GG Dredikkus, another close one for me tonight. Your team is weird, awesome, and very effective, which is fitting for the type you've chosen.

>>31228466 I got close combat staraptor, which takes care of fighting.
I was thinking tauros with sheer force, but NO IRON HEAD kills that idea. It gets smart strike tho, so it MAY do some damage.
Mayriux 4640 0242 6084
>>31228505 sash toucannon MAYBE,
but then dies to storm.
Drampa cloud nines in, but then dies.
Staraptor Close combat, but not to ninetails.
Tauros might do it with stone, earthquake and smart strike for ninetails. Is smart strike enough to kill an average ninetails?
JoJo the Ex Ground nigga
>>31228466 Any decent Ice user doesn't lead with Aurora Veil lmao every time. It makes you predictable and easy to counter

>>31228526 252 Atk Life Orb Tauros Smart Strike vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Ninetales-Alola through Reflect: 211-250 (73.5 - 87.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
Good enough.
Don't forget that Tauros has base 110 speed, compared to A-Tales' 109, so it probably won't even get to set up Aurora Veil in the first place.
>>31228540 It's astounding how many people on Battle Spot immediately bring out their A-Ninetales counter.
But because of that predictability, I don't think I've ever actually used it.
Mayriux 4640 0242 6084
>>31228563 But if it does???
Meaning that if I misread.
Now I need to replace something for tauros.
Maybe Kangaskhan, but then I am screwed against sableye.

Can someone upload the battles to youtube?
Atlas 0791-1025-1013 !TOASTgjAl.
>>31234297 I wish there was a straightforward way to do that. best way I know of outside of modding your 3DS with expensive capture equipment is to record your screen with a camera and upload it. Which is super trashy-looking.
What would be awesome is if someone could create a system that uses replay codes and accesses the battle information out of the server it's stored on for viewing as a video. I feel like this is something Showdown could figure out.

I finally completed my first fully IV/EV'd and legit team and decided on a monotype ghost team before even seeing these threads. I was sorta tempted to participate but when I entered Battle Spot I got utterly slaughtered. The team I built was intended to be for 6v6 because the only competitive Pokemon I had played was Pokemon Online and Showdown and didn't know formats were only 3v3 and 4v4 for Battle Spot in Sun/Moon. I don't think I'll be going through with this event but could someone look over my current team and tell me what to keep and what to box/change so I can enjoy Battle Spot a little? I still wanna keep it monoghost and possibly keep the Mimikyu, Decidueye and Palossand as they're all shiny. Froslass @ Focus Sash Ability: Cursed Body EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe Timid Nature - Spikes - Destiny Bond - Taunt - Ice Beam Sableye @ Sablenite Ability: Prankster EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 SpD Impish Nature - Fake Out - Foul Play - Recover - Will-O-Wisp Mimikyu @ Red Card Ability: Disguise EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Shadow Sneak - Swords Dance - Leech Life - Play Rough Alolan Marowak @ Thick Club Ability: Lightning Rod EVs: 248 HP / 16 Atk / 112 SpD / 132 Spe Adamant Nature - Flare Blitz - Bonemerang - Shadow Bone - Toxic Decidueye @ Leftovers Ability: Overgrow EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD Impish Nature - Leaf Blade - Brave Bird - U-turn - Roost Palossand @ Weakness Policy Ability: Water Compaction EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpAtk Bold Nature - Earth Power - Giga Drain - Shore Up - Amnesia

>>31239571 Ghost user here, have some advice.
Hazards are kind of pointless in mono. Maybe stealth rock but I imagine spikes won't have great use.
Megas aren't allowed, sableye must have a different item. Mine runs prankster as a wall breaker and set up breaker. The BL2 set on smogon is a nice set.
Leech life is not a good move on mimikyu. Mimikyu is very frail so leech life will barely help. i reccomend shadow claw for STAB and good power. Personally I think life orb is the best item for it.
I don't have much experience with the others. I ran a similar set on palossand and didn't find it reliable at all. Also shadow ball is better then giga drain in my opinion. Maybe we can play sometime.
