Pokemon showdown has crashed.

Any thoughts on my experimental team? I try to keep it from being too obvious that it's a sun team.

I wasn't playing, my roomate was, so idk about the mindgames. From what I saw I think it does a good job of hiding the fact its a sun team, but Idk if its even necessary for it to really BE a sun team.

I think the pokemon that you chose might do well/better if they were just straight up geared towards packing power, rather than relying on it from the sun. (but then again I haven't been a fan of weather teams since they nerfed it lol...)

Also, switching to another defogger might be better for keeping the weather team alert down. Mew is solid, but because thets its main goal I think its a decent tip off + charizard

If that guy hadn't been such a whore and went for 4x attack instead of switching in before you got substitute up, that would have ended much differently.

I need to make a team with Ninjask in it now. Thats pretty neat

substitute and protect is a must. it's fairly difficult to set one up since it's so predictable. but if you can get your sub to stay for one turn and you're certain your sweeper can withstand the next attack when it baton passes you're pretty much done.

Not only that, but it's his own fault for going for a sweep against a staller. Practically begging for it really.

I would fucking love to help you do that.

Give me the run down of your current team.

Uh... Ledian for Baton Pass (may be replaced with Ninjask), Kadabra for double screen and stall (may be changed for Umbreon), Vaporeon for Baton Pass Acid Armor and Wish, Luxray with Eerie Impluse and both him and Staraptor has Intimidate-Volt-U-turn. Did I mention Mega-Lucario? Yeah.

Aw shit. Why, my preciously favorite pokemon???

Well, let's see... Any other good Mega? I'll take Mega-Metagross then. Other than the choice of Mega Pokemon, how's the rest of my team?
