Battle Tree actually has no Balloon Magnezone. Closest thing is a Shuca one.

I don't have a team atm because I'm back at the drawing board, so I'll just post the pokemon I've been using with most success

Leads peak 40:
Mimikyu:
Jolly,Shadow sneak/Shadow claw/Sword dance/Play rough/Lum berry
Lost because of status spam, play rough missing
Tapu Koko peaked 26:
Timid, Uturn, Thunderbolt,Grass knot,Thunderbolt / Life orb
Lost because a mega Camerupt wouldn't fucking die, even with a +1 earthquake from garchomp, it kept spamming fireblast
Kartana peak 15:
Jolly/ Leaf blade,Psycho cut,Smart Strike, Sacred sword Focus sash
I don't understand what I'm doing wrong with Kartana, I lead with it and it gets tons of kills but then everything seems to fall apart quickly, It's either status'd, or it dies to a "not very effective" move. Even with the standard EV spread 252/252 (speed/attack) I still get my shit kicked in.

Other mons:

I have Standard Jolly Garchomp, timid Xurkitree (don't like scarfed) And Def/SpD Aegislash who has saved my team many times,A HA toxapex and a standard mence, (though I don't like using it and hasn't really been helpful)I also have a Orangruru and a Torkal for Doubles, but I might abandon that because I'm garbage.

Maybe they have openings for Team skull

What is your excuse for not running Tapu Fini? That thing is like the anti-bullshit machine for Battle Tree.
>Misty Terrain protects your team from Confuse Ray, Swagger and Thunder Wave hax
>Also protects your physical attackers from being burned
>Enemy AI doesn't realize that Misty Terrain blocks confusion so they keep giving you free Attack boosts with Swagger
>Learns Haze to get rid of Evasion and (Special) Defense boosts on the opposing side and stat drops on your side (fuck you Minimize/Rest Muk)
>As if Haze wasn't enough it also gets Taunt and Nature's Madness (fuck you bulky stall)
>Great bulk and pretty good Special Attack too
>Has multiple viable sets (physically defensive, specially defensive, bulky offensive)
>Can viably run many different items (Leftovers, Icium Z, Tapunium Z, Terrain Extender, you name it)

Easily the best support Pokemon at the moment.

I don't really have anything to answer for psychic types, which are one of the things I keep running into. Koko is great, but it really can't take hits at all.

I know i'm doing something wrong but I can't figure it out and it's really draining, training and breeding pokemon all day(mons i don't eveb like). I might look for clone pokemon when the bank hits, at least it will be easier on my 3ds (and my sanity)

But i want to know what are some good natures for them, don't wanna fuck up and make them useless.

Mainly interested in the natures of Tapu Koko, Bulu, Nihilego, Kartana, and Celesteela.

Very similar to mine but I use Aegislash instead of Kartana. I made it to level 78 but lost to 7 turns freeze and a crit. I have Koko lead with focus sash + U-turn + Toxic. Toxic is a must to make sure Rotom and other stall shits die. Aegislash + leftover can stall them forever. Also, I suggest Crunch on Gya.

More dominantly ice, because he has 3 steel types in his team pool.

Since I ran alolan ninetails, and primarina, AND a weavile, that's:

Ice/Fairy
Water/Fairy
Ice/Dark

Incinerator is there to counter the counter attack teams, but of course I get fucked with RNG. I've gotten pretty far with this team multiple times in the high 30's, but I get shut down by RNG hacks every time.

Going to cave and train up my Tapufini to level 100 so I can hyper train it and stop getting fucked so hard. Primarina is great, but it's too slow and gets off misty terrain as the end of the turn instead of near the beginning. I also waste a move doing it.

Fini fixes that problem all together.

Super Singles,Doubles or Multi?

most of the battle tree composes of sub 90 speed pokemon. trust me, garchomp is fast enough to outspeed most.
i personally ran mimikyu as a lead with swords dance chomp as back up and used a staller. mega sableye and toxapex both worked well. got to 50 in singles with that

Dragon attacks are not quite up there in terms of reliability.

