Typhoonator519: why is eviolite a popular item for rotom???
Ihaveneverwon: i really hope its not
Typhoonator519: its suggested there ^^
@n10sit: ppl think it works on rotom normal
@n10sit: oh
@n10sit: the suggested items in teambuilder
@n10sit: are just popular items in general
@n10sit: they have nothing to do w/ the mon
Typhoonator519: flying gem, man gen5 was pretty popular ^^
london13: hey quick q
london13: do you get a circuit point if you lost in r3 of dou ssnl?
@miltankmilk: i'll check
+Croven: uh i think you do
+Croven: because that means you won 1 round
@miltankmilk: 1 point
Ihaveneverwon: we should really think about changing that system
+Croven: why
london13: yes i did win one round
Ihaveneverwon: because the difficulty in getting from r1 ro r2 is much lower than getting from semi finals to finals
Ihaveneverwon: and its rewarded the same amount
Ihaveneverwon: this is how you get people making invites and never making it past like quarter finals
+Croven: that's what BFL was supposed to prevent
+Croven: or whatever tht was
Ihaveneverwon: its not like an epidemic just something to think about haha
+Croven: ye i see what u mean but i think the BFL thing is a less complicated fix
%Nido-Rus: BFL helps with that problem yeah
Ihaveneverwon: Best finish is good for curbing against people who cant play all 4 but still are very good
+Croven: since weighting points based on how far u go seems much more annoying to do than just capping ur BFL to like 2
Ihaveneverwon: another easy way to do it is to only give points for like top 16
Ihaveneverwon: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ just something to think about
+Croven: ye fair
Guilmon Master: stakataka two x4 damage is bad for my Trick Room doubles, a Cofag is better?
#Arcticblast: Trick Room is hyper offense
#Arcticblast: and Stakataka is great on Trick Room
#Arcticblast: Cofagrigus is terrible
Guilmon Master: everyone kills ,y staka in the first turn with Fight move
#Arcticblast: if your Stakataka is being knocked out on turn 1 every single game, why are you still sending it out first?
#Arcticblast: if you're running full Trick Room, you should have two or more Pokemon that can use Trick Room
Guilmon Master: I have 3
#Arcticblast: so you can use setters that cover each other's weaknesses
Guilmon Master: Oranguru and Pory2
#Arcticblast: see there's your problem
#Arcticblast: your other setters are Oranguru and P2
#Arcticblast: you'll get a lot more mileage out of Hoopa-Unbound
#Arcticblast: or Necrozma
Guilmon Master: the Oranguru I use for the Instruct too for my Mega Hera attacks twice
#Arcticblast: Mega Heracross is also bad
#Arcticblast: the problem with Oranguru and Porygon2 on Trick Room is that they don't really provide anything
#Arcticblast: they just kind of sit there
#Arcticblast: and Trick Room cannot afford to "sit there"
Guilmon Master: need an ofensive TR right
#Arcticblast: http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/doubles-ou-team-bazaar-sample-teams-here.3590987/
#Arcticblast: in the first post of this thread
#Arcticblast: there's a really good example of a solid full Trick Room team
#Arcticblast: every single Pokemon has high offensive capability except for Bronzong, which still provides pressure with Hypnosis
#Arcticblast: if you can't find it, search "Camerupt Trick Room by GenOne"
Guilmon Master: I'm reading
Guilmon Master: Well, I think a togekiss is also good in this team for a good atk (Serene Grace + Air Slash) and the Follow Me to avoid atacks for the partner
#Arcticblast: Follow Me is great but Togekiss is very hard to get to work properly
#Arcticblast: and is only really good alongside certain things
Guilmon Master: Hey ArticBlast rate my team watching this battle. And about Mega Hera I know he isn't the better but he is there because is my favourite mon since Gen 2
Guilmon Master: https://play.pokemonshowdown.com/battle-gen7doublesou-697679948
Guilmon Master: what your oppinion?
#Arcticblast: if you want to win more games, you need to be ready to cut your favorite Pokemon in favor of those that win more
#Arcticblast: that said, a couple other things:
#Arcticblast: - Sableye is total garbage, get rid of it
#Arcticblast: - neither Togekiss nor Oranguru are particularly beneficial to the team, and I don't think you should use either one unless you find a truly great partner for Kiss
Guilmon Master: ok
#Arcticblast: see the thing about Oranguru is
Merritty: lc doubles tour in the lc room if you're interested
#Arcticblast: it's only good when you're using a really strong spread attacker like Mega Camerupt
#Arcticblast: where you can afford to give up the pressure of two Pokemon because you have two Mega Camerupt Heat Waves flying at the opponent in a single turn
Guilmon Master: I see
