Metatalk 5 : Choice Scarf Tapu Koko

Hey guys today I am back with another installment of the series of metatalk, where we discuss some aspect of the metagame, i try to cover topics that have recently bumped into the metagame like return porygon 2 and tapu lele with choice scarf which saw some usage, this time i will try to discuss another rising or often talked about aspects of the choice scarf tapu koko, without further formalities lets head into this pokemon:



·         First of all tapu koko may seem very fast already however it is being outspeed by some things such as pokemons like choice scarf garchomp, choice scarf nihilego, choice scarf kartana as well as pheromosa which then become an extremely big threat for it. In this case choice scarf seems to be the ideal item for its choice.
·         Electrium Z as well as Focus sash variants of tapu koko are also seemingly well known in this metagame. That proves that tapu koko does not always needs an attack increasing item such as life orb as well as choice specs to hold as an essential choice.
·         Choice scarf allows tapu koko to outspeed pheromosa as well as + 1 speed gyarados that is built to outspeed tapu koko, and OHKO them before it can attack, the same may be the case in kartana and garchomp usage dependant on its move choices.

·         Choice locked item allows it a free fourth moveslot, this can be required by moves that may greatly help tapu koko to support its partners.
  • Moreover choice scarf tapu koko that is physically offensive can outspeed and ohko dirfblim as a tech for the players who always seem to have trouble against those blim-lele teams
Conclusion:
ok so guys this was it for this post of mine hopefully you guys really liked going through this and learned a few things about choice scarf tapu koko, i'll be back with more 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...
