Yeah garchomp would be a nightmare because inmunity

warmxenon-39 OP

Yeah I usually have trouble against those teams

warmxenon-39 OP

Should I switch out a team member for better speed control?

warmxenon-39 OP

Ok I see how taunt can be a huge benefit, thank you for the advice

warmxenon-39 OP

If I were to change some members, what would you recommend?

warmxenon-39 OP

Kk I see what your saying. Just now I was thinking about talonflame, with gyarados as a second mega. Do you think thats a good idea? I was thinking aegislash too but it would probably not work well with tailwind

warmxenon-39 OP

Kk i’ll most like keep the dragon steel fairy core 👍🏾

warmxenon-39 OP

I’d say I like the current team more but that can be a consideration

warmxenon-39 OP

Also from what your saying mega gyarados doesn’t add much value and regular gyarados is overall better?

warmxenon-39 OP

Rn I only have talonflame but if a aerodactyl shows up in recruit i’ll try it out

warmxenon-39 OP

Prob gonna run brave bird, will o wisp, tailwind and protect

warmxenon-39 OP

Kk I see 👍🏾
