Sitting comfortably at 63 win streaks so far, Ash-Greninja doesn't disappoint. Although Mimikyu has been putting in most work. Megamence is really just there in case of Megas, it hasn't done much.

The only way that turtle faggot could've outsped my Primarina is if it was Jolly with 252 Speed. Even then I ran a damage calc and it could not have OHKO'd my Primarina while being Jolly nature. I'm still maximum pissed about this since I was on battle 43.

Need opinions and ideas.

I need a quicker way to reset evs other than waiting 48 hours for some stupid fucking berries to grow and then having to do it again to fully reset evs. Is the fucking QR team thing running yet, or is there a tool yet to create QR codes for that?

Also, I need opinions on the best moves for a Golisopod, Kartana, Mimikyu team. I need something to replace Struggle Bug for Golisopod, and best possible physical moves for Kartana (and possibly a better ev spread). I've gotten farther than I've used to with this team (a streak of 5 on normal, boy oh boy), but I think i still need these fucking ev's. It's just such a bitch getting them up to level 50 while also ensuring they don't fuck up the EVs.

What? No. How is that a question.
Go for the best move.

Do not run Sucker Punch. Run Aqua Jet.
A decent Golio set is

First Impression
Liquidate
Shadow Claw
Aqua

Shadow Claw so you don't get shat on by Jellicent and it's just good coverage.

Max Atk and HP. If you want, you can run enough speed to outpace something like T-Tar but speed is hardly worth it when you're packing two priority moves.

Lost my 5 win streak thanks to Jolteon. OHKO my Golisopod with thunderbolt, swaggered my koko into crippling it, the aerodactyl finished it with rock slide, Kartana takes out aerodactyl and is left with only air slash against lucario, instantly outsped and BTFO with Aura Sphere.

Fuck my life, is there something I'm not getting?

seems ok, since you have golisopod for priority

keep in mind that sacred sword does not receive extra damage for beast boost. it's best used when unboosted or for cracking through stockpile/curse walls. i might recommend focus sash, just because i like having that on one mon

regenerator is amazing, it lets you use toxapex as a switch-in tank, then you can swap it out to heal it if needed. its special attack is pretty low, so merciless crits aren't going to be very good.

you want either calm or bold, with scald, toxic, recover, and the last one is up to you (haze for stat reset, protect/baneful bunker for stalling, ice beam for dragons)

black sludge is important for recovery, but leftovers will do in a pinch

There goes my 41-win streak. Dugtrio was in the red, and Tapu Koko was my last mon. It would've been able to survive an Earthquake since Aurora Veil was up, but this kind of pisses me off.

You can do something against flinchhax and evasion, but there's really very little you can do against this 100% OHKO rate. This thing might keep my attention for longer if this kind of thing wouldn't show up.

Flamethrower+Eq for Steel types, fire blast is unnecessary unless you can compensate for a miss.
Thrash+Draco Meteor for max damage output, especially since they'll start throwing dragons at you eventually
A DD set would be cool too though since intimidate gives you more set up opportunities

I just got off my game to come post my anger in here. I just got to battle 49 in super singles and had an unfeazant avoid thunderbolt three fucking times in a row. I would have obviously won, it was against my Tapu Koko but noooo 3 fucking evasions for literally no good reason. It wasn't even using bright powder?

Fucking cucked out of my 50 streak by a motherfucking unfeazant, that's low.

Anyway my team:
Nihilego
Timid @ Focus Sash
Power Gem
Thunderbolt
HP ice
Sludge Wave

No stealth rocks because honestly I've found they have little impact.

Buzzwole
Adamant @ leftovers
252 HP, 4 ATK, 252 SPDEF,
Power Up Punch (fucking amazing shit)
Poison Jab
Leech Life
Rock Throw

Tapu Koko
Timid @ Expert Belt
Thunderbolt
Grass Knot
Dazzling Gleam
Natures Maddness

I put in natures madness because it's either that or weak HP ice that Nihilego's already got going for it. Good for cutting down bulky opponents before KO too. I suppose toxic can be pretty useful in that slot too.