80 bp D Claw misses ohkos even at +1
100bp D Rush misses period
120bp Outrage has the element of confusion that adds rng for the game to fuck you over with. Also not reliable in doubles.

I mean I did consider it but volt-switch is much better for damage output and basically all of the ground types you'll encounter are physical attackers which Persian and Salamence can usually switch in safely on. Mega Camerupt is a different story but I really don't see U-turn being much help against him also my koko is timid.

Koko needs HP Ice and he runs either naive or timid.

Lele is built with Modest for a scarf or Timid with specs, some like HP Fire on it.

Bulu is Adamant, no experience with Fini, most say bold but I've seen some run timid for faster calm mind.

You'll need to hyper train for Hidden power though, otherwise you'll hunt for years.

Hey guys, does anyone know what happens if you scout the same trainer twice in the Battle Tree?

Like if I scout Cynthia while she's using, say a Garchomp, Togekiss and Spiritomb

Then I rematch her again later on and she's using Milotic, Lucario and Togekiss, then I beat her and scout her

Would her Milotic/Lucario/Togekiss team overwrite the Garchomp/Togekiss/Spiritomb team?

Or would there be two different Cynthia's to choose from when I want to do a multi battle?

If you like Mega Mence, it's a wonderful mon for every mode in the tree, I paired one with a timid Lele for doubles (Pheromosa and Celesteela in the back), and with Mega Lucario for Multis (Arcanine and Lele in the back)

If you are lucky enough, both Cynthia and Anabel have Mega Lucario, you can try to scout them

In general, I think the best thing you can do in doubles is to be as aggressive as you can

Bull-fucking-shit. Over the past 6 battles, I faced 3 teams with all ice types. I have a team of persian, garchomp, celesteela, and tapu koko.

So, what's a good way to deal with ice types? I want to keep persian + garchomp, and I definitely want something immune to EQ. I like the idea of tapu fini, but I don't think that'll fit in with the rest.

Just toyed around a little with the showdown calculator. Under most circumstances it doesn't matter but occasionally 31 does a percent or so more damage. So it all depends on how much time you're willing to burn trying to get that 31.

Gigalith is probably one of my favorites though. He just tanks whatever hits it, while sandstorm chips away and I can switch in Arcanine for that extra intimidate.

Gigalith is a bit lackluster just because of his extremely poor movepool.

Give Tapu Thunderbolt instead of discharge, since discharge will murder your starmie if you're in a bad position and need an electric move. The filler can be something physical that your team doesn't cover. If you really want to win, pair offensive Garchomp with Oranguru and with telepathy and instruct use earthquake to oblivion.

Hm, how about making Thunderbolt its filler move instead of outright replacing Discharge? The idea was to murder things as quickly as possible with spread moves, and replacing the filler move gives me both options.

Garchomp sounds like a good idea; any idea what item I should run for it? I was thinking Lum Berry or Choice Band. Or maybe the Berry that reduce Ice-type damage? I usually play Singles if you couldn't tell.

Oh, Tapu Koko might want Protect, though, if I'm going to be running Earthquake Garchomp. This is 4MSS at its finest. I guess it's a toss-up between Thunderbolt and Protect for Tapu Koko's filler move. What do you recommend? I'm leaning towards Protect since I could just spam Dazzling Gleam or Protect against Surf if it has to be on the field at the same time as Starmie.

Eevee w/ Eevium-Z
HP, Speed
Timid

- Last Resort
- Baton Pass
- Stored Power
- Yawn / Wish / Round / Hidden Power

Stored Power is worth running just so you have a fallback in case you get Taunted and can't pass your boosts.

Fourth move can be Yawn to make your passes better, or Round to deal with Dark Types. Sableye and Spiritomb can wall you, so you can also just run a neutrally effective Hidden Power. Wish is also nice to let you use it, Baton Pass and then restore the health of whatever comes in after, good with something like Multiscale Dragonite.

There are plenty of teams that can get you to 50 wins if they are well balanced. I used Dragon Dance Dragonite, Swords Dance Aegislash, and Choice Specs Tapu Fini for 100 wins on singles so you could try that.
And yes, everyone gets the same experience and EVs, but the power items only have effect on the Pokemon that holds them.

