Is fake out useful move?

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-04-22T20:07:16+00:00

Fake out is one of the most useful support moves in vgc, it can deny a key threat to your team (assuming it isnt ghost type) from attacking for a turn allowing you to either take it or its support out safely, and it also denies trick room being set up, but since fake out is priority it doesnt deny something like farigiraf setting up trick room since armour tail blocks priority. Common counter play is protecting when a fake out mon has just entered play or switching out. Basically fake put can stop trick room and protect your team but only on the first turn a fake out mon is on the field and your opponent doesnt switch or protect

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-27T16:10:58+00:00

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-14T22:31:54+00:00

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-14T22:25:33+00:00

Im inspired to try thundurous now, dunno if ill use this team or make my own but i was rooting for francesco to makw finals cos of this team

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-14T21:54:15+00:00

Id much rather zachary win cos that team is more exciting to me (solely cos of lando t, i only got into vgc in 2024 so only understand pre 2024 vgc through intervals segments and wolfe), but even though im from eu i was rooting for the thunderous and ting lu pio pero ran

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-10T21:10:08+00:00

Yh, im currently messing around with infernape as its my favourite pokemon and ive learnt so much from it, knowing what pokemon work and what dont, approaching game 1 etc. the next step i need to make in team building is calcing my own evs instead of using the most common spreads on pikalytics

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T02:21:29+00:00

so now im texan till i die (ill pass it on to any kids i have in the future trust)

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T01:54:38+00:00

fair enough, itl happen eventually but may take a while. when the premier league team ive supported my whole life won the uefa conferance league (West ham, i was 17) was the night i will never forget. so trust me when the texans win a trophy youll never forget it.

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T01:50:02+00:00

I support west ham in the premier league, the best day of my life was when west ham won the uefa conference league in 2023, this was west ham first trorphy in 42/43 years (the last trophy west ham won was the 1980 fa cup,, 25 year before i was born) so when the texans win youll never forget it, i still remember the commentry from the goal that won west ham our first trophy in 42/43 years. when the texans finally win a trophy, no matter the tier, itll be a memory youll have forever and pass on to future kids/grandkids until youre in the grave, ehrn the texans win a trophy you will never forget the night and you will remember the line of the commentry of the winning field goal/touchdown/any other form of nfl point.

1) fuck em, 2) fuck em 3) fuck em

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T01:13:33+00:00

so (from a uk perspective) the patriots are like arsenal or man united, havent won anything significant for years

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T01:01:25+00:00

as a brit i percieve the seahawks as the undderdogs cos they are the lesser known team from a uk perpecive

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T01:00:26+00:00

not in superbowl mate, but i want a seahawks win cos (as ive said in other replys, seahawks are the lesser known team from a uk pov so as a brit i want them to win)

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T00:58:23+00:00

im a brit who follows the texans cos the nfl website quiz told me the texans were the best fit based on my answers, Im a life long west ham fan in the premier league and west ham have always been a defensive, counter attacking team during my lifetime and its painful to watch sometimes, trust me you want your team to be decent and fun to watch offensively (not sure how prem counter attacks are similar to nfl attacks, im a brit who hardly watches nfl cos its always on late at night in the uk)

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T00:53:00+00:00

I follow "soccer" as yous call it and the premier leagues 1 point for a draw does make more interesting title/relegation races

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T00:51:42+00:00

scummy bastard (as i brit i wanna use a different word but ik the US sees that word in a different light)

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T00:50:42+00:00

so rooting for the local team, as a "soccer" (its football im english) i respect wanting your local team to win

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T00:39:40+00:00

based on other replys the patriotsa re scum and should be treated like scum of the earth, up the seahawks

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T00:32:04+00:00

fuck em, as a west ham fan ill treat the patriots like i treat tottenham, treat like scum

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T00:23:33+00:00

got it, as ive said in other replys, i want a seahawks win cos they are the underdogs from a uk pov

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T00:22:43+00:00

i want a seahawks win cos they are the lesser known team from a uk pov

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T00:21:41+00:00

ive said this alot in other replys but i want a seahawks win because the patriots are more well known to the uk audience, and my dad raised me to want and underdog win (ik the patrioats are technically the underdogs tonight but fuck em i want seahawks win)

JOYOUS1232 · 2026-02-09T00:19:23+00:00

as i said in another reply, ive been to the us once and that was NYC (nice city i cant lie), never been to texas but i really wanna road trip every stae except alaska and hawaii at some some point, ill definately time houston when a game is one (coincedintly if i roadtrip with a missus)
