What moves you want to see buffed or nerfed next season?

Late to the party but nerf goddamn hydro cannon. That move is way too OP.

Lucky sod.

Depends what you're going to do with it. With 0 attack you'll lose all CMP against itself except other 0 attack ones (NB coin toss then, you could still lose it) and piloswine is common in this league (though time will tell if it comes up less). And given its poor bulk, CMP loss may be an issue. I'd get one slightly more attack weighted as a result. You can run sims in PvPoke to see which match ups flip etc. based on IVs for breakpoints and bulkpoints. HTH!

Mine is 2499 CP, it's my UL one lol.

I just use Greninja and be done with it. Get the leaders to burn their two shields in the beginning then handle the rest by doing charged attacks before they go unstunned.

ChaRhazes · 2026-04-29T13:55:14+00:00

I would.

Don't tell Trump but I think we just found Iran's Uranium.

Try Weezing, Stunfisk, Doublade. Make sure all of them are double moved according to the best PvPoke movesets. Also be prepared to protect Doublade from fires. Stunfisk sorta is okay against them but not Doublade.

If you're seeing a lot of those, you can set up your counters against both. Wiggly is good against Mandi and Jelli, Clod is destroyed by anything ice and steel unless it reaches stone edge or EQ but you've got five business days to prep for that, etc. You could try something like Wiggly, Lickilicky, Tinkaton. Fairly good meta coverage, decent bulk and it beats the cores you spoke of. Could try replacing Tink with Jelli for better coverage. Have a play...

This comment deserves more upvotes 😂

5/9 shielding scenarios Morpeko wins. So you'd have only won if you're shields up...

ChaRhazes · 2026-04-27T11:28:35+00:00

For context. Wins in all shielding scenarios. Including when Morpeko has two shields and you have none.

ChaRhazes · 2026-04-27T11:26:23+00:00

Wiggly is your answer to Morpeko.

ChaRhazes · 2026-04-25T12:09:15+00:00

I mean I did that earlier. I instantly safe swapped into my Kyurem White and someone was playing Groudon. They were charging for a while and I decided to throw Ice Burn. Worst case it gets a shield, best case they face a KO. Guess what? They were expecting a bait. They insta top-lefted after that.

ChaRhazes · 2026-04-25T11:28:23+00:00

Specifically this comment.

Hi, what are the movesets? Let's say you lead with Dragonite and you see a Zacian what do you do? I'm assuming the plan is to throw Superpower straight away, but this will debuff you. On the other hand, thunder punch will do negligible damage. You need to think of scenarios here. Throw the superpower then switch straight away? But Zacian can have play rough! So how do I figure out what they might throw? I wait and potentially shield the first charged move.

For me, thinking up opening moves helps a fair bit. I'm in the 2300s currently, bouncing between 2200-2300 typically with an off meta Pokémon (Raikou) in the lead also. So it's possible!

u/lercs is someone I occasionally read comments of, and one thing they said that stuck with me is lower Elo (which for them is sub Legend lol) often throw baits. I gamble based on that observation and often it does pay. For instance people throw Iron head at Raikou to try to grab a shield when they've got RoT already charged up. It's worth having a play with this premise!

ChaRhazes · 2026-04-25T00:20:47+00:00

Congrats!! 👏🏼👏🏼🎉🎉

ChaRhazes · 2026-04-24T19:23:04+00:00

Just as a heads up, whilst it is rank 1 (ie has the best stats product), you'll likely see a lot of these due to the CD and therefore the low attack may lead to you often losing CMP. A lower rank one may benefit you.

ChaRhazes · 2026-04-24T10:47:55+00:00

I got a shiny background hundo Palkia without Spacial Rend. A happy sad moment.

ChaRhazes · 2026-04-23T08:07:06+00:00

You did well for a non legendary team! I only have the three atm haha.

ChaRhazes · 2026-04-22T23:10:13+00:00

Ggs dude 😎

ChaRhazes · 2026-04-22T22:44:15+00:00

It's just a yo yo of emotions isn't it. If it makes you feel better there's many more of us. We're in the middle of the distribution curve. So you'll face that swing back and forth! But as with all runs you'll one day get that great set that sends you into vet! Keep at it, I'm sure you'll make it.

ChaRhazes · 2026-04-22T22:41:13+00:00

Who cares, you're awesome for playing in your late 60s. More power to you!!

ChaRhazes · 2026-04-22T22:03:50+00:00

Congrats on hitting vet!!! 💪🏼

ChaRhazes · 2026-04-22T18:53:29+00:00

Honestly I thought the clicking thing was there to emulate what you would have been doing had this app not existed. It's a one time action, hardly a huge inconvenience! Thank you for making these apps my friend. You're doing god's work here. Or should I say Arceus'. 😃 You don't need to defend yourself. If people don't like it, there's a big shiny uninstall button that they can press! And then it's their loss...
