Screech on Corv is cool tech
Are you %100 set on using beedrill ? His one I consider pretty hard to make work
No won’t lie he was a fill because I don’t have many Pokémon on the game yet but I just learned I can move them over with home
Yeah home is the way haha. Well that changes a lot
Not to mention format change is in 7 days !
Should give us the rest of the megas to pick from too
This is my first time messing with online battles so I just don’t fell super confident so I have just played casually really
Team looks good, all I'll say is lack of protect
trust me, might remember, I wasn't the most fond of protect either lol
Yeah it’s unfortunately needed positioning is just as important as attacking
So who would be a good switch for bedroll
Beedrill
you want some support
I think you need support yes
maushould, sinisctha, even my personal favorite vivillion is fine
whims aswell
Whimsicott I thought just checking team
Yeah whimsi for sure
great minds think alike lol
I was thinking talonflame or whimsicott
Only reason I didn’t say talon is because Corv is also flying
Didn’t wanna double up on elec weakness
I mean sylveon is also fairy on that logic
but I think bulk is needed more here
so whims
True.
Sylveon is really good this meta tho
She out spread damages my spread damagers 😭
She was working really good as my switch in for palfin to get his ability working
What’s moves and imsiv’s should I give my whimsicott?
Encore tailwind protect and moon blast or dazzling gleam depending what you want
Moon blast is more common
You can use whimsi in all formats she’s pretty cool
One of the best supports in the game
Bet I have to go train one up in violet quick then my team is set
Yep. If you get comfy with whimsicott you’ll enjoy vgc haha
Bet I’m going to look up the best iv an nature
I think theirs two versions really
One is max speed max spa and has focus sash
Other is as bulky as possible with mental herb
I think focus sash is best atm
Bet I’m probably going to go tank with me need it for support
Erm Jarvis what is Beedrill gonna do
