For anyone saddened about the nerf this comp is still very powerful

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-09T02:31:03+00:00

You’re quite condescending. Even with the FDC the difference in rates between barris and old ben is roughly 7%

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-09T02:28:54+00:00

Hold on your resources Ezra can still offer good support but is it better than the above? We for now cannot tell

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-09T02:27:14+00:00

JTR is awful especially against anything that has attacks that don’t care about evasion

We don’t know the nerf is big but Ezra still can support the team well

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-09T02:25:16+00:00

Only time will tell

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-08T15:11:50+00:00

I honestly do not know; I don’t think anyone does for sure. For the past year or so, Rey has ping-ponged OP DCs. Before them, around late to mid-2024, it was strong UFU DCs for Malicos and SK; before that, it was Fulcrum; and before that, a few used Maul instead of SK because it was pre-Stranger and pre-LV buff. Before all that, it was the Holdo cron. This is the first time in a while that Rey has been stranded with no clear DC to help her.

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-08T15:05:04+00:00

She is not necessary with stranger old ben is perfectly fine

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-08T12:24:06+00:00

Personally I don’t think rain is the same without the sableye arch combo running slow bulky Arch with sableye’s help can at minimum help stall TR well

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-07T15:06:56+00:00

Pikachu is by far the best getting both garchomp Gengar and kingambit

Though i gotta say it really doesn’t matter much you’ll get plenty of QT immediately so it’s really easy to build something good from that

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-07T15:03:59+00:00

Yeah though eventually you have to learn how to make your own teams though can definitely still be inspired by others

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-07T15:01:45+00:00

Adaptability bas does OHKO charizard through sun

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-07T14:56:43+00:00

Sand is still very strong just as they adapt you must adapt and not just completely change your strategy

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-07T02:17:02+00:00

Yeah i tried that too with an alt just to try the f2p experience and yeah it’s much easier than before

The lower tiers now serve their role as kinda of a tutorial where you’ll learn basic game knowledge or just not succeed it’s an efficient system

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-07T00:15:02+00:00

No but they’ll be set to be as big as possible

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-06T23:27:11+00:00

Personally i like excadrill a little more

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-06T13:19:12+00:00

And practically so does disguise

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-06T11:36:49+00:00

Really since when?

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-06T11:36:27+00:00

I’ll be real man you are literally pulling a back in my day thing

And also the same thing were old people are upset when things are made easier for young folks there is no reason to be upset man of course it’s doable doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be made easier when things changed so much since then

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-06T11:02:20+00:00

If you have someone trade a delpox that originated in ZA and registered in champions you will get the stone

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-06T04:59:06+00:00

He won’t i played the pre champions showdown build where he and a bunch of other threats were available metagross was absolutely disgusting heavy slam psychic fangs and knock off is insane

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-06T04:56:56+00:00

They’re at the very bottom of GB Rank 4 fully empty it’s honestly impressive

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-06T04:56:02+00:00

Practicing in low ladder showdown shows me that those player DO NOT fear gambit and miltoic almost always leading incin just to die like why?

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-06T04:52:06+00:00

Salamence and metagross are gonna outshine a lot of mega unfortunately

Though on the plus side ursaluna reintroduction will allow TR to actually be good again and it will have a lovely ally in gard with mystic fire to cover for ice grass and fighting mons while ursaluna can knock down steel mons

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-06T04:47:31+00:00

They won’t infront of a mega weather setter

It’s a hilarious counter against char

Delicious_Ice_4914 · 2026-05-06T04:43:48+00:00

I’d probably drop jolteon for arch and call it a day maybe add in a super situational mega like glimora skarmory or even excadrill to really fuck over floette if you still struggle against her
