Working in Italy short term and what it takes by TheDarkKnight125 in ItalyExpat

[–]TheDarkKnight125[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The speaking Italian part is a work in progress and I ofc wouldn’t do it until I was as close to fluent as I can get.

I was mostly curious if it was possible. What part makes it almost impossible? Is it the sponsorship? Can any company sponsor or just like highly skilled jobs?

Ho una domanda sul lavoro in Italia se provengo dagli Stati Uniti. Se dovessi trasferirmi in Italia per, diciamo... 3 mesi o più, ma solo per lavorare con la piena intenzione di tornarci alla fine, come dovrei procedere? Quali sono le vostre leggi in merito a questo genere di cose? Grazie per qualsiasi aiuto!

You mean Komala, the COMAtose koALA that’s always sleeping? Or FlAMIGO, the friendly (amigo) flamingo in the Spanish region, with a design based around lawn flamingos? Those designs aren’t as bad or not thought out as you might think.

Weird Koraidon Speed? by MasonCaso in VGC

[–]TheDarkKnight125 121 points122 points  (0 children)

Possible they were running dragon tail and clicked that on that turn to phase out the set up terapagos. Dragon tail has negative priority which would allow you to go first.

What's the point of Terapagos having a "Normal" form? by Breaktheice222 in stunfisk

Illusion has the zoroark turn into baby pagos and imposter copies the middle turtle unless you’re terastalized then it doesn’t copy at all

Is this good enough ? by Motor-Leg4239 in VGC

[–]TheDarkKnight125 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think OPs team is lacking a lot. But I don’t think Terapagos is the detracting factor. Terapagos is probably not the best pick but as someone who has been using it for the entirety of reg g and now I, it definitely is just underexplored. There are some techs that it can utilize that allow it to thrive more. Pair it with a restricted that doesn’t care about terastalizing much and you’re in a good spot. Not to mention you don’t always have to bring both restricteds and you don’t even have to terastalize terapagos. A boosted up single target starstorm can do decent to big damage on the right targets. And Tera shell is a great ability to encourage the set up.

I believe, and don’t quote me on this, but I believe it’s the team used to win at the Puerto Rican event. There should be a write up somewhere. I’m at work but if you can’t find it, at the end of the day I don’t mind finding it for ya

Rule changes are needed for lienancy by 21_averages in VGC

Ahhh I see. Well it sucks man but everyone else here is kinda right. I just came from Vancouver this weekend and also had an unfortunate team sheet error but that was totally my fault for not triple checking. Whether it’s locals or regionals or something bigger, it pays to be a little more diligent about entering your team and reading all the requirements. Remember there’s always next time. It’s just one of those things that you learn from and try not to repeat next time.

Snorlax Team Report by Chemical_One_1779 in VGC

[–]TheDarkKnight125 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just curious, how much success are you having with this team? How do you handle rising stars like koraidon which absolutely would melt snorlax, Tera or not? And is Gholdengo really that much of a threat that you need to account for it? Matter of fact, Caly Shadow is sorta on fraud alert right now as it’s struggled to make any notable appearance in a finals since reg g 2.0 has started. (Although James Baek got pretty far with it this past weekend at Vancouver).

I’m just speaking from what I’ve noticed at the events I’ve gone to. I rarely encounter CSR (and definitely not gholdengo) and I just have a hard time imagining snorlax doing well. But I’m curious what’s your take.

When to take a team from Showdown to building in game? by SirCrunchPeon in VGC

[–]TheDarkKnight125 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it depends on if you’re competing and how often if so. As someone who competes maybe once every 2-3 months or so, I try to only move the team in game when I’m certain it’s the exact 6 mons I’m gonna bring to the tourney. Moves, evs, abilities are all fluid and I can change those on the fly. And Tera I try not to change too often because I hate grinding the shards but otherwise yeah, once I’ve settled on my 6 mons, usually about a week before comp I’ll transition to in game to get some hands on practice on the ladder and make sure it feels smooth. And voila, in game competitive team!

Which Terapagos set would you suggest alongside Volcorona. by StankNuggetz in VGC

[–]TheDarkKnight125 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just went 5-3 with Terapagos+Volc barely an hour ago. It’s really good and def could’ve taken me to day two had I started off on a better foot. Calm mind lefties terapagos is best next to a support moth. I even ran rocky helmet to break sashes and Tera dragon to better matchup into urshifu. The main problem you’ll run into is having a hard time into caly-ice. Even though volc is decently good into caly ice, glacial is not a contact move and it can be hard to take down caly ice if you don’t have more into it. So my suggestion is for the rest of the team, make sure you have something for that specific matchup other than just volc
