Still thought it was worth a mention since Sash is fairly common with a SR set. I'm expecting Shattered Psyche to be the most common Z move on Volcarona here; although bulky berry Volcarona is also good to deal with Mimikyu.Nihilego for check Volcarona ... ? Be careful, some Volcarona as play with Z Shattered Psyche for deal with Toxapex so ...
That's partly why I decided to run Flyinium-Z Aerodactyl. Just enough speed to beat out Max speed Marshadow and OHKO non sash Marshadows with Z-FlyThat out of the way, Aerodactyl might be a key Pokémon to beat opposing Marshadow. Or would be if it's best Flying STAB had more than 60 BP.
So basically Bulky Offense defensive pivots. You already named a few; but Tangrowth, Alolan Muk, Rotom-H, Araquanid and the Silvally formes are worth considering depending on your build.Hey guys,
I will maybe run a bulky offensive team and need help. I found a few team members which work very well, but what I miss is the oppirtunity to make good switchins. For example: I have a normal and a ghost/fighting (lol) Pokemon so I can play mind games with oppossing Marshadows which attack it should use. But on the other side there are many Pokemon where I don't have good switchins. I search Pokemon like Toxapex, Gliscor, Rotom-W. What Pokemon are bulky enough for good switchins and are still a offensive thread (Toxapex doesn't make much damage, but its typing, Regenerator/Recover/Black Sludge and Scald/Toxic can stall most Pokemon). So short: I need bulky Pokemon which has still a offensive presence.
For example: I really like Crawdaunt. It's Z-Crabhammer 0HKO Aegislash in Shield form! But It's because of mediocre bulk and bad speed a bad switchin for a water Pokemon (because of resistence).
Every advice would help :)
Thx for your suggestions!So basically Bulky Offense defensive pivots. You already named a few; but Tangrowth, Alolan Muk, Rotom-H, Araquanid and the Silvally formes are worth considering depending on your build.
Considering what Unibot mentioned, Rotom-W seems like a natural 5th team member. It also acts as a great answer to Omastar.Thx for your suggestions!
Atm my must have team members are Gliscor, Exploud, Volcarona, Marshadow. The other 2 I experimented much but didn't find something so I used everytime 3 of the first five.
Crawdaunt was one idea because it 0HKO Aegislash in shield form with z waterium. And Toxapex is also not bad. But friends do you don't get with it. It can most of the meta just toxic and recover. Very annoying and very very few counter ...
Do someone have suggestions for the 2 remaining team members? I thought of Araquanid cause It's always a good pick and could learn sticky web. But in the end the team have to profit from this and I think they don't!?
Do you have the same username on there? I would really love to discuss a trade for a Marshadow :) sorry if this isn’t a good way to reach you.Seems like a fun enough time despite the utterly barbaric Bibarel ban. Good luck to everyone playing in this.
edit: If you catch me on discord/ps, I can most likely hand out duped Alamos Darkrai and other eventmons (Marshadow) to people in need once the the meta matures a bit as we get closer to the tournament.
Messaged you with the deets. Welcome by the way!Do you have the same username on there? I would really love to discuss a trade for a Marshadow :) sorry if this isn’t a good way to reach you.
Hey, wondering which Discord server you mean. Is there a Discord for competitive battling? Id love to join, I have a team almost built on my DS and would love to have help testing it out either in-game or in ShowdownIt's been interesting looking at what people are thinking on here and on Discord. Of the five teams I've built so far, all of them have had various iterations of Mimikyu and Marshadow on them.
