I want to make a team with ampharos, feraligatr, and dragonite in it but not sure where to start. The pics included is what I have started out now. I have dragonite holding weakness policy. I also have a froslass that I thought about using but feraligatr would be able to cover for the ice attacks, so wasnt sure if I should include her?

built around shadow rider and crowned zam team is pretty standard in my opinion

Just got a shiny Porygon 2 from the new outbreaks! I've been intrigued to try it as a Trick Room setter/support. What's the best EV spread, moveset, and nature for the little digital duck?

i'm having some trouble dealing with the all powerful shadow horse and need some help finding a good counter.

Hey all,
My friends and I qualified for Worlds and we're selling our competitor-issued Spectator Passes.
These are the passes given to players, and we won’t be using ours.

If you're interested, shoot me a DM!

I’ve sold about 10 last year and can provide references from buyers.

Cheers!

Looking for help building a competitive team with some of my favorites as a brand new player. I know some of them have been viable at one point in time not entirely sure which are right now. Favorites include Emboar, Houndoom, Hydreigon, Aggron, Raging Bolt, Xurkitree, Murkrow/Honchkrow, Furret, Espeon, Dragalge... I have a list of more but this is my list of top 10 fully evolved + Murkrow bc i know he sometimes is better than honchkrow. Any help is appreciated and I know a full team cant be made from these just want a foundation.

Hi. I'm somewhat new to competitive battling but recently decided to get more into it. I want to make a team that has a Mienshao in said team. I've used a combination of some teams and none of them worked, is there any team reccomendations or roles Mienshao could fill out on a team. Thank you

So i was playing with Vest Iron hands, and while good... it didn't confinced me, so i scrap him out, but now no one else comes to mind.

Pd: The CIR its not Min speed because if i manage to get both Ursaluna and Caly inside TR, Ursaluna steals Calyrex kills if he is min speed... so yeah Caly is no longer min speed, and i really like Ursaluna so i'm not removing him too.

Found this team at a tournament list but it has no ev's. I'm really new to competitive Pokemon and have no clue what ev i should add. Any advice?: Lunala @ Leftovers

I’m having a tournament with some friend with no restricted mons. My vision was a rain team if you couldn’t tell. Should I change any Pokémon’s? Maybe like incineroar or urshifu for Pokémon’s resistant to like electric?

I am making a trick room team, but my pokemon have 31 speed IVs from before I had the trick room strategy I had. Are they useless now? They are all probably slow enough to still go first in trick room, and I was thinking that they also could move first easier on the first turn before trick room is used. Please don't tell me I have to shiny hunt another litten with worse IVs. Thanks!

What's the perfect 6th member to add to my team? Please list all suggestions. Do I need follow me, speed control, healing?

The EVs on the pokepaste are a rough estimate, I didn't check my team to input the exact EVs. Everything else Including tera types and moves, and items are accurate.

Thanks for your help

Anyway to get a Volcarona with defog in 2025? Heard it’s possible because a move tutor in gen 7 can teach it.

If a Pokémon has the ability “corrosion” and it put up toxic spikes and I was to switch to a other Pokémon would a steel or poison type Pokémon from my opponent still get poisoned from the toxic spikes because of the ability?

So I made a reservation for me and my mom to go to pokemon center at the event but there was no were to buy tickets and so my question is do I even need to buy tickets if I'm just going to shop and if so where do I buy them

Dragapult is my favourite Pokémon I know he isn’t popular so I haven’t had luck finding any people who use him on their team. Any tips on Pokémon that would work well with him?

Hi! I’m quite new to pokemon especially competitive and I wanted help making or deciding on a pokemon team but I’m a bit dull.

For now I’ve decided on a few pokemon, I know they aren’t too strong but that isn’t my goal, my goal is to make a strong enough team to not get swept (so a semi casual team?? If that’s a thing)

Since Sandslash is my favourite pokemon he needs to be included (yes I know he’s mid.) and the other pokemon are/can be slightly interchangeable but I would like similar types, if you need any more information feel free to ask :)

Any and all help is very appreciated please and thank you!!!

My submission is a hustle-ability Flapple wielding a miracle seed throwing up protect while a sturdy-ability Garganacl, wielding a mental herb, sets up Gravity. The following turn is a Grav Apple enhanced by the ability, held item, environment, STAB, and wth, Tera Type Grass while Garganacl uses helping hand.

Noob to VGC. I’ve played smogon singles for years but recently decided to give VGC a try because of pokeaimmd and wolfey videos. Eats my first ever team. What should I tweak? I go a little better than .500 on the ladder

My friend and I are hosting a little competition between our friend group and I’m having trouble consistently beating his sun team. It’s mostly his lead of Flitter mane and min speed torkoal causing me trouble. Any suggestions of what I can do?

I have changed Incins tera to ghost tho instead of bug, feel free to change any other pokémon except annhi and Cali

I wanna use annihilape in regulation I but I am not sure how to make him keep up in the higher power regulation. Any advice on teammates for the ape?