I honestly only use Koko to stop the fucking hypnosis/snore/thunder wave bullshit - especially when that thunderwave belongs to togekiss which has been the biggest threat I have found in the entire 2044930293 battles I've had in there.

I agree with the laughable rock throw, it's more of a tester I was using and it ended up working really well. I will probably swap back to earthquake tho.

I was using assault vest and he just did so much worse, maybe it was the specific opponents but leftovers has been working out so much better because I usually switch in on something physical or bulky (garchomp, lucario, scizor, avalugg, tauros, blissey) and rampage with power up punch. Assault vest does absolutely nothing here, and after PUPing leech life carries through the damage of specials.

Honestly, there are more bulky/physical threats in battle tree than there are special, or at least the special threats are dealt with already by Nihilego or Koko.

I used to fear 49 for its Veterans but if you roll one of those it will just be Raikou or Cobalion spamming attack moves instead of pulling out some arcane bullshit invented by satan himself.

Also I think every single loss I have incurred in Battle Tree has been to stallers with Curse or Leech Seed, using Rest or Sub so I can't even Toxic their shit, often something like 4x parahax on my sweepers and then when i have one fresh pokemon left they spring that shit on you and your typical counters are gone.

I currently don't have much in SM and I can't inject either so currently I'm just fucking around with the few Pokemon that I have and experimenting with new strategies. Gonna have to wait for Pokebank to get my old Maison bros maybe break my old streaks there (~160 victories in Singles, ~240 victories in Doubles).

Anyway, I want to talk a bit about Tapu Koko, because that thing is a monster. If you want to get quick Battle Points, try out this set:

Tapu Koko @ Choice Specs
Ability: Electric Surge
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Thunderbolt
- Dazzling Gleam
- Grass Knot
- Volt Switch

Even with a mediocre team that has horrible synergy, I can reliably get to 40+ just with the raw power of Tapu Koko alone. This boy outspeeds almost the entire game and its Thunderbolt flat out OHKOs many offensive Pokemon with mediocre bulk and 2HKOs literally anything bulkier that takes neutral damage from it. Just like how M-Kangaskhan was the go-to Pokemon in Gen VI for quick and easy Battle Points, I think Tapu Koko does the same thing in Gen VII. Now I'm just trying to think of a proper team to support this guy.

Tapu Koko's main problems are Ground-types, opposing Electric-types, bulky Grass-types and Steel-types, so I was thinking that Ferrothorn would be a great teammate for it. Another good partner would be Landorus-T with Flyinium Z, but I have to wait for Pokebank to get these Mons into SM. What would be good third Pokemon for these teams? (Koko/Ferrothorn/???, Koko/Landorus/???)

I can't believe you got 50 victories with that team. Kartana with neutral nature, Pelipper with a bunch of horribly inaccurate moves, practically nothing to benefit from the rain other than Pelipper itself, and finally two Pokemon with a double weakness to Ice but no switch-ins for said type. Sure, you made it to 50, but the team isn't very good and I'm sure you realize that.

I think for nearly every battle from 40+ onwards the AI would lead with a Rock or Ice type against my Salamence. Nearly every single lead they used could survive its Double Edge, or hit it for SE.

I saw Glalie about 4 times in a span of 7 games.

Also you know Veterans and Youngsters? They use pretty much all sub-legendaries in the game - of course, you'd be forgiven for not knowing this because apparently all they ever use is Regice, Cobalion, M-Latios. This seemingly random assortment of legendaries either resist or hit dragons for SE damage, it's a really interesting coincidence.

People always meme about busted RNG and confirmation bias, because simply put they are armchair theorising and don't actually play Battle Tree enough to understand that being paralysed 8 times in a row is not a very common situation.

But the "team is designed to counter yours" thing absolutely happens, you will never even SEE 33% of the available Battle Tree pokemon if they are countered by your team.

Also, I was one of those retards who caught all the UBs befor realizing I could've gotten Abras and Synchronized for decent Natures. Believe it or not, that was the best Kartana of the 4.

