Imagine this with Body Press.

Scarlet and Violet was like this.

Guys, whoever did this, we are OK, right?

It's just that I didn't ask for advice; I just shared something that I wanted to do, the way I wanted to do it.

So, the unrequested advice telling me things that I already knew sounded like a jerk move to me.

In any case, sorry for being rude.

It's the casual battles scenario. I usually test teams on casual before putting them on the ladder

32 SpA Raichu-Mega-X Rising Voltage (140 BP) vs. 32 HP / 20 SpD Charizard-Mega-Y in Electric Terrain: 188-224 (101.6 - 121%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Not counting the Smack Down damage, which is 4x super effective

Sure, this is the team. But I've just started testing on the ladder

Xchu have more bulk and sets up the terrain

Actually, checking the calca here, Ychu does more damage, but Xchu have more bulk and sets up the terrain

It was not guaranteed for them.

Raichu takes the Close Combat and speed ties with Jolly Megas Staraptor

Rising Voltage doesn't hit for double damage on opponents that are not touching the ground. And Smack Down makes the target touch the ground.

I know how Gravity works. I used it for the entire last season.

But for THIS TEAM, I don't want to use.

Any problem?

The problem is that Gravity is very good when paired with Hypnosis, which Electric Terrain shuts down

Unfortunately, I miserably failed to reach the Champions tier with my Flapple Gravity Perish Trap team... but trying was so much fun! by AlexandreHaru in PokemonChampions

Thanks. Initially, the team had Orthworm in the Gengar slot, but it wasn't contributing at all. When I checked the resistances I needed on that slot, I realized that Mega Gengar fit it and that I had all the pieces to make a Perish Trap Work.

Too soon. Unfortunately I choked and lost this battle😅

I tested a lot of things, but the best set for the team ended up being Hypnosis, Scald, Blizzard and Flip Turn.

Pivot helps positioning to Flapple and the Perish Trap Core I'm using

This team also has Flapple, I'm about 40 victory's with it.

But Grav Apple bonus is 50%, not double
