Shoutout to Dragonite, being an irreplaceable Pokemon among all of the Legends and Paradox mons in the format. That said... I really wish the power creep of SV VGC wasn't so fast. So many cool pokemon didn't get a chance to shine in their debut generation. That sucks.

QOTD: So far, I've struggled to deal with Ogerpon Wellspring. The team I'm renting to start the season has a lot of Water Tera options, so Ogerpon-W has a pretty comfortable time coming in and putting pressure on my team with Horn Leech. It's probably a skill issue, though, because I often find myself in positions where I leave the Pokemon that can stand up to it on the bench. All part of the learning process!

Man this team was so good during that tourney run. I liked seeing Raging Bolt and Entei shine since they were "fresh" to the meta. QOTD: Archaludon can be so tough if you dont have the right special attacker or a big enough hitter to get it gone in 2 hits before its boosts stack up

Thanks for the showcase! Not used to piloting Chien-pao cores so it's nice to see this showcase and glad you went over the weaknesses since I also find myself struggling with Trick Room teams and opposing speed control teams. Still a great team to watch out for and learn. QOTD: Off-meta teams, often Hard Trick Room, has been tough to fight especially with a bulky Farigiraf and Ursaluna-Bloodmoon. Dondozo-Tatsugiri cores can also be a struggle when my team doesn't have a particular answer to it.

@cyberrb257 ай бұрын
Sacred Fire being better Inferno... being a move that precedes Inferno. Sacred Fire: - 100 BP - 95 Acc - 50% chance of burning (scaled, it is something like 47.5%) Inferno: - 100 BP (same as Sacred Fire) - 50 Acc - Always burns (scaled, it is 50% - whenever it hits) In the end, you get more from the raw damage dealt the 45% of the unhit "Infernos" than the damage you uptick with the 2.5% advantage Inferno has over Sacred Fire on burning.

In that match you lost, I would’ve done Ice Spinner into Tatsugiri and Thunderclap into Dondozo, rather than Sucker Punch into it. Then in the next turn you could’ve done sucker punch tatsugiri to finish it off and Draco meteor into dragonite. That could’ve helped get the win for your team.

the deal with the fluttermanes is: 1) if you see a booster energy SP ATT one you at the very least speed tie but most likely outspeed 2) if is not booster and it is specs or focus sash they probably outspeed cause the normal specs flutter is always EVed to outspeed adamant Chien Pao, hence why you have jolly Pao to 1v1 opposing flutters with ice spinner plus sucker punch 3) if its booster speed it always outpaces you.
@Volti6667 ай бұрын
Really glad for Entei to be in a format where it can shine! So good! Saw the match of Alex Underhill and was really great! And for the QOTD: I think that Latias is not easy to get rid off. Maybe it's just my team, but the combination of a bulky mon that loweres your spatk while hitting hard is not to scoff at. Yes - you do have fluttermane but after a tailwind it's often to risky for it to face it face first. But there is a ton of strong Pokémon right now.

That seems to me like just asking to lose games to a miss when you can avoid it. really like this one, i was testing a team that had 5 of those 6 mons actually, kinda reassuring to see the mons i currently like in the mega being successful :) i'm not a booster flutter fan tho, i think the mons is just too hard to use without sash, any slight missplay and you just die to any move.
