@DinomiteVGC Best we can do is Facade or Giga Impact if you’re a real freak

Hold on since when did lopunny lose double edge 💀
They gave it CC and then took away all it's physical normal moves 😭
English
@WeedleTwineedle This is gonna go right over the heads of the average showdown player
English
@Normalssbbbx The much lesser known but infinitely more frustrating Schrödinger’s Giraffe
English
@OnShinobu fr, my kingambit is 71 speed to underspeed things in the base 60 range running min speed like farig and sylveon
English
hard trick room feels super legit in this format, folks are very very unprepared for it and don't pack a lot of counters. i highly recommend ppl try it out
English
@R5862609585808 Oh see I'm licking my chops as a hard TR player seeing my opponent lead a mon that obviously wants to imprison me, because it's a free 2v1 for me to do more damage
English
@lecheconfleisfr Truthfully I don't think the sauce is using a dedicated "TR mega" at all. I've seen success using Zard Y in TR, taking inspiration from a player who finished in Champions tier last season with it on hard TR.

@SurgeVGC Some days, you wake up and you’re Balance Team Enjoyer I Just Rock Slie Flinched. Other days, you’re Da King Of Da Format. It’s all a matter of perspective.
English
how it feels watching your opponent click rock slide regardless of type matchup and getting both flinches
English
@FomTarro It constantly amazes me how many of the fire resists get 2 shot by HH Charcoal Eruption, Incineroar and Tyranitar being the exceptions that immediately comes to mind, but that’s what the fighting type mon is there for!
English
@SurgeVGC Obviously I adore Torkoal, but I feel like every team has 3+ fire resists or an effortless rain/sand setter...
English
@HunterButOnTwt @AgatiGa It’s like 50/50 to survive adamant sneasler CC through chople. Unless you waste a ton of points in defense that def aren’t worth it
English
@KingambitPlayers I have a proposal. We all agree to never run Low Kick again so we can run Iron Head without being in a mirror disadvantage. Your Fairy matchup is fixed, Chople Berry is no longer needed and you can run Black Glasses too! Everyone wins
English
@Gooseissocool Ooo ya mega blastoise is a bit of a problem. It’s a little anti meta at the moment but something I should def have more consistent answers for
English
@RaincandyLuca I don’t even run a TR mega. I’m rocking zard y and lopunny for megas and just surrounding them with a hard TR core lol
English
@OomfOfAnOomf Once that TR is up tho, sinistcha folds like origami to TR sweepers that hit the field. Can run Colbur for Gambit or Occa for Torkoal but it can’t do both lol
English
@SurgeVGC everyone is on sinistcha rn. it feels like every team is running a tr counter.
English
@chowitzer I disagree, the only thing we’re really missing is psychic terrain. We still have hatterene, Torkoal, Kingambit, and even some fun TR megas to play with. Just bc there are no Ursalunas doesn’t mean it’s unviable
English
@SurgeVGC Hard TR doesn't have as many tools in this format as in SV, the setters and sweepers available just aren't as good in the same quantity. Still totally viable of course but not something I want to run.
English
@its_gloooom You def have to be aggressive on the switches to get your positioning right, and a Feint user goes a long way on a trick room team
English
@Gooseissocool Torkoal and Farigiraf are practically impossible to counter once they’re in position, guaranteed way to clear the board
English
@Smogolem Do u run Torkoal? That and Farig have been dunking on those two in my experience
English
@SurgeVGC I'm a htr soldier but the counters are built in sadly...
GAMBIT and THAT FUCKASS FISH ruin my day
English
Would be kinda hilarious if it gets prankster and parting shot to totally steal Incineroar’s lunch

Llevo dándole vueltas a un tema... Muchas megas dependen de su habilidad para brillar... Y con Srcrafty tenemos un tema interesantísimo. En los inicios de Espada y Escudo Scrafty vió juego hasta que volvió Incineroar... Y aún así se veia de vez en cuándo. Pero mirad estas STATS. Es un Pokémon EXTREMADAMENTE defensivo. Con intimidación antes de mega evolucionar y acceso a sorpresa... ¿Os imagináis que le vuelven a dar Intimidación? No... No es broma. Ya sé que hay pokemons como Kingambit o Milotic... Pero contra el resto de la pokedex fisica sencillamente serian marionetas delante de este tio. Doble intimidación en un pokemon jajjajaj Sé que estoy divangado pero... ¿Habéis visto el aspecto que tiene?... LE PEGA

Opp went 3/3 on Politoed Hypnosis and won 2/2 speed ties against my Hatterene and I still pulled out the W. I won’t pretend to claim the world champ diff so I’ll call that the #LocalParticipantDifference
