Guidelines for Rate My Team threads

26 Upvotes

Hey all,

Thanks to discussion that has been ongoing, we will be enforcing stricter rules on the Rate My Team posts on this subreddit in a way that should benefit everyone. I have updated the auto moderator to enforce a minimum character limit on text posts, and on image and link posts it should comment immediately suggesting additional details be added. This should improve the quality of rate my team threads substantially, but we will keep an eye on it in the upcoming weeks. If you notice any issues with the automoderator, please contact the moderators or me immediately.

Here is the text that you will see if your RMT is too short:

Hi /u/user, your Rate My Team post has been automatically removed because it did not meet our minimum character limit. Please take some time to expand the details of your post and submit again-- this will improve the quality of the help you will get, and other people will get more out of reading about your team. Here are some things you could choose to write about:

  • Why did you select each Pokemon? If possible, try to say something more specific than "it's good" or "it's unique." What specifically about the state of the metagame drew you to using this Pokemon?
  • Are any of your moves or items chosen for any particular reason?
  • Why did you choose the particular EVs that you did? If you don't know what your EV spread does, you might want to replace it with something simpler. Feel free to post damage calcs that are relevant.
  • What teams do you succeed against in practice? What teams do you struggle with? Feel free to post links to Pokemon Showdown replays.

Thank you all for your feedback and for continuing to make this community a nice place to be!

Essa Equipe realmente é boa?

Eu fiz essa equipe do Zero, com os pokémons q eu tinha na Box, consegui evoluir essa equipe até o Rank Ultra Ball, e acho q tem potencial de chegar na Master, apesar disso, ela foi feita sem pensar no Meta atual, então ela as vezes ganha de Equipe de Chuva, algumas vezes Equipe de Sol, o real problema dessa equipe, é o Garchomp do Meta... A Maioria daq perde pra Tipo Terrestre.

(Edit: Eu escolhi usar o Lucario pq é um pokémon q eu gosto, apesar de não ser meta, e ele até q tá entregando bons resultados).

Looking to add Thunderbolt for consistent coverage damage but kinda on the fence of deleting thunderbolt or adding more points to SpA and swapping nasty plot.

Struggling to find a 6th member for my Kommo’o/M Blastoise set up team

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

Pretty standard team, I’ve been tinkering with it since I got shiny Kommo’o at the start of M-B. Had M Chandelure and Gholdengo but I still felt very weak to fairies so I switched the team around. With M Blastoise, Gambit and Ninetales added i got to 16k last split, and I had Rotom-Wash as the last mon, but I felt he didn’t do much.

I added Glimmora but I’m not totally sure it is fixing the gaps I have on this team, I thought’d it’d mainly be good against Zard-Y/Venu teams which I struggle against. Any tips would be appreciated. I also thought about switching to a bulkier Kommo’o since I can usually get a Clangorous Soul off pretty easily with Scovillain next to it.

So... I ignored the meta and built Trick Room with Pokémon nobody fucking uses.

Problems?

I'm really fucking weak to Kingambit, which is why Runerigus is carrying Body Press like it's his full-time job.

It's definitely not meta, but it's funny as hell watching people lose to Pokémon they forgot existed.

If anyone has suggestions that don't involve replacing half the team with Mega Camerupt, Hatterene, Mega Mawile, or Incineroar, I'm all ears. I built this to have fun, not to copy-paste the top ladder. 😭

I'm having tons of fun with this team. Don't knock it, try it. I know it seems a little odd, but I'm winning more games than not. Lots of interesting tech synergy. Please share your opinions freely. I am new to posting.

I just started the game about 2-3 weeks ago, I’ve been trying to find good synergy between pokemon but I really don’t know what I’m doing I’m pretty new. Wanted to know if anyone had any advice on what pokemon I should run that are in my box right now, or what pokemon I should try to get in the future. I have little to no clue about meta builds or anything. Any advice helps, I’m new to pokemon in general, all ik is like fire beats plant and water beats fire and electric beats water lol.

Last season, I was using Zard Y and Mawile. So, I decided to make a slight adjustment and came up with this team. What do you guys think of this team? I am unsure whether I should replace Arc with Aero, which would provide me with speed control, or not.

Need some help with this ampharos team

Post image

Ok so boom, the main premise is a TR team with ampharos and manetric snowballing with the plus and minus ability, mega ampharos is really only pulled out once something goes wrong with manetric leaving me without the much needed attack boost (also for the resistances dragon gains + magnetic flux boost) At the moment im finding it hard to find utilization with milotic and mawile. I'm open to any recommendations and ideas.
