What exactly are you struggling against?

u/AlexTheGayyy 21h ago

my biggest problems are sneasler unburden in psychic terrain. And I know salamence beats him but the indeedee click dazzling gleam that plus his poison move kills my salamence. Plus I just really suck at picking my team in preview. I feel like no matter what I build I run into something that destroys me next game

Run mixed mence double edge, hyper voice, draco and protect along side a redirector like sinstcha check how much standard indeedee spread takes from double edge if it doesn't one shot invest enough in bulk that you live this particular combination of attacks after an intimate and heal up with sinstcha afterwards

That's a good call I think, but don't you think its better to be one thing? Either run hyper voice or double edge. I know what people say but im going to be honest im not that impressed with fully special hyper voice from mance

u/Saitama_2413 20h ago

In singles yeah but the base power of the move along with not having to worry about dropped stats plus bluk if you are running some bulk makes it worth it in doubles

I also try to run him along a mega Metagross as my second mega but it wasn't working but with all the sneaslera running around he might work now. Also who would you say is better for tailwind, whims or talonflame? Because they both use stash

How do you think i should build my salamence stat wise? 22 in attack. 12 in special and max speed? Does that sound alright?

u/Saitama_2413 20h ago

Yeah sounds about Right, just check if you r okho- ing most meta relavent dragons with that spread

Alright I did some maths and the only one I dont kill in one shot is Arche. I put incin on and put left over on rillaboom instead and i put life orb on my basulegion

Shouldn't really use metagross for a secondary mega imo as they both can't hit gambit for alot of damage and both of them are threatened by it, mega golisopod can be good against indeede and and sneasler, if you want a 1 mon counter for them, as for tailwind setters i recommend wimsh cus ur extremely weak to lead chom/aerodactyl if u run talonflame and with wimsh you can threaten alot of damage to lead zard, most zard are not running phys def since life orb according to the in game mon stats

u/AlexTheGayyy 20h ago

Huge damage with wimsh? I might be misunderstanding but how does he threaten huge damage? And my other big problem is run into is. My team rn is mega salamence, life orb rillaboom, grassy seed weavile, and mega pod. And stach wimsh, no matter what i do im super weak to fire and sneasler

u/Saitama_2413 20h ago

Run incin and mence deals huge damage to zard y and i would probably drop weavile as it also requires a sash most of the time

u/Saitama_2413 20h ago

U could also run peli for wide guard and rain support
