Garchomp + Orthworm VGC Team Breakdown
Summary
In the Pokémon Champions | VGC Battles & Tournaments server, members are discussing a high-performing Masterball rank team centered around Garchomp and Orthworm. The discussion covers strategic synergies, including Talonflame tailwind setups, Victreebel coverage, and specific tech choices like Rock Slide for Charizard threats. This breakdown provides valuable insights for players looking to optimize their competitive VGC team compositions.
The main core is garchomp + orthworm since eq heals him and allows him to set up safely
Alternatively talonflame can lead with garchomp to tailwind n allat
Victrebel deals with charizard and strong water types
Then sneasler and sinistcha are pretty basic support

worry seeds against contrary?
bc you are not that fast its gonna be hard getting it off at time, no?
Worry seed was kinda my scuffed up answer for staraptor, was kinda meh and i had to predict but could hypothetically work
Was usually a bust tho lol
It also helped with stuff like sableye tho which was nice
thats what I got
slight adjustment and a nice coverage mega
you dont have to use greninja, but it counters Pokemon like bascu, garchomp, dnite, frosslass, Ceruledge etc

covers alot of victreebels weaknesses
you can keep no item acrobatics,
but I do like max speed dual wingbeat, bc you do outspeed whimsicott that way and can stop it from setting up tailwind (if it hits and not bulky)
but you can keep your talonflame set
i like yours set, it suprised me at high elo earlier
Ooooh i like
i know suckerpunch is a physical move, but it can finish off low hp fast attackers yk
I might keep my current talonflame because flare blitz is just rlly good into a lot of Steel/Ice types
I get u
also i added rockslide garchomp max speed to threaten chari Y with OHKOs
it gives your victreebel more space to deal high damage rather than just dying
Thats actually hella smart
I had stomping tantrum because i originally didnt have protect on victreebel and sneasler but now that they have it its kinda worthless lmao
Im 100% swapping that
also greninja can become a nice threat, even without mega, bc if it gets a KO
it boosts its SpA and Speed once
so you could finish a pokemon with greninja, get the boost and mega evolve it afterwards and gain the protean ability
How did you make masterball
Im just cracked
Believable
Plus no one knows how to respect victreebel so i was able to cheese a lot of hard matchups
I use this team to live trol my way to mball or something
The amount of charizards and metagross who killed themselves by one shotting vbell is insane
Ppl do be that stupid
most people dont know about innards out, since it was a long lost signature ability on a unrelevant pokemon
but I do love pyukumuku
Yeah that and Vbell is kinda niche too
I dont think ive faced a single one
i used one, but I did not have much sucess with it
Yeah hes not great into a lot of matchups
Ive probs left him out of a good 30-40% of games atleast
