Cria equipas VGC únicas: guia estratégico de Pokémon pouco usados

Resumo

O servidor do Discord Pokémon Champions | VGC Battles & Tournaments explora a fundo a construção de equipas competitivas com Pokémon pouco usados. Esta conversa analisa uma equipa singular de Trick Room com Mega Sceptile, Rotom-H e Trevenant, discutindo ataques como Ally Switch e objetos como Wide Lens. É um recurso valioso para quem quer otimizar estratégias fora do meta e ganhar vantagem sobre equipas competitivas convencionais.

@snowyledger-70 Uma equipa mesmo boa
applelizard-61 OP

Obrigado, construí-a de raiz

calmgrove-98

Portanto, tem dois modos: começar com Sceptile + Rotom-H e depois usar TR para acabar, certo? Como funciona o Ally Switch no Trevenant?

snowyledger-70

(já agora, já tenho o teu Trevenant shiny)

calmgrove-98

Qual é o objetivo? Impedir que o Pangoro leve com um ataque do tipo Lutador?

@calmgrove-98 Qual é o objetivo? Impedir que o Pangoro leve com um ataque do tipo Lutador?
applelizard-61 OP

Sim, o Rotom tem mais um ponto de Velocidade do que o Sceptile para usar Discharge e dar +1 ao Sceptile. E sim, o Trevenant está lá para chatear, ajudar no posicionamento e dar apoio aos outros.

@snowyledger-70 (já agora, já tenho o teu Trevenant shiny)
applelizard-61 OP

Meu Deeeus

ironpanther-10

Ally Switch tem prioridade, por isso podes usá-lo fora do Trick Room e levar um Ice Punch que teria atingido o Mega Sceptile.

applelizard-61 OP

Sim, eu sei, está lá para poder ser usado fora de TR e ser o meu segundo setter de TR.

calmgrove-98

Sim, usei um Mega Glimmora + Heliolisk com Ally Switch na Season 1 para chegar a Master, haha. O pesadelo de Basculegion.

applelizard-61 OP

Malvado

applelizard-61 OP

Acho que tenho bons matchups contra muitas equipas do meta, mas ainda não tenho a certeza quanto ao Golurk.

applelizard-61 OP

Queria experimentar uma mega menos usada em Trick Room.

calmgrove-98

Wide Lens no Pangoro é mesmo relevante? 90% de precisão parece-me bastante aceitável, sinceramente.

@calmgrove-98 Wide Lens no Pangoro é mesmo relevante? 90% de precisão parece-me bastante aceitável, sinceramente.
applelizard-61 OP

Só queria ser mais consistente.

applelizard-61 OP

Eu sei que 90% é aceitável, só não queria deixar a sorte influenciar tanto.

calmgrove-98

E Brick Break para evitar walls?

calmgrove-98

Em vez de Hammer Arm, já que és lento à mesma. Não acho que faça diferença no Trick Room.

applelizard-61 OP

Acho que talvez fosse melhor mudar o set todo durante o jogo.

calmgrove-98

Outra coisa é o Sylveon: parece uma grande ameaça para a tua equipa, já que beneficia do Trick Room e ninguém consegue realmente pará-lo.

calmgrove-98

20+ Atk Pangoro Poison Jab vs. 32 HP / 0 Def Sylveon: 128-152 (63.3 - 75.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Sim, pensei em Poison Jab no Pangoro, mas não chega :/

applelizard-61 OP

De quanto investimento em Ataque é que precisa?

calmgrove-98

Mesmo no máximo, continua sem fazer KO.

calmgrove-98

32+ Atk Pangoro Poison Jab vs. 32 HP / 0 Def Sylveon: 136-162 (67.3 - 80.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

calmgrove-98

Mas não sei se os cálculos estão errados ou algo do género, porque Poison Jab devia receber primeiro o boost de Iron Fist, certo?

calmgrove-98

Já que é um ataque de punho.

applelizard-61 OP

Olha, estou disposto a trocar o Golurk e fazer o Pangoro resultar, mas não quero usar Mawile.

calmgrove-98

Mega Dragalge podia substituir o Golurk.

calmgrove-98

É lento, tem 44 de Velocidade base e é do tipo Venenoso.

calmgrove-98

O problema é que também é do tipo Dragão, por isso não sei.

applelizard-61 OP

Que megas é que posso sequer usar?

calmgrove-98

32+ SpA Mega Dragalge Sludge Bomb vs. 32 HP / 0 SpD Sylveon: 138-164 (68.3 - 81.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
32+ SpA Fairy Feather Pixilate Sylveon Hyper Beam vs. 32 HP / 0 SpD Mega Dragalge: 118-141 (68.6 - 81.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

calmgrove-98

O Metagross também aprende Hammer Arm :p

applelizard-61 OP

Metagross de Trick Room

applelizard-61 OP

Parece divertido

calmgrove-98

Mega Aggron, Mega Camerupt (muito, muito forte), Mega Crabominable, Mega Drampa (com Instruct no Oranguru), Mega Steelix

calmgrove-98

Todos resultam em Trick Room.

applelizard-61 OP

O Crab funcionaria aqui?

calmgrove-98

Até Mega Chandelure, mas com Kingambit / Basc / Garchomp não sei.

applelizard-61 OP

Também considerei isso.

