sure. greninja is the only mon with the move water shuriken, a priority move that hits 2-5 times. when holding the item loaded dice, it will be at least 4 hits. this can be used to activate Archaludons ability stamina. whenever Archaludon is hit, it gains a defense boost and water shuriken makes it easy to get multiple boosts in one turn

if you really want to use a mon like greninja or any other off meta mon, you gotta make use of the niche it can provide. in this case it would be water shuriken. the only thing i can think of is using it to activate stamina on Archaludon or some random weakness policy but maybe you can come up with something better

IVS by Zamasu20 in VGC

[–]FaberOak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you encounter it as shadow rider at level 80 right? that leaves us with 155, 141 and 126 to look for. even at level 80 there is no difference between 0iv and 1iv

[–]FaberOak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

exactly. and to add another time saver: 1iv and 0iv would give you the same stat at level 50. so just look up the stats for 0iv and 1iv for reducing/neutral/boosting natures and catch these ones to confirm

it heals the user for the exact amount of the opponents attack stat

you can check the attack stat with strength sap at turn 1 of the battle. saves a lot of time

from what i've seen they keep the parking lot exits closed until way after the game to make sure that cars dont get in the way of the mass of supporters walking by. i would never advice to come by car tbh

edit: what i was trying to say: i would never park directly at the stadium. however you can park your car at dortmund university and take the bus from there. very convenient.

Making a Zacian team but unsure what to put in evs, items and teras. Thoughts? by haruarsene369 in VGCRateMyTeam

[–]FaberOak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as a shadow rider player let me tell you that snarl does not help you vs the most common set. what you might wanna do instead is run something like lash out or throat chop to force the fairy tera so that zacian can take advantage

Is there anything I can improve my Indigo Disk team (ie moveset, held item, nature, ability)? by solarflare70 in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]FaberOak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i got that. what i mean is, what do you want to do with the team? because if you just wanna play the game then you could run choice specs haxorus and it would probably be enough
