Slowbro + Golurk Trick Room Team Review
Summary
In Pokémon Champions | VGC Battles & Tournaments this announcement breaks down a Slowbro + Golurk hard Trick Room team. It covers movesets and choices like thunderbolt vs will-o-wisp on Rotom, shadow sneak, twin beam and protect on Farigiraf, Regen on Slowbro, rain synergy for Scald and tactical uses of Calm Mind. Useful for players refining VGC builds and tournament play.
Tried to build slowbro, what do you think?
Thoughts:
Tbolt over eweb on rotom?
Shadow sneak to kill sash guys through protect with
Twin beam on farig?
Protect on farig?
Regenerator on slowbro (prob won’t be switching base form and taunt immunity is great)
Why do you have rain dance on giraff? Is it for scald?
Scald and counter-weather
Wasn’t sure how to use the slot but its extra utility
And against rain you play golurk
Archaludon threatens slowbro mode too much
Rain boosted scald alone does ok damage
Usually 2hkos anything
And some calm minds help a lot

Hi
The questions are too generic. Did you use the team and are struggling with it? Tbolt over ewe is a very difficult question to answer. One is pure damage, one is speed control. You have trickroom which is your speed control. Eweb is bit counter intuitive if you want to run Tr but you have scarf and sneasler which means you would also like to operate outside TR. so then eweb would do good. Does scarf rotom outspeed scarf bascu with adaptability? If yes then you can see if tbolt OHKOs bascu. I do not see a lot of answer to rain on your team. I guess gambit to a bit and slowbro can use the rain for doing more scald damage but I would not call it a counter. So I would say it depends on your exact needs and what you are struggling with
2-1 @ in person LA regionals champions event! Slowbro does has so much bulk after a calm mind

Now any suggestions?
What did you lose too
Floette tailwind. Slowbro got kill buttoned by floette before trick room went up
Game 2 lost to kingambit sucker punch crit ohko on golurk
Adding iron head to gambit instead of low kick
Golurk has fighting coverage
Ever tried eving for certain things?
Wip team, I don’t have ev sets for em yet
Wym
I dint get the lingo
Work in progress team
Its not done
Oh
I gotchu with evs later
Wait I’m confused how the hell did slowbro get ohko’d by floette
Oh wait it was a roll
Nvm
Was either 75% if it was +spatk nature or 19% if +speed nature
Bet
UPDATED TEAM
Is it a team that plays 15+ turn games? Yes
Does it need 3 trick room setters? As stated before, games are long and you want trick rook up all the time
Does it deal enough damage? Helping hand/rain dance farig help with damage for slowbro, and even base golurk can pick off ohkos somewhat often
Why sneasler over other fake out mons? Sneasler gets u-turn to switch out last turn 2 (with tr up), and has a super fast fake out to stop opposing fake outs from things like blastoise or kang.
Slowbro + Golurk Hard Trick Room
All tr teams do
Lets be fr
Most tr games are like 7-10 turns max wdym
You either sweep in tr or die
True ig
But shiny does both
Its weird having budget milotic as a trick room setter
But its cooler than milotic
It threatens more
Daily bump before I sleep