calmgrove-98

32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Ice Hammer vs. 2 HP / 0 Def Mega Charizard Y: 159-187 (102.5 - 120.6%) -- guaranteed OHKO

O Crab é uma besta.

calmgrove-98

32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Ice Hammer vs. 32 HP / 0 Def Sylveon: 183-216 (90.5 - 106.9%) -- 43.75% chance to OHKO

calmgrove-98

Aqui ficam alguns cálculos contra os Pokémon mais usados no jogo (Ataque e Defesa, colocando sempre o dano mais alto na Defesa):

Garchomp:
32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Ice Hammer vs. 2 HP / 0 Def Garchomp: 540-640 (291.8 - 345.9%) -- guaranteed OHKO
32 Atk Life Orb Garchomp Dragon Claw vs. 32 HP / 0 Def Mega Crabominable: 75-91 (36.7 - 44.6%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

Sinistcha:
32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Ice Hammer vs. 32 HP / 14+ Def Sinistcha: 204-240 (114.6 - 134.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO
0 SpA Sinistcha Shadow Ball vs. 32 HP / 0 SpD Mega Crabominable: 51-61 (25 - 29.9%) -- guaranteed 4HKO

Basc:
32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Ice Hammer vs. 2 HP / 0 Def Basculegion: 91-108 (46.1 - 54.8%) -- 60.55% chance to 2HKO
32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Ice Hammer vs. 2 HP / 0 Def Basculegion: 91-108 (46.1 - 54.8%) -- 60.55% chance to 2HKO

Gambit:
32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Mach Punch vs. 32 HP / 0 Def Kingambit: 180-216 (86.9 - 104.3%) -- 18.75% chance to OHKO
32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Drain Punch vs. 32 HP / 0 Def Kingambit: 336-396 (162.3 - 191.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO
32+ Atk Kingambit Iron Head vs. 32 HP / 0 Def Mega Crabominable: 132-156 (64.7 - 76.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Staraptor:
32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Ice Hammer vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Mega Staraptor: 258-306 (161.2 - 191.2%) -- guaranteed OHKO
32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Ice Hammer vs. +1 0 HP / 0 Def Mega Staraptor: 174-206 (108.7 - 128.7%) -- guaranteed OHKO
32 Atk Mega Staraptor Close Combat vs. 32 HP / 0 Def Mega Crabominable: 186-218 (91.1 - 106.8%) -- 43.75% chance to OHKO

Incin:
- 1 32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Drain Punch vs. 32 HP / 14 Def Incineroar: 126-150 (62.3 - 74.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Sitrus Berry recovery
0 Atk Incineroar Flare Blitz vs. 32 HP / 0 Def Mega Crabominable: 132-156 (64.7 - 76.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

calmgrove-98

Pelipper:
32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Ice Hammer vs. 2 HP / 0 Def Pelipper: 129-153 (94.1 - 111.6%) -- 62.5% chance to OHKO
32+ SpA Pelipper Hurricane vs. 32 HP / 0 SpD Mega Crabominable: 158-188 (77.4 - 92.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Sneasler:
32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Ice Hammer vs. 2 HP / 0 Def Sneasler: 195-229 (124.2 - 145.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO
32 Atk Sneasler Close Combat vs. 32 HP / 0 Def Mega Crabominable: 174-206 (85.2 - 100.9%) -- 12.5% chance to OHKO

Arch:
32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Drain Punch vs. 32 HP / 1 Def Archaludon: 156-186 (79.1 - 94.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
5+ SpA Archaludon Flash Cannon vs. 32 HP / 0 SpD Mega Crabominable: 116-140 (56.8 - 68.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Swamp:
32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Ice Hammer vs. 2 HP / 0 Def Mega Swampert: 120-142 (67.7 - 80.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Ice Hammer vs. 2 HP / 0 Def Mega Swampert: 120-142 (67.7 - 80.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

calmgrove-98

Basicamente, ganhas todos os 1v1, excepto contra o Gholdengo e o Delphox.

calmgrove-98

Bem, ganhas ao Delphox em Trick Room.

calmgrove-98

32+ Atk Iron Fist Mega Crabominable Ice Hammer vs. 1 HP / 1 Def Mega Delphox: 84-99 (55.6 - 65.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
32 SpA Mega Delphox Psychic vs. 32 HP / 0 SpD Mega Crabominable: 168-200 (82.3 - 98%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

calmgrove-98

O Gholdengo pode ser difícil de resolver; o único Pokémon que consegue tratar dele é o Rotom-H e provavelmente vais perdê-lo no início do jogo para passar ao segundo modo.

calmgrove-98

E o Pangoro não tem ataques do tipo Sombrio.

calmgrove-98

Sei que queres fazer uma equipa fora do meta, mas acho que Incineroar em vez de Pangoro podia ser uma boa opção. Ajuda-te contra o Gholdengo e o Delphox ao mesmo tempo.

calmgrove-98

E também podes usar um set ofensivo.

calmgrove-98

Na época passada usei Incineroar com Life Orb em Trick Room e fui invicto de Pokébola 4 até Master Ball 4.

calmgrove-98

As equipas de chuva também parecem difíceis de enfrentar. Rotom + Sceptile podem parecer uma boa opção, mas começar com Pelipper + Swampert pode estragar-te o ritmo.

calmgrove-98

O Swampert é mais rápido do que o Sceptile e dá-lhe Ice Punch. Já foi.

calmgrove-98

Rotom-Mow seria uma boa troca, mas depois ficavas com dois Pokémon do tipo Planta em campo.

calmgrove-98

Ainda assim, o único problema seria o Charizard Y no início; era suposto ganhares o 2v2 (5% de probabilidade de não o derrotares com um golpe).

