Optimizing Trick Room Teams: Mega Camerupt VGC Strategy
Summary
In the Pokémon Champions | VGC Battles & Tournaments server, members are analyzing a Trick Room team featuring Mega Camerupt. The discussion focuses on improving lead consistency with Farigiraf and Incineroar, managing threats like Kingambit, and refining EV spreads. Community members are actively sharing advice on potential roster swaps, such as replacing Primarina with Grimmsnarl or utilizing Cofagrigus as an alternative Trick Room setter.
Howdy! I’m here to ask if my trick room, mega camerupt team is too ambitious, and maybe some help with some weak points that I can get some help on!
Firstly I 9/10 start off with Farigiraf and Incineroar to set up -1 (Yknow the usual!) use fakeout and Attempt to set up trick room, and if I do set up trick room, parting shot with incineroar and switch in Camerupt, but I feel like I’m having some issues when it comes being able to contend and when I’m down with Farigiraf I feel like I’m clawing my way back into a losing battle
Usually I bring
1/2: Incineroar, Farigiraf
And in the back is either Snorlax or Camerupt, and Sinistcha
My Main issues:
-
Losing Farigiraf turn one to Kotow Cleave (I know Kingambit runs rampant and that’s something I’m going to have to learn to face it, and I don’t want to complain about meta cause I’m just doing this to have fun!)
-
possible Pokemon EV’s, am I spreading them too thin? Should I just focus on two things and not try to account for every possible scenario?
-
Primarina. I love Primarina, but I don’t get any times where it would be good to bring her, since I’m using her more as a support, I was thinking about switching him out for Grimmsnarl since it has prankster I believe
If you guys have any better ideas or team tweaks I will listen with open ears!
sylveon would be awesome here haha
Cofragigus is an an amazing tr setter it also has great recovery options!
Ive been screaming that coffin needs more love for ages
