I've only played Pokemon casually but I have a full Pokemon Home and my friends have inspired me to get into competitive but i'm having a lot of trouble finding a team to play. I'm pretty unfamiliar with how setups and things go.
If anyone could please recommend me teams & maybe send me some resources on how to play them to send me in the right direction i'd appreciate it. Thank you in advance
To get familiar with a team you could also try pokemon showdown first if you don’t want to spend all your vp all the time
For sure, i've been looking at some brackets to see what strategies they've been using before i commit fully
I'm using this team from the builder at the moment, Just learning who to start with & when to switch off right now
Whimsicott + Garchomp starter - Tailwind
Incineroar + Farig to trickroom
having a bit of trouble getting it down against each team type but i've done maybe ~20 matches with this since this morning

Try this team, the game plan is simple imo
Might help you get into competitive.
i appreciate it i'll look into this next once i have the VP, been wanting to play Blastoise
Just setup trick room and sweep with water sprout
I think you can use sinischa to heal your Blastoise and have 2nd trick room setter for backup.
I usually look for teams in YouTube, maybe you could consider subs to Cybertronvgc
He explain many teams very2 well
i'll look it up right now, thank you 🙏
No problem mate
He updated to this team, any chance you know why he put sunny day on staraptor?

i've been using this team it's gotten me a decent amount of wins i'd say 80% but something is missing for sure
i see no sunny day on that staraptor, but if thats the case, maybe because he want to power up camerupt. sunny day boost fire attack
Why am I so sure I have faced this
