/mgc/ - Monotype Gym Challenge

first for ice is best worst type

>>30887759
Should we change the opening statement for the thread?

>>30887844
No.

Why is there no sleep clause in effect for this tournament or any prohibiting of (imo rather cancerous) moves like double team? It seems like an oversight and something very ripe for abuse

>>30887888
This is the 7th time this tournament will happen. People have used these before, nearly always unsuccessfully.

>>30887888
then abuse it, and see how far you get

Would anyone really consistently be the best person for that monotype? Gym leaders lose all the time

>>30887960
All depends on the type and match-up.

>>30887888
Alright, just voicing a possible concern.
>>30887943
Rather not, pretty distasteful really. But I won't deny I'd find it annoying to meet on the other side of the field either.

>>30887960
What exactly do you mean?

I'm more a lurker than a poster, so I name/trip here because being anonymous is usually more trouble than just saying who I am and what I need.
and I could use a good dick sucking, too :^)

>>30888172
Gym leaders lose all the time, so they obviously aren't the "best". If someone beats you with your own type, do they become the new leader?

>>30888808
Welp, this stuff isn't ran that way.

I guess you could think of this tournament like, all potential gym leaders (or gym leaders form across the world) come together to compete to see who the ultimate gym leader is.

I don't know how they used to run that gym leader challenge thing though.

>>30893409
Zing Zap/Nuzzle/Reversal
pick whatever fourth move you want because that is all the worthwhile attacks it has. You can run fakeout or wish or another support move I guess

>>30894986
I know Daniel runs Fell Stinger, from seeing him try to finish off weakened guys in Battle Royals with it.

>>30895006
What's fell stinger do?

>>30895006
fell stinger is pretty meme tier but I would prefer a support option on my fourth slot. The one on my mono team has electric terrain

>>30895020
+3 Attack if you manage to kill something with it.
That's a pretty big if, though.

>>30895061
oooooh. That's pretty rowdy.

>>30894951
Is that a bump, or a request?

>>30895267
yes thanks

>>30895061
BP50 non stab bug attack coming off base 95 attack. Funny if you actually land it but too unreliable for my tastes

>wanted to run elec
>no koko or zapdos ever
>no brotom-w until bank
there goes that idea

>>30895997
lmao. Zapdos and Raikou were opened to elec last season. Literally only callum did it to fill the slot. Still struggled.

If having access tho strong mons within your type is clearly a requirement, run another type. Or don't be a fuccboi.

Who is up for morning battorus? I have a new EV spread on my Primarina and I want to see if it's better than before.

>>30887759
I'll plan to steal Steel leadership.
I always wanted to join but I never made it because of irl things
I hope I can go all out this time.
How many steel leaders are out there?
tfw no celesteela, I mean duh but ;_;

>>30896237
Slightly different tournament style my dude. But if you end up being the furthest going steel type, you will have that steel spot.

See >>30894045
for current signups atm.

>>30895997
nobody who runs electric and has done well with the type even wants to use legendarys.
Looking at the few prominent electric users we've had in the past, Daniel mostly runs Pikaclones and does pretty well with what they are. Nathan ran ghost rotom in season 2 and came close to the top, and there was a second electric leader in season 4 who didn't have access to legendary mons.

If you think you "need" zapdos or tapus and genie of healthy meta and rotom-w you're probably just shit

>>30890893
midday lycan is pretty boring m8

>tfw you're trying to practice on battle spot and it says one of your pokemon's moves isn't legal, but all of them are legit.

>>30897045
Nevermind, found out Parting shot and memento are banned atm since they can cause game crashes.

>tfw won against a cancerous team of Mega-metagross, salazzle and Toxapex with my monotype

>>30899008
Yeah. Practicing battle spot is hell. It wasn't this bad in ORAS. Now literally every team is a Smogon's top uber cancer comp. Megas were a mistake.

>>30899049
Maybe 2 days ago i went on battle spot with my shitty taste NU team and ran into a water monotype. Battle spot has its moments, but as long as you try not to battle when the japs are awake you should be fine.

>>30899076
>the Japs are awake
That's probably what it is since half the names I ran into today where in Japanese. What makes them so try hard compared to their western counterparts?

>>30899129
Not sure, hopefully one comes by that can explain the mentality. for sure it's more enjoyable to monotype during the time theyre asleep. as well as wondertrade.

>>30899129

Araquanid is pretty good, I hate to say it but probably better then golisopod. I love golisopod alot but it struggles in quite a lot of situations.

I run a "just fuck it" set on my araquanid. Max atk IVs with choice band and liquidation. Surprisingly effective.

>gone back and forth between three different types

HELP

>>30905635
What type are you thinking about?
What do you want to get out of the tournament?
How i see it is, you can enter to have fun, win or experiment with new mons for when bank comes out. If you know what you want, it makes it a bit easier.

>>30905734
Ideally I'd like to pick a type without too many entrants. Originally was going to go Bug or Water but now I'm kinda feeling Ground or Flying (Flying because Silvally would be a cool pokemon to use, I think). I have several pokemon bred up for each type.

>>30905952
Latest numbers are still the same as posted >>30894045

Ground is pretty limited with it's choices, if that has any impact on your decision.

>>30906060
However, forgot to mention, it's still fun to use, so its up to you.

>>30905952
Don't feel bad picking a popular type, just pick whatever seems fun.