32 SpA Rotom-Mow Discharge vs. 2 HP / 0 SpD Mega Charizard Y: 78-92 (50.3 - 59.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
32 SpA Mega Sceptile Dragon Pulse vs. 2 HP / 0 SpD Mega Charizard Y: 70-84 (45.1 - 54.1%) -- 40.63% chance to 2HKO

Mas o Charizard Y costuma ser jogado com Whimsicott ao lado, por isso, no fim de contas, será mais rápido do que os teus dois Pokémon.

calmgrove-98

O Rotom-Wash podia ajudar-te a lidar com o Swampert, etc. Podias proteger o Sceptile no turno 1 para ver se tem Ice Punch e depois usar Hydro Pump com o Rotom, causando 64 a 76% de dano.

calmgrove-98

Mas depois ficas preso ao Hydro Pump e tens Choice Scarf. Vais ter de trocar o Sceptile e mandar alguém que consiga aguentar um Ice Punch. Não é uma boa troca.

calmgrove-98

Portanto, acho que a melhor opção contra chuva é ignorar o modo de Velocidade e apostar numa versão totalmente de Trick Room: Trev, Mimikyu, Pangoro e Crab.

calmgrove-98

O Hurricane do Pelipper tem 6% de probabilidade de fazer OHKO (natureza Modesta, 32) e, obviamente, o Swampert acaba contigo.

calmgrove-98

Malanthwe (Trevenant) @ Sitrus Berry
Habilidade: Harvest
Nível: 50
Shiny: Sim
EVs: 32 HP / 5 Atk / 7 Def / 22 SpD
Natureza Adamant
- Trick Room
- Ally Switch
- Horn Leech
- Protect

Troca Curse por Protect e está feito.

calmgrove-98

Turno 1: Trevenant + Mimikyu

Trevenant usa Protect, Mimikyu usa Trick Room.
O adversário ataca o Trev com os dois Pokémon ou testa o Protect, e ficas com o ritmo do jogo.

calmgrove-98

Mas podem trocar o Swampert, por isso, no turno 2, vais ter de atacar o Pelipper com os dois.

calmgrove-98

5+ Atk Trevenant Horn Leech vs. 2 HP / 0 Def Pelipper: 52-63 (37.9 - 45.9%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
20+ Atk Mimikyu Play Rough vs. 2 HP / 0 Def Pelipper: 61-73 (44.5 - 53.2%) -- 33.2% chance to 2HKO

applelizard-61 OP

Gosto mesmo do Pangoro, porque acho que não preciso assim tanto do Incin, embora o Fake Out seja bastante viável. Talvez um Pangoro com Scrappy e Brick Break consiga derrotar o Gholdengo, e acho que o Darkest Lariat pode fazer OHKO ao Delphox.

applelizard-61 OP

32+ Atk Pangoro Brick Break vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Gholdengo: 144-170 (88.8 - 104.9%) -- 37.5% chance to OHKO

applelizard-61 OP

Ainda não tenho a certeza dos sets para ele.

applelizard-61 OP

32+ Atk Pangoro Darkest Lariat vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Gholdengo: 162-192 (100 - 118.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO

applelizard-61 OP

32+ Atk Pangoro Darkest Lariat vs. 32 HP / 11 Def Delphox-Mega: 182-216 (100 - 118.6%) -- guaranteed OHKO

applelizard-61 OP

Mas estou totalmente de acordo em mudar alguns EVs e ataques nos outros e acabar os sets dos restantes.

@applelizard-61 32+ Atk Pangoro Darkest Lariat vs. 32 HP / 11 Def Delphox-Mega: 182-216 (100 - 118.6%) -- guarantee…
applelizard-61 OP

Todos estes cálculos são com Life Orb.

calmgrove-98

O Pangoro aprende Darkest Lariat?

calmgrove-98

Nem sabia disso.

applelizard-61 OP

Sim, aprende.

applelizard-61 OP

Neste momento, acho que Darkest Lariat
Brick Break ou Close Combat
Detect
Parting Shot seriam boas opções para ele.

applelizard-61 OP

Com Lorn e Scrappy.

calmgrove-98

Então ficava assim?

calmgrove-98

Espera, para que era o investimento no Pangoro?

@calmgrove-98 Espera, para que era o investimento no Pangoro?
applelizard-61 OP

Não tenho a certeza, fui buscar isso ao Reddit.

calmgrove-98

Como fizeste o cálculo?

applelizard-61 OP

Não fiz, vi-o no Reddit.

applelizard-61 OP

Para o ginásio, estou a usar o máximo de Ataque e de Velocidade.

calmgrove-98

Porque as distribuições do Delphox são estranhas.

calmgrove-98

Até o cálculo do Gholdengo está errado.

calmgrove-98

O Delphox tem uma destas distribuições: 2/32/32 ou 19 HP e 1 Defesa.

calmgrove-98

Ou até 11 HP e 4 Defesa.

applelizard-61 OP

Só pus o máximo de Ataque no Pangoro e quis ver o que conseguia derrotar com um golpe.

