I spent like 2-3 weeks making this team and now I don't even want to battle with it anymore. Breeding was more fun. What now /vp/?

Stop battling passersby and arrange actual battles. Plenty of people on Smogon to battle with.

The thing with showdown is that everyone uses the top of their tier. What's the fun in the same battle over and over?

Battle Spot and VGC are that but even more, except instead of Aegislash it's Kangaskhan. :^)

I mix it up a lot when I play. Random battle is really fun too.

matchups are based on how many wins you've had. Win more and stop fitan tards.

>Insisting on playing 6v6 Singles on cartridge

If you want to play on cartridge, there is a *whole fucking format* curated by professionals and with irl tournaments.

If you want to play on cartridge and have a fulfilling time, play VGC rules; it has its own dedicated ladder, a timer designed to keep games snappy and put the pressure on you, and a community of dedicated players preparing for regional- and national-level tournaments with money or physical goods as prizes.

If you want to play 6v6 Singles, a format that's been abandoned by GF itself and picked up by fans with bans to keep it playable, go play it on Showdown. That's where the 6v6 Singles ladder is, where the only 6v6 Singles tournaments are and where people come prepared for the grindfest that 6v6 Singles can be.

Could try another monster game. You might really like Dragon Warrior Monsters. That's a fun game with a breeding mechanic, albeit, not as 'deep' as Pokemon's.

>talking shit about crustle
crustle is like the best shell smasher, it can even hold a white herb if it has to because of sturdy. not to mention the suggested set has amazing coverage

The prevalence of priority moves and 45 base speed mean you're just going to get killed after shell smashing. Bug is my favorite type and I want crustle to be good but it just isn't.

if I can get off a clean 2 boosts (rare but it happens) then the other guy is in trouble. If he gets off one clean one then he's taking at least one opponent mon with him

with custap berry it's a usable suicide hazard lead, though that isn't even available in x/y yet, but shell smash on it is garbage
