>>30404876I would suggest using teams made by others for now. Just go and copy the team of someone from high in the ladder.
Try, see if it fits your playstyle and see if you can put it to good use. If face some problem, try fixing that problem instead of changing your whole team. If you don't overall like the team, try another one.
Most important of all, keep at it. Don't stop after a day or a week. Keep at it and you will get good. The more time you spend, the better you will be.
It worked for me. I didn't copy anyone's team, because I wanted to build a team around my favorite Pokemon, but I did learn a lot watching the ones at the top of ladder fight.
Felt great when I, someone who had no past competitive experience, beat everyone in a tournament we had on a forum I frequent, with only around 2 weeks of time to prepare.
