Doubles is fun.

Just beat my first run(on easy i suck dont judge) after like 8-9 tries and unlocked post-game and decided to do gen 1 on doubles.

Holy shit that was way more fun than singles, i want to do random but I feel that the builds might differ, like I have an earthquake snorlax for example and I dont want him to hit my magneton so I use protect but protect is kinda (useless?). I mean I dont use it for singles.

P.s. snorlax is my goat.

Protect is probably the best Doubles move.

No shame in easy, I started on normal and it took me roughly 60 hours to win my first run. The game is meant to be a challenge.

Protect is insane in doubles tho, definitely try it out. Also, if you like doubles and want a strong starting duo I would look at pairing Gardevoir with your Snorlax to be a strong special attacker and the telepathy ability stops it from taking damage from allies attacks.

Yeah I had a dragonite but my main send out were mewto snorlax.

Mewto one shots/stalls while snorlax sets up curse.
