We need to roast
Would value this team
Opinions from
Roast it lol
I mean
I won against this team
Also is very similar to the version Aaron posted
Except for the Raichu and fari auditions
I don't know what this team wants to do
And idk why you want us to roast it lmao
lol ! Muffin wants harsh ratings she doesn’t want basic team building anymore
Wants to know what’s wrong exactly basically
I guess it's one dimensional lmao
Elaborate
It has multiple win conditions sure but they're all telegraphed lmao
And kinda frail
Im just asking why farig is there, everyone is generally fast
you dont have anyone who takes much advantage of the room
you might want intimidate/fakeout/both support
Farig was here to cancel out trick room in trick room matchups cancel out sucker punch and fake out and use helping hand for support
then tsareena might be good in that spot
Tsareena still leaves me susceiptable to trick room
a lot of the tr attackers are special and whism faketears + starptor walls that mostly and a lot of physical tr attackers like king or incin aren't good into staraptor anyways
Just use imprison sinistcha then
wait that looks wierd lol
You dislocated his arm
No more protection against sucker punch or fake out
IMPRISON FARIGIRAF IT IS THEN
Taunt tsar a beast
I should've played my test games in showdown to show the team working so we could discuss based on results tbh
Can still do that when you’re ready I’ll tag a fresh batch to judge it all then haha
Most games go with strong answers to most match ups, unfortunately plays being telegraphed is more of a player issue than a team issue otherwise the entirety of NAIC would've just been telegraphed plays. I feel like a fair criticism would be where to improve the spreads and chosen moves, regarding Sinistcha instead I could try that out perhaps
Why do you want sunny day on fari?
And don't say is to boost the typhlosion
Could switch it for protect, originally it was meant to also make the rain matchup easier but
Meh I don't think it's needed
I need protect on mine now because of pyroar
It was to boost the typhlosion though that's the basic idea of it a the core in these kinds of teams
I literally can't picture a scenario where a fari and a typlo lead would work like that
Without one of the 2 dying first
If you want to disrupt weather without a weather settler, then it is better to put it on whimsicom, since in majority of scenarios it would be the most used with any of the megas
Mostly worked with Farig typhlosion lead helping hand eruption yeah
So I agree sunny day is redundant
That’ll be the protect slot on both our farigs most likely haha
Hear me out
IMPRISON FARIGIRAF
It’s cool but then no protect ?
Or no attack ?
Indeedee was commonly ran with no attack
Because terrain made her safe from prankster taunts
Farig is always safe from prankster taunts
Changed Farig spread, added protect, and substituted Hyper Voice for Psychic
went to check your spa investment
Since you actually got some psychic is better over twin beam
Mine suits twin beam better
Imprison, protect, trick room and psychic or twin beam
I don't agree with losing helping hand tbh
