Rate My M Venusaur VGC Team
Summary
On Pokémon Champions | VGC Battles & Tournaments this announcement requests feedback for a bulky-offense M Venusaur team. The post explains double pivot strategy, Giga Drain recovery, a Farigiraf Trick Room option, and TTar as a special wall check, asking for matchup improvements and optimization tips.
Is there anything I could improve? M Venusaur is such a good pokemon right now, and i have found success with this team in particular.
Anything that is bad?
Bulky Offense team that tries to get into the best position possible at all times, hence the double pivot. My idea is that if that M Venusaur is very good at getting positive trades of damage due to its huge bulk + Giga Drasin recovery. In case i find a matchup that punishes me for going second (like rock slide spam), i go with Farigiraf in order to setup Trick Room, or in matchups with a ton of priority. Most games are Incineroar + Another mon, usually M Venusaur or Farig. I cant emphasize enough how much pivot this teams allows for, and how much impact it gains
when i first tried Ttar, i used a diff team, and a lot of Low Kick Gambit and Low Kick Ttar were running aroung. It also lets u survive Kommo-o Aura Sphere in the sand
i know it doesnt let u survive Sneasler CC tho
it survives even without berry
berry allows u to receive two Aura Spheres from Arch if its modest 17 SPs
so like 178 SpA mons
its mostly the sand that allows it
ttar is here bc its a special wall (sort of) and also bc its good into flying / psychic types
that are usually bad into Venusaur
ok
most of thems go for a stat bump, garchomp, saur, rotom-W etc
Venusaur can take a jolly aerodactyl Dual WWingbeat, and Non Modest delphox psychic
Garchomp outspeed M Aerodactyl after 1 scale shot
Incineroar takes a bunch of hits from most top 10 mons, garchomp and floette specially
Ttar had to take an attack from floette, its calced for that
i dont remember all of them
but the general idea of what i did i do have
also incin can kill frail M Gengar and M Froslass w Flare Blitz / DL
incin also outspeeds -Speed sinistcha
and farig always koed sneasler w psychic even if bulky as far as i remember, while taking on a kingambit attack and M Floette
Ttar takes two/three HV depending on the Sylveon, Venusaur Walls it, the rest dont like it
garchomp specially
but Rotom-W can also take 2 bc of Sitrus
Incin doesnt enjoy it cause of lack of recovery
oh yeah hold on
okay Ttar can die by Hyper Beam, its a 62,3% of OHKOing
rotom-W can die 37.5% of the time
hyper beam is bad yeah
Venusaur still walls it
and 2HKOs it
Incin can take one HYper Beam
59% of 3HKOing
w HV
Incin aint that bad into Sylveon considering the extra Speed allows me to Parting shot and nerf it
and flare blitz doing a 2HKO as far as im aware (idk how physically bulky sylveon sets are)
Cybertron when i find u
my gameplan is Garchomp + Venusaur and then double up into it, doing damage on both sides, so that it cant wall off all the damage with one screen
i have a friend that played a ton of sableye and showed me how hard i would lose if i dont remove it fast
I would love to punch sableye irl
such an annoying mon
true
and it will encore u back
oh yeah
farigiraf is somewhat of a check to it
due to armor tail
it cant quash thru
True
that why its a somewhat
it allows u to play safer into it without fearing encore
or disable
or whatever bs it has
thx!
Shinka what happened to your name
It's almost like the language changed
Oh that kanji means circus dog
Thank God I have been using Duolingo long enough to know if I think it's derogatory im reading it right
And has amazing nicks
thx a lot
and yeah the nicknames are indeed songs although i did change some
like Venusaur was once "Green Day" and Farigiraf used to be a Corviknight called "Black Betty"
im still figuring out another name that the garchomp could have
cause his nickname isnt the full song name
After playing for a while, i think Ttar could be changed for another mon, since the team gets chipped down by sand. I want a pokemon that is good into Psychic/Flying types, and ofc it would be better if it was a physical attacker. Any ideas for that 6th mon?
or maybe give ttar a diff set
it just doesnt give me as much value as i expected
oh then maybe i suck
