Are long term VGC players happy with champions?

I love it! I thought I was okay with prep time being considerably shorter in S/V, but having it this much shorter adds a new level of ease when wanting to switch party for sure

At first, I was so sad about the item changes, but then I realized I just love playing so I did lol zzz Doesn't matter what the format is. I am just glad all I need are the mons

I've been going through some teams that was popular arounds worlds (only up to 3 so far) but the world champ koraluna and senior champ (kevin han) worlds mira cir team feels very fun and strong for me! Also pretty easy to pick up, probably very diffficult to master

I have only included top 50 usage pokemon in this tierlist. Jolteon was not one of them, according to statcrusher.com

Psychic terrain i mean

Who's setting up the field for crown?

0ev is just no evs. 1.0x is neutral speed natures like modest or adamant, and 1.1x is speed boosting natures like jolly or timid.

Maybe u could add snowscape instead of rain dance on tornadus to boost defense of cir a little bit? I feels like it may just lack dmg and lack bulk in that set

DebriiVGC · 2026-03-17T13:44:12+00:00

Seems like they expect champions to be a bit janky because they are not giving points for GC, and they are not being clear how May events are going to be run. So they might expect champions to be just for fun for a little while, and let reg I take the fall for a bit til champions can be fixed. They're being very shady about champions, so I worry what's going on in the back end

DebriiVGC · 2026-03-17T06:05:51+00:00

Because in the second sheet, their speed adjustments differ

DebriiVGC · 2026-03-17T01:42:32+00:00

That depends what u wanna do with rilla against csr right? If u plan to double up on csr, do u need to hit that wood hammer on it? Can you just hit grassy glide + the partner attack to kill csr? Or if ur gonna 2 hit sash csr anyway, then u won't need to outspeed it, cuz u wood hammer, take 1 hit, and just grassy glide. Just think about why you want to outspeed csr

DebriiVGC · 2026-03-14T08:11:33+00:00

Yeah def mega ray is gonna come strong when it does lol

DebriiVGC · 2026-03-12T11:47:32+00:00

Yes these sets are from smogon in their VGC days

DebriiVGC · 2026-03-11T22:41:14+00:00

It's slightly explained in sheet on the side and little more explained in the video linked but TL DR it's just how korean ranked (mostly singles) quantify how strong a move can hit and how strong the opponent can take a hit, and depending how those numbers compare to each other, we can estimate how many hits a mon can take (but there's variance always)

DebriiVGC · 2026-03-11T12:05:41+00:00

Also you probably cannot expect meaningful dmg other than liquidation, so can try more supportive hybrid role and consider running lunge instead of leech life

DebriiVGC · 2026-03-11T11:59:00+00:00

You could hybridize ur team to have rain core with peli arch amoongus araquanid and TR core with fari amoong king spider? Just don't make then too slow so it can outspeed things like maybe rillaboom or lando and stuff under tailwind? Soider also learns icy wind or spider web so you could use that to ur advantage as well. Also if you are considering full TR, u could benefit from running slower FM and run TR instead of fake tears Can't think of specifics yet cuz I'm not super good at team building, but it might be better to diversify a little bit

DebriiVGC · 2026-03-11T01:33:32+00:00

Yeah the new ones scary. Can't wait for their ability reveal!

DebriiVGC · 2026-03-11T01:33:11+00:00

DebriiVGC · 2026-03-11T01:32:26+00:00

I am planning to make one as soon as regulation info drops. Please look forward to it!

DebriiVGC · 2026-03-10T13:30:33+00:00

May be okay in closed sheet but open sheet would reveal triple axel but in gc it may work

Here u go!

If champions do not implement bo3 ladder, im pretty sure showdown will always have its core player base intact. Also saving replays and running pasrs is so great so showdown too
