    A good tip about team building as well, is just try out some other people's teams before building your own. Trying out already well taught out teams so you can actually see how a well constructed team runs, as well as watching and learning from people who used that team competitively.
    i.e. after watching the Baltimore Regionals, I really liked finalist Paul Chua's hyper-offense team, specially that Alolan Ninetales, so I'll be playing with it for a few days.
    And as always, great content, Professor, excited for the next video.

      You're right! In fact, the guide also recommends trying out well-constructed teams when you're just starting, so you can learn how they operate in competitive play. Paul Chua's team is definitely a great choice-the Alolan Ninetales was so fun to watch! Thanks for the support, always happy to see you pop up in the comments, ZeeonXine!

      Thanks for thinking of me! I’m focused on making videos right now, but check out teams on Smogon or Pikalytics to compare and maybe find areas for improvement, like the reverse engineering section I mentioned in the video. I’d love to hear how your team works out!
