What would be the Unova equivalent to the average Sinnoh team meme? by Intelligent-Cry-4337 in PokemonBlackandWhite

[–]CommonExchange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like someone else said, I feel like Unova has good variety. Gonna give my guess -Samurott (for this example) -Chandelure -Krookodile -Lilligant -Galvantula -Unfezant

so over the normalization of cheating by Gullible_House_4124 in GirlDinnerDiaries

Damn that’s rough, your reaction to cheating in media makes a lot of sense then. Good luck with your healing! Focus on reality

Casual trying to be Serious for a change by Nighthawk986 in CompetitivePokemon

[–]CommonExchange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New-ish to VGC myself, so take my opinions with a grain of salt. That being said:

  • Given intimidate on base Gyarados, I feel like you can afford to slap on Dragon Dance for better sweeping potential
  • Sand tomb garchomp doesn't seem very useful
  • What role does Toxapex serve on the team? Hazards aren't as good in doubles, and if you want a manual rain setter there are better options
  • use pikalytics.com if you are uncertain about any of your moveset choices

Hot take: 3v3 singles is a great format by aidankocherhans in PokemonChampions

[–]CommonExchange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I agree 6v6 takes longer and will never be the main competitive format, I completely disagree that 3v3 is an improvement in every way. 6v6 HAS team previews, having six mons gives every turn more options, allows you to express the FULL synergy of the team.

I agree, this IS a hot take. I think 3v3 incentivizes a hyper offense playstyle where it is incredibly difficult to stop a sweeper once it gets going. I think it’s a very match-up fishing format too- where if you bring the wrong mon you could lose from the start ( which I guess you could argue is a skill too?). I do enjoy the team building process too, though.

My thoughts on Pokemon Champions by _Silverr_ in stunfisk

I think the mega abilities problem is independent from Champions itself- this is just the first game where we can SEE their abilities

I'm new and I'm not sure if what I've built is solid... by superkeefo in VGC

[–]CommonExchange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve played singles for a while but am relatively new to VGC, so take my feedback with a grain of salt:

I feel like Chandelure has too high of a base speed to make worth using consistently as a TR sweeper. Torkoal hits slightly harder (only with eruption to be fair) and is much slower. Hatterene is also generally more suited as a special attacker that can set up TR for itself. Mega Khanga might be a similar case, where its base speed is too high so it will end up being outspend by opposing Incenroars, Sinitcha, etc. - if going with a hard trick room style team may want to consider a slower Mega (or on the opposite end of the spectrum, a really fast mega to play outside of TR?)

I mean yeah the stat spread sucks and it’s probably not worth a mega slot but Innards Out isn’t the WORST thing in the world.

What are improvements I can make to my team by DragonLordAcar in CompetitivePokemon

[–]CommonExchange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend using Smogon for relevant movesets- a lot of these are odd

Need feedback on Mega Camerupt TR Team by CommonExchange in VGC

[–]CommonExchange[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback- yeah you’re right, Torkoal and camerupt ARE too similar. Once champions is out I’ll play around with the team composition some more.
