You need to be more HAYAI

Found the problem

>>31327810
think more for one

>>31327810
What's your team?

Any non-fight/Normal priority will shut down gengar's frail ass

>Phanpy used mud slap!

>>31327810
smogon approved teams don't get swept by gengar, so you probably fucked up

Official list of Battle Tree approved mons:
>UBs
>Tapus
>Aegislash
>Anything that can Mega Evolve except Metagross, especially Lucario, Scizor and Gyarados
>Garchomp, which technically falls under the previous category but should not be used as a Mega
>Not-Pikachu
>Some people swear by Toxapex, A-Persian and/or A-Ninetales
>Aegislash
>Porygon-Z

As a general rule, most anything else will result in a bad time

>>31327892
>Anything that can Mega Evolve >except Metagross,
why?

>using Smogon sets in the Tree

My best runs have been with my in-game teams of mid-to-low-tier mons with three~four attacks of different types, random EV spreads, and all holding Z-Crystals

>>31327890
Magnezone/Garchomp/Dragonite
>inb4 /vp/ shits all over my squad
The only reason the Gengar was able to stomp me was because he was too fast and put all my mons to sleep.

>>31327900
Because on top of having garbage STABs, they don't even have the decency to have 100% accuracy

>>31327892
The team itself wasn't smogon approved. But their move sets are.

>>31327900
Metagross's bread and butter moves, like Meteor Mash, Zen Headbutt, and Hammer Arm, don't have 100% accuracy. Sure, they only have a 10% chance of missing, but what if it misses when you need it to hit?

>>31327810
Your own fucking fault for not using at least 2 (two) hyper offense pokémon

>>31327952
He doesn't even have one! He admitted to using Smogon sets, and guess what. All Smogon sets are stall.

SOS chain Dratinis, my guy. Multiscale is 100% required for Dragonite to be good.

>>31328024
He didn't even have icy wind

Megagross is great for battle tree plebs

His ability to take any hit that isn't the fire zmove is amazing

I heard you were having a Gengar problem. I may be of some assistance.

>>31328015
You are not a brigth man

>>31328060
>STAB moves aren't even 100% accurate

Enjoy missing when you need it most and losing your 48 win streak you sub 1100 shitter.

You're all shitters for thinking non-100% acc moves are any sort of issue.

It's true you shouldn't be using MGross in battlespot/tree metas, but it has nothing to do with "inaccurate" (fucking 90+ acc on everything) moves. The real is, why the fuck are you using MGross in a meta that MLuke, MGar, MKhan, and MMence are available. Like, literally why? All 4 of those mons are hilariously overpowered when MGross is "only" very strong.

It might be correct that you shouldn't use MGross, but /vp/ being shit at competitive is showing really hard for the reasons why.

>>31328361
probably because MKhan is neither overpowered nor available

>>31327871
nice meme
Do you get rekt by smogon sets often?

>>31328376
You can catch Kangaskhan in the volcano park, and its stone is at the battle tree for BP. It's just not as stupid without power up punch and its other bank moves.

I'm on round 71 with Tapu Koko, Garchomp and Megagross. Only problem I've come across is Landorus, and I've beat it 4 times now so I'm not terribly worried. Thinking about using Mega Slowbro for retarded movepool and defense over Meteor Miss tho