calmgrove-98

2+ Atk Pangoro Darkest Lariat vs. 11 HP / 4 Def Mega Delphox: 162-192 (100.6 - 119.2%) -- guaranteed OHKO
2+ Atk Pangoro Darkest Lariat vs. 19 HP / 1 Def Mega Delphox: 168-198 (99.4 - 117.1%) -- 87.5% chance to OHKO
2+ Atk Pangoro Darkest Lariat vs. 1 HP / 0 Def Gholdengo: 134-162 (82.2 - 99.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

calmgrove-98

32+ Atk Pangoro Darkest Lariat vs. 1 HP / 0 Def Gholdengo: 162-192 (99.3 - 117.7%) -- 93.75% chance to OHKO

calmgrove-98

Pois, precisas de 32 de Ataque de qualquer maneira.

calmgrove-98

Ou podes reduzir isso se usares Life Orb.

calmgrove-98

Mas não há maneira de aguentar um Close Combat do Sneasler.

applelizard-61 OP

Provavelmente vou usar Life Orb, mas também quero que tenha alguma resistência.

@calmgrove-98 Mas não há maneira de aguentar um Close Combat do Sneasler.
applelizard-61 OP

Pois, não há mesmo maneira, pelo que sei.

calmgrove-98

Espera.

calmgrove-98

Com Life Orb talvez consigas.

calmgrove-98

32 Atk Sneasler Close Combat vs. 32 HP / 32 Def Pangoro: 188-224 (93 - 110.8%) -- 62.5% chance to OHKO

calmgrove-98

0+ Atk Life Orb Pangoro Darkest Lariat vs. 7 HP / 0 Def Gholdengo: 174-205 (102.9 - 121.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO

calmgrove-98

0+ Atk Life Orb Pangoro Darkest Lariat vs. 1 HP / 1 Def Mega Delphox: 213-252 (141 - 166.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO

applelizard-61 OP

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

applelizard-61 OP

Porque é que isto resulta?

calmgrove-98

Com Life Orb, consegues fazer OHKO tanto ao Gholdengo como ao Delphox sem investir em Ataque.

calmgrove-98

Assim podes pôr 32/32 em HP e Defesa.

calmgrove-98

Mas acho que Chople Berry e 32+ de Ataque seriam melhores.

applelizard-61 OP

Assim, causa dano suficiente?

calmgrove-98

32 Atk Sneasler Close Combat vs. 32 HP / 0 Def Chople Berry Pangoro: 127-150 (62.8 - 74.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

calmgrove-98

E podes usar Parting Shot.

calmgrove-98

Caso contrário, o Trev consegue tratar do Sneasler; também podes ensinar-lhe Will-O-Wisp.

applelizard-61 OP

Estava a ver se mudava alguns ataques.

applelizard-61 OP

Nos suportes.

applelizard-61 OP

Ainda assim, os únicos em que tenho 1000% de certeza de que os ataques e as distribuições estão bons são o Sceptile e o Rotom, uma combinação brutal. O Mimikyu pode levar uns ajustes, tal como o Trevenant, o Pangoro, obviamente, e o Crab.

calmgrove-98

Já agora, pensaste no Cofagrigus como setter de Trick Room?

applelizard-61 OP

Sim, pensei, mas gostei mais do Trevenant.

applelizard-61 OP

Queria construir a equipa com os meus favoritos.

applelizard-61 OP

Os únicos favoritos que queriam mesmo ser megas eram as megas.

calmgrove-98

O Cofa também tem acesso a Haze para o Staraptor e, claro, a Grass Knot para o Swampert, sem as desvantagens de uma fraqueza a Flying.

calmgrove-98

E Ally Switch, claro.

applelizard-61 OP

I don't think Staraptor threatens me that much with the fast mode

calmgrove-98

whim can tailwind turn 1 and staraptor brave birds your sceptile, but then rotom kills it

calmgrove-98

so you're fine

calmgrove-98

I just really like Mummy as an ability haha

calmgrove-98

getting rid of so many broken abilities, swift swim, unburden, etc

applelizard-61 OP

Yup I understand

applelizard-61 OP

I like Trevenant so much

calmgrove-98

he's one of my fav pokemon too haha

applelizard-61 OP

applelizard-61 OP

What do you think for now

ironpixel-34
  • Sludge Wave
ironpixel-34

sludge bomb better?

ironpixel-34

no splash damage

applelizard-61 OP

I was looking at it using Wave next to Aegi

applelizard-61 OP

As when Im agaisnt Fairy types Id rather have Aegi in the game over anyone else

ironpixel-34

yeah true

ironpixel-34

its the same logic as EQ can always protect the damage

applelizard-61 OP

Tho Im not really sure about the evs and some moves on this team

ironpixel-34

is Aegislash Calc'd

ironpixel-34

and Mimikyu

applelizard-61 OP

Used the last build of my own

ironpixel-34

ironpixel-34

just checking it looked like it so thats fine

applelizard-61 OP

On both tho if they can be improved im all for it

ironpixel-34

i think they are good i know my Aegi isnt fine tuned and he does the job for me

ironpixel-34

Pangoro EVs: 32 HP / 2 Atk / 32 Def

ironpixel-34

need all that def?

