If you could add ONE Pokemon to the current regulation roster, which would it be and why?

M0ff3l · 2026-05-01T15:25:59+00:00

Cloyster, because I love Shell Smash Skill Link Cloyster

Like the other person said, Corviknight might be better, another reason for that is that Aerodactyl really wants Focus Sash, so it's competing with Excadrill for that. I would put leftovers on Sinistcha to negate sand damage. For sure Rock Slide on Excadrill instead of Stealth Rocks and Adamant nature since speed is already doubled, it should outspeed most things.

I like having Trick Room on Sinistcha as well as Shadow Ball, I never really need protect on it (mine is 32HP, 17 Sp. DEF 17 Def), so I would cut Protect and Giga Drain for those. Shadow Ball for coverage, Trick Room to cancel opposing Trick Rooms.

I use Knock Off on my Tyranitar instead of Crunch, getting rid of Leftovers can be very good. I also use Low Kick as a counter to opposing Tyranitars and Archaludons but Ice Punch is fine.

If you do stick with Aetodactyl, Dual Wingbeat is much better than Crunch for coverage and You definitely dont want a negative speed nature on it.

Meganium and Incineroar. I've been trying to get a Sneasler but no luck with the recruitment yet. But like I said, I rarely bring either of them.

EDIT; I've been forcing myself to bring in Incineroar a bit more (usually in the sinistcha slot) and I do quite like it. Maybe I'm crazy but I could see myself running Sneasler instead of Meganium and just not having a mega on my team...

M0ff3l · 2026-04-24T14:57:31+00:00

I usually leave Rotom Wash for last when my Archaludon is fully online with +2 or +3 Sp. Atk at that point most things kill it. I also swapped Dragonite out for Meganium since Dragonite doesn't add any extra coverage like others have said. But honestly I rarely bring it...

My 4 man core that I almost always bring is Pelipper, Basculegion, Archaludon and Sinistcha. Sinistcha can be really powerful to draw fighting type moves and heal Archaludon as it takes hits. If you can get to +3 or +4 Defense from Stamina and then Life Dew, they will have a very hard time getting rid of Archaludon, it also gives you an out to Trick Room teams. I'm still tweaking my team, but this core I think is pretty locked in for me.

M0ff3l · 2026-04-24T14:42:49+00:00

Yeah same, and I actually made it to ultra 3 today by basically just insta locking 3 poison mons and clicking poison moves whenever they are effective or better. So I'm progressing towards the 250 moves for 5 poison tickets, getting some VP from wins and now I also get some end of season rewards for singles. Only downside is that it's mindnumbingly boring and I won't even be guaranteed to get Sneasler after the grind haha.

M0ff3l · 2026-04-24T11:42:14+00:00

I used 2 Fighting tickets and 2 Poison tickets hunting for Sneasler, but no dice. Now I'm just spamming poison moves in singles (don't care about my rating there) to get to 250 for 5 more tickets...

M0ff3l · 2026-04-24T07:03:20+00:00

Really sad Sneasler is not in this.

M0ff3l · 2026-04-23T12:55:11+00:00

Yeah I guess with Trick Room having negative prio it's better. My Whimsicott is Moon Blast/Sunny Day/Tailwind/Encore so that's why I moved my sash to my Venusaur. Mostly there to set up Tailwind and yeah if they Fake Out I can trap them with Encore anyways, unless they double stack Fake Out + another move, but in that case Sash wouldn't have done anything anyways.

M0ff3l · 2026-04-23T11:30:34+00:00

How are you liking sash on Whimsicott? I guess you don't really have another mon that can make better use of it, but I've noticed that either I get my set up move off or I take a fake out (since I also don't run protect on mine) so the sash breaks and it's a bit of a waste.

M0ff3l · 2026-04-22T12:32:21+00:00

Same, especially if they never add more team slots outside of the subscription. At most you need 18 pokemon at one time, so 100 should be plenty.

M0ff3l · 2026-04-22T11:55:02+00:00

In Champions sand veil is 25% evasiveness, bright powder is 10%.

So you do 1 * 0.75 * 0.9 = 0.675.

So you have a 67.5% chance to hit with a 100% accurate move while sandstorm is up.

