I feel like im getting trolled. Ive gotten to 46 4 times in a row, and it seems like the ai just brings a set of pokemon that is just retarded but somehow counters my team 100%

Do you even get anything for getting to 50? Ive already got multiples of most items and all the mega stones besides shit like glalienite.

Conquered the Tree as of today with Super Doubles as the last one I did.

Super Singles (110 wins):
Leftovers Drampa, Mega Scizor, Scarf Tapu Lele

Super Doubles (50 wins):
Scarf Tapu Bulu, Mega Metagross, Black Sludge Toxapex, Figy Berry Snorlax

Super Multi (50 wins):
Life Orb Tapu Koko, Mega Scizor
AI Partner: Scarf Entei, Sitrus Berry Terrakion

Since it's fresh in my memory, Super Doubles really put me to the test in the 40s with one game in particular having Volcarona, Arcanine, Typhlosion, and that OHKO move spamming Walrein.

Although not as powerful as life orb I've found pretty good success with expert band Kartana with leaf blade, sacred sword, x scissor and smart strike and rarely do I have to send anything else out.

X scissor is mostly for psychics, I haven't really encountered too many poisons

What set on weed grampa?, I'm interested on making one, though I already did the 50 singles.

>>30864174
It's very good, if you want you can put just enough speed to outspeed base 100s and the rest in HP, every point in HP makes garchomp more annoying, but I think standard is still pretty powerful.

I'm about to start super doubles, my team is Z rockinium Nihilego with MegaLuke, and celsteela in the back, I was thinking on putting Garchomp or another dragon that can cover me from super bulky water types, which seemed to spring a lot in normal doubles, any suggestions?

Drampa was max HP max SpA, Modest Berserk. I had it to cover Electric and Fire and Ghost among other things.

Draco Meteor, Flamethrower, Roost, Calm Mind

And regarding your Super Doubles team, I'd advise putting some means of dispatching Sash Hypnosis Gengar asap. That was who messed up an earlier Super Doubles run I did with Specs Kommo-o and LO Nihilego leads that had gotten pretty far. I accounted for it with my Scarf Bulu being able to smack it and Metagross's Bullet Punch being able to break Sash so it'd die. For my Super Multi, both leads outsped it.

Thanks on Drampa, I'm going to breed him and the deino from Island scan, I fucking love me some dragons.

I actually ran into that Gengar in normal doubles, I actually did this: Protect with Jelly (Gengar targets it because dream eater is SE or I was just lucky) and Luke uses 2 bulletpunches in a row, I'm actually aware of it, but I'm not sure what to carry, do you think Tapu fini would be ok?

It's pretty good, but make sure it has Haze, it can save your ass from any stat boosting asshole like red's megazard x, Toxapex carried me from everything up until you find a mega venasaur or nasty ground and psychic types, so carry some dark types and ground immune pokes, but be warned, turn animations off, stalling is not suitable for them.

Mine stalled 3 mega scizors and 1 life orb scizor like a champ

Funny you mention Fini since that was the one Tapu I didn't use. I considered putting it in the back but I didn't like that it had no reliable recovery (plus I thought it more interesting to keep the 1 Tapu per run quirk and had elected Bulu for that team). In your case, I think a Fini can help, putting it in the back. It'd be a breaker with like Taunt, Nature's Madness, Moonblast, and some filler move, maybe Heal Pulse or Haze or Brine.

Toxapex is hella good for switching into bullshit garbage Tree mons.

Run it alongside 1 Setup Mon(Mimikyu is good) and 1 Mega/Heavy Hitter who doesn't need to set up to fuck things up, using Toxapex as the annoying Toxic/Scald-Burn wall.

I returned it to the default and the default trainer battle song still played over their theme songs. Seems stupid that you have the choice of changing the battle songs to something less annoying as the default trainer battle song, but then when you battle the trainers with unique battle songs they don't play.

Also a note on Z-moves: they don't miss. Pretty good for evasion cheesers. I've had to blow it on a low-hp target more than once because it needed to die now and I knew it had brightpowder.

Finally beat the Tree with my team being

Tapu Koko @ Life Orb
Ability: Electric Surge
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Thunderbolt
- Dazzling Gleam
- Whatever you want based on your team coverage but Grass Knot and HP Ice if you can get it are both good
- Volt Switch

Lead with him and he'll give you very good results with his great damage. If the enemy throws out a special wall or something that hits hard and can most likely survive a Thunderbolt all you have to do is Volt Switch out of there. If you're up against a Ground-type just Grass Knot him if you have it or manually switch out. You can go with Specs too if you prefer it

Tapu Bulu @ Choice Band
Ability: Grassy Surge
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
Adamant Nature
- Wood Hammer
- Stone Edge
- Superpower
- Horn Leech

This hits like a freight train especially with Wood Hammer, it outright kills anything that doesn't resist Grass and critically dents the mons that do as long as it isn't a 4x resist or something. Even with that though I didn't really spam it that much and instead played it safe with Horn Leech. STAB, Grassy Terrain, Choice Band all coming off of Bulu's impressive attack stat means you'll still hit hard but with the added bonus of an awesome heal.

Salamence @ Salamencite
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Double-Edge
- Earthquake
- Roost

Hits like Bulu but has the freedom of not being locked into a move. I used Mence more of as a cleaner to prevent the Double-Edge recoil from becoming too extreme. Roost is great for when you eventually run into a stallmon since the recoil will start to annoy you in matches like that if you're not using Earthquake. Dance complements Roost in stall matchups nicely as well. If the recoil annoys you too much go with Return instead but there's a decent loss in power. Also Intimidate is great for telling physical attackers to go to hell.

