Rllllyyy want to make a team work with espathra
And mega pyroar plus sun plus a couple boosts literally sweeps full teams by itself. I made it to top 25k so far and seem to do well but i was wondering if you guys have any tips
Can you share the spreads?
This is all my opinion (mind you im kinds dogshi but yk..)
- I wouldnt run eq and stomping on chomp esp when you have rilla
- Roar seems misplaced, put a single target move considering youre decently weak to armar psyspam
- Sub is iffy on raptor youre basically sacrificing 25% for a free turn (unless youre running a bulky raptor then i think its fine coz it wont break as easily) i think prot is better
- A bulky floette could cause some issues if positioned correctly however you should have enough tools to handle it ftmp
Id only run sub on raptor if you have redirection
ya ok
hmmm i have stomping and eq bcs of rilla, stomping doesn’t get cut by grassy terrain and yes lol i def need protect oops
anndddd roar idk i’ve never clicked it feel like if they have wide guard i can roar them out or trick room or perish trap??
maybe single target would be good tho
Run timid on whims
also yes i get dicked by like salamnce and floette lolllll which is are so popular
what’s the point
Yea im not sold on chomp for this reason
very true
Faster encores
Otherwise you always lose the tie
If we take off chomp
You get dicked by yaichu
I wonder if metagross
I like it icl
Gengar hole does open up a little
But its not unplayable
More a skill check
nahhh should be aight can’t see mega being a problem

Nah kust base
Run like ebelt spdef or something
ermmm idk