Basically what tends to happen with my current team is this:

Kartana and Pelipper lead, Drizzle activates and weakens Fire attacks while boosting Hydro Pump and making sure Hurricane never misses. I fully invested in Pelipper's HP and went half/half with the remainder on Def/SpDef. Focus Sash works as a fallback measure in case Kartana would've gotten OHKO'd anyway (unlikely from most Physical Attacks). Pelipper actually hits pretty hard and tends to stay on the field a good while. Rock types weren't too much of a threat with Kartana there and the general low-accuracy of Rock-type moves. The Electric-types I encountered would easily be cleaned up by Garchomp.

Blizzard is there in case an opponent changes the weather to Hail. Rarely used it, but it worked when it needed to somehow. Soak would be there if the opponent sends something bulky that Hydro Pump or Hurricane couldn't do much against as Kartana's Leaf Blade would then be super effective. Kartana normally takes out at least 3 mons before it goes down too. Sometimes I go full matches without losing either lead.

Most Ice-types I encountered were leads as a result of the CPU's response to Garchomp and Salamence being on the field at the same time in the previous match so they're easy pickings for Kartana.

Mega Salamence there to deal with other megas and Garchomp's Z-Move helps me take out hard-to-kill stuff without endangering my Kartana should those two end up on the field at the same time.

>get 5 kills in Battle Royale even though it used all my pokemon because the AI collectively refuses to do anything but protect or target me
>I "lost" but the guy with 2 kills and one pokemon wins

So Battle Royale is a mode where being a passive bitch wins even though you have less kills and more deaths than other players?

Did Gamefreak actually think this mode through?
Did Justin Trudeau design this mode?

I mean it completely fails the first test of any children's game - being intuitive. I predicted protects and exploited windows as much as I could but it didn't matter because the sheer act of doing anything makes you the loser.

Just spam protect and steal kills to win, the biggest coward wins and whoever breaks the ice and actually does anything gets buttfucked. Rewards bad play, punishes aggression, doesn't make any sense and is boring as fuck.

How is something this fucking terrible a finished, released mode?

I'm assuming you don't have PKHeX because you would have used it already, but if you're not against injecting I suggest that you find one of those injecting threads and ask for a proper Kartana. Those threads are regularly visited by a couple of injectors who give Pokemon for free to people who provide them with QR codes for generating them. That's how I got two of my three Tapus too. I think injecting legendaries is perfectly fine since trying to get perfect legit ones is very difficult and time consuming and you're going to be battling perfect legendaries in the Battle Tree anyway.

Finally got a streak of 50, it took a bit of trial and error but got it.

I decided to go with Tapunium Z on Koko because occasionally he wouldn't quite pump out enough damage on a few things. It worked incredibly well. I also swapped Rock Throw for Earthquake on Buzzwole. DESU EQ was a very minor change, it helped boost damage a bit but overall it was Koko's change that made it all possible.

Not even mad cause it was 100% my own fault but god damn if I'm not discouraged a bit.

Running Mimkyu, Mega Mence, Koko. Mence never had a chance to get off even one EQ and after I panic switched to it after Raikou got off an +2 Calm Mind.

I guess I should drop Roost on Koko for some more coverage. I had it running Dazzling Gleam/Thunder Bolt/Taunt/Roost.

I've been thinking of breeding a Mimikyu too. What's the best set? I've been thinking something like this:

Mimikyu @ Life Orb / Lum Berry / Red Card / Focus Sash
Ability: Disguise
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Play Rough
- Shadow Claw
- Shadow Sneak
- Swords Dance

What's the best item for it? Is Red Card just a gimmick or does it actually work? Also, I'm not a fan of inaccurate moves (in this case, Play Rough), so are there any viable alternatives? I really wish it learned Brick Break for that perfect Ghost/Fighting coverage. Share your opinions and experiences.

>>31026409
>I had it running Dazzling Gleam/Thunder Bolt/Taunt/Roost
Thunderbolt / Dazzling Gleam / Grass Knot / Volt Switch is the best set in my opinion. If you really hate Grass-types (Tapu Koko has trouble with those) I guess you could run a mixed set with Brave Bird instead of Volt Switch, but it's better to have a teammate that deals with Grass-types.