I know it wasn't using a focus sash because my Weavile outspeed it and managed to clean it up, but then Mega Tyranitar solemnly ended my streak.

My brother and sister have been hitting up Multi-battles lately, and they discovered that the game will lean the generated trainers in favor of shit that counters your team, particularly your lead-in, and double if they've been killing shit hard. They saw the exact same Pyroar (and the rest of that team) 4 times in 10 battles because my brother was running Dhelmise. They took a break and switched Dhelmise out of the lead slot and immediately stopped seeing the Pyroar.

This isn't even in Supers. This is regular Multis.

As a Braviary user and someone who uses one competitively at that, lemme tell you that sheer force Braviary is kind of shit. Really shallow movepool to use it with even with the move tutors in ORAS.

Just broke 20 in Super Singles. On my first try, no less. Any thoughts on my current team?

Mimikyu w/ Life Orb
Ability: Disguise
Nature: Jolly
252 Attack / 252 Speed / 4 HP
- Shadow Sneak
- Play Rough
- Shadow Claw
- Swords Dance

Alolan Ninetales w/ Focus Sash
Ability: Snow Warning
Nature: Timid
252 Sp. Atk / 252 Speed / 4 HP
- Aurora Veil
- Blizzard
- Moonblast
- Freeze-Dry

Xurkitree w/ Psychium Z
Ability: Beast Boost
Nature: Timid
252 Sp. Attack / 252 Speed / 4 HP
- Hypnosis
- Tail Glow
- Thunderbolt
- Hidden Power Ice

The strategy is to lead with Mimikyu and immediately Swords Dance unless it's in imminent danger of being statused or something. From then, I try to sweep with Shadow Claw and Play Rough for as long as possible, using Shadow Sneak if I suspect priority or getting outsped. Depending on the opponent's mon, I then either swap to Alolan Ninetales and set up Aurora Veil or to Xurkitree to meme on them with Z-Hypnosis and Tail Glow.

I almost got cucked by Colress (was expecting a turn 1 Gear Grind from his Klinklang, but the madman actually used Corkscrew Crash and did 3/4s of Xurkitree's HP) but aside from that I've been doing pretty well.

Just in my experience, I found that using Leech Life on Mimikyu over Shadow Claw was really great for letting my bro last longer in the fight. Shadow Sneak does enough damage after a SD to KO most things it's super effective against.

I'll consider it. The main reason I chose Shadow Claw over Leech Life is that it has a decent BP (better than Shadow Sneak) along with 100 accuracy; it's generally safer to use Shadow Claw over Play Rough unless I know I need the extra damage or Fairy typing.

If you use a lum berry, you'll get taunted a lot and if you use a mental herb, you'll get hit with status a lot.

I suggest mental herb because there's still a chance Oranguru can use TR/instruct with a status, but if it's taunted it can't. You can also use a fake out user to flinch some Pokemon that can status/taunt Oranguru so TR can go up more consistently.

Speaking from experience there are very few things that you won't be able to 2hko with just Shadow Sneak if you're at 2.5x attack level (Z-Splash and SD+LO do about the same damage)

Shadow Claw is basically redundant in that respect, Play Rough is perfectly good neutral STAB and something like Leech Life is great for restoring health as well as being a 100% accuracy move on normal types you need to finish off. Wood Hammer is another good option in case your team has a water weakness, but I don't really like using it with Life Orb.

Z-Hypnosis Xurkitree is very high risk + high reward. Undoubtedly makes it all the more fun but that unreliability will get you killed when the AI starts cheating.

I recommend Hariyama with guts since fake out can help Oranguru set trick room, then it hits hard. Unresisted close combats can OHKO a lot of Pokemon and you can instruct+rock slide to flinch opponents.

Other slow, hard hitting Pokemon like Drampa and Marowak are good too. You might want to use a second TR setter as well because if Oranguru gets KO'd without setting it, it's basically game over.

I also recommend Oranguru to have inner focus. It's a lot more helpful than telepathy since they will try to use fake out on it so often.

has anyone tried triple wall? i was thinking of swapping out the two UB for my unaware mimikyu for setup sweepers who i can poison and outlast, and toxapex as a fairy blocker and stockpile for super tankyness, althoguh haze is less useful when i have pyukumuku to fall back on...

You will find these mons work almost all the time, the only trouble you'll face is when the veterans start showing up with the genies and the mega lati twins, those can easily end your streak with their busted bsts, especially the mega lati twins, so make sure you run some calcs for them, tornadus loves spamming hurricane, and most legends have lax incence, so watch out for that too.

>>30891442
Nihilego doesn't need assault vest really imo, the extra power of LO makes it so it can sometimes sweep entire teams on it's own, granted it gets beast boosts and you're not getting outspeed by fast eqs or powerful physycal users, scarf chomp is popular with wally and cynthia

How do you get more people to choose from for Multi battles? Is it the scouting feature?

Adamant.
Give it an Ass Vest, then it becomes somewhat Bulky.
Got to 50 and Beat Red with him, MegaMence, and Kartana.

Attack and HP, Golisopod isn't outspeeding anything.
Mine has 3 priority moves in the form of First Impression, Aqua Jet, and Sucker Punch anyway.

In case you don't know, the last move is Leech Life.
Gives him even more survivability.
Also works with Emergency Exit sometimes, letting him fire off multiple First Impressions.

yes
generally you should scout bosses (battles at intervals of 10) and anything you beat that you had a really hard time against such as legendary teams

Run it alongside a ground type? Go full kamikaze and hope you power your way through teams.
