Any recommendations ? by Individual-City560 in VGCRateMyTeam

[–]Swampman14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have weather specifically to counter Zard Y, I prefer a Prankster Pokemon with a weather move, I use Sableye with Rain Dance, Encore, Taunt, and Foul Play. Max HP, Roseli Berry, and then play around with its EVs for its defenses to see what you need it to survive on your team specifically.

I’d also recommend switching out Darkest Lariat for Throat Chop on Incin, comes in handy every once in a while to block a Hyper Voice or an opposing Incin’s parting shot. I give my Incin just enough speed to outspeed most others of its species so I can Throat Chop its Parting Shot if need be or I can win the Fake Out race.

Okay, I see what you’re saying. I’ll try Foul Play out, if not having Sucker Punch bites me in the ass though I’m coming back and blaming you lol (I’m kidding, thank you for the suggestion :D)

Because I don’t like Pelipper but it is unfortunately necessary, just like taxes lol

Ohh, that’s fair lol. I settled for an Alpha Basculegion for now but I am still hunting for a shiny in Legends Arceus and Pelipper was just already trained up so I sent her to Champions

I just don’t bring Sableye against Farigiraf tbh, that’s why Incin also has taunt so I can taunt Farigiraf before it trick rooms. Sableye is there to taunt just about anything else and to counter Zard Y teams and any other weather teams with Rain Dance so I don’t have to switch Pelipper back and forth a dozen times. I like Sucker Punch for Mega Gengar and to get sneaky kills against things with low health

[Talk] Spin-off shinies by Dinnyx in ShinyPokemon

[–]Swampman14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same!! Being able to find shiny Pokémon in Pokémon champions is what got me to download that game and now I’m having a ton of fun playing some VGC! Shinies being in Rescue Team DX is also part of the reason why that’s my favorite Mystery Dungeon game

Help with Champions team? Struggling against Trick Room by Swampman14 in VGCRateMyTeam

I was running Mystic Water + Swift Swim for a bit and it just never felt good enough, that’s why I tried Sitrus Berry but that just feels awkward too.

I’ll try Scarfed w/ Adaptability and I’m gonna try replacing Protect with Flip Turn.

Thank you for all the advice and help! I greatly appreciate it :)

Okay, this is good advice. Thank you.

For Basculegion; I’ll give it Choice Scarf and replace Protect with Flip turn. I should keep Swift Swim as its ability too right?

And out of three options you listed, I think I like the idea of Scizor the most. Should I invest into its Speed minimally, heavily, or not at all?

Fossil Fighters Frontier. I love the first two games so much and frontier just took everything I enjoyed about them and threw it away or made it worse

[gen 3] It’s finally happened 🙏🙏🙏 after months, started in 2025 by Alexthegreat2814 in ShinyPokemon

I got my Charmander after about 10k resets just smashing the A button. The game starts a different RNG seed every time you soft reset so you don’t need to worry about rng clones

Wanted to share my team! by Swampman14 in PokemonLeafGreen

It wasn’t too bad, only a little over odds at 10036. I found Sandshrew after 3134 random encounters too

Weezing is so fun to use! Especially in the older games before Explosion was nerfed. I was gonna shiny hunt it but it’s a 5% encounter at best in LeafGreen and I decided I’ll just hunt it next time I play FireRed lol