applelizard-61 OP

Survives CC from Sneasler and can still kill important targets tho thinking of switching moves

ironpixel-34

i see no issue with EVs then

ironpixel-34

the megas need their spreads how they are

applelizard-61 OP

Not sure on the Volcarona

applelizard-61 OP

I want it to set up tailwind but also deal some damage

applelizard-61 OP

The things is I want a trick room mega I want to play tailroom

@applelizard-61 The things is I want a trick room mega I want to play tailroom
sunnyquiver-34

you want a tailroom mega?

sunnyquiver-34

there are plenty of good options

@sunnyquiver-34 you want a tailroom mega?
applelizard-61 OP

For tailwind I got the two starters and I want to find trick room one tho Crab didn't work our for me

@applelizard-61 For tailwind I got the two starters and I want to find trick room one tho Crab didn't work our for…
sunnyquiver-34

tailroom or hard tr mega?

sunnyquiver-34

mega drampa can work for hard tr

sunnyquiver-34

tailwind you get options

applelizard-61 OP

For tailwind I'm sure I will do one of the starters

@sunnyquiver-34 tailwind you get options
applelizard-61 OP

Like which one

@applelizard-61 Like which one
sunnyquiver-34

like, anyone at around 70-90 speed

sunnyquiver-34

feraligatr can be cool

sunnyquiver-34

elektross with discarge can work, especially since base form can boost sceptile

applelizard-61 OP

I thought tailroom team is a team that has one trickroom mega and one that appreciates going faster

applelizard-61 OP

So yea

@applelizard-61 I thought tailroom team is a team that has one trickroom mega and one that appreciates going faster
sunnyquiver-34

tailroom teams usually consist of pokemon with akward speed teirs

sunnyquiver-34

scrafty is an example

sunnyquiver-34

one way to play it is with a pokemon that enjoys wind or room, and one that fits in both

sunnyquiver-34

like you said

applelizard-61 OP

Id like that

applelizard-61 OP

The one that appreciates trick room

sunnyquiver-34

but often times tailroom is for pokemon with akward speed, that you adjust depending on the matchup

@applelizard-61 The one that appreciates trick room
sunnyquiver-34

Drampa can be nice

sunnyquiver-34

helps with weather teams

sunnyquiver-34

mawile can also work

sunnyquiver-34

but there aren't many tr megas to work with

sunnyquiver-34

what matchups do you struggle with?

applelizard-61 OP

Mostly fire types that are not zard

@applelizard-61 Mostly fire types that are not zard
sunnyquiver-34

if you want to get spicy, mega slowbro looks cool

sunnyquiver-34

drampa as mentioned also resists fire

sunnyquiver-34

ampharos has a good matchup into them

sunnyquiver-34

rock slide mawile?

sunnyquiver-34

Golurk even?

sunnyquiver-34

plenty of cool option

applelizard-61 OP

Golurk and mawile were my favorite options at first and was looking at Slowbro even

@applelizard-61 Golurk and mawile were my favorite options at first and was looking at Slowbro even
sunnyquiver-34

slowbro is the funny guy. golurk is fun, but you need to keep matchups in mind, and mawile is probably statisticly the best

sunnyquiver-34

but hes no fun

sunnyquiver-34

:Angry:

applelizard-61 OP

What would Slowbros spreads and moveset be like

@applelizard-61 What would Slowbros spreads and moveset be like
sunnyquiver-34

there are many, and i mean MANY ways to run the guy

sunnyquiver-34

body press + iron defense walls

sunnyquiver-34

with slack off to heal

sunnyquiver-34

scald, calm mind and smth

sunnyquiver-34

not running any setup with just protect, body press, psychic, scald

sunnyquiver-34

running full on walls with amnesia, iron defense, slack off, body press

sunnyquiver-34

setting up tr itself

sunnyquiver-34

theres a lot

sunnyquiver-34

what do you want to run with the guy?

sunnyquiver-34

he also gets coverage for some guys since hes from gen 1

sunnyquiver-34

ice beam, flamethrower, grass knot, shadow ball, tri attack, focus blast

applelizard-61 OP

I would run it a bit offensively

@applelizard-61 I would run it a bit offensively
sunnyquiver-34

ooh he gets nasty plot

applelizard-61 OP

Set up does sound good

@applelizard-61 Set up does sound good
sunnyquiver-34

Slowbro-Mega @ Slowbronite
Ability: Oblivious
Level: 50
EVs: 32 HP / 15 SpA / 19 SpD
Quiet Nature
- Nasty Plot
- Scald
- Psychic
- Protect

sunnyquiver-34

so theres this

sunnyquiver-34

Slowbro-Mega @ Slowbronite
Ability: Regenerator
Level: 50
EVs: 32 HP / 2 Def / 32 SpD
Sassy Nature
- Scald
- Iron Defense
- Body Press
- Protect
Something like this

sunnyquiver-34

the guy gets crazy coverage too, depending on some matchups like swamp and garchomp, you can adjust coverage

sunnyquiver-34

you already have rain dance on volcarona, so scalds might get scary

sunnyquiver-34

its bulk is already hard to stop

sunnyquiver-34

slowking has serious potential

sunnyquiver-34

(i might wanna use the guy now lol)

