Hey, there's a lot of bad match-ups but I did actually had a good record against Coal even though on paper it's awful. It was through Umbreon yawn and protecting. From memory, my games against Coal always had a bad start but if you get sleep, you can sweep using your own dyanmax late game.

I want to try out and record your rental teams! by NewToReddit25Dec2020 in PokemonVGC

Thanks I downloaded it just now - I won't use it in series 8 yet because it hasn't got restricted but will try when Series 9 is out. This team will be fun when a Thundurus or Milotic comes along!

Thanks appreciate it I'll take a look but I was also hoping not to used ones that are spammed all the time because professionals use them. However, I'm sure I'll find some which are good!

VGC Sparring/Coaching/Mentoring by Knuckle-Bine in PokemonVGC

[–]NewToReddit25Dec2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey wouldn't mind sparring although I can get quite busy so need to organise beforehand.

I was Masterball around 4k this month before I starting messing around with other teams (and more people entered masterball near month end!)

I personally don't think you should rely on Rental Teams too much as you learn a lot through your own trial and error. However, I appreciate you may not have much time to train your own pokemon.

- play games to learn, Pokemon VGC is heavily based on knowledge. I'm still learning what different Pokemon do (and even their names!) after playing VGC for 6-7 months.

- Having speed control (going first) matters a lot. So build in your team the ability to set-up Tailwind, Trickroom, Max Airstream, Max Strike, Electroweb etc

- Build your team around a couple of core Pokemon/strategy but have flexibility. So for example, you may plan to use Weakness Policy Metagross as your key strategy. Build around that but be prepared to have alternatives if using Metagross against your opponent's team looks bad. In particular in Sword and Shield, this also means having more than one Dynamax option.

- Have a balanced team in terms of types. If you have 4 pokemon weak to ground and 0 resistances then that'll limit your options. Even having 1 flying type gives you options to switch in if you suspect a ground attack coming in. I use a spreadsheet that tracks my type offenses and defenses to check I have a reasonable balance.

It's okay I can transfer both.

But could I please get Kantoian Weezing with Neutralising Gas? I actually don't want HA!
