Also shout out Pokemon for grouping Champions based on age for official ladder, finally

The birthdate you enter puts you only in the pool of others of your group - kids if you're under 13, teens if you're under 18, and adults if you're 18 and up

I also really like how every season in Champions they change up a good chunk of the Pokemon, Megas and Item pool that's allowed to be legal - s***s really dope and keeps more under control and interesting instead of just legends or no legends of the cartridge games - and I'm glad so far I dont have to deal with terrastalized, I like megas and dynamax/gigantamax but i do not like the terrastalized mechanic

damn bro you hate the most played move in doubles or what

only one Protect in the team is definitely bold lmao

yeah Champions "tier" is just the top 300 in the world

they didn't change anything in season 2 because it was still played under the regulation M-A just like season 1

so i don't think they will change anything in the next two seasons before september when the next regulation takes place

Lmao I did have protect on more mond on the last team I mentioned, but after getting crit'd so much that mad me mad asl I just decided to make everyone fat b****es with only a half max speed venu and Dragonite with a bunch of support moves to just weaken them and hide behind screens, and then with Dragonite (n multiscale makes it a super fat b**** 💀) and Elecktross r auto protected from swampert earth quake

I can also kinda get away with protect because having a few more mons mega able but don't actually mega plays mind games with opponents I can usually call correctly of what they tryna do - I'll post my stats itt inna bit

Past meta knowledge and making every hit hard as fat hoes gets me thru

Sometimes just swampert with muscle and grimmsnarl/venu/sylv giving support can kill all without a mega

Nice thank u, that's dope cuz then everything I bought won't go to waste right away

Yeah 2 to 3 seasons would actually be dope for a controlled meta game, I like the meta rotation idea a lot kinda like in card games, I also like how some mons have a chance and are getting shine in a more controlled state too than they would ever before - s***s a lot of fun

I'm thinking bout making a mega skarmory/mega Aggron/mega glimmora + mega tyranitar sandstorm team next or sumn

m-metagross, scarf hydreigon, sash talonflame, farigiraf, torkoal, m-venusaur is my team

just made my final push into masterball with it and i've barely played this season, haven't even reached 50 in the battle pass yet, i still need one more win for that

last two seasons i've started playing janky teams once i've reached masterball tier, made dozens of new teams and rinse and repeat but if this team is still decent in 1-2 weeks then i feel like i will start trying to push for a high rank with it in masterball next season

yeaaah i'm totally fine with it if they make these meta shakeups every three months as well (the meta is constantly changing on a smaller scale anyway so far)

i'm coming from playing hearthstone for years, as well as legends of runeterra and marvel snap so it's funny that you mention card games

i always respect people for playing off-meta s*** and even a swampert that isn't carrying a megastone can definitely be called off-meta

my metagross couldn't care less about your screens though

Fat ass swampert with muscle band high-key an mvp for me rn LMAO - Swampert is also a top 3 fav starter of mine n Pokemon Emerald n Gen 3 is my fav Pokemon era

Electross n Dragonite got me covered if I see a Metagross + fake out grimm 😈😈😂

These r the stats btw, only diff I did from today and yesterday is give Venu sludge bomb now over charm cuz I've seen there's so much more fairies running around in masters

n a lot more special attackers outside of sand teams (n kingambit + Basculegion), but do I want an damn recruit farm literally refuses to give to me, lowkey im heated n I don't have pkmn scarlett anymore

Here's my profile code btw if anyone wants it 👀

Grimmsnarl GOATED and legit one of fav pokemon in both design and competitive, gen 8 high-key cooked with a good amount of mons

Also idk why ppl hated on Mega Dragonite in ZA (I skipped that title with how half-assed it was and how poor the graphics are)

It looks dope as a design in Champion imo, and its legit strong in Competitive

Maybe the better assets in Champions makes it look better

Anddd I'm done for the night, on the cusp of too 100,000 and a win streak of 7 (my 2nd highest win streak, my highest is like 9 or 10) - I play about 10 - 15 games a day give or take

And once again it was Swampert the last one standing 💀 - it and Sylveon can solo ppl itself with some support mons then I'll also have heavy hitters like Dragonite and Elecktross, then Venusaur is for very specific threats n the occasional sleep spam cheese if they have no check for it

Grimmsnarl is coming literally 98% of the time

Dawg my Swampert out here cleaning up straight raw dog like it's gen 3 OU all over again LMAO

This champions season ends today, here my results of my 1st season that I started in its final week lmao

I've also been trying out a Glimmora Mega and Annialape core that replaced Electross Mega and Venusaur and it's been dope too! I will prob do a Ttar sand team with mega Glimmora when the season flips

I like Champion's meta and setup a lot

Lmaooo yooo I finally started Pokemon Champions

I got a Sneasler on my team. Mind you, I haven’t played since Sun and Moon.

Bro I used Dire Claw on a mfer… that mfer went to sleep!! Im like huh? This s*** puts niggas to sleep?

Slept the opponent Pokemon. Next man up. DIRE CLAW!! Sleep again!!!

Yo this Sneasler is going CRAZY out here in these streets. Man I’m back. Where’s @Ultima

I still gotta build my team tho, I only have 3 I fw so far

Aye I’m on my cell phone playing this s***. Anyone wanna lose hmu

Yo this man Sneasler might be an all-timer.

I just ran into a team I had a bad matchup against. They dropped my first 2 Pokemon no problem.

3 on 1 for Sneas. Damn!!!

Drop the first one. Ok, cool.

Second one against a Hisuian Samurott. Dodged the first attack, ate the second one!! Ohhh!! Dire Claw, DEAD

Mannnn but then bro sent out Hisuian Typhlosion! Fuuuuck, all my moves are ineffective against it! F*** it man, I gotta believe in the heart of the cards

DIRE CLAW

SLEEP!!! Whoaaaaa!!!

Dire Claw again!! Still sleep!!!

But then Typhlosion uses Quick claw and wakes up!!! BUT SNEASLER EATS THE HIT

DIRE CLAWWW. DEADDDDD!!! 3 MAN SWEEP! Oh my goodness!!! This nigga Sneasler got AURA!!!

Bruh I’m ngl my Armitouge is going so crazy I had to give him a nickname. First time I ever gave a Pokemon a nickname

BRO THIS ARMITOUGE MIGHT BE ONE OF MY BEST STARTER POKEMON OF ALL-TIME!!!

New team alert for new season, I hit ultra ball tier already with them

The team murders so far lmao I only lost twice as of now

I have to get this downloaded on my phone.

Ultra Ball Tier 4 is tough asf. I been stuck on this damn rank all day

You def do ngl

Nintendo might’ve done its big one putting Champions on mobile

Even if I had a switch, I wouldn’t trade the convenience and portability of playing this on mobile to play on console. The app is super optimized for the mobile experience also. And the animations and game speed is extremely fluid

go Ash!

Man. After playing all day, I finally found a strategy to get me through Ultra 4. I defeated Ultra 3 in 3 matches, and now I’m finally retiring for the night 60% of the way through Ultra 2.
Man this is a fun ahh game lol. I have 5 Pokemon that I like so far. Looking to fill the last slot