sunnyquiver-34

he does

sunnyquiver-34

i scald on my tr rain team

sunnyquiver-34

hes one of the few mon that kept scald after the redistribution

sunnyquiver-34

yes

sunnyquiver-34

lmao, i almost thought my slowbro was glitched or smth

applelizard-61 OP

Will probably run more offensive one

applelizard-61 OP

Tho I think making it bulky is good

@applelizard-61 Tho I think making it bulky is good
sunnyquiver-34

yeah for sure specially bulky. the guy needs to be able to setup first

sunnyquiver-34

ychu is difficult for him, but you bring sceptile to those matches

sunnyquiver-34

dude, i wish i had your luck

applelizard-61 OP

Now I just gotta get Slowbro and train it

applelizard-61 OP

As I am using it as a replacement for now

sunnyquiver-34

exactly, i wish i had your luck, yesterday while trying to get a manetric, i spent 400 tickets, all my electric tickets, and 10 k vp

sunnyquiver-34

i gotta get a second farig

sunnyquiver-34

i wanna add slowbro to a team

@sunnyquiver-34 i wanna add slowbro to a team
applelizard-61 OP

Hehe

sunnyquiver-34

at least this was only 3rd try

applelizard-61 OP

Will get it soon

sunnyquiver-34

alr, mine is ready. this team will either preform amazingly or horridly

applelizard-61 OP

I'll get mine soon

sunnyquiver-34

my slowbro is apparently a god? dodged leaf storm and matcha gacha

applelizard-61 OP

So what was the offensive set

applelizard-61 OP

Was playing cards didn't pay tooo much attention

@applelizard-61 So what was the offensive set
sunnyquiver-34

Nasty plot, scald, psychic, and protect

sunnyquiver-34

max hp, a lot or max into special defense

sunnyquiver-34

remandier ig goes into special attack

applelizard-61 OP

Will put a lot but not all in spdef

@applelizard-61 Will put a lot but not all in spdef
sunnyquiver-34

thats also fine

applelizard-61 OP

Put that together

applelizard-61 OP

Do you think that now it's better to run physical or special aegi

@applelizard-61 Do you think that now it's better to run physical or special aegi
sunnyquiver-34

i usually like running special sets over physical sets because you dodge burns, intim, etc

sunnyquiver-34

you do lose good shadow sneak though, but i personally like special more

applelizard-61 OP

I mean he has great attack and special tho I gotta drop wide guard

applelizard-61 OP

But I don't have the best coverage with his stab

applelizard-61 OP

Also should I run the fastest Sceptile or is this enough

@applelizard-61 Also should I run the fastest Sceptile or is this enough
sunnyquiver-34

i personally think you should just put enough to outspeed delphox, or maybe loppunny if you want to

sunnyquiver-34

my slowbro is a god, this mf refuses to get hit by matcha gacha

applelizard-61 OP

I think this is fast enough for that

sunnyquiver-34

Im loving slowbro

applelizard-61 OP

I'll play it soon

@applelizard-61 Also should I run the fastest Sceptile or is this enough
brightkernel-65

Unburden Sceptile is the fastest

applelizard-61 OP

Used both had fun but pivoted for thee reasons

@applelizard-61 https://pokepast.es/f2db7691624284de
applelizard-61 OP

Here is the team I'm currently using but not having too much success

applelizard-61 OP

Tho there is a version that was changed

applelizard-61 OP

Used it as well that's why Sceptile is 23 speed

applelizard-61 OP

Which one

applelizard-61 OP

Sandstorm increases spdef of only rock types tho neither of those 3 take damage from it

applelizard-61 OP

But I wouldn't use anyone who abuses sand tho rain can be abused to weaken fire

applelizard-61 OP

I was looking at politoed as an option as it has encore and status moves

applelizard-61 OP

Because I think my team is gonna be mega weak to fire

applelizard-61 OP

So what would you do for the team I'm interested in your take

applelizard-61 OP

Depends sometimes it just doesn't work and I'm solely dependant on Mimi

applelizard-61 OP

That is on the team

applelizard-61 OP

This is a bit outdated team

This is the most recent and the one I'm using

applelizard-61 OP

Sure brother sure

applelizard-61 OP

Yup but wanted to use it so it got that role

applelizard-61 OP

Don't really like using them honestly tho that's why I even started this team building as I think playing balance with trick room is best for me

merrykitten-85

Mimikyu isn’t weak to dark types, right ?

@merrykitten-85 Mimikyu isn’t weak to dark types, right ?
applelizard-61 OP

It was a mistake I have mental herb on it

applelizard-61 OP

I think that as a team it doesn't really work

applelizard-61 OP

Sounds good to me but how would the team change around it

applelizard-61 OP

Don't really like Raichu tbh

applelizard-61 OP

I was looking to revamp team a bit but still have some of the mons I love

applelizard-61 OP

do you maybe think that having Mega Dnite with Politoed as fast mode next to trick room duo or trio

applelizard-61 OP

With one glue in between

applelizard-61 OP

Two with the rest i think I can add 3 mons

applelizard-61 OP

That I love

applelizard-61 OP

And the trick room mega being mawile

applelizard-61 OP

With that core 3 which ones you think could work on the team

applelizard-61 OP

Tho I do think that than Dnite should be special

applelizard-61 OP

Noted sire

applelizard-61 OP

What about Galarian one

applelizard-61 OP

Slowking I mean

applelizard-61 OP

Yup yup okay it's water/psychic

applelizard-61 OP

Or am I bugging

applelizard-61 OP

Hmm had more experience playing with galarian Slowbro

quickjewel-96

This still most updated?

