I need battles of the testing variety, trying to hammer out my line up, also need to test an alternate type to see if that's even an option. Who down to stomp on me for a while?

>>31243941 I could definitely use practice, last time I fought someone was mid-December.
I think I already added you for an injection request yesterday.

Good games.
sorry about that crit quake on toxapex, it was probably the reason i won that second battle Jae 1521-5783-1508
>>31244205 that poison team has typing issues, very big ones and not so great coverage lol. thanks for the battle
Anonymous
>>31244217 What type are you registering for?
why do you have 4 different monotype teams in the first place Jae 1521-5783-1508
>>31244228 i dont have 4 monotype teams, i have 4 variations of dark teams and 1 poison team that I thought might be able to hold its own, which i don't think it can in hindsight. my dark teams are split from 2 into 4 because i have 2 variations of the same pokemon so i wanted to test which is more effective.
Anonymous
>>31244265 Oh, that makes more sense.
I have 4 different ice teams too, and 2 of those just have the same team member but with a different moveset.
I haven't registered because of that, but I'll probably go with the team I used against you.
Jae 1521-5783-1508
>>31244281 I don't even know if I want to register to fight anymore lol, I need more testing and showdown is ass.

>>31244333 Exactly.
I think his point is that Showdown isn't really a good place to practice for this tournament, because it allows legendaries and uses 6v6.

Practice battling for this isn't super important, it's more about knowing what issues your monotype has and how you can address them. Most are super obvious when you think about meta staples and how the work.

Your team is pretty good. Before using Dark I was thinking on normies too. Had almost the same team except Staraptor, and was planning to use Trick room on them

Quoted By:
>>31248503 I was actually considering dark before I chose normal. My team probably would have looked like yours, but I would have put Persian on there somewhere.
I never considered using trick room on this team because it never works when I use it singles. Seems like it could be fun though.

I mean mons maaaybe but if you put say 3 extra grass mons on your team cause your fighting water first, you'll screw over yourself the rest of the tournament. But I can see why you'd not be allowed to switch mons last minute.
Switching moves last minute before your first battle (and not switching them after obviously) I don't see a problem with.
Regardless when Callum says no more changes. No more changes.

Hey everyone- I'm not involved in this tournament, but i am having a small monotype competition with three friends of mine in about a week, and would love some advice or suggestions about my team. Ive never really played much more competitively than Battle Facilities, Battle Spot, and vs friends, though all of us EV train and IV breed. Effectively, everybody battles everyone else, most wins is champ (and wins 10 dollars from everyone else). No legendaries or UB allowed. I will be using Steel Types, and my friends will be using Bug, Ghost, and Dark My team so far is: Skarmory@Leftovers? Mental Herb? Careful Nature, max HP/SpDef - Spikes - Whirlwind - Brave Bird - Roost Magnezone@ Choice Specs Modest Nature, max HP/SpAtk - Volt Switch - Hidden Power Fire - Thunderbolt - Flash Cannon Aegislash@Weakness Policy Brave Nature, max HP/Attack - Sacred Sword - Shadow Sneak - Iron Head - King's Shield Metagross@Metagrossite Jolly Nature, Max Speed/Atk - Zen Headbutt - Earthquake - Bullet Punch - Meteor Mash Lucario@Life Orb Modest Nature, Max Speed/SpAtk -Aura Sphere -Flash Cannon -Vacuum Wave -Nasty Plot I'm not sure what i should put in my final slot- i was considering Scizor, but my Bug training friend is using one, so I'd prefer not to. However, there's really not a huge number of Steel Types in Alola. However, while that limits my options, it's also very helpful in that it stops my friends from steamrolling my entire team with Volcarona or Mega Houndoom, for instance. Is A-Sandslash viable at all in Singles? If anyone could help me out, itd be great. Sorry for interrupting your thread :)

Quoted By:
>>31258435 Sandslash is pretty mediocre without Hail support.
Scizor is good, but you're right in that it compounds your fire weakness too much.
Have you considered Dugtrio?
Being ground type and being able to learn some rock moves via TM might help.
Sorry (0232-8027-7992)

>>31258588 Then just use Dual Screens you memer. It still resists its main STAB and has a broken typing. Skarmory is useless in every monotype aspect that isn't Smogon's 6v6 and you're not facing any ground or fire users to set sneaky rocks or survive EQ. You will never use Metagross in all of those matchups.

On another note- from what i know of my friends teams- Ghost friend is using Chandelure to counter me, and is also bringing Mega Gengar, Dhelmise, and Mimikyu. Dark can threaten me with Pangoro and Krookodile, and is also bringing Hydreigon and either Mega Sharpedo or Sableye.
Bug friend cant threaten me too much with whats available in SM, but what can i do to counter the others?
Also, i like Bastiodon's design. How useless is he?

>>31259095 >>31259095 Invest on SpD to survive Chande's Fire Blast and go for Shadow Claw instead of Iron Head since you never need Steel STAB on many stuff. Nothing can touch Mega Scizor after you get rid of Hydre and Chande besides a Sableye burn. I hate Luke to death, but slap a Scarf and spam Aura Sphere I guess, dude is too slow and Vacuum Wave is illegal until bank, might as well use a physical set and switch in into Justified boosts for mindgames. Bastiodon is the worst. Google Alolan Dugtrio or something, I hate when people ignore it. And like I said, you're never going to use Metagross in these matchups.
