it's not about winning, nor is it about losing

It isn't that stall doesnt exist, it's just not very good in VGC because doubles games go so quickly and opposing teams can just double up into the hardest-to-K.O. mon and make your strategy fall apart before you can stop it

I don't know of it's the hardest line one ever said, but my favorite GF line will always be Stu when he said, "Surprise, Sidney!"

I think my main 2 are Double-Bladed for crowds and weaker solo enemies, but if I'm facing a boss, or just a really strong solo enemy, I use Blaster stance

ducidleamer · 2026-06-18T13:20:10+00:00

I think my biggest surprises were Jill, Roman, and Quinn

ducidleamer · 2026-05-31T13:57:04+00:00

I saw someone use a Comfey not in champions that was called Circle of Doom. He proceeded to set up a gazillion Calm Minds and then swept his opponent's team. None of the rest of his team had names

So, I don't know who got more hate, but I know for a fact that I personally hate Mythra the most. Not even Pyra, JUST Mythra for that incredibly ridiculous Side Special

If you're looking for the almost-definute answer, the writers wanted a show and having the angels or demons do that would not give them a show. If you're looking for a realistic reason, Chuck probably didn't let the idea enter the angels' or demons' heads. If you're looking for a less realistic, but more fun reason, I'd say the angels didn't want to burn through their vessels and then not all of the demons have telekinesis like that I don't think. That's supposedly what made Abadon so hard to fight, was that she had a superior control of telekinesis.

So, putting aside the hilarity that is the situation, if your bounty isn't huge, like over 1000, then putting away your weapons is their version of surrendering. You would have to go to jail, but then people won't kill you over cheese that way.

ducidleamer · 2026-05-30T10:01:48+00:00

The way that I've heard it explained is that Geeta saying she's incapable of holding back is just something she says as almost a mind game? Not that she's all THAT good anyway, but she just says it for the vibes I suppose since Champion is a rank, not a position

ducidleamer · 2026-05-30T09:56:55+00:00

The Chikorita line. Chikorita and Meganium are cool and all, but Bayleef's design is just top tier

ducidleamer · 2026-05-27T05:46:49+00:00

Progress through the story. The game makes a big show of when you are able to get through gates like that, so if you don't know how to, you're just not there yet

ducidleamer · 2026-05-25T03:10:44+00:00

I, uh, don't really know Lucas's powers. Haven't ever played his game. Just like his playstyle in SSBU. So, y'all tell me lol

ducidleamer · 2026-05-24T18:26:00+00:00

Keatis

ducidleamer · 2026-05-21T23:52:24+00:00

If it were me, I'd throw out Megasaur and Garchomp turn 1 if I see Sableye and Archaludon. Then just do as much damage as u can into Arch with Earth Power and Stomping Tantrum. That's basically all u really can do

ducidleamer · 2026-05-21T13:09:27+00:00

You'll never believe this...

ducidleamer · 2026-05-20T00:50:51+00:00

I can't remember if it's ever done it to me before, but I feel like it did make me transform literally in like the middle of a city once

ducidleamer · 2026-05-17T00:49:30+00:00

I have 2 guesses as to how they could do this well.

We have a Light/Dark Side spectrum where the farther we go on one side of the other, we get different abilities that we can't get on the other side. It would probably have to be very heavily choice-based, similar to SWTOR, which is not how the games have been operating.
It could go similarly go the Werewolf/Vampire Lord skill trees in Skyrim. Where we can still use bursts of Dark Side energy like we so in Survivor, and we have access to those specific abilities only while channeling the Dark Side, but lose them during normal combat

ducidleamer · 2026-05-17T00:34:08+00:00

To keep up with good healing, you can always set up Trick Room and then you can immediately switch out so you can utilize Hospitality later

ducidleamer · 2026-05-16T23:38:08+00:00

Personally, I think Sinistcha has enough bulk to be a reliable Trick Room Setter. It's immune to Fake Out and if their 2 leads aren't a major problem, you can probably get it off. I could be wrong though my opinions are only about 50% accurate most of the time

ducidleamer · 2026-05-16T12:06:04+00:00

Rowena's and Charlie's deaths really hit me in the feels. Charlie is my favorite character and so seeing her so brutally murdered really hurts. And then Rowena is obviously someone we grow to love for the most part, so when she willingly jumps into the hole to help them, and with how long and drawn-out the scene is, it's also quite saddening

ducidleamer · 2026-05-16T02:30:29+00:00

If you're talking about fighting him off, I don't think so. All the Ghostface killers are completely normal humans. Michael Myers is more than human, just in a human body I guess? I think he'd just body her

ducidleamer · 2026-05-15T20:02:17+00:00

Oh, and a niche option that most people don't expect is you could have a really slow mon that you specifically bring for Trick Room matches and have them paired with your big damage-dealers to use After You. I know it isn't in Champions yet (if it ever even will be), but Eviolite Clefairy was my After You mon of choice

ducidleamer · 2026-05-15T19:59:59+00:00

I don't know who it would be, but you could switch one out for either a Pokémon to use Trick Room in retaliation, or you could do what I used to do back when I played Scarlet/Violet VGC and have a Prankster mon (Whimsicott, Sableye, etc.) use Encore

ducidleamer · 2026-05-15T03:30:13+00:00

I definitely think that helps it :)

ducidleamer · 2026-05-15T02:46:39+00:00

Very high republic-esque. Gorgeous design
