GC改めて65位でした。 @JoeUX9 のRegional優勝構築を好みに合わせて少し変えたものです。 良い構築ですが、基本選出に素早さ操作がなく選出のパターンも多いのでそこまで初心者向けじゃないかも？

Different AI bot developers have been asking me to try their new tools or battle their bots and I wanna make it clear I have zero interest. I have no desire to help in the development of these tools and I think they take away from what makes Pokémon enjoyable

I'm gonna make a video discussing this topic soon because I think it's inevitably going to have a huge impact on Pokémon but I've been taking some time to educate myself so I can articulate where I think the major issues are properly

Yes, this is very true, don't run safety Safety Goggles even if it's in the game without Amoonguss so I can continue to click Sleep Powder into you, it definitely won't help you 😉

Safety Goggles won't solve the Sleep Powder problem. What you can do with them in this meta you can already do it with Lum Berry Incineroar. The reason why isn't played it's because it's suboptimal. Safety Goggles were amazing because Amoonguss was there in the first place

Still in total disbelief, but I am the Louisville Regional Champion!!! It's hard to put into words how incredibly proud I am of my achievement, making VGC history with back to back wins. I'm so grateful I get to play Pokémon every day and wouldn't trade it for anything ❤

like my sand team, the team report will first be out on Patreon but both teams will be public once I release the video detailing my journey through both runs in Baltimore and Louisville, with the pastes and replicas being provided for free there when it's posted on YouTube :)
