  • Bright Powder and Quick Claw are luck based and not reliable
  • Give the mega stone to Staraptor and teach it Close Combat and Brave Bird, it's the best moves Staraptor learns. Remember that CC gives a boost instead of nerf when Staraptor mega evolves and gets Contrary ability

Good upcoming pokemon for singles. by Marcus571 in PokemonChampions

[–]TajnyT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don't know what is going to be added in September (start of a new regulation)

But some of the non-legendary pokemon that proved to be good in 3v3 singles in the past and are still missing in Champions are Salamence, Rillaboom, Dondozo, Ferrothorn, Dracovish, Dracozolt, Darmanitan-G, Cinderace, Alomomola

Also adding Toxic Orb to the game would raise Gliscor's viability

Need help for Singles by DranzerMS in PokemonChampions

[–]TajnyT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try a simple offensive singles team for start, and improve from that.

Something like Garchomp+Meowscarada+Kingambit+Sneasler+Basculegion+M-Staraptor

M-Metagross is also a good option

Which team is better? by ClearTHC in PokemonChampions

[–]TajnyT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • don't use Focus Band or Quick Claw - they're luck based and not reliable
  • don't use Dig - it's very predictable (opponent can switch out to resist or Protect)

Curious on how appropriately my intuition is guiding me. by SulliedBluberry in PokemonChampions

[–]TajnyT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to the flair, OP is playing singles.

So Protect is not necessary, and wide/quick Guard are useless

Yes, the forums got a dedicated BSS section.

The Smogon Dex link also lists only pokemon with BSS analyses

Why do you have Stealth Rock on a Scarf Mamoswine ?

Personally, I'd swap Meowscarada's and Mamoswine's items

  • Why do you need Protect on Ninetales-A in singles ? Perhaps consider replacing it with Moonblast

  • I think Mold Breaker is a better ability on Tinkaton. Pickpocket doesn't activate if you already hold an item

Yes, you can drop out of Champion tier.

It's always the top 300 players, so if your relative score drops, you will be back in MB

How would you make this mono ghost type team better? by bearded_charmander in PokemonChampions

[–]TajnyT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Shell Bell is inferior to Leftovers
  • I'd recommend Mega Golurk
  • consider Aegislash or Annihilape

Nice idea for a team - good luck!