applelizard-61 OP

This is the last one I used but I will probably build a new team with some other mons mainly being Dnite and politoad

quickjewel-96

Okay I can switch up to maybe helping you make a new team or do you want me to critique that team

@quickjewel-96 Okay I can switch up to maybe helping you make a new team or do you want me to critique that team
applelizard-61 OP

Both honestly

applelizard-61 OP
quickjewel-96

Alright I'll start with a critique cause fresh teams take a little bit of time, but poli and dnite is a strong start

ivoryunicorn-80

this is the team

ivoryunicorn-80

ivoryunicorn-80

very cool team ngl
but the tw mode is bad
u have floette good tw swepper
volcarona good tw setter
aegislash bad tw support too slow
and then what?

ivoryunicorn-80

u add mimi?

ivoryunicorn-80

u could change floette for maw and chnage volcarona for a tr sweeper

ivoryunicorn-80

like gambit

@applelizard-61 ![image](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1538843794261414008/1543679090467279028/Screenshot_…
quickjewel-96

So I'm assuming you are going for both a tailwind and trick room with the idea for this set. Crabominable is a strong choice for being a trick room sweeper, however it is very susceptible to fighting mons and sun teams, which generally have both Sneasler and Charizard. You don't have an answer into them at all and crabominable generally prefers to sit in the snow to bulk it up. Realistically, reuniclus is not the life orb sweeper you should be using. Hatterene life orb is more dominant in every way.

Because you are using a tailwind and trick room mode, you are stuck in a way that you can't reliably set up either. There is no pressure to force trick room to go up and you are stuck outside of trick room on a super slow team.

For your tailwind team you've got kind of a similar issue. Volcarona is not fast enough to be a reliable tailwind setter and you're not threatening enough to be able to get it up safely.

@quickjewel-96 So I'm assuming you are going for both a tailwind and trick room with the idea for this set. Crabom…
ivoryunicorn-80

U could change e floette for hatreene and torkol for volcarona

quickjewel-96

Idk if I would want torkoal and crab on the same team. Crab on its own hates the sun. I would either lean into crab and do a snow setter or I'd lean into torkoal and get rid of the crab

quickjewel-96

And then get rid of reuniclus for farig. It's better in every way

@quickjewel-96 Idk if I would want torkoal and crab on the same team. Crab on its own hates the sun. I would eithe…
ivoryunicorn-80

yeah

ivoryunicorn-80

https://pokepast.es/cb20c2d025d563e8

ivoryunicorn-80

im crazy

quickjewel-96

For dnite and politoed, you would definitely want to give strong support for dnite. A good way to do that is sinistcha. Hospitality gives it the chance to reactivate multiscale and it loses one of its main weaknesses to fire by being in the rain. Farig and Raichu are a problem so having life orb garchomp is good to be able to threaten big damage, however it gives you a double weakness to fairy, so now we are probably looking at bringing in gambit. I'd round out the team with an alternative mode to Dragonite with mega swampert to lean into rain or with mega metagross to provide an answer into teams with strong fairy types

@ivoryunicorn-80 https://pokepast.es/cb20c2d025d563e8

applelizard-61 OP

Honestly I wanted to try to build around my favorites but I have felt how bad the team actually is and that is why I'm here. I was looking to get a fresh start and look at the more popular options while still trying to preserve some of my favorites. That's why I was looking at Dnite plus politoed as Dnite is very strong and appreciates rain that most mons I like loves to play under as they hate fire. Them being Aegislash and Mawile as my idea went. So that would give me the core 4 of Dnite, Politoed, Aegislash, Mawile and trying to fit in at least one of my favorites tho not sure which as the whole idea of the thread is that

applelizard-61 OP

Honestly I do love having options of both trick room and tailwind and Dnite gives me that choice with it being able to set it up for himself, also I adore playing trick room as well as most games I do go for trick room being either to clean up or remove mons at the start

quickjewel-96

Big problem with Aegislash is it just gets eaten alive by the ghost types in the meta and Charizard makes it disappear. Mawile kind of similar, Charizard makes it barely usable and Garchomp finishes it off

quickjewel-96

They have a lot of overlapping weaknesses that hurt right now. In the future they may be more viable but there is a reason they aren't meta

applelizard-61 OP

Is there any chance then for Pangoro, Mimikyu or Volcarona on it or Rotom

applelizard-61 OP

I think two of these could work

applelizard-61 OP

Or Mamoswine I know he is good into few of the mtea threats rn

quickjewel-96

Pangoro and volcarona not really. Mimikyu or rotom maybe in place of sinistcha

applelizard-61 OP

Can we find a niche for Pangoto

quickjewel-96

It fits really nicely in the trash can

quickjewel-96

Its main problems are it's super slow, not bulky at all and very weak into fighting and quad weak to fairy

quickjewel-96

Fairy is definitely the worst thing to be quad weak to. Only thing worse is fire lol

applelizard-61 OP

Damn

applelizard-61 OP

So im really that unlucky that most of my mons dont have even a nicke

applelizard-61 OP

niche

quickjewel-96

It's not that they don't have a niche, it's more that they just are really unfortunate to bring into the meta which has some decently powerful sweepers

quickjewel-96

Like I'm sure there is a world where you could focus sash pangoro and get it to pop off

