Scarf chomp may be a choice?
Doesnt really help when it dies before getting to really do anything either
Maybe make volcarona a lil bulkier
U have fiery dance and this looks supportive, take from spatk into hp

Then id have to redo chmops set
Okay maybe i do suck since you found a way to win
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9championsvgc2026regmc-2697758893
its just a very hard team to pilot.
you dont suck
you have to understand using a bo3 team to ladder is hard enough already. but using one that was piloted at regionals means its in an upper skill level and tailored to the player
Well the core is that regional team, the ceru, chomp and volc were my ideas
Since at the time, i was having a hard time with speed control, and it was like a week or two after eric rios won frankfurt with a volc on his team
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9championsvgc2026regmc-2697760836
its definitely useable
youre just going to have to make harder reads to make it happen
honestly your sash would be better on volc.
maybe give lorb to ceruledge and scarf to chomp. remove swords dance and toss in another coverage move.
that might make it feel a bit better.
but as the team is its def useable
you just have to spam games with it
if you do go sash you might try poison jab for the rilla matchup. but thats just me.
scarf*
completely understandable.
its a very high skill ceiling team
i found myself really not bringing lopunny to any matchups
every time i tried i lost.
volc is a bit too susceptible to ohkos
which sucks because you really want the chance to get that struggle bug off in some of these mu's
or a safe tw
in most mu's rage powder just felt like i was sacrificing the mon. and often times i lost it before the second hit came through
personally this feels better ev, item and move wise.
Discord sent us an expired image link.

heres the link if you want to give it a try.
well its more of
you cant use it without the struggle bug or follow me being reliable
and theres just not enough bulk in either to garuntee it
which is why i swapped some stuff around a bit to make some things a tiny bit more livable and give you a hair of breathing room
lopunny and ceruledge felt the weakest in these mu's this may help with that
indeedee was too damage invested to do her job properly volc was too damage invested to do its job either.
ok im going to bed ping me if you need me
honestly id put some hp on chomp too
since hes scarfed now he can afford some points
15 in speed still tops at 225.means you can go 19 in hp
but you have to go jolly.

try that out and see how it feels
