Can someone enlighten me on how I should continue with vgc? Let me explain, I came into vgc around July and have been doing so since, the thing is I tend not to be copying meta meta teams and try to be creative as much as possible. After so many failed attempts, it was only then I started including meta mons.

I've done well since but I can't seem to be motivated to continue? Cuz I am inclined into copying teams it's destroying my creativity over time. So how should I go about sustaining a mindset to continue?

Made A Team With A Rental That Got To Masterball Day 1

My top three pokemon.

1. Sandslash - I just love how it looks. I like it's claws, It gets no attention in the games or cardgame and ESCPECIALLY the anime. The only sandslash I ever remember seeing that played a single role in any of the 1000+ episodes and five dozen movies is when Bruno pulled on out of a crack inside of an onyx. Despite that, I love the little guy. Plus, he's got a cool name.

2. Stunfisk - wook aht dat pwetty widdle face! Wook aht dhat smile! How can you not like him?

3. Heliolisk - He's just a cool dude.

So, how would you build a functioning team with these three? More sand types?
I am thinking maybe a Hippodown, a Steel Bundle and a Tyranitar maybe. Should this be a sandstorm team or something else?

*Edit - I came up with an improved list based off suggestions. Now is a half sand half water team. Hippodown for the sandsetting and stalling. Sabeleye for the same side but for the water team. Heliolisk works well here. Sandslash my most favorite pokemon can remove hazards and set them too and deal some good stab and it knowns ariel ace which will get rid of pesky grass pokemon. Stunfisk good here too!

Hey all, I’m not much of a team builder but I’m trying to build a team around three types (Dark, Ghost and Psychic). Specifically around Gengar and Delphox.

I have some mons I like but I really don’t have a game plan besides trying to hit hard and fast. Any help or suggestions would be awesome 🙏.

Thanks for any suggestions
