You could try Archaludon for the rain mode, why did you choose Dnite instead of Kommo-o?
D nite is a good secondary mega that is good for when i just cant run the perish and is good in base too
Kommo is also kinda weak to perish and arch is weak to sneasler
Lwk forgot to ping
with soundproof kommo can just tank the perish
also i agree on arch looking good
oh sneasler right
how about grassy seed sneasler with acrobatics
to counter sneasler
xd
fight fire with fire
I ment psyslam myb
Ive tried it
Its okay
ah yeah true
you need a uturn mon of some sort imo
someone like basculegion would do numbers here
with flip turn
Doesnt help vs psyspam and loses to rilla
gallade
aegislash
quaquaval ice spinner
make dnite non mega and add in houndoom instead
rillas already the counter incin is a counter
bring in male indeedee use imprison
You named me 3 ass mons
Rilla ≠ counter
Rilla = soft wall
Grassy removes psy terrain
Which removes spam
Thats not a counter if they can just swap it back in
Terrain is no different than a weather war
Id disagree
Weather is more influencial
Houndoon in rain you speakin to me 🗣️ 🔥
Dark is what you need more than fire tbh
Ye and not from mr doom
Just saying it's a mega option no one would expect as a dark attacker
Its not used for a reason
Mega gyrados is better even
