Got to the 1400's in DPP OU recently. It's not crazy, but it's decent considering the top 500 leaderboards start at 1500.

because people here really dont play competitively or trade much here, both huge aspects of Pokemon

its why /wfg/ is as dead as it is, despite battling and trading being huge parts of Pokemon. most are here just to shitpost or coom or simply to talk about miscellaneous things like hacks or shiny hunting or nuzlockes, the last 3 arent so bad though but tend to die out fast

som format noone cares about but its my favourite one, i guess this score isnt that good considering most of the people that ive been fighting at this level dont know how to play the format and just use gimmicks on the ladder

People here don't even play the actual games, let alone competitive, let alone play competitive so often that they need a simulator just to do more battles more quickly.

I have not played competitively since dropping after weather wars.

Now I'm so far behind, whenever I get the itch to battle I just do randumbs

It's a useful simulator because you don't need to obtain the pokemon before you go competitive. You can just jump right in if you've got a strategy.

True, dynamaxing and Zacian are pretty gay but it just makes it all the more satisfying when you beat em

I've never played Swoosh so I don't know how dynamax works exactly beyond "pokemon get bigger and stronger"... but it seems a little bit unfair on the surface

I've tried to get into competitive, but I can't get the hang of it. My elo has only ever reached 1200.

I play Gen 7 OU because I never purchased a Switch IRL.

What would be a good textbook team to try?

Reminder that if you use legendaries you're gay, casual and underage. Doubly so if they're shinies.
>Y-YOU'RE JUST SEETHING THAT YOU LOST G-GIT GUD
No, I beat your unstrategic brute force method ass every time and the second your failsafe legendary with all the stat boosts keels over, you inevitably forfeit lol