quickjewel-96

But definitely not now lol

applelizard-61 OP

So I just have to wait for regulation to change

applelizard-61 OP

So in 10 days I can hope to do something with it

quickjewel-96

Maybe but I wouldn't expect it unless we get a really strong ghost type

applelizard-61 OP

What goes type can even save it or can a strong steel type help

quickjewel-96

Honestly I don't know hahaha. I'm sorry it's hard to make pangoro feel okay

applelizard-61 OP

I mean when I used it previously I was using Roseli berry with max Hp and it could survive some hits

quickjewel-96

Yeah you could probably make it survive something but it is weak to flying, fairy and fighting and that's just a really unfortunate three right now

applelizard-61 OP

Yea I know

applelizard-61 OP

But I think with some 5 we can do it

applelizard-61 OP

With the current 4 and it

applelizard-61 OP

Tho I dont know who the 6th can be

applelizard-61 OP

https://pokepast.es/056037130e7903eb

applelizard-61 OP
applelizard-61 OP

Here is my idea

applelizard-61 OP

Tho built it in national dex format

quickjewel-96

Tyrantrum existing as a mascot

applelizard-61 OP

Didnt know what to put on it honestly

@applelizard-61 https://pokepast.es/056037130e7903eb
sunnyquiver-34

honestly, i think this would work better with peli over tyrantrum. rain looks amazing with this

@sunnyquiver-34 honestly, i think this would work better with peli over tyrantrum. rain looks amazing with this
applelizard-61 OP

I hate the bird thats why I want Tyrantrum

@applelizard-61 I hate the bird thats why I want Tyrantrum
sunnyquiver-34

then politoad :smile:

sunnyquiver-34

but i also think this works

sunnyquiver-34

Tyrantrum @ Focus Sash
Ability: Rock Head
Level: 50
EVs: 32 HP / 32 Atk / 2 SpD
Brave Nature
- Head Smash
- Close Combat
- Protect

Tyrantrum @ Focus Sash
Ability: Strong Jaw
Level: 50
EVs: 32 HP / 32 Atk / 2 SpD
Brave Nature
- Ice Fang
- Psychic Fangs
- Protect
- Rock Slide

@sunnyquiver-34 then politoad
applelizard-61 OP

Was thinking about that and mega Dnite but settled on Mega Giri and Dozo

@applelizard-61 Was thinking about that and mega Dnite but settled on Mega Giri and Dozo
sunnyquiver-34

both dozo and goli like the rain

@sunnyquiver-34 or this Tyrantrum @ Focus Sash Ability: Strong Jaw Level: 50 EVs: 32 HP / 32 Atk / 2 SpD Brave Natu…
applelizard-61 OP

Which one do you think fits better

@sunnyquiver-34 both dozo and goli like the rain
applelizard-61 OP

Yup I know

applelizard-61 OP

Maybe 3 mega team?

@applelizard-61 Which one do you think fits better
sunnyquiver-34

i like more instnt damage with rock head

sunnyquiver-34

but if you need more coverage, do the other one

applelizard-61 OP

As two of them don't have to mega evolve

@sunnyquiver-34 i like more instnt damage with rock head
applelizard-61 OP

It's 85 percent yes?

applelizard-61 OP

Accuracy

@applelizard-61 As two of them don't have to mega evolve
sunnyquiver-34

even mega goli likes rain. nulifies its 1 weakness

@applelizard-61 It's 85 percent yes?
sunnyquiver-34

80 sadly

sunnyquiver-34

though its a nuke

@sunnyquiver-34 though its a nuke
applelizard-61 OP

Agree

sunnyquiver-34

off stab and 121 base attack

@sunnyquiver-34 even mega goli likes rain. nulifies its 1 weakness
applelizard-61 OP

3 team mega does sound good

applelizard-61 OP

With a tw setting dnite

applelizard-61 OP

What do you think

@applelizard-61 With a tw setting dnite
sunnyquiver-34

that sounds cool

sunnyquiver-34

but maybe on another team? that sounds like a whole other idea compared to this one lol

applelizard-61 OP

3 different megas

applelizard-61 OP

As would say 2 2 2

applelizard-61 OP

Doesn't matter which 6 you bring it can work

applelizard-61 OP

Has more weaknesses than the first team but it can work

quickjewel-96

Wait no that's not how 2-2-2 works lmao

applelizard-61 OP

Than I am wrong

quickjewel-96

2-2-2 HAS to have dozo giri lol

applelizard-61 OP

Ohhhhh

applelizard-61 OP

That makes sense

quickjewel-96

There are rare exceptions but dozo giri is the 2-2-2

quickjewel-96

So just remember that

applelizard-61 OP

Noted sir

applelizard-61 OP

And what are the rare exceptions if I may ask

quickjewel-96

Perfectly synergizing pairs

applelizard-61 OP

Noted on that

applelizard-61 OP

And also quick question what are your thoughts on the team as well

quickjewel-96

Generally when a new regulation comes out, it is super hard to tell.

This is doubly so with M-C because we have no idea what tatsugiri will be getting as his ability, nor golisopod with certainty. We also don't know what moves Pokemon may be losing or any other nerfs they may receive.

Also tyrantrum is never good unfortunately

quickjewel-96

We don't even know for sure if we are getting the dozo giri combo

quickjewel-96

It's pure speculation based on a balloon

applelizard-61 OP

Understood sir
