It's so smart to use Rillaboom as an ally for special Groudon here. It never makes sense to me when people have Rilla alongside physical Groudon with grassy terrain reducing the power of Precipice Blades. Also, it's pretty niche, but having a Chlorophyll user that can set up for you vs. a Prankster user that could very well be blocked by Psychic Terrain or Farigiraf/Tsareena is pretty neat! Loved this video, and I've been meaning to give special Groudon its fair shake at some point. Glad to see it pulls its weight!
@@GeordiVGC Funny enough Whimsicott does have access to Chlorophyll wich may surprise dark types, Farigiraf users and opponents on psychic terrain on the opposing side when they get Encore'd. It also learns Endeavor and Fake Tears, though no Thunder Wave but Stun Spore instead. Throat Chop is not an option however.
252+ SpA Choice Specs Groudon Eruption (150 BP) vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Calyrex-Ice in Sun with an ally's Friend Guard: 160-189 (91.4 - 108%) -- 50% chance to OHKO. So it depends on how it was built if it was needed but let's just say yes it more than likely was needed haha.
That first team represents very well the consequences of being a metaslave. You already knew the opponent's movesets and items, whereas they knew nothing about yours, hence they lost.😄

Sawsbuck definitely pulls off some stuff Whimsicott can't!
But btw, precipice blades isn't reduced in grass, just earthquake, magnitude and bulldoze

"Wtf is this?"

Every time I hear Tera Fire, my brains reads it as terrifier, as in one who terrifies
I feel like thunder would be nicer to have over thunderbolt. I feel like you'll mostly be using it against things in the rain anyways.
Definitely thought about it while building
That tyranitar team from the first match would be cool to watch!
This!!
This team was really cool!
Unfortunate third loss
“You is me” rush hour 3 head ass
What would you think of Endure on Sawsbuck?
Doesn't really have room I'm afraid
