mellowquiver-61 OP

I maybe a masochist but this place shall be where I build a team with each mega mons as a solo mega. And maybe you will be of great help in fixing them.
First team coming soon.

Why expanding force instead of psychic and TR? My guess is to undo TR, but you could also delete them with a helping hand

rapidcipher-81

How

@youngxenon-79 eforce on farig locks out opposing psyspam entirely thanks to imprison
fleetvalley-28

It’s a gamble, and if you really want to stop psyspam, just get a dark type that makes synergy with the team and done

fleetvalley-28

It’s a neat strat, just a gamble

youngxenon-79

whats a gamble

fleetvalley-28

Since you would need psyspam comun enough and not have an answer for it that makes better synergy

fleetvalley-28

Or want to make your own options

@fleetvalley-28 Since you would need psyspam comun enough and not have an answer for it that makes better synergy
youngxenon-79

well psyspam is pretty common if you think about it

youngxenon-79

i still don't understand what you mean by its a gamble

@youngxenon-79 well psyspam is pretty common if you think about it
fleetvalley-28

Give or take. It’s comun, but gambit is running the game and rain is the best strat rn, so it’s not as comun as it can be

youngxenon-79

even without running into trickroom and psyspam teams

youngxenon-79

farigs only job isnt to block psyspam

youngxenon-79

it sets up trickroom, can output consistent decent damage with 80 base power eforce to take down mons like sneasler or and boosts damage output with helping hsnd

youngxenon-79

i dont think their farigiraf set will flop

@youngxenon-79 i still don't understand what you mean by its a gamble
fleetvalley-28

I feel that way since you could use those two slots for something else. Not saying it can’t work, but just it’s gambling into having to play against psyspam in order to get its full power

fleetvalley-28

Since it was made for that

youngxenon-79
