Hahhahahah just testing because I think they’d perform about the same these teams I’ve been maming sadly
Tr is capped
I think without indeedee
But this is what I’ve been working on
It’s kinda finished now

This is what I think will be fun to use and win matches haha
I usually don’t ever use orangu
Thats the thing i love, fun to use
But I can see some synergy
I dont like it either.
orangaru ist too annoying but it just feels like an akward pkm
It feels abit simple but it is simple I guess. He can’t be faked out and his man goal is making drampa attack twice and reliably setting tr next to the teapot
Yes, its super fun when you win with +6 band reckless struggle hitmonlee in singles
Yeah but the thing is, it cant really do much on it's own
i really dont like that type of pkmn
thats why on my scraggy and clawitzeir team i run male indeedee life orb instead of female support
Yeah the team glue. Tr ones seem crazy passive
Speed ones are usually like incin
Board stabilizers
Gotta give her more of a chance
She’s soooooooo good
Broken
Makes tr unfair on the opponent
And that’s why I’m struggling so much now haha
I haven’t used this drampa team yet I will later tonight but I assume it’ll win a little more then 50%
i really cant imgine my teams without psyduck actually
Altaria
no like seriously
She cloud nines too
Fat thing
but her typing is bad
No idea what it’s mega does
water resists fire, water, and ice. and it has crazy support options
no seriously, i never had to worry about weather again after adding psyduck
Psyduck @ Eviolite
Ability: Cloud Nine
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 248 HP / 8 Def / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Yawn
- Endeavor
- Taunt
- Haze
like look at this
He does resist Fire and Water
Surprised he wasn’t used more
Helping hand to i think it had ?
he also gets taunt and helping hand
Hahahaha a disruptor
Trying to think what other moves get that moveset
all the big problems to my teams are ussually gone bc of him (weather, dondozo, and zamazenta)
Discord sent us an expired image link.
Discord sent us an expired image link.
really, really distruptive
Water is a defensive typing to I learnt in scarlet and violet hahah
I had to run it on my hat before I learnt psychic was better haha
i mean only 2 weakness and 4 resists is bound to be really good
True
Electric and grass.
Rotom mowe usage has peaked in pre champs vgc
Mow*
Im actually not sure how gimicky i can be without NFE
and in SV, you can tera to dragon which resists both those types
like look at this and tell me how i can function without NFE
Discord sent us an expired image link.
Wow lol
Hahahahahaha
Ima see who’s most similar
i like my NFE. I can say that proudly
I think you have to run both Draco and hyper voice on drampa and choose 1 among other 2
I agree, its good to have both
Farifiraf can be played similar or golduck of course hahah
I decided Draco didn’t synergise with instruct very well !
I do enjoy playing tricks with weatherball
And idk calcs of life orb politoed but I don't think it hits hard enough. You might wanna do pelliper for that and maybe add palafin for orangaru. This way you lead palafin, opponent attack it , you switch out palafin to drampa, drampa goes low hp and get betserk boost. And from here you need to heal/sustain it. Without the +1 it's not worth it
for 10 extra bsp and a 20% chance to make you crash out, i like hydro pump 
Makes sense. But orangaru doesn't feel like it fits In the team tbh. Farigirif is enough tr setter.
I dont think its currently worth the palafin gambit
Politoad actually hits like a truck to be honest hahah more so with weather ball
Is the birds spa higher ?
I’ve been really thinking who’s it far or orangu a lot
Same typing and everything
Same typing as my love
Swapping it gives yoy more firepower and sustain. You can try sinistcha for tr as well hospitality synergises will with berserk

issue i saw was the team was very special heavy
Ive seen this exact gif once and you gave me flash backs to "INDEENEE, INDEENEE, I AM MOTHERFUCKING INDEENEE"
A lot rest on king
You needed it
Indeedee male user smh
Hey, indeedee deserves more than that
If indeedee then psyspam
Else psyspam
lol isn’t nice getting comfortable with something so good
Then they take it away 
Nfe...
Hahaha is why I believe clefable might be getting friend gaurd
And on showdown she also gains flying typing lol
Really cements the no nfe
Maybe she gets friend god which decreases damage by 75%
To allies
She needs it to be worth a mega slot
And herself
Not just the allies
Metagross ohko
