Smeargle Used Spotlight 3 : Seaking Its Potential

Hi guys today I am back with another post for my series called smeargle used spotlight, here what we simply do is take a pokemon that I feel like has potential and take out its potential in the VGC 17 format and explain it to you, as you may have guessed the pokemon I chose for today happens to be a seaking. Seaking really does seem like a meh option to go for but trust me you will have some believe in it going while going through this post, so without further ado lets get into this post: Before I actually dig into seaking’s explanation I want to clear out that the base idea where I got inspired to do this post from was the following team that I have recently build and it will be included in the January monthly report. Seaking’s Introduction: Seaking is a pokemon that was released in the 1 st generation of pokemon, however since then it never received a clear highlight in any of the competitive formats vgc has had and all that I can unfortunately say is this guy is even on...

Smeargle Used Spotlight 2 : Sap Loving Dragons!

Hi guys today I am back with the second installment of my blog series known as smeargle used spotlight, where we discussed never before used or slightly used mons and talk their potential, today I have chosen two pokemons some of you may know have a lot of potential but due to the usual ‘tapu’ domination their selection is often overlooked.

Drampa often was called as the possible evolution to dunsparce but the rumor collapsed as drampa is a pokemon that neither can or does evolve from something.

December VGC17 Report Part 2 : Experiencing Sand & Rain

Hi guys I am back today with a new report, this will be the part 2 of the December report, last time I covered up London internationals, now I am going to put up some teams that I have been using and they are quite fun. I didn’t had a lot other to do, so this will be quite a detailed team post, most likely closest it can get to being a team report as I have done quite many in the past, but recently have changed my format for blogs, also San Jose regionals summarized in my terms are present in this post; now without further discussion let me get into this post: Teambuilding process: So soon after seeing the number of gigaliths in the internationals at Londons I saw as you may have read right in the last, that I got my inspiration from alolan dugtrio. Main thing in this pokemon that I really wanted to abuse was its physical offense in combination with the item life orb and the all important ability sand force which gives a boost to this pokemon’s steel, ground and rock type attack...
