ironpixel-34 OP

So I am trying to cook a bulky snow team for a member of the discord.

We are looking for a bulky almost stall based team using snow or trickroom if we can
Here are a few cooks ive made looking for advise/changes

Key concepts for the team:
BULKY VERY BULKY
healing where we can such as life dew or Slack Off

Im considering set up and a protect the Queen style build

Mega Snowbro - my fav so far

ironpixel-34 OP

Oh ez same time zone ish

ironpanther-10

i played a very bulky snow team in SV Reg A

ironpanther-10

let me find me

@ironpanther-10 i played a very bulky snow team in SV Reg A
ironpixel-34 OP

Yes plzzzz

ironpanther-10

I didnt save anymore
But I remember I used Slowking with Chilly Reception
Abowmasnow
Gagarnacl
Hatterene
Amoonguss
and I believe my last Pokémom was actually Scarf Great Tusk for endgames

ironpanther-10

Or Garchomp

ironpanther-10

a ground type for sure

ironpixel-34 OP

Chomp In this meta anyways

ironpixel-34 OP

Ty ill see how we can incorporate it

ironpixel-34 OP

I like the hatterene

ironpixel-34 OP

What did she run

ironpixel-34 OP

Typical tr supp?

ironpanther-10

Abowmasnow might actually be a somewhat decent option against rain teams, mostly bc of swampert

ironpixel-34 OP

Yess

ironpixel-34 OP

Chomp for scary fire types

@ironpixel-34 Typical tr supp?
ironpanther-10

Psychic Dazzling Tr Protect maybe Life Orb

ironpixel-34 OP

Plus milo or prim

ironpanther-10

I used Aurora Veil Blizzard Giga Drain on Abowmasnow, but you can use Earth Power, to have a chance against steel and fire pokémon

ironpanther-10

probably Mega Abowmasnow with Earth Power, its not gonna be a very bulky team without aurora veil, but i feel like Mega, to reset to snow might round, with earthpower to use its offensive stat is better rn

ironpanther-10

slowking can also use chilly reception to reset to snow and swap out
if you like it you can use regenerator, i believe thats what i did

ironpixel-34 OP

I love Regenerator slowking sm

royalpixel-76

soooo tldr forrr siee??

ironpixel-34 OP

Ez lead with froslass
Mega use aura veil

2nd mon either aegislash, Sylveon or chomp depending on opponent team

Aegi kills fairies and psychic

Sylvie kills dragons

Chomp kills fire dragons poison steel

9/10 times froslass spams blizzard unless theres a ghost or psychic then hit shadow ball

Scrafty hits draining punch to heal damage delt

Nintales comes when you cant bring froslass and want scrafty instead.

You want aurora veil up as much as possible because it half's the damage delt to you when snow is up

Nintales is basically ice sylveon

royalpixel-76