It's up to you to decide if you want a type you feel works or a type you want to try to make work. I was really considering poison but I just didn't care about enough of them and decided to wait for postbank.

Which Luna are you rooting for?

>>30906720
Based editor bro Luna.

>>30906464
Why do say that? When post bank comes out and I get thinks like dragalge, viileplume, toxicroack, and beedrill (if megas are allowed) I plan to use it. Poison is a really cool type.
>>30906720
The cool one of course.

>>30906720
all 3

>>30906801
I say that because I run a fairy type team silly.

That's why tournaments are fun though. Getting someone with a advantageous team is fun as fuck. As a ghpst user fighting other users is a blast.

Anyone want to battle or need something real quick?

>>30906801
Only mega-salamence will be banned.
Megas were banned this time because most of the megastones are not available in game.

Anchor was too good. Sometimes it could be a jobber but it pulled through here. Love this guy, honestly one of my favorite pokemon ever. You had quite a few slow mons but even then that klefki is insane. Personally the swagger on dhelmise is too risky with my sky high attack.

>>30907470
Probably didn't help that I switched my EV spread to be more speed oriented (which apparently didnt pay off at all)

>>30907502
Interested you didn't go togekiss on game two with dhelmise. Air slash flinches would fuck up dhelmise. I actually was surprised how hard gyro ball hit klelfki. Gave it 0 speed but still.

Going for a bit, thanks for the match. Hopefully I'll have enough time to play more later.

>>30907539
This guy is great. Weakness policy with amnesia is a good set. Been testing out sand storm sets recently with shore up.

>>30906720
The other two.

>Try to teach my Clefable cosmic power through heart scale tutor
>It isn't there
Why?

>>30908522
Cosmic Power can only be learned by Clefairy.
Move Relearner can't give moves from previous evolutions, like Crabhammer for Crabominable, or Razor Shell for Cloyster.
Want me to inject/edit you a Clefable with the right moves?

>>30908522
I'm not sure how it works. What resource are you using to see that it's available?

>>30908624
That'd be great anon.

>>30908640
Does it matter if the Clefable is truly yours(, i.e. proper trainer ID, can be nicknamed)?
If yes, trade me that Clefable and I'll just give it the moves you need.
If not, I'll just create one from scratch. Post details.

>>30908679
Alright I'll hop online. I have one you can edit. Thinking of changing nature/evs if that's okay too.

>>30907539

Just asking to be sure, since they both have their niches.

>>30908928
Okay, go back to Festival Plaza now.

>>30908972
Thanks for your help man. It's hard restructuring your team halfway through "pre-season". Also nice swinub. I think once bank opens I might do an ice team next.

Dragons are cool, but damn if they aren't limited before pokébank opens up.

Regardless, anyone around and wanna have a battle? Wanna get some tests in.

>>30910333
Hey sure, let's go. I had less to do then I thought.

>>30910383
cool, heading online

>>30910428
Those were fun.

Surprised that flash canon didn't kill mimikyu game one.

Game two was unfortunate for you. Missing both the dragon tail and fire blast were pretty big.

Thanks for the battles.

>>30910777
Yea, miss chances are awful demons sometimes. Still, thanks for the battles, Luna.
As much as I love Mimikyu I can't help but see and feel it will be the bane of my existance. And yea I was surprised about flash cannon as well.. the move is pretty consistently underwhelming I find, I should probably replace it.

>>30910822
Flash canon is pretty handy depending on what is using it. I use it on my aegislash and it works great as a fairy killer. With mimikyu it kinda is difficult to predict if it's fast enough to sweep. Honestly the disguise SD is useful for me as it lets me know if I can outspeed your pokemon.

Noticed you added a hydregion. Didn't even notice it on the team screen and surprised me at first.

Anyone here still up for battles?

139KB, 1024x1060px

>>30911034
Yea, turt or exeg are the ones under most scrutiny for a drop.
The major problem is that I don't have any priority moves whatsoever... or entry hazards. Life is hard for Dragon type. Turt has a weird set to try and recover from that as much as I can, but it's pretty tame at best.

Lesson learned: don't lead with gengar against a fairy user.

>>30911275
What happened?

>>30911447
He always leads with klefki every game basically.

>>30911034
I use Turt very specifically as an Anti-Fairy fuck Canon. I run Calm instead of Modest now and essentially use it to either scare away fairys that are walling me, or drop the 200bp Inferno Overdrive on them if they don't switch and pretty much guarantee an OKO on real annoying fuckers like Kefki. It can also switch into Ice or Water attacks and take neutral damage, which is crazy for both Dragon and Fire monotypes. He's no sweeper or wall, but he's a tricky fucker all the same and can force a swap when they really don't want to, or else he'll shit on their ringer.

A lot of people just have never seen it before, so if you go in with your own strategy, you can almost count on a misplay against it. It's just whether you capitalize on that misplay that determines on if he's good or shit on your team.

I'm under no illusion he's OU tier, but for monotypes I can't think of anyone else who deserves the slot more. Especially with Hyper Voice Sylveon being kill there's literally nothing redeeming about Kommo-o. But that's just my onion.

>>30911483
thanks for the input anon, I'll take your claims to heart and try to expand on those uses of Turt more.

And yea, I can't see Kommo-o being crazily good... I wish he had sucker or bullet punch. Feels especially weird he doesn't have the latter. But there's not much choice for me I think.
