I'm no expert on team building on draft leagues but i plan on making a trick room team with these mons. But also a round pixelate or Refrigerate. Any tips or help would be helpful.

Not sure what to even name this, but wanted to know what you guys think

so this is my first ever team that I have been using for abit now, but it always felt incomplete.

What the team is meant to be is a Perish trap team that I can pivot to a rain team, Mega Gengar is the centre of this team he is meant to lockdown a Pokémon in the field to maybe perish song or too help me win the weather war. They are also built to kill Pokémon that my team might struggle with such as Sinitea, a slow basculgeon, mega frosslass and other.

Politoad is here to help the team out like setting perish up while Gengar is just trying to survive, switching in to it so it tanks the move, set up rain so that we stop Charizard Y and Venu or tyranitar and steelix, and do some damage when it get the chance to.

Primarina is here to counter pokemom my other Pokémon struggle against such as garchomp, kommo-o, Charizard when we’re in the rain, and is pretty much our rain sweeeper and with the Welp of Gengar we can stop Pokémon from switching in and out an KO them.

Kommo-o is a set up sweeper who is here to deal with kinggambit, garchomp, and other we have two other Pokémon to him set up

Sneasler / Sinitea, this two are here to counter and help support the team, such as Sinitea healing kommo-o when he user that one move and help Gengar stay alive during the perish tik down. Now sneasler is here to threaten Pokémon with fake out in the start of a match, and maybe killing kinggambit, Charizard y and floette who my other Pokémon my struggle against.

But as I said this Pokémon team seems incomplete, so I would love advice to improve this team.

Srry for the bad explaining and bad photos

I wanted to make a team that make Basculegion the besst endgame threat possible. Its able to take an Adaptability boosted 150 Last Respects from opposing Basc thanks to the berry.
The gameplan is to lead M Gardevoir with support in order to chip opponents down for Basculegion to pick every KO it needs to.

I would like to know if there's anything i could improve

Idrc if it’s alpha or not!
Also I want shiny girly pokemon if anyone wants to help🤭

Alright guys, new season new team.
Here I come with, as the title suggests, a meta slave team featuring sun (yard ofc) and venu, which seems to not be the go to in the current meta, with whim having wayyyy too much usage over it or it holding the mega stone, which obviously I'm not so it's a completely different Mon.

As for EVs, I'm about to go in a basic breakdown for all the benchmarks hit just if any nerd like me cares (probably the best part of the team)

Venu, always takes a dwb from mega aero after sitrus pop, takes two +1 moonblasts from floette and outspeeds every relevant Mon under sun, rest spatk

Yard, takes Ada slide from chomp, creeps rotom creep, rest spatk (probably changing to creep fucking vivillon creep because f that mf)

Chomp, insanely bulky set, takes heat wave into claw from most yard chomp leads being able to punish em insanely hard

Sylveon, generic sylveon EV popularized by the ariados guy, takes heat wave into eq from most chomp yard leads iirc

Adamant sash basc, pretty straightforward, the go to for basc in high ladder sadly

Gambit takes Sneas cc with chople pop and two hyper voices from gard iirc

Sitrus on Venu for all the calcs I said, here to stick around and be the only "speed control" of the team with sleep powder WHICH IS GOING TO HIT OK

Yard, nuke button overheat comprehends for defendive EVs, no one expects air slash to say goodbye to sneasler, don't need solar beam since leaf storm venu CLEARS

Bulky scarf chomp here to stick and not be the destroy them button, just annoying damage dealer to chip everyone down/clean endgames/kill glimmoras. You do not need to OHKO stuff if you outspeed them and survive the double up mindset

Sash Basc boringggggggggg. Will not bother explaining since you probably already know

Caught a full odds shiny heracross. Want to use it. I do think mega heracross has potentail its just the current meta contains alot of threats for it

I have an Idea for a set based around Mega Blastoise under tailwind with a secondary sun mode with Hisuian Typhlosion I'ma post the thread here since I need help with picking two last mons to help support this idea(Maybe even abandon and lean fully on one)

Hey ! I've started VGC with champions and out of all the teams I built I really like this one ! I love trick room but HTR is really hard to run imo, so I opted to have a tailwind mode with Aero. I'll explain the decisions for every mon :

• I made Fari extremely bulky on the physical side to be able to tank 2 close combats for sneasler. The worst matchups of the team are Kommo-o and hydreigon from the testing I made. So I added dazzling gleam and 8 points in Spa to be sure to one shot fully offensive sets for the two dragons.

