replay.pokemonshowdown.com/pu-444415930So this was a fun match versus the Funbot himself, with myself using a team around SpDef Wailord Stall team and Funbot using Acupressure pass. Upon team preview I immediately thought of getting up Toxic Spikes with my Beedrill, as his only immunity was Butterfree, although as you will see in the match they actually didn't matter at all in the long run, and I wasn't quite able to safely set them up. Pivotal turns during the match IMO - Turn 7 I was able to get behind a Substitute with Wailord, which subsequently allowed me to set up Aqua Ring and try and stall; this also helped in weakening Electabuzz for a potential Klang sweep later on in the game.
- On turn 25 I was able to find a guaranteed opportunity to Defog away the Spikes while also being able to Roost off any hazard related damage and U-Turn out.
- 28 and 33 I think are equally important, as before then I was playing under the assumption he was using Scarf Meditite, and had I not Roared on his BP into Lickilicky it might have been game afterwards.
- Turn 51 was essentially the game ending turn, as he wouldn't be able to OHKO my Gourgeist-Large with a burned Lickilicky, and the rest of his team was firmly handled by a combination of Klang, Gourgeist-Large and Wailord.
Overall I felt the game was both fun and demonstrated the defensive syngery this team has, and it also allowed Pokemon such as SpDef Beedrill to shine. GG to Funbot28, good luck getting that Acupressure sweep, bro.

So this is a nice short match vs Melancholy Blues using a pretty good stall squad that I made recently, based around Shift Gear Klang as my main wincon with stuff like Wartortle and Licklicky being nice support options for it and Diglett which is nice for trapping stallbreakers such as Swalot as example in this match. Its a short match so I can't really draw pivotal moments but here is the replay. Melacholy really had a bad matchup vs stall so it ended quickly. replay.pokemonshowdown.com/pu-447663513 |
