This thread provides valuable insights for players looking to refine their competitive team building and counter common meta threats in current VGC formats.
Either gotta give speed to Xaichu or Scarf my Archaludon

Would choice scarf arch work?
or do I gotta give more speed to Xaichu to not struggle into sneasler
For sneasler no
Arch cant deal with sneasler
do I give Xaichu more speed to win fakeout pressure
I feel like with unburden seed sneaslers I still struggle maybe
You can only outspeed Adamant ones
So yea
And unburden one you cany win out
how can I improve my matchup into sneasler
Other way is to use a priority blocing mon
eh that would be weird in rain
hm
I have no idea how to lead into sneasler
Farig maybe?
Base Goli doesnt seem good for this team ill be real
no I cant add farig
its godly
insane pivot for weather wars
priority abuse
slow pivot
murders trick room teams turn one or in trick room
and is great against swamperts grass weakness
also farig in rain would be shit
i think i did a swampert and pelipper tailwind
