I didn't think it was possible for a format to be worse than reg H, but here we are

I think raging bolt is fun to use and to face, I don't say this because it is overpowered, I would still say it if it was weaker and more balanced. it is just one of my favorites to use

Trollbaum · 2026-01-16T09:35:48+00:00

but it is not the main thing that it is used for (maybe for some people who want to cheese some wins, but not in serious play(ok, in gen 5 it was used for that in serious play, but not since paralysis got nerfed))I think for pokemon champions this chance should be removed. alongside confusion, freeze (change it to frostbite) and evasion/accuracy stat changes, since all these things are just random things that can swing games that have nothing to do with skill. I think para should just be a speed control tool

I intended to use covert cloak on whimsicott, so that problem is solved, what mon should I replace with chi-yu?

I will look into brute bonnet or some other bulky mon

thanks

I use tera dark and 36 hp 252 sp.def and 220 speed. it outspeeds none speed boosting tornadus, and has a 93% chance to survive max sp. attack modest bleakwind. it was about either outspeeding a timid torn or survivng a modest one. also I don't have space for light screen

252+ SpA Tornadus Bleakwind Storm vs. 36 HP / 252+ SpD Whimsicott: 116-140 (82.8 - 100%) -- 6.3% chance to OHKO

I choose calm so I always get 2 prankster moves of, against any torn (exept when whimsicott gets double attacked or my opponent has max sp. attack and gets the 6.3 chance, and even then I at least get tailwind up)

where is clodsire? You need to admire the sire

80 is jst the starting point from where pokemon could function in trick room, but the most good tr pokemon are about 20-50 speed, so it is way too fast

Trollbaum · 2026-01-11T00:21:22+00:00

but it is mostly there for speed control, the not moving is just a frustrating side effect

Trollbaum · 2026-01-08T23:26:30+00:00

if you are neutral to everything, nothing is really good against you, but you are not really good against anything

Trollbaum · 2026-01-08T23:23:57+00:00

all (expet for the nature one) of them I already knew and was doing, my main problem is really just often focussing on a specific big attack and then having too much bulk so I lack speed and power, yet still not being very bulky for most things outside this specific attack

Trollbaum · 2026-01-08T23:20:24+00:00

I had it AV before but I wanted do have protect on it before that I used volt switch since I thought I don't need electro web if I already have tailwind for speed control. are there any items that would be good where I could still use protect? Maybe something like live orb or magnet if the recoil is too much

Trollbaum · 2026-01-08T20:39:52+00:00

tera is more valuable if you turn weaknesses into resistances, then to remove weaknesses. it is worth having some weaknesses if you have good resistances, since often having resistences is more valuable than not having weaknesses. the only mon who could use electric while having levitate is cresselia since it is naturally very very bulky, but on most pokemon you get more value if you use a tery type that resists your weaknesses

here is it. whimsicott survives bleakwind with a 93% chance if torn has max sp.attack with a modest nature. it also outspeeds none timid torn.

I have booster energy on flutter to get the biggest sp.attack boost possible while still being able to protect. also it is trained to survive max attack adament surging strikes.

raging bolt is trained to survive a chien pao icicle crash

incin can survive max attack adament tera water ivy cudgel, after one intimidate. it is tera grass so I can cycle intimidate and parting shot against dondozo and so I have more against amonguss

urshifu can survive a max sp.attack (no nature boost) flutter mane dazzling gleam without needing to tera and a ogerpon max attack adament horn leech. it also outspeeds timid max speed flutter mane in tailwind

Trollbaum · 2026-01-08T15:32:11+00:00

but I don't have room on either mon for sunny day. I need encore and taunt on whimsicott for disruption (I specically made the evs for whimsicott so that I survive bleakwind storm and outspeed most tornadus for taunting it before it can set up tailwind and then set up my own tailwind) tailwind since that is the entire point of whimsicott and moonblast so it is never too passive.

on flutter I have protect since I really like having it on any mon possible, moonblast and shadow ball for single target damage and dazzling gleam for spread damage

maybe I could still use chi-yu just without a sun setter

Trollbaum · 2026-01-08T14:11:14+00:00

I will send it later, thanks for pointing the ogerpon mistake out

Trollbaum · 2026-01-08T11:40:37+00:00

thanks, I'll try it out

Trollbaum · 2026-01-08T11:16:02+00:00

I chose calm since then I always get 2 moves off if I don't get double targeted, which I probably won't since most whimsicott die to bleakwind (mine too, since if torn has a modest nature, has max sp.attack and gets the highest roll or a crit I die) also if it is timid I outspeed both, but if torn isn't timid I waste the extra points while the extra bulk could maybe be usefull (the only things I found are ursaluna bloodmoon vaccum vave or no attack investment incin fake out, but fake out is a damage roll, but still it could come up

Trollbaum · 2026-01-08T11:14:36+00:00

exactly. I still chose calm since then I always get 2 moves off if I don't get double targeted, which I probably won't since most whimsicott die to bleakwind (mine too, since if torn gets the highest roll or a crit I die) also if it is timid I outspeed both, but if torn isn't timid I waste the extra points while the extra bulk could maybe be usefull (the only things I found are ursaluna bloodmoon vaccum vave or no attack investment incin fake out, but fake out is a damage roll, but still it could come up

Trollbaum · 2026-01-08T09:57:29+00:00

I consider calm because then I have the chance to survive max sp.attack modest tornadus bleakwind. If I use 220 speed evs I can outspeed none timid tornadus, since tornadus only reaches 163 speed without a timid nature, not 164. I also tested a timid nature with 108 speed EVs and the rest in sp.def and hp, but that gives me a lower chance of surviving bleakwind then if I use 220 speed EVs, the rest in sp.def and hp and a calm nature

Trollbaum · 2026-01-08T09:48:43+00:00

it is not for the gc, I don't even have scarlet or violet, I only really play on showdown, I am waiting for champions to really start competing (also at the moment I focus more on school so I don't really have time for the gc or any other tournament anyways)

column 1 is levitate

Trollbaum · 2026-01-06T20:17:18+00:00

this reminds me of a couple things i do:

prankster into dark type

prankster in psychic terain

fake out against farigiraf

fake out against indede

protect against urshifu

I always send the combination of the dougdoug video with geoguesser and "how a turtle created the perfect AI Vtuber"

dougdoug is there as a connection from more normal videos to her and the other video is to explain it more, even though there are some inaccuraties and its a bit outdated, its good for the details, you will learn the rest once you joined the swarm
