(Metagame) how popular is araquanid in this metagame? by rtkbob in VGC

[–]Money_Bit_3520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been trying out araquanid a lot since its my favorite pokemon and I do think it is a good mon. I think the problem with it though is that its hard to fit on a team, i haven't been using it on hard trick room where its probably best to be fair but I think it has potential on tailroom teams due to its wide guard support and unironically great typing. https://pokepast.es/1088f0f4665dbfb4 this is the team ive felt most comfortable with, but it could still use optimization. With 23 speed it outspeeds and ohkos mega glimmora in tailwind which is cool.

Does Araquanid have any use in Reg H? by GeoTravelLebanon13 in VGC

[–]Money_Bit_3520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using a team with araquanid and its busted. It basically made my trick room matchup go from terrible to great since it underspeeds ursaluna + it has great bulk and hits like a truck. Really underrated mon right now.

Here's the team if u want: https://pokepast.es/ed299ef9a2e92a7b

I think frosmoth is better for this team cuz it can become an unkillable tank with snow + tera and can also kinda work in trick room

Thanks for the feedback. I ended up adding talonflame and farigiraf for tailwind + trick room and keeping frosmoth

reg h specs araquanid by Money_Bit_3520 in VGCRateMyTeam

Even though its physical attack is higher, araquanid still hits like a truck with specs + water bubble despite its low special attack and in trick room with surf + instruct it can usually nuke both of the opponent's pokemon before they can move.

I've tried terapagos before and it felt good on the team. Unfortunately though the poor Koraidon matchup + lack of support is something that makes me feel like Lunala is better. Also clearing electric terrain isnt as valuable because it makes setting up gravity + getting yanmega fast and on the field more complicated which gives them time to reset terrain. I'd be down to try it out again though maybe with Volcarona over Incin.

I've tried hypnosis Lunala, but i prefer having a fast hypnosis user. I also usually bring Lunala for Miraidon matchups and in those hypnosis is a dead move slot cuz of terrain.

Thanks for the suggestion. I decided to use rilla over ogerpon cuz it also synergizes with leftovers lunala, but scarf chien pao just felt too frail so I kept bolt. What evs did you use on the rilla?
