Mega scov seems devious
You're in patreon?
Yea
So uh
First thought is
Trick room seems ridiculous
And my exact next thought is run stall
My thoughts are scov is good
Oooooo then I have the thought of houndstone ttar
Houndstone mega ttar cook
Truke
Spicy sand 👀
You do need an answer to all the trick room
The araquanid and Golurk resistances are questionable
So rn i have two ideas, this one and a trick room one
Just which direction i go depends on really which one works out better
I don't really like that team I feel there are more coherent teams possible
Is this a money tournament
No
Granted offered up his own team and some suggestions for trick room
Also grim screes
Screens
Its really not a fully finished team either since i still need a 6th mon and items for vileplume and liepard
ay
im in the patreon
will be countering this team now tysm
Jokes on you, i aint done
💔