• What I really wanted to do was to have fari + bascu, wich is the main lead of team. Being able to helping wave crash to OKHO a majority of the meta, all the while being protected from kingambit sucker punch is really strong imo. Is also really good to pivot with flip turn and clean up after trick room ended. I opted for adamant to be sure to one shot fully offesive zard y under sun, and also have the advantage against other scar bascu when in trick room, but maybe jolly is better

• Torkoal is really standard. I don't really need coverage since I have earth power on venu and rock slide on aero, so i went with the full fire set to cover up for most gamestates.

• Venu is kind of the star of the team, being able to do a torkoal/venu lead and sleep stuff with powder before mega evolving, or outspeeding speedier threats under TR and powering them as well ! It's just really versatile and works without it's mega, so i can bring it even when I go with Mega aero. Since it's speed stat is average it works well in both modes.

• Kingambit is just super strong under trickroom. Venu is already my fairy counter so I dropped iron head for low kick cause I really needed a fighting moove (half of my mons don't have protect so i need it on him). Went with a brave nature to beat other gambits under TR.

• Aero has a very straightforward set and is here to fix sun and rain matchupps with rock slide and tailwind. Bascu/Venu work great under wind.

Trying to make a team around vilvillon need some advice and help as well

Pokémon Auction Tournament Format

Overview

This tournament will use an auction draft format. Each player will build a team of 8 Pokémon by bidding on Pokémon during the auction.

Every participant starts with 2,000 auction points to spend. Once a Pokémon is won in the auction, it cannot be drafted by anyone else.

Building a strong team while managing your budget will be key to success.

Team Building Rules

• Each player starts with 2,000 points.
• Each player must draft 8 Pokémon.
• Each player may draft a maximum of 1 Uber Pokémon.
• No duplicate Pokémon are allowed.
• Teams are locked after the auction is completed.

Uber Pokémon

The following Pokémon are considered Ubers:

• Miraidon
• Koraidon
• Zacian-Crowned
• Necrozma-Dusk-Mane
• Kyogre
• Groudon
• Eternatus
• Ho-Oh

Each player may only have one Pokémon from this list on their roster.

Auction Format

1. Players will take turns nominating Pokémon.
2. The nominated Pokémon will begin at its listed starting bid.
3. Players may bid against each other using their auction points.
4. When bidding ends, the highest bidder wins the Pokémon and pays the final bid amount.
5. The process continues until every player has drafted 8 Pokémon.

Bidding Rules

• Minimum bid increase: 25 points.
• Players cannot bid more points than they currently have.
• Players must always keep enough points to fill the remaining spots on their roster.

Match Format

Each matchup will be a Best-of-3 series:

Battle 1

• Singles Battle

Battle 2

• Doubles Battle

Battle 3 (If Necessary)

• If the series is tied 1-1, a coin flip will determine whether the deciding battle is:
• Singles, or
• Doubles

The winner of the deciding battle wins the series.

Pokémon Usage

The same roster of 8 Pokémon will be used throughout the tournament.

Players may choose which Pokémon from their roster to bring to each battle, following the rules of the battle format being played.

Alright yall Indy championship is over so we're gonna see the same two teams on ladder for the next week: Wolfe's sand team with Steelix and the winning team, which uses Mega Floette and Mega Delphox. What are y'all's ideas for hard countering these teams?

LF: Aprimons
Sprigatto (Dusk)
Fuecoco (Love)
Quaxly (Lure)

FT: Charmander (Moon)
Popplio (Love)
Zorua (Moon)

If give all 3 I can provide a normal meltan & shiny kakuna.

(I don’t need HA, but I would be nice to have. I just wanna use the cuties for my playthrough, I’ve always wanted to start my play through with the 3 main starters)
