Hey guys

 

I made this post because I wanted to know what are the best Pokemon to use for PvP as I just finished the game and would like to start a career in PvP :thanks:

You should take a look at this list to know specifically which pokemon are viable in PvP at the moment.

This might help u

Nearly half of all teams I've seen carry some variant of Azumarill.

 

Fail to keep it in check at your own peril.

yeah you need a response to the most common (and dangerous) pokemon in ladder at least... those are:

Dragonite

Togekiss

Talonflame

Azumarill

Garchomp

Gyarados

If you fail to counter them in 1 switch, then they set up and it's game over basically...

Also need a hazard remover, a hazard setter, and try to get a stall breaker, since most teams are stall when you start climbing up to the top

hazard removal is by no means necessary, in fact it can be a drain on momentum. as logn as you aren't running a bunch of sr-weak mons you'll be fine

Tbh it's not what poke are in the meta.. It's what Pokemon go good as a team. To find this out I'd find out what Pokemon are obtainable in pro, go to showdown/battle damage calculator make some teams test them out. Then when you come up withsome good teams..friendly battle a few people with different teams so you know the pros and cons about your team and try to tweak them a bit. This may sound like a bit of work but in fact I did this for 2 days and came up with a few good pvp teams. I manage to hit the top 10 every season in yellow so far with that idea. Well this is just a suggestion and I hope it helps you! Good luck <3

well @ which rating are you?? most of the teams at top carry skarm/ferro+srock setter.. even if ur mons are all srock resistant, you will get massacred by skarm phazing ur whole team around hazards (spikes+srock)... if you pretend to go serious, hazard removal is necessary.. you just need to know when to get it in and u won't lose momentum

it really depends on what team your running and if you have good spatkers, skar shouldnt be a prob.

 

 

at the end tho, you have to decide foryourself what your playstyle is and what pokemon out of the pvp-pool you like. You could also run unorthodox pokemon, but cheese only works thaat much, so running common pvp pokemon could make it easier to climb.

 

Also expirience is probably the most important thing, so dont expect too much when you just start pvping, cause it always takes a little time to get used to it.

 

Goodluck tho mate!
