Summary
In the Pokémon Champions | VGC Battles & Tournaments server, members are actively theorycrafting a balanced team featuring Golisopod and Gengar. This announcement explores the viability of Rain and Trick Room cores while debating the effectiveness of Perish Trap strategies in the current meta. It is a great resource for players looking to refine their competitive lineups and receive community feedback on specific Pokémon synergies.
The main goal here to have sort of balance. My two mega are good for different situations, mega golisopod core there core is supposed to be rain / trick room team he is good into every team except for the zard and pyroar team so I would bring mega genagr and perish trap into those matchups.
The perish trap core where genagr is the main focus he is able to sweeep teams that don’t have ghost type and some specific dark type Pokémon.
The main problem is I have been struggling with is exactly what rain and trick room setter I should have the options I have been throwing around is, politoad ( it good to set up rain and good for perish trap stuff and zard matchups), indee is good for trick rooom and helping the team survive through perish song.
This is the first idea And I’m open to ideas for which Pokémon’s to use.
I was also running mimkyu around too hehe I have Primarina as an attacker and solid check into bax and fire types

Interesting
What bad about perish
It needs a lot of support that doesn't exist at all here
Aight
So should I fully abandoned perish ?
Hm
