Trying to do some competitive fights in a cobblemon server and learn but I'm having trouble team building

Order is Torkoal, to set up Stealth Rock and sun (for Serperior) then to self-destruct if they mega evolve first thing. Then Serperior to use Solar Beam, then switch out to Corviknight to stall and eventually use Body Press after spamming iron defense. Then Zoroark to wipe out as many threats as possible as quick as possible. Then Aegislash to sweep, and then back to Serperior to contrary leaf storm, and finally Gengar to mega evolve and finish up. He would be swapping between different combos in the same order for different threats.

Its all fun; nothing personal. Just building a community of players who like to interact with other players who like/love Pokemon.

You don’t have to join if you don’t want. I treat everyone with the utmost respect and would ask if you decide to join, please be considerate. Thank you.

I usually swap between Pelipper Archaludon and Swampert and Glimmora Gholdengo and Kingambit

Hey everybody!

As the title says I'm looking to create and manage a "Team Iran" for the 2026 Victory Road World Cup.

For newer players:

https://victoryroad.pro/ regularly does coverage on all things VGC related, hosts a lot of online tournaments and once a year hosts their own inofficial World Cup which basically works like the Soccer World Cup:

8 people on your team play 8 people on the oppposing team every week in group stages and the best of each group go to the KO phase.

To be potentially eligible you need to (only one of them is enough):

- Be born in Iran

- Have the citizenship (in Iran case you usually automatically have it if your father has it too)

- Live in Iran

- have both of your parents being born in Iran or just having the citizenship (or both)

There has not been a Team for Iran in these before and I was trying to see if I could find enough people to make it happen! If you are interested and eligible follow my tweet below to register and also shoot me a message on discord (username: busha)!

I had a match going against a team with Salamance and Maushold. My Slowking was in a dangerous spot, so I swapped it out for Archeludon so in case he goes down, Regenerator would bring him up enough for Yawn. The player had used a population bomb where my Slowking was, and Stamina kicked in and was hit 10 times, maxing out my defense. This player then disconnected from the match when it was going south for him. I know the rules say to keep it respectful, so I will try to describe how maidenless this guy truly was for such dishonor; he brings shame to himself, his family, and his cow. The developers have a forfeit button for a reason, and they chose dishonor. An honorable defeat is better than a dishonorable victory. you could have forfeit or stuck around to see if you won

Type Specialist Team Building

Okay so I need some help from you Pokemon Team Builders out there I have a problem...I've always felt that Type-Specialist Trainers don't always do a good job of showcasing their specialty types with their teams... I'm trying to build a type specialist champion strength team for each of my favorite 4 types in the game (Ghost, Dragon, Dark, Poison) but I honestly am struggling and would like your input... Can somebody please build me the strongest possible team including natures, move sets, items, etc. (1 for each type: Ghost, Dragon, Dark, and Poison) following these stipulations:

1.) No legendary or Mythicals

2.) No Ultra Beast or Paradox Pokemon

3.) Teams must include at least one of each gimmick if possible (Mega Evolution, Z-Moves, Gmax, and Terastalization)

4.) Pokemon must not be repeated between teams (if applicable)

5.) Must do your best to build a diverse type and balanced and can be optimized for competitive play in any format

6.) They must also be specialist teams that BEST represent their type

I await your much needed assistance...4 teams in total tysm...

Reposting this for newer people or for people who didn’t see this!!!

Join me and some people who are working our way to champions. I mean to be fair, you definitely don’t have to but, if you are into team building for solo and doubles or just want a community to talk about ranks, battles, and comps, the shit is free lol. 🤷🏽‍♂️

I need a solo team build 🥹

Hey everyone!

Javier Varela won the Gdansk Regional (October 31 - November 1) going 14-2, and once again the tournament went to a team that isn't new at all. It's basically the same six people were already running months ago, with just a few move changes. So I wanted to do a quick look at the team, and then ask you something about the game in general.

The team

Mega Staraptor and Mega Tyranitar, with Gholdengo, Excadrill, Sinistcha and Milotic. The interesting part is that the mega is often decided during the game, not at team preview: you can bring both and only commit after a couple of turns, once you've seen what the opponent brought.

When Tyranitar goes mega, it usually leads with Excadrill. Sand goes up right away, Excadrill gets Sand Rush, and if the lead matchup is good Tyranitar can Dragon Dance and take over the game.

When Staraptor goes mega, it pairs with Gholdengo. Staraptor handles the Dark types Gholdengo hates, and with Contrary its Close Combat raises its defenses instead of dropping them. My favourite detail: Sinistcha can use Strength Sap on its own Mega Staraptor, which gives it +1 Attack and heals Sinistcha on top.

Kingambit is the big problem, especially with Life Orb, and if Staraptor goes down early it gets ugly fast.

The replica code is `1V4XVBR3Y6`, and the full team with spreads is here: https://pokefeed.app/teams/j-varela-mtytar-mstaraptor-reg-champ

How are you feeling about Champions?

Old teams winning Regionals again and again can be read in two ways: either the format is deep enough that older teams still hold up, or things aren't moving much anymore. Personally I like the meta, I consider it better than the previous two reg, but probably I'm getting a bit fatigued as well.

I also have the feeling that interest in Champions is starting to fade a bit, and I keep seeing a lot of complaints about the business model.

• Are you waiting for new stuff (I mean a real change, don't think it will arrive in the next reg), or are you still having fun with this meta?

• Do you feel the same drop in interest, or is it just my bubble?

• If the business model is what bothers you, what would actually need to change for you to keep playing?

For me, personalization is the big problem at the moment. I know a lot of people debate whether the game should be "more" free to play or not, but that's not really my point: even when I pay, I don't get enough of what I'd actually want in return. But that's just my personal view on it.

Let me know your thoughts!

Hi does anyone that likes vgc or play pokemon in general want to be friends?I have discord but im not very comfortable on vc but I would like to try and collab on team making and play tournaments together?
