    What's everyone's least favorite strat?

    And on that team it’s used as a set up sweeper. That was an interesting team, not sure how it would do against someone familiar with it, but it would catch a lot of people out.

    Volcarona’s not a wall it’s a set up sweeper.

    What's everyone's least favorite strat?

    Stall easily. Why the fuck would I want to play a match where you bring 6 weak blobs and switch between them over and over again for 50+ turns?

    Yeah…after desperately trying to make Terapagos work, I have to conclude it just isn’t good in single restricted. It takes too much support to make it work, and it’s just not consistent. I think it’ll be better in double restricted, where it can partner up with non tera reliant ubers like Zacian...

    Trying to build a team with Terapagos. Going for 3 attacks + Protect atm. What teammates would be good for it. Right now I have Tornadus to set Tailwind and Ogerpon to deter Snarl and Incineroar.

    Nice time to build a Terapagos team. Not saying it’s the best or anything like that, just the one I’m most looking forward to trying out.

    Agree with A+, Miraidon and Shadowrex are going to be very good, splashable powerful threats. For A, I think I would move Lunala down in single restricted, since it's better at supporting its team than being a threat itself. I would also move Groudon up, in addition to hitting like a truck and...

    Not at all, my sister had her first age 36 and met her now husband at 32

    Not to mention, it’s also got some great new teammates too. Farigiraf can block priority moves, Sinistcha can keep it healthy and redirect, Iron Bundle can handle the Dragons and provide speed control, Gouging Fire can debuff enemies and blast Grasses. Yeah Kyogre is not bad now. Don’t get me...

    Got bored so I made a Terapagos team. Terapagos I feel will be a strong anti meta Pokemon. In a meta dominated by weather and terrains, being able to turn all of them off could be a game changer. A lot of people are turned off by Terapagos, as it doesn't have the immediate power of other...

    Netflix’s One Piece is better than the original anime. It has better pacing, better fight choreography, and the villains feel way more threatening.

    Could a Sandstorm team work? Yeah Tyranitar hates Rilla and Urshi, but Watershifu's is on the decline and Torkoal and Pelipper seem quite rare - Torkoal requires Trick Room support and Pelipper doesn't have many good rain abusers outside Archaludon.

    Before Gen 4 it used to have 32 PP. Celebi is banned from GSC OU, not because of its power (base 100 attacking stats in a meta where everything has maxed out EVs doesn't dish out much damage, it also didn't have SD in GSC) but because it just doesn't die.

    Stall sucks. Why the fuck would I want to play a match where you bring 6 weak passive blobs and switch around and spam recovery moves for 100+ turns? And what’s the fun in even using a team like that? Losing to a stall team is as much fun as having your fillings changed with no pain killers. As...

    I think Terapagos could be a great option, and a strong anti meta pick in general. It’s immune to Astral barrage, in its base forme any hit is resisted at full HP, and in its Stellar forme it takes away all weather and terrains. Ting Lu could also work, resists both STABs and lowers its Special...

    A Pokemon I want to talk about. This thing has similar bulk to Giratina-A, while packing a Special Attack stat on par with Lunala. While it doesn't have the immediate power of Pokemon like Zacian, Kyogre and Calyrex-S, it has a few ways to patch this up (see below), and it makes up for that...

    The world is not getting worse. If you truly believe it is, imagine I’m a genie who can send you back to past era (90s is the latest.) 2 catches though - 1, you don’t get any memories of the world after that time, and 2: I chose who you are and where you live. 90s: you get to live in Kosovo...

    I’ll take a bronze medal, and yay one of my teams won! This was great fun, really enjoyed it (though I still hate Poison, why are there players willing to die on that hill?) looking forward to round 3.
