The first to reach Champion level wins a $50 Gift Card!

Beginner

Hello.

Our goal is to make the forum an increasingly active and knowledge-rich space. To encourage participation and recognize our most dedicated members, I am launching a reward.

The first user to reach the Champion level on our forum will receive a $50 Gift Card.

How to track your progress and level up You can monitor your progress and check how close you are to reaching the Champion level directly on your profile.

To level up, the best approach is to maintain consistent and high-quality interaction:

  • Create topics that are relevant to the community.
  • Help other users by answering their questions constructively.
  • Earn likes on your posts by sharing useful and well-crafted content.

Campaign rules

  • The prize will be awarded exclusively to the first member who reaches the set goal.
  • No spam of any kind will be tolerated. Short, empty messages just to generate volume, repetitive posts, or attempts to manipulate the like system will result in disqualification from the campaign and loss of points. The main focus is the quality of the discussions.

It is worth noting that, in the future, we will possibly have more events and prizes like this one. Our idea is to build an increasingly friendly forum, where people truly interact, talk, and collaborate with each other.

The campaign is already live. We count on everyone's participation in the forum!

I've been looking to try a sceptile team for a bit and this team looks super cool and I'd love to start running it, but I was wondering if y'all have suggestions about leads into different archetypes, or who to leave behind when?

Glalie MegaMachampIncineroarGarchompVictreebel MegaMusharna

How exactly do you play this team? Is it hard Trick Room, or is Trick Room only there for speed control? Also, what are the roles of each Pokémon? I've been looking for a cool-looking team with Mega Glalie, and this one looks awesome.

Chimecho MegaSinistchaMiloticWeavileWyrdeerIncineroar

To be fair the whole strategy is setup chimecho boomburst with sinistcha or skill swap onto the opp to boost milotic. Weavile fling is a nice touch. What do you think?

Rate My Team: Mega Froslass Mega Blaziken

Froslass-MegaSneaslerSinistchaBlaziken-MegaRotom-WashIncineroarDiscussionRate My TeamHelpBeginnerRegulation M-B

Hi, just got into VGC a while back and this is my first time building a team.

I wanted to build a balance team that has answers into most of the teams I see on ladder while still having the firepower to hit back.


Froslass: main goal is weather control + veil for extra bulk. main answer for dragonite, garchomp, etc.

Sneasler: fake out support with threat into arch, floette, and kingambit, poison touch set to hopefully OHKO whimsicott with focus sash.

Sinistcha: imprison tech to counter trick room, as well as a good bring into rain.

Blaziken: main carry vs sand teams and the dual weather team that brings venusaur, also attempting to amend the lack of speed control on this team with speed boost.

Rotom-Wash: Answer for charizard/rain/sand teams and an immunity for EQ

Incineroar: Incineroar. good pivot with slow parting shot and intimidate support. Also helps with ghosts since I left out kingambit.


I think two obvious weaknesses are the lack of speed control and a weaker matchup into rain? But I'm not sure if this is correct. I'm thinking about whether I should swap incine for kingambit for better offence but the team is already pretty frail so I think I need the intimidate.


Looking for anything I might've missed or suggestions to make the team better!
