Making my VGC20 team and new favorite combination: Weezing + Whimsicott

So when the vgc20 format was announced I got quite excited as there were according to the new ruleset of the format, will be allowing specific gigantamax pokemon to be featured into these games, most noticeably including the gigantamax snorlax and gigantamax butterfree whose gmax moves are going to stir up the format and will leave you to find good answers for them. after seeingsome very noticeable flaws in my drifdede team, I decided to move format and work on a sort of a timeless combination of mons that will favor me in modification as the format goes on, especially with the suspected release of pokemons like gigantamax grimmsnarl as well as gigantamax gengar. The one and only pokemon that caught my eye when doing so was galarian weezing, noticing how many of the teams in this format relied around their abilities, mainly prankster for whimsicott and grimmsnarl, justified for lucario and arcanine as well as seeing much of levitate carrying rotom’s variety I thought that one of the better ways to deal with this format would be to start off building around a weezing
Knowing how I like my offensive style of play and being aware f weezings amazing move coverage I decided to give a chance to galarian weezing with an assault vest. Originally starting out with a dragon fairy steel core of hydreigon, weezing and corviknight and adding in the fwg core of cinderace, dracovish and whimsicottt, I soon fell in love with what I’ll call the ultimate lead of whimsicott + weezing and following is the reason why:
·         Weezing’s neutralizing gas on leads stops any weather leads as their abilities do not activate
·         Weezing’s presence also scores out any justified + beat up leads as justified won’t work
·         Most noticeably weezing has the capability of easily outspeeding and hitting grimmsnarl with a super effective attack and makes it lose its priority bracket due to neutralizing gas.
·         Paired up with whimsicott this disruptive combination becomes an offensive threat
·         Weezing can go for dyamax making it much bulkier than normal and release a barrage of wide type coverage special attacks which can also set up misty terrain which stops any status schenanigans or boost its teammates’ special attack by using max ooze which also makes it successively powerful.
·         Tailwind gives it amazing speed too which is much needed for it to favor the team in the first few turns of dynamax
·         Fake tears also makes weezing an offensive threat.
This combination overall has the potential to age well, looking forward to gmax grimmsnarl mainly and has an amazing presence and impact to the current meta as a lead.
The current team is what I like being a core of whimsi, weezing on the lead with dracovish and corviknight in the back, the strategy usually revolves around getting rid of x mon that threatens corviknight to allow it to set up and win the end game, with threats of this core being scarfed rotom, arcanine, rock slide spams and trick room, which the last two slots need to cover, will soon be coming out with the full version.

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...
