Pokemon Sun and Moon News Coverage 21'st September

Hi guys I am back today to discuss with you yesterday’s pokemons reveals, without further ado let’s get into the news, from which we can get or speculate more things:

Game specific monkeys:


There were two monkey species pokemons revealed yesterday, these two were passimian and oranguru:
Passimian from the design is probably my most favorite out of these two, and it was rumored before in potential leaks from which we can see some specific things coming, passimian was the rugby monkey pokemon when I thogt of how a rugby monkey will look like, my mind didn’t gave me the best of picture; however I think this design is extremely well done. As it is known as the teamwork pokemon and as a fighting type does fight till the end, that is why it get the new ability receiver, which comes into effect in double battles. from the receiver ability passimian receives it’s allies’ ability as it faints, this can have potential clever usage for certain abilities like lightningrod, double intimidate tactics or maintaining shadow tag which can be essential to some team strategies, and as the teamwork pokemon I do expect passimian to help out it’s partners a lot.
While passimian works w/ partners being the guru oranguru is, it guides it’s partners through the battle getting the telepathy ability a lot of all-out spread moves will be adapted by oranguru’s partners surely. Oranguru is the psychic normal typing a well expected typing, it gets the new move called instruct which allows it’s target to re-use it’s move, this can come in handy very much if taken reference from vgc to make potential 2hkos into ohkos. Both these apes I think will make into the vgc format.

Rockruff finally evolves:


Rockruff’s evolution was always looked up to because it had something to share in similarity with the starter pokemons and now I think that it is confirmed that the starter pokemons will have two final evolutions which will be game specific for both sun and moon.
So lycanrock is better in design than what I though, the midday (pokemon sun) evolution looks great and swift, it’s ability sand rush can come quite into play, whereas lycanrock’s midnight form evolution is even cooler in looks, it looks like a dark rock though is only a pure rock type pokemon, it’s vital spirit ability can be very viable.

New z-moves:
We were introduced to 2 new z-moves one being pikachu’s catastropika and the other being eevee’s-all-out geomancy (forgot it’s name so just going to call it that :p) which shows usthat there would potentially be z-moves that don’t only do damage but effect stats as well, and my personal believe is that they would give us 3 z-moves for each tyeone for special attack, one for physical attack and a status move that fits the typing well.

Conclusion:

So this was just a short post, however I just learned that mega evolutions will be in the vgc17 format as it was said somewhere credible that ‘jangmo-o’s sound proof blocks mega gardevoir’s hyper voice’ hope u liked going through my post, bye for now.

The King of The Jungle: Calyrex Ice Rider VGC Regulation G Team Report

So as Regulation G just dropped, my initial plan was to let the metagame form itself out before I step into the game. However, after seeing some videos on Youtube that discussed popular cores, I got excited to try one of them out, and quite a simple composition too. It worked out quite well for me so here’s a mini team report for those looking to find a team to play the format: I dabbled in this format a bit with a horrid Kyogre team being rounded out with Rillaboom, Incineroar and Farigaraf and fell flat quick. Teambuilding: These Pokémon didn’t really gel together in harmony and there wasn’t much synergy or inspiration to go off of. I did get swept 2x by an Ice Rider Calyrex. Later when I watched a video that mentioned the Trick Room core of Calyrex Ice Rider, Incineroar, Farigaraf and Ursaluna, I felt like it was quite worthy to give it a try. I know from my experience thus far that the majority of dedicated Trick Room teams do work on a sort of flow chart function. Most basical

CHALK Analyses: A Better Understanding.

Today I’ll be discussing one of the most highly argument’d topic in the VGC 15 season. You already know from the title and I know how late I got all because of my laziness and getting distracted a lot by other things during the time of some holidays I took the time to write up this analyses for you guys, it’s better late than never right? I myself have used CHALK core teams to success and have really liked them, in this post I will cover up analyses on CHALK and other topics that can relate to it, let’s get started: Artwork by @yudeyude123 on twitter =================================================== What is CHALK: This weird looking word is an abbreviation for the words Cresselia, Heatran, Amoonguss, Landorus and Kangaskhan. This is actually a penta-core of mons used at great success in the VGC15 season as most of you are familiar with it, it even won Worlds 2015 in the hands of Shoma Honami (SHADEViera), this trend also originates from his homeland of Japan and many o

Death by Perish Trap: Teambuild VGC 15

Hi guys i am back with another teambuild post, and sorry for my absense for some time. this time i will be putting forward a team of mine built a long time ago but it still works to this day. i posted it elsewhere to get some advice on it and now it is up to it's full potential and i thought i was ready to post it as a teambuild post on the blog.i finally almost perfected the execution of the trap against the meta. idk why it wasn't up it was completed bout 2 weeks ago though, let's get started with the team: Teambuilding thought and process: as we already know that W olfe Glick is the king of perish trap so my first step was to take his team break it down and then rebuild it up to my playstyle and comfort-ability, i took his regional team tried spotting out weaknesses (there were non :P) and then ended up copying his team couple of times. i decided to build right from the start picking up some notes on his build to take guideline and picked up the following points: .