Leading with Tapu koko/Life Orb and Dragonite in the Back, and my partner is Wally with a Mega Altaria and Magnezone. Here's one thing I learned from the Multi's so far, Try to get someone with megas but make sure they don't have set up moves, Altaria nukes everything with Gigidrain and Dragon rush but there has been close games because it rather set up then attack the opponent who literally has 1 hp left. Tapu Koko Nukes everything, but I'm wondering if I should take life orb off for more staying power, will I stop getting those OHKO if I take the life orb off? Or should I just replace it with something else? It's been really helpful but I find my HP goes down way too fast.

Not much trouble except for Red himself at battle 50. His Lapras dodged a Mimikyu hit or two (may have had Brightpowder), so Garchomp came to clean that up and got Char-X down enough to where Toxapex took it out with scald. Venasaur was tough with only Toxapex, I had to PP stall it until it Struggled itself to KO.

Otherwise, Mimikyu and Chomp just swept through pretty much everyone else, with Toxic stalling when rarely needed

Naughty Nature with 252 Atk/Spe EVs works well enough. I beat Super Singles without losing once. See >>31079392

I ran Double-Edge, Earthquake, Fire Blast, and Dragon Dance. However, I recommend dropping Dragon Dance for Roost. There were plenty of times where I wish I had recovery, thanks to Double-Edge nuking everything, and Dragon Dance never really saw use at all.

I'd run mixed, just replace Fire Blast with Flamethrower so you don't miss. Fire Fang has a chance to miss too and it's pathetically weak against physically bulky Mons like Skarmory. Also, with Flamethrower Ferrothorn doesn't hit you with Iron Barbs.

I've faced that set too. It's Toxic / Stockpile / Double Team and probably Rest as its last move. Typical luck-based bullshit. There's also one Cresselia set in Maison that runs pretty much the same moveset, not sure if it made it to the Tree.

It's the only STAB you need. When I say Double-Edge is a nuke, I meant it.

>>31080491
I only ever used it against things like Ferrothorn and Scizor—things you can afford a miss against and are doubly weak to Fire. The only time it would be a problem is when your HP was already crippled from Double-Edge which is why I recommended Roost.

>>31080559
Flamethrower might work instead (I haven't done any damage calcs against Battle Tree opponents), but I choose not to risk it and went for more power. I suppose if you run Roost like I've recommended, you can afford any 2HKOs that might cause.

If you have two versions on hand, trade between them.

Easiest solution is to grab a level 100 pokemon, turn Exp Share on and just blitz through the E4 - preferably with multi-hit attacks or Mold Breaker effects so you can bypass the Sturdy mons.

Not exactly. Moody is situationally overpowered- if it boosts stats that help the pokemon repeatedly- a bunch of +2 stat boosts at the end of the turn without any opportunity cost is incredibly overpowered.

It could also stack up boosts on stats that don't help the Pokemon, essentially doing nothing. It was banned primarily for removing the skill element from a match involving Moody, the luck factor rises dramatically and that was deemed non-competitive. Pokemon certainly has a luck factor to it but Moody was considered excessive.

If you don't have a flying type then protect away. As for garchomp you want a life Orb, simply due to the combination of that and its stats allowing it to muscle through physically bulky mons with super effective hits, uninvested bulky Pokémon with neutral hits, and even weaker Pokémon with not very effective. A swords dance lets you pass through physically invested bulky mons with a neutral hit. One other thing to look out for is that with protect, I'm pretty sure moves like blizzard dazzling gleam and hyper voice then give garchomp the fully expanded dong when it only hits one Pokémon. That's why earthquake is good when you have a flying type/protect mon and the opponent has one.

I fucking hate Multi Battles. The AI was doing perfectly fine until Battle 40, when I got locked in Tapu Lele's Psychic, and the last Pokemon happened to be A-Muk. My teammate was a Cobalion and instead of using Close Combat, it spammed Quick Guard until we both died. And I can't even upload the video. I am so pissed right now.
