have it up to date as you all post.

[I may very well have missed something, so please shoot me a dm if you have questions.]

Happy laddering!

Special thanks to nal for giving tips for a few of the challenges and for providing teams that I could edit to my liking for the challenges that required building from scratch. Sharing these teams to give people food for thought for those challenges. I'll be back to claim Guacamole later.
