hello everyone, this is my first time playing any pokémon games, i've asked my friend and searched online for some teams, and ended up with this one. i really like this playstyle, and was able to reach master 1700 rating with it. but now i feel stuck. my main concerns are floette, archaludon, and trick room opponents as it messes me up. still learning about types counters, and specific weakness. i appreciate any tips. this is the guide that i first found:

@tidycomet-49 and your team really lacks support option
steadyyonder-68 OP

yeah agreed, do you have any suggestions?

@steadyyonder-68 yeah agreed, do you have any suggestions?

Sinischa and Farigiraf would really help this team
Probably replace Gallade for sinischa so you can heal up both Basc and Kommoo after wave crash/clang soul

tidycomet-49

But honestly Kommoo seems counter productive here
yes omni boost but that also means speed boost which can mess up in trick room

steadyyonder-68 OP

thank you ❤️

gallade and kommo >> sinistcha and farigiraf ?

@steadyyonder-68 gallade and kommo >> sinistcha and farigiraf ?
tidycomet-49

Yeah sinischa and Farigiraf gives the team more balance bulk and support

do your thing

merrykitten-85

It’s not hard trick room

merrykitten-85

All low mid speed mons

merrykitten-85

Need trick room in two spots

merrykitten-85

And kommoo isn’t going to do the spread damage you want

merrykitten-85

He will be sylveon food

@merrykitten-85 He will be sylveon food
sunnyquiver-34

it has soundproof

merrykitten-85

They’d just ignore it then
I don’t think it’s compatible for the set up

Even sylveon over that slot works a lot better

@merrykitten-85 It’s not hard trick room
steadyyonder-68 OP

ah, thanks, whats the difference?

@merrykitten-85 They’d just ignore it then I don’t think it’s compatible for the set up Even sylveon over that slot…
steadyyonder-68 OP

what do you suggest? besides sylveon

tidycomet-49

Hard trick room has no chance of being out slowed in trick room

@steadyyonder-68 what do you suggest? besides sylveon
merrykitten-85

Hatterne or torkoal

merrykitten-85

Hatterene

merrykitten-85
