Hey guys, I'm looking to run Klefki as a lead in an upcoming VGA doubles tournament being held. I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on the following duo as an opener and possibly what other two to run with them? Klefki @ Damp Rock Prankster Bold 252hp/def 6sp.d -Rain Dance -Swagger -Thunder Wave -Foul Play/Protect Goodra @ Assault Vest (This works with rest, correct?) Hydration Modest 252hp/sp.a 6def -Rest -Muddy Water -Fire Blast -Dragon Pulse(draco meteor?)/Ice Beam/Something I've forgotten This is my first attempt at building a doubles team so any help would be appreciated! Would dual screen Klefki with Gooey/Sap Sipper be better perhaps? I'm also hoping to run perhaps Kingdra and Kabutops both with swift swim (unless there's a better phys damage dealer with swift swim, been out of competitive for ages and don't remember much)

>Goodra @ Assault Vest (This works with rest, correct?) no

Run a mental herb on klefki to stop taunt Battles rarely last long enough for damp rock to matter

>>15649113 Honestly, I just hadn't looked yet and wanted confirmation, thanks though. Any other recommended items intstead? Maybe just lefties?
>>15649137 Swanston? Yep.
>>15649208 That's a pretty good idea really, will try that. Would taunt be worth running on Klefki too actually?

>>15649252 It would be, but Klefki cannot learn Taunt.

I'm going too, pretty new to competitve battling. just gonna go have fun. was thinking of running a klefeki with duel screen for it as well. the guy hinted that there would be alot of trick rooms, whats your plan for that?

>>15649340 With this idea? I don't really have a plan for it. I do have another team that a friend and I designed that should have the priority to beat trick room, but it could be a pain.
I'm also just looking to go and play for fun.

Trick room doesn't work in singles because it only lasts 5 turns but since doubles is so fast paced it one of the best strategies there (rain teams are also good)

>>15649741 Is there anything that actually removes Trick Room from the field..?
>>15649769 I forget what it stands for, but it's 4v4 double battles.
>>15649853 Maybe some sort of retarded nicknamed Pokemon? Or something on our clothing? I really don't know.

You can also pair it with imprison so the opponent can't use trick room at all (as long as that mon is alive)

>>15649909 Hmm, is it worth devoting a whole slot to to counter it? I mean, I suppose it does make sense against other trick roomers, but against non-trick room teams it would seem like such a wasted slot.
>>15649992 Honestly I have no idea. Something simple for us to look out for though.
>>15650021 Or there's this. Was thinking XxMLG420BLAZExX or something. Seriously though, I'm open to ideas.
