Comp. Pokemon Thread MK2: Let's Go Back To Kanto Like Everyone Wanted!

you wanna get banned now? Jump on showdown son. It will be quick I promise

Why did you lose to me?

So you can play Mood

Don’t think I’ve seen that Blissey set anywhere. GGs! Man that was loooooong! For now, Imma going to keep testing this team. I think it’s time to change Hippodawns moveset a bit.

I love this Showdown sim. This is not the GEN 7 meta I just feel like I need to brush up on some things.

Wait why did that Blissey have Fustration?

You evolve it at Max Happiness, then drop it as far as it can go afterwards.

That’s fucked up.

No clue why he didn’t just run Return if he wanted an atk based on happiness. Or maybe he just hates Blissey

He was totes trolling with that lolol

To be fair, I didn’t start complaining until after someone riled me up. Also despite yes M Sableye being a boon to stall, so many wanted it banned (to a degree it was…but way too late).

I think I had better luck with older teams. Imma go through my past matches and see what I can use there. I miss TSS teams way back. These new mons feel like they cater to my unconventional style yet lack the practical needs if that makes sense (like Palossand and celesteela know giga drain but not stealth rocks? Wut?)

Newest Idea I’m looking into is something with the water spider.

Yeah man def go through your old matches! I seem to mix old school stuff with new school stuff, that’s totally me right now whether it be synergy or building teams. There’s too many moves and possibilities now and it takes like an hour for me to think of something good.

The Pokemon International Championships start today! If you got a moment peak in!

They also have TCG and Pokken if you’re interested.

NO lie, I keep reading Pokken as Poffin (anyone remember those?)

I seriously don’t agree with team building to handle “every” threat. Maybe couple gens ago, but I gave that shit up. It’s impossible. I go to team build I pick the one out of; Feraligatr, mega houndoom, mega medicham or Hydreigon then build something solid.

I need to see one these comps that handle every major threat. I don’t think they exist.

I agree with you both. You can’t prep for everything but you can tailor a team to a particular Mon or 2 while trying to cover the most common things being seen. If you think you can cover everything in this game then you are an idiot. Just play something you like and try to beat as many of the top used threats as possible.

While no, you can’t 100% cover everything, you can make a team that has no scenario where you could autolose at the team preview screen.

Show me.

Let’s try a simple bulky o team

Bulk Up Tapu Bulu
Bulky Charizard X
Gyarados
Celesteela
Specs Tapu Koko
A Marowak

That’s off the top of my head real quick but that should be able to play around most things. Landorus can be a problem but celesteela and gyarados can do damage against it

@“po pimpus” you ready? you had 1 week nigga. Even you can make a team in 6 days

Lots of DCers on Showdown, it’s hard to test stuff :mad
