Help vs Trick Room and Mega Swampert
Summary
Pokémon Champions | VGC Battles & Tournaments post asks for team advice to shore up weaknesses to Trick Room and opposing Mega Swampert, considers Sinistcha as a counter, and requests EV spread tuning. This matters to the community as it targets common rain team issues and aims to reach Master Ball tier while improving competitive play.
Hello! I'm fairly new to the competitive scene and I've been using this team for most of my time here. I absolutely love it and I do think its almost good enough for me to try and aim for Master ball tier but it has some obvious shortcomings I want to remedy. The first is that the team feels extremely weak to trick room and the second is that opposing mega swamperts can cause an enormous amount of problems to most of my team. I've been looking at sinistcha as a potential fix to these problems but all the Pokémon on the team have felt so good and reliable im not sure if thats the correct thing to do at all. I also put little thought in the EV spreads, mostly just copying things I've seen online so help fine tuning them would be very helpful. Thanks in advance to the team builders of the community, especially considering I dont think I'll be the first or last to send a mega swampert rain team here for help.