Mimikyu & Kartana is almost a staple on these threads.
I got myself a 80 streak with them and salazzle recently, losed because I didn't use shadow sneak on a scarfed eruption typhlosion.
Mimikyu is a fucking beast in the battle tree, give him some status protection and he can sweep teams alone.

>Kartana
Good, I've got a pretty good one that works pretty well in Singles.

Kartana@Muscle Band
Adamant, 4HP, 252 ATK, 252 Speed
-Leaf Blade
-Night Slash
-Sacred Sword
-Smart Strike

I tend to use a mix of the following alongside it; what would be the best combinations?

Buzzwole@Leftovers
Careful, 252HP, 4def, 252SpDef
-Roost
-Bulk Up
-Lunge
-Poison Jab

And one of the following:

Nihilego@Focus Sash
Timid, 252 SpAtk, 4 HP, 252 Speed
-Power Gem
-Stealth Rock
-Toxic Spikes
-Sludge Wave

Xurkitree@Zap Plate
Modest, 252 Speed, 252 Sp.Atk, 4 Sp.Def
-Tail Glow
-Energy Ball
-Thunderbolt
-Volt Switch

Hydreigon@Dragonium Z
Rash, 252 Sp.Atk, 4 Def, 252 Speed
-Dragon Pulse
-Draco Meteor
-Dark Pulse
-Flash Cannon

Celesteela@Shell Bell (intend to swap for leftovers eventually)
Rash, 252 HP, 252 SpDef, 4 Speed
-Air Slash
-Leech Seed
-Heavy Slam
-Flamethrower

Salamence@Salamencite
Intimidate->Aerialate (sic)
Sassy, 252 Speed, 252 Atk, 4SpAtk
-Flamethrower
-Dragon Claw
-Scary Face
-Double-Edge

I know, I should breed it to get Dragon Dance on there but I haven't got the chance to do so. Any other good picks that would work well with Kartana? That 4x weakness to Fire is definitely something to be addressed.

Kartana is a fantastic sweeper that can pretty much solo at least 75% of Battle Tree team, then for backup you can carry anti-cheese mons like Mimikyu and Mega-Sableye, defensive powerhouses like Aegislash and Celesteela, or other offensive destroyers like Mega Mence and Tapu Koko/Lele

Why not Life Orb?
You get a free one, and Kartana's fragile enough for 10% to not matter when being attacked.

Is the boost even that big compared to the muscle band? As far as I can tell, it's a fairly steep downside compared to the risk-free nature of the muscle band. Espeically since it has just enough defense to survive a couple of hits, which means that extra HP does end up counting for something.

Muscle Band is a 10% boost, Life Orb is a 30% boost.
I guess it's up to you to decide if that's substantial enough.

I wonder if there's a way to use the Tree's "counter teams" to your advantage.

When I lead with Pheromosa, I see the same goddamn Froslass every other battle. It's immune to my Focus Blast/Fightinium and resists Bug Buzz and Ice Beam, so I guess the game sees it as a counter when in reality I just Quiver Dance and shit all over it even with resists. The game sends the fucker at me constantly and it's a free QD/Beast Boost every time.

Yes, but I expect the fire and fighting types to start showing enough to make the HP loss not worth it. Plus, it OHKOs most things just fine without the LO.

More importantly, which of the Pokemon I listed make its best partners?

You'll want something to switch moves that would be SE against Kartana into, so MegaMence would be good.
Kartana and MegaMence are on most people's teams anyway, the third one is practically a free pick of whatever you like.

That's when you switch to your fire/fighting counter. For me that's mega Salamence, who is one of Kartana's best partners besides Lele.

I'm currently using a defensive Sub/Roost/DD set on mine and it shits on almost all of Kartana's counters

Well, the mega-mence I have now isn't too bad, but the sassy nature is definitely an issue, as is not having DD. I was planning to breed it to mitigate that though.

Also, this is mainly going to be for Singles. For doubles I was considering bringing out Top Lel, but I'm not sure if Naive would be the best nature for it.
