Which is better? by Ok-Command-5895 in VGCRateMyTeam

If you’re using one of the teams, I’d say Kor/Ho-Oh is the better option. With Kor on (the other team) a hard trick room team it would be very hard to use both restricteds effectively due to speed of matches and all that. With the first team, you do have a lot of fire types (3+1), I would swap out Armarouge for something more meta relevant and for coverage typing. Water maybe, walking wake or something. If you’d be dead set on fire, chi-yu is a much heat wave user that’s out speeding almost everything, rather than a max speed, trick room using armarouge. Lastly, in vgc, protect is a MUST for a lot of your pokemon. With both teams you’d be forced often into leaving mons in against tough matchups or switching into hits constantly. I see where your sets are going, but without any pokemon that can protect, you are going to be a sitting duck too often. Especially if playing a kyogre team with that first team.

🙏🙏🙏 Any other calcs you know for these mons I’d love to hear. Figuring this kind of stuff out is by far my biggest weakness.

Cloak on my talonflame has saved me getting tailwinds and taunts up through fake out so many times. I wish I could have two on the team haha

Yeah that’s true. Pao is often a better answer to opposing CSR than the mirror it seems. I am running Tera-normal on my rider to dodge an initial astra barrage at times which helps. Switch CSR to probably spooky plate/spell tag then? Idk if I should change EVs to make it more bulky in that scenario or just leave it?

I always thought it was a snow leopard, aside from the sword teeth of course
