Milotic Switch: Bulky Coil Support Ideas

Summary

In Pokémon Champions | VGC Battles & Tournaments this announcement discusses swapping bulky Basculegion for Milotic and explores Leftovers vs Sitrus Berry, Coil Milotic builds, and alternative support like Light Screen, Scald, Icy Wind and Life Dew. The thread asks for spread and matchup advice versus physical and special threats and how Milotic pairs with Kommoo and other team members.

hey guys so I came across this team on a video and decided to replace the sitrus berry basc for something like lefties bulky coil milotic, combining that with scovillain at the start is probably so annoying and I feel like it cooks

grandnoodle-82 OP

any ideas for other supplemental changes to support that? that would nullify physically offensive threats but what about special mons what can I do about that

grandnoodle-82 OP

ah ty

grandnoodle-82 OP

not sure if id be lacking a lot of offense but seeing as how its bulky basculegion im not giving up too much

grandnoodle-82 OP

it also doesn’t necessarily need to be coil milotic

grandnoodle-82 OP

maybe calm mind?

grandnoodle-82 OP

nvm it dosent get calm mind

grandnoodle-82 OP

grandnoodle-82 OP

grandnoodle-82 OP

hmm how come? I feel like mega aero gives for a more offensive mode

rapidcipher-81

Is this that tournament team

grandnoodle-82 OP

I believe so yes

grandnoodle-82 OP

I saw it on a video

grandnoodle-82 OP

but my idea is to add an annoying milotic

grandnoodle-82 OP

instead of basc

grandnoodle-82 OP

Ok do idecided to keep lefties on milotic

grandnoodle-82 OP

Sorry

grandnoodle-82 OP

I kept lefties

grandnoodle-82 OP

on kommoo

grandnoodle-82 OP

and sitrus milotic

grandnoodle-82 OP
grandnoodle-82 OP

so this is the team just that instead of basculegion im running sitrus berry milotic

grandnoodle-82 OP

but i need an annoying spread that can both enable my team and be annoying

grandnoodle-82 OP

I was thinking something niche like light screen to assist with special defense but idk if just a simple scald icy wind protect life dew will do since life dew can help with kommoo

spreads

grandnoodle-82 OP

Im not sure if im lacking offense thats the only thing

grandnoodle-82 OP

not sure if i should change sneasler to max attack

grandnoodle-82 OP

maybe even sash max attack

grandnoodle-82 OP

rotom is also an option instead of milo but eh

grandnoodle-82 OP

maybe a more offensive milotic might be the play

silvercactus-53

I do see the appeal

silvercactus-53

But I would think it shouldn't be coil

silvercactus-53

Like recover tect ice beam scald probably

silvercactus-53

Since you already wall physical Mons after burn

grandnoodle-82 OP

ahh okioki, wouldnt life dew be more effective to further enable kommoo?

grandnoodle-82 OP

also how much should I invest into spa

grandnoodle-82 OP
