Why is the battle tree ball bustingly hard at times, always having a counter for your team and then like 20 battles in flinging something stupid at you?

Truant is shit though. It makes the Alakazam worse.

Did you read what you just wrote out?

He's asking why it is that, despite the battle tree being super difficult most of the time and being able to read your team and oppose you specifically, it can still do stupid shit like sending out a trace pokemon when you've got truant

Is the walrein with quick claw and sheer cold still around?
>>30958902
Yes.

One of the two reasons I run Skarmory, the other being Smogonchomp
>>30958661
OK, When the AI does it, I can assume its because the ai was dumb.

>>30959819
what part of quick claw do you not understand
is it that hard not to mega evolve it?
also you switch out with mega zam as it cant OHKOs slaking but slaking OHKOS back
>>30959832
Kartanas are frequently run with sash, though. Jolly sash Kartana is a pretty powerful opener in the Battle Tree.

The AI is retarded (the most common exemple would be trying to inflict you status effect even though you are immune until it dies), it's just that it has a fuckload of teams that will eventually counter you by simple battle of attrition.
