Why is the fucking RNG in Battle Tree so broken? Why would GF do this?

>paralyze opponent
>opponent paralyzes me
>he never fucking stops attacking, I never land a single attack on him
>get crit by every single move that wouldn't kill if it didn't crit
>have my sweeper outsped by pokemon that are either scarfed or have bullshit stats
>parahax togekiss never fucking works
>opponent always has a berry to mitigate your attack, and then revenge crits you to death

It's not. You never remember when RNG works in your favor, but you do when it fucks you up because it cuts your streak
>>
>Trying to get the EV items
>Without a proper EV trained team
>Such training requires such items
>Battle Tree already starts with teams properly adjusted to maul your team with RNG
>Battle Dome is complete horseshit

eugh this is going to take a while
>>
>>30596870
It N E V E R fucking works in my favour, though. I haven't ever been able to flinchlock an opponent, and I've been running the set for three days. At this point I have to redo my entire fucking team because this shit just doesn't work as well as it does online.
>>
>>30596923
>Such training requires such items

Helpful, sure. Required, no. There are a lot of ways to get EVs in this game. It'll be more convenient once you get the items, but they're certainly not necessary to EV train.
>>
>>30596923
I feel you, dude. Luckily you can do Battle Royal with your ingame mons, because survival is more important than raw sweeping power.

I ran BR until I had enough BP for the items I needed, then never did it ever again.
>>
>>30596770
Actual good AI is really difficult to code. Firaxis knew that all too well.

>opponent's last Pokemon is an avalugg that can take a +2 hammer arm from 252 Att life orb Masskito and live without focus sash

I mean, it didn't hit me with anything that could KO me but what the hell man, even when avalugg has high def there's no way it's living that shit if he's ruining leftovers
>>
>>30597155
Actually it can. People underestimate Avalugg because muh ice
>>
>>30597155
+2 252 Atk Life Orb Buzzwole Hammer Arm vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Avalugg: 413-486 (104.8 - 123.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO
wtf

Sorry OP, but sometimes RNG works in your favor.

note: these are my story mode shitmons

Oh wait, it could have had sturdy.

Ever heard of a Lum berry?
Seriously though, its just pure chance.
At some point in your long chain of battles, the RNG is gonna fuck you up.

So far the RNG has been working in my favor. Red and Blue's fights were pathetic in my 3 encounters, I didn't even lose a single mon in my 3 fights because of how rigged it was in my favor.

Its best not to leave things to chance when possible, I've missed 3 times in a row with a 90% accuracy move...
>>
Ai fucking cheats.
It's the only way it can keep up with us hugh jackmans
>>
Why is the AI retarded though?
>uses Pain Split when I have lower HP
>uses status moves when Misty Terrain is active
>lowers the attack of special Pokemon, and vice versa
>>
I can't believe people are having such a hard time getting to 50 battles.

Is /vp/ full of scrubs?

some of us are trying to have fun

>>30597590
literally beat it with A-Marowack, Aegislash, and Primarina
>>
>>30597343
Pfft thats nothing, tell me it wasn't rigged in my favor:
DX6G-WWWW-WWW2-K53A

I'm pretty sure the AI cheats. There's no way I open Nihilego in a Battle Royal every opponents opens a Water-Type, with two of them having Gastrodon (The SAME Gastrodon) in the back.
>>
>>30597665
>Aegislash

wow i bet you're real proud
>>
>>30597043
>because survival is more important than raw sweeping power
Is it really though? Never managed to win a single battle because each time the opponents kill themselves and I don't have the opportunity to take a single kill.
Each time I'm supposed to ko a mon, it survives with 1-5 HP and manages to be ko by an opponent
>>
>>30596770
Use the misty terrain tapu, Pheromosa/Kartana, and a bulky volt/turner.
>>
>>30597043
Fuck the battle royal
>set foot in there, figure I'll get a little bp
>send out mudsdale
>all three opponents attack and destroy mudsdale
>repeat until I'm out of pokemon
Free for all my ass

Hey OP, you should try this new strategy that helped me through stuff like this!

git gud
>>
what are some good teams for this? My current is Chandelure, Mimikyu, and Magneton and im just getting bored with it at this point I keep winning most things until I hit a stallmon and I just have to hope magneton can hold on

You can max EV's using Isel Evelup in 36 hours using beans.
