>pic somewhat related

why discharge and tb? switch one for signal beam or dazzling
>>30549228
Why discharge on xurkitree? Replace with dazzling gleam. I run basically the same set, works great.
>toxapex
>no recover
Holy shit dude. Get rid of baneful bunker and replace with recover.
Those are the only two I have experience with, others look fine but I only skimmed them.
>>30549274
>why tb?
What the fuck else should you run as a main STAB?
Tbolt is your main stab, HP ice and gleam are your coverage, and volt switch is for if the match up looks bad.
>>30549228
Give Xurkitree Timid nature. It needs the extra speed
>>30549372
can you read or are you just retarded?
>>30549539
Sorry, misunderstood, thought it said "or" for some reason.
>>30549309
>running toxapex at all in VGC
zero offensive pressure, it's basically dead weight. also entry hazards are DOGSHIT in doubles.
>>30549647
Didn't even see he said vgc, probably just starting.
>>30549228
Toxapex is dead weight. Throw in the current Anti-Meta boi, Alolan Marowak.
>>30549274
>>30549309
Can you guys not read the part where it says VGC?
>removing Discharge
>removing Baneful Bunker
Get your trash singles shit the fuck out of here.
>>30549228
that looks like a singles team. you'll get shat on
>>30549228
>That Porygon-Z
Throw that one in the trash, and get an Adaptability one.
Replace Nasty Plot with Discharge, Tri Attack with Hidden Power Ground or Poison, and put either Discharge or Shadow Ball on top.
>>30549228
>The only instance of Protect is the Baneful Bunker meme
Git gud, and put Protect on some shit.
>>30549228
Fucking awful. Stop playing.
>>30549228
Why did you tell us their nicknames?
>>30550049
Why did you misspell Pierce?
