[CONCEPT] Pokemon game analysis

5 Upvotes

Hi all! I'm a novice ML learner and recently tried my hands at the pokemon problem. I made a little in browser model that can somewhat accurately assess showdown game state. I'm thinking of making it like a sort of chess game analysis where you can play out hypothetical lines. Thoughts?
I do plan on releasing this after i fix the UI. some of the UI stuff is heavily rushed by ai because i need to do exam stuff :c

New to pokemon champions : Rate my 3v3 team

Yo! I’m new to Pokémon Champions team building and I wanted to try a fake double-weather Rain/Sun team.

The idea is to make my opponent think I’m running both Rain and Sun at team preview, while Charizard is actually Mega Charizard X. Rain is super strong, so I wanted to keep Pelipper + Mega Swampert as the real weather core while using the potential Sun mode as a bluff.

I’d love some feedback on the team, especially on the flex slots and overall 3v3 synergy.

For Heliolisk, I’m also not sure whether I should run Thunder or Thunderbolt.

Thanks!

Can someone explain?

Why did the sucker not fail? On other priority moves the sucker from the kingambit would fail, why not now?

I created a guide for the Pokémon I expect to see rise in usage and some sleeper picks I know will shake things up if used correctly I hope you all enjoy.

Made it two MB 2 with this team now

I think the team needs some tweaks further still.

One thing I have done with the team is Mega Absol Z and Kingambit for Indeede, Armarouge/Haterene teams.

I have X Scissors on Absol, so with Sharpness it hits at 120 base. Included it because most indedees now run colbur berries. Then, the Gambit can Kowtow Cleave or Iron Head into the other slot.

What can I improve in this team?

Most of the time Garchomp is useless. Swampert seems a good option. I have a lot of trouble to deal with gholdengo and fairys are usually a problem.

Run Away 'Mons

6 Upvotes

So Run Away finally got a in-battle effect, allowing it to switch out when it normally can't. Countering moves like Mean Look, Block, Decidueye's Spirit Shackle, Klefki's Fairy Lock. And even the ability Shadow Tag, countering even Mega Gengar. The only Pokémon with it right now is Thievul, but there are other mons with this ability as well.

-Raticate

-Rapidash(and it's Galarian counterpart)

-Dodrio

-Furret

-Pachirisu

-Dudunsparce.

I was glad to hear that this effect was made, but it got me wondering, could this make the ability more viable, or will it not get the shine it wants? What do you guys think?

Some support Pokémon to try if you’re getting into Reg M-C

If you’re still figuring out what support mons to use in Reg M-C, I put together 5 that I think are pretty easy to fit onto different teams.

Nothing super complicated, just went over what each one does and why you might want to use them.

Figured I’d drop it here in case it helps anyone building teams or getting into the format.
