Messing around with this pretty braindead team right now, still in testing phase so I'd like some feedback. Yes it's obviously inspired by regional winning teams following the norm of modest Blastoise and QG Jolly sneasler but actually being a more offensive delphox and an imprison sinistcha. Incineroar is here as a leftover from the original team it genuinely sucks into the meta nowadays and everyone counter leads it. Considering something for milotic/rotom/bulky waters/ spread spam match ups since both my emperors struggle into it. Genuinely Chesnaught might be a call but I would not like double fighting and I appreciate a second fake out because it's protect the king yk. Also needs to fix perish song mu even if it ain't that baddd. https://pokepast.es/cfcb86dc158fb1a5 enjoy the brainless gameplay.

If they had matcha gotcha I think the outcome would have been completely different

silvercactus-53 OP

I can stall out trick room and win with Sneasler anyw

silvercactus-53 OP

Since it'd have to drop tect

cleverinbox-49

I mean maybe

cleverinbox-49

Does matcha gatcha + moonblast ko sneasler? I'd assume not
