Still in total disbelief, but I am the Louisville Regional Champion!!! It's hard to put into words how incredibly proud I am of my achievement, making VGC history with back to back wins. I'm so grateful I get to play Pokémon every day and wouldn't trade it for anything ❤
Not doing a full team report but it's worth mentioning that people focus too much on farig as the main decorate target since it popped off on stream. if the team was all about that alc would be slower+farig would be more spa invested. i think i lost my final game buying it myself
@donutsvgc Btw I also liked being faster than the 60 speed mons. Pick them off with gleam, lower sylveon spatk w MF. It was important in my one game win vs Ugarte for example
Helping Hand allows Zomp to pick up surprise KOs on mons that threaten to Ohko Alcremie before it can get a Decorate off, throwing a wrinkle into a Protect+Decorate setup. It can also be used on the (already decorated or not) tr attackers.
@GossamerGuns Hey, can you break down the decision behind decorate and helping hand? I feel like Alcremie has a lot of cool options like pain split and encore, why is helping hand better than all of them?
Also thank you for posting your team, that's really based of you!
@donutsvgc Both smart. I didn’t think of Iron Ball but I liked Rocky Helmet because with no protect it can discourage fake out, sash mons like Harc were annoying, and (especially) zomp just barely missing so many kos loves just that amount of chip.
BREAKING: Sources confirm that Marvin Harrison Jr. is currently holding an Everstone, meaning he will not evolve when his trade to Houston is completed.
Another disappointing development for the former top-5 pick.
@Ian478905948478 I can’t remember the exact torkoal spread idea but there’s some big attack it lives. Zomp has great rolls to live hyper voice from Sylveon as well as a couple other things this way.