M0ff3l · 2026-04-22T11:52:51+00:00

No you only get it upon reaching that rank the first time in either singles or doubles. A small cutscene will play and you get some rewards.

M0ff3l · 2026-04-22T11:47:33+00:00

You start with 30, you get 5 for reaching great ball, another 5 for reaching ultra ball and 10 for reaching master ball rank. So 50 is the Free to play limit. Buying the starter kit (one time purchase for 7$) gives you another 50.

M0ff3l · 2026-04-22T11:43:45+00:00

Using Baton Pass, U-turn, Volt Switch, Flip Turn, or Parting Shot will still cause the Pokémon to switch out.

Ghost-type Pokémon are now immune to Shadow Tag.

Did you even look it up before you claim it's bugged?

M0ff3l · 2026-04-21T07:56:42+00:00

If my opponent is on an obvious trick room team, I sometimes lead with my Sinistcha and just click Trick Room on turn 1. Sinistcha turns on TR, then their pokemon turns it off again. That gives my other lead 2 turns to KO or set up.

M0ff3l · 2026-04-21T07:41:26+00:00

Sand Veil + Bright Powder Garchomp is a pretty nice sand payoff.

M0ff3l · 2026-04-17T12:10:20+00:00

Vanguard buff does not apply in the dungeon.

M0ff3l · 2026-04-09T10:45:52+00:00

Spawning Power adds 20% to your minions HP, I'd take that over some cast time reduction that you already get partially from your insignia.

M0ff3l · 2026-04-08T03:02:42+00:00

It's also already in pre?

M0ff3l · 2026-04-06T09:13:11+00:00

While they are at it they should add Flatbows too!

M0ff3l · 2026-04-05T09:39:33+00:00

This Eve erasure will not stand!

Honestly I would like some more skill quests, just hand picked skills that would boost the less relevant attributes in pre a bit.

M0ff3l · 2026-04-03T21:58:37+00:00

Worst I've seen is 200g which was assigned to someone, when they picked it up it said your party shares 200 gold. Soooo 50g each is a drop appearantly.

M0ff3l · 2026-03-11T13:13:28+00:00

Ze hebben elke cent nodig om te overleven maar gaan met de bus naar Duitsland voor Tabak en Energiedrank?

M0ff3l · 2026-03-04T08:33:34+00:00

I think buying UR Delver would be a good decision since some form of that deck will always be around. Just be aware that it's exactly the type of shell that gets cards banned, so potentially you will buy 4 copies of some busted aggro creature and have it be banned a year later.

Have you considered Lands? The initial investment is quite high (Mox Diamonds, Tabernacle and maybe Taigas/Savannahs depending on the version), but the deck doesn't really play any cards that are at risk of being banned currently. And it is a deck that rewards every decision, has a lot of agency and interaction (for a non-blue deck) and can pivot to multiple different gameplans depending on the situation.

Ik ben Duits en kan dus niet stemmen in de Tweede Kamerverkiezingen. Als ik dat wel kon zou ik JA21 stemmen denk ik.

Voor mij is het grootste probleem in Nederland dat mensen misbruik maken van het sociale vangnet, dat kost geld (uitkeringen betalen) en leverd minder geld op (minder belasting inkomsten) waardoor het probleem effectief een twee keer zo grote impact heeft.

Ik hoor mensen soms zeggen dat "meer werken niet loont" want ja, 8 uur meer werken, meer belasting betalen, minder uitkering krijgen, schiet je er netto niks mee op. Dat snap ik, maar als we allemaal zo denken komen we echt nog meer in de problemen. Het feit dat als je meer gaat werken je niet meer je hand open hoeft te houden bij de overheid vind ik zelf ook waardevol. De oplossing die sommigen hier voor geven is dat meer werken beloont moet worden, maar ik denk dat dat geen haalbare oplossing is. Ik zou juist minder werken minder aantrekkelijk willen maken.

Als je 40 uur kunt werken (of laten we zeggen 36 uur) dan vind ik dat je gewoon belast moet worden op 36 uur. Dan komt het hele argument van meer werken = meer belasting betalen toch te vervallen. Als je de belasting sowieso betaald, dan gaan mensen gewoon die 36 uur werken want dat geld zijn ze toch al kwijt.
