M. Staraptor + Support - needs improvement
What you have is already most of the way there, but why gholdengo?
It helps to counter things that Staraptor struggles with and Sneasler can’t cover, like M. Froslass
But it hasn’t really come up much tbh
yeah ok fair
So what this team really struggles with is Frosslike like you said, and most likely Metagross
So
A fire type in the gholdengo slot, preferably special attacker, would probably work really well
Awesome! Tysm
No worries!
M. Char Y?
You could yeah
It works well with whimsicott at least, but you'd have to be ok with not bringing staraptor at the same time
Actually yeah Zard Y would be great
Ooh, that’s a good point. There might be times where I want two heavy hitters
True
For another one, seeing as you have 4 support pokemon (a LOT) I'd put in garchomp for one of them
You can earthquak alongside both staraptor and zard
as well as cott and sinis
lemme think
you could replace sinistcha with it, it would improve your Zard matchup
You would just have to lock tf in for rain lmao
not a bad matchup, but staraptor would have to carry
Yeah rain’s a bitch
Especially if they have double hurricane
Archuladon completely folds after one or two attack boosts
mhmm
If you played garchomp instead of sinistcha, for rain you'd just have to use your other three support pokemon to keep staraptor alive
taunt + tailwind on whimsicott means you can set it up so pelipper can't tailwind and you can, so raptor can outspeed swampert
Could I ditch Sneasler?
mega staraptor blaze kick counters froslass
you could yeah
it doesn't really do anything that your team doesn't already
Actuall if you put garchomp in instead of sneasler, and Zard Y instead of Ghold, I think we'd have a team
Update:
this looks great!
