>posting teams when you can't even test on showdown
>>29909777
So what? We have all the tools we need to team build. We might as well figure out the whole fucking meta right now before the game is even released.
>>29909735
Can you cut out all the NFE cruft from this massive list? Except for obvious Eviolite candidates like Type Null?
>>29909803
>implying you can build a functioning team without even playing 1 game
no one is that much of a genius, the first 2-3 months of the meta are always a wonderful clusterfuck. The london tournament is going to be great to watch
>>29909891
Charjabug might be something that people use as a living helping hand for special attackers.
>>29909990
Its quite easy to see where this meta is going. Tapu on every team, maybe 2-3 Tapus on the team with 2-3 synergistic partners for them.
>>29910060
can't wait to see you at worlds then :^)
>>29910379
Ayy lmao c u there m80
>>29910045
Charjabug will be used more than Vikavolt.
>>29911340
Ehh maybe i could see electric terain + specs vikavolt bug rekking tho.
>>29909735
Full Wall Team Ftw.

Vikavolt
@Choice Scarf
Levitate
Timid
EV: 220 HP 36 SPA SPE 252
Bug Buzz
Flash Cannon
Thunderbolt/Zap Cannon [Drizzle Team]
Air Slash

304 SPE
Levitate means it has only 2 weaknesses. Rock and Fire.
Bug Buzz goes through Subs.
Flash Cannon hits Fairies and Rocks.
Thunderbolt is reliable stab. 10% PAR.
Zap Cannon in Drizzle Team is 100% ACC 100% PAR.
Air Slash for coverage and 30% Flinch
thoughts???
>>29911882
scarf electric types are always a bad idea no matter what. 145 SpAtk uninvested is less than you think it is, and 45 base speed won't outspeed anything relevant even with scarf. Add to that the fact that Vikavolt can't benefit from electric terrain...
No reason to max speed, it wont even be fast enough to outspeed anything even with the scarf.
The moveset is on point though. I would just switch the ev's to 252 hp 252 spatk modest nature choice specs.
>>29909735
Incineroar
@Assault Vest
Intimidate
Adamant
EV: 8 HP 248 ATK 252 SPE
Dark Lariat
Flame Charge
Leech Life
Brick Break/Return
any thoughts on this build?
>>29909735
gimme its staple vgc/rating doubles set. Oblivious or Corrosive?
>>29911882
Scarfed 45 doesn't reach very high. Base 93 outspeeds it. If you're trying to outspeed things with Vikavolt, you MUST run Agility or have a Tailwind or a Trick Room in play.
>>29912255
my idea for using vikavolt in a team with something that has webs and/or has t.wave
>>29912158
how do you get HA alola starters?
>>29912362
I still don't like it. The strat becomes really fragile the more pieces a Pokemon requires to be in place already before it can even be useful at all. Even if it has webs down, getting immediately stopped by a pokemon that flies above SUCKS, especially when it's primarily an electric attacker - flying types are part of its job or its component of your team's overall coverage is not pulling enough weight.
>>29912158
>>29912429
HA's are not available for the starters and only occur from the new pokemon calling mechanic.
>>29912599
how long does it take 2 get HA thru chaining? I tried getting a HA salandit and I didnt get anything even though i chained like 22 or something
>>29912636
Higher chains make it more likely to get HAs. Its not a 100% chance tho. But chaining like 3-4 should be good.
>>29912682
thats a load of trash, i use worry seed 2 check each one and that is not true. Those odds are way off
>>29911882
Since this is Doubles, might as well go with Vikavolt under TR. With that you can Volt Switch around. Also, put more investment into Sp.Atk than that.
Holy shit fuck of all already Vikacucks. Accept already that your shitmon is useless, fucking hell.
>>29912599
Oh well that's too bad honestly. Primarina and Incineroar would've done nicely if they had their HAs.
This is going to be like the Gen V starters and their HAs again, huh?
>>29912902
Yeah they will only be released as a sort of event in the future most likely.
