/vp/ - Pokémon » Thread #42900187

Yeah, I keep getting fucked though because I'm running into Bo1 teams that think it's cute to take regular VGC teams and switch shit around where they get to build momentum off me dealing with it like it's regular shit.

Yeah, about 50/50 with the wins right now (out of 6 games played).

What am I doing wrong bros? How can I improve the team for next time?

Shouldn't Duraludon be Timid? I think having partial SpDef investment makes sense with Assault Vest, too.

I just got my battle in to get my in-game shirt. Cheers to any Edgars out there. That free win was for you.

Yeah but I'm not doing as well as I do in the regular doubles ladder. Maybe is because there are more good players hunting for points, or maybe is because I'm using a meme team with claydol

Did they fuck up, or is this what they're actually doing for VGC comps now since CP is on the line? It seems like way too much for one weekend.

Oh I totally forgot about it. I signed up so I guess I gotta do one match for the t-shirt. I'd be more interested in if I could use my gigantamaxes but they're still not legal till march.

Thats an error surely. It's supposed to be 15 per day, 45 total. Are you misreading it?

Nope, the in-game regulations page says 45 a day. I was watching a stream earlier and he played 45 matches at once. Serebii's page says it's 15 a day but I don't know if he was making an assumption or if an official announcement originally stated that.

I checked the Switch console's news page article for it and the rules say "15 a day".

The 45 seems like a fuckup.

Standard Sand with Sylveon kind of fucks you up. Also neither Duraludon nor Vanilluxe should be Naive. If youre running AV Duraludon I believe you dont invest in speed. Also, Body Press is bad, use Dragon Tail or Solarbeam (especially since you also running Inteleon).

Oops it is timid, that’s just a mistake I made in the paste. I do have a Careful Duraludon but haven’t tested it out yet

Sand I haven’t been having too much a problem with because Inteleon outspeeds if I lead with Whimsicott and it’ll still OHKO ttar in sand with Max Geyser, but it’s definitely not easy. I’ll think about changing Vanilluxe’s nature, but I wanted to not cuck the ice shard if needed. Duraludon is timid, it was just a type. Will def think about switching body press to Solarbeam after this tourney

Why does it only run for like 2 days? I thought these used to runs for months at a time.

this is a special competition and they usually lasts 3 days, what you are thinking about is the battle season that is usually a month (current season ends in 2 days or something like that)

I was playing a match earlier and a Dragapult hit me with Sucker Punch while Psychic Terrain was up. Shouldn't this have failed? Psychic Terrain was definitely up, it didn't disappear until two turns later.

Trying it, but the VGC format feels so gimmicky and unfun

Every team uses some kind of meme strat and the game seems to be entirely about learning them all, knowing which Pokemon can execute them, and picking ones that ruin the strat based on team preview
