I love sharing rentals cause not only does it get to feature awesome players cooking stuff up with cool Pokemon, but also lets people get into VgC without having to build their own team
I’ve always had an affinity for weather teams. It’s the thing I’m really good at, but I know I need to have some variation. Thank you so much for this video.
I really wanna know more about vgc basics tbh. I need more help with finding or getting in to tournaments. I also really think a video explaining what happens through out tge year as well. I’m getting really excited and love to play I just want my best chance to win a regional next year after worlds.
I haven’t understood competitive pokemon at all, like I have no idea where to start, what makes a pokemon good, are there any basic rules on playing like in fgc? (Like learning combos in tekken or sf are what you learn), are there just straight up bad things to do when playing??
I plan to make an updated “Beginners guide to VGC” but generally using resources like LabMaus to view popular team archetypes and Pokemon is a good place to start. VGC allows teams of 6, but you only bring 4 to every battle, and all Pokemon are reduced to level 50 in play. You can only have one of any item used on a team, so you can’t have two Pokemon holding like a sitrus berry or something like that. The big thing is just getting your feet wet, maybe try some rental teams out, figure out a team style that you vibe with and then after you get comfy you can start team building. If you ever need help, the channel discord is a good place to go for assistance. Tons of really nice and active community members that are always around answering questions and helping newer players out
Aside from knowing the top meta Pokemon, I would suggest you familiarize yourself with the following: speed tiers priority spread moves abilities items
@@kashshhds8824 Find an archetype you really like and focus in on that. The team I built and have been enjoying the most is a Hisidueye team and it has been a blast! The discord is also a great resource
Used Koraidon a lot for about a month. My thoughts: I like the standard flame charge set best. Lets me not have to rely so much on tailwind. Don’t use specs flutter, use sash flutter with both stab moves, icy wind and taunt. No protect is scary but I promise Koraidon teams are so fast pace, flutter almost never wants to hit protect. Use raging bolt, not walking wake :/ life orb wake just doesn’t hit quite hard enough to get important knock outs. But really, bolt just covers the Peliper stuff so much better. Derpy pelican is over 25% usage in tours lol. Consider amoongus/rilaboom. Amoongus gives you redirection and boom gives you take out and terrain control. I think that’s a good 4 to start woth. You can then decide if you want a more balance like with incin + farigiraffe, or maybe more offensive with Chi Yu and torn. Can get creative with these last two of course, as well. I ran entei (which I loved) and grimsnarl actually lol. Thanks for coming to my ted talk 🫡
I don’t get this what is this your using so u don’t have to catch them and use tm u can just choose a Pokemon and type in a move and put what ever evs on you don’t need to hyper train??
@@KneeckohGamingoh ok so once’s your happy and you want to play ranked matches u then have to find them Pokemon in your game and train them up nd use the bottle caps to get their Evs up? If so it seems really long and a lot of work each time you want to make a team up?
Random, but anyone need a partner for link trades? I need to evolve my Seadra so I can build a team around Kingdra. I hate that my favorite pokemon is locked behind a friend wall😢😂
What got you into VGC?
Mostly of y'all sharing teams
The suspense in taking chances
And unique pokemon

Tbh I got into it because of wolfey
Fair! His channel is so large it helps people get into the game. Healthy for growth! Glad you trickled down to a smaller channel like myself haha
Getting absolutely demolished in battle tower back in the DS days and wondering why my guys were so weak 😂

Glad you found the video helpful!
very good video, a lot of players cant explain how they built the team, they can only explain why it works. much love bud great rescource
Glad it was helpful
You did it bro! I’m excited for this🎉
People have been asking for it! Still think that “Team Build with Anything” video I made a while back pairs really nicely with this one
I figured out a perfect shadow tag gothitelle team and I swept the comp. Online and on showdown

That’s a pretty cool video idea

Like I’m just tryna beat the SV dlc, it’s frickin hard
Also is it bad if I don’t have legendaries to use?

Im probably a average player im not good enough to team build but i win 60% of my games with random teams
Team building takes time to learn, and no shame in being a better player than team builder!
@@KneeckohGaming do you have any tips
For team building in reg h

@@KneeckohGaming Tysm I will check the discord out and find a style I want
What do you think about koraidon?
It’s pretty good
@@KneeckohGaming yeah his only bad matchup is ice rider, but the core of incen kora, bolt and flutter is insane
It’s very good. I think it will get even better in double restricteds
@@KneeckohGaming yesssir keep up the good content!

Evs calurex-shadow?
Ahoy fellow vgc creator - quick question - what do you use to remove the background on your camera?
I have a green screen
Can you pokepast the calyrex team? Or show me the link cause I really want to try it
pokepast.es/5abb60c778a2485c
Giving Incin Knockoff was ridiculous
I don't think it was game breaking

This is a website called Pokemon Showdown. It allows you to build teams and battle so that way you can test them prior to building them in game.
