Pokemon Strats For Champions! Part 1: No theme!

Candy0_o · April 11

I just want to look back on past strategies and see what there was so here's some strategies because im bored. And I also want some opinions on these teams. And some feedback would be nice. Im fairly new to this, so im still getting used to strats! This part doesn't have a theme, but the next one will!

Im gonna go through some strats, and things like defense, and hard offense!

To start off, the balanced type. This has the Grass Fire and Water types, and some defense in there too. In scarlet and violet, there was Rillaboom for grassy glide, incineroar for support and lower the pokemons attack, and urshifu to help with offense. Im pretty sure Wolfe Glick used a team that also had Amoongus for Redirection, sleep powder, and defense. This is a team that requires sticking to your plan, and going through no matter what.

Next is trick room. I barely even understand it but basically, you have a pokemon use trick room and it makes the fastest pokemon the slowest (And vice versa). A good set up is Mimikyu due to Disguise making a ensured set up, or Sinistcha having Matcha Gotcha. Good pairs are really strong and defensive pokemon that are slow. So Hatterene, Ursaluna, and Torkoal are good choices.

Now the last strategy of the day, Perish Trap. Originally created by Wolfe Glick, it was 2015 Boston Championships. Perish Trap won the game! But what is perish trap? Well, this team was heavily relied on by Politoed (a personal fave of mine) and Gothitelle. Gothitelle set up Shadow Tag making all pokemon forced to stay on the field. Then Politoed used Perish Song to make every pokemon faint in 3 turns. Wolfe used stalling moves like protect and fake out to keep them in the field. I think i have this correct but I think his main goal was to make the other team have 2 pokemon, use perish trap, and while he still has 3, all pokemon faint except the third one, then boom Victory.

I really hope I got those teams accurate. If not, feedback would be appreciated! If this kicks off, then ill make this a weekly thing
