      I like
      Torkoal (drought)
      Hisui lilligant (after you, chlorophyll)
      Rampardos (rock slide, life orb, sheer force)
      Basically speedy rampardos

    I get increasing more excited with each upload of this series.
    Also, Inspired by VGC rejects I recently tried scarfed Luxray with guts and had prankster priority sableye with wide lense to activate it. It was fun but very inconsistent.

    • @slamgaming32
      @slamgaming32  2 місяці тому +1

      Thank you!! Also I love the idea, side-activating guts can be really cool (but a little risky!) - I love Sableye and Luxray, though, great choices!

  • @clarkside4493
    @clarkside4493 2 місяці тому +10

    I wonder if using High Crit moves (Cross Poison, Night Slash) with a Focus Sash rather than the other moves with a Scope Lens would have helped?

    • @slamgaming32
      @slamgaming32  2 місяці тому +2

      I gave that a try in early testing! Tbh it yielded similar results, but I still ran into the problem of focus energy feeling a bit passive (though the Dragon Cheer strategy is as well, to be fair)

      @@slamgaming32 Ah, I see. Well, I'm using an Ariados as a Rage Powder guy in my Regulation G team. It's also a Trick Room team! I'll be packing Mesprit, Dialga, Ariados, Primarina, Incineroar, and Decidueye.
      Between Rage Powder and Fake Out, I SHOULD have enough interference to get off Trick Room pretty effectively regardless of Psychic Terrain or Armor Tail and its brethren. Rage Powder can also protect my guys from Sucker Punch, so it'll be funny to make a Chen Pow wiff a turn.

  • @MrMisutei
    @MrMisutei 2 місяці тому +9

    I wonder what Ariados could do if it have a really good speed like 100+ and 115 Atk, would be interesting to see that in action. Honestly dont know why is so slow, spiders are really fast and they bolt a lot of times.

    • @slamgaming32
      @slamgaming32  2 місяці тому +3

    • @slamgaming32

      Thanks man, I just remember being slack jawed while I watched the nukes rain down and being legitimately surprised Hydrapple was faster than Rampardos outside trick room. I've been exploring the channel all day and needless to say I've subscribed. Look forward to some more cool content. Maybe we'll run into each other on the ladder again some day!

  • @jinxtheunluckypony
    @jinxtheunluckypony 2 місяці тому +1

    Rampardos is a really cool Pokemon, it’s just got such an unfortunate stat line. If its speed was 30 points higher it’d be a great sweeper, if it was 30 points slower it’d be perfect for trick room teams. It’s right at that awkward spot where you just can’t bring it into a lot of matches without some kind of special set up.

    • @slamgaming32
      @slamgaming32  2 місяці тому +1

      So true! It can only basically work against teams with no trick room options, unfortunately

  • @smoorevgc

    • @slamgaming32
      @slamgaming32  2 місяці тому

      I have a paste in the video description with the stat spreads! Groudon would be tougher to use from the trick room angle, as it is not nearly as slow. Also, Reg G is going to be so offensively stacked that trick room in general will probably suffer - but that’s not to say it’s not worth giving it a shot!
