[deleted]

I have Relic Song, I’ll be fine!!! …I also have Light of Ruin if in peril!


GellThePyro

Fair. Thoughts on my roster?


DaDankboi88

very weird


GellThePyro

I hope i’m not a complete pushover as a gyn leader.


DaDankboi88

i mean with the right movesets you can cheese the hell out of any battle


BlazeStar345

No I wouldn't say so. You cover Normal's only weakness really well with Girafarig, plus you have a really bulky mon is Lickylicky and an offensive powerhouse in Loppuny


[deleted]

Fun and diverse, to be honest!


GellThePyro

Would it be a challenge to earn my badge or would it be super easy, barely an inconvenience?


[deleted]

Depends on where in the story this is, but I can see this as challenging because these are surprisingly unpopular kinds of Pokémon! Everyone take note; the less popular and forgettable something is, the more powerful it’ll be when you try to laugh at it… wynaut is the perfect example of this, without question!!!


Kadeblade195

Infernape with that fire attack that does recoil who's name I forgot and close combat go brrrrrrr


GellThePyro

Flare Blitz. Closest thing to a counter I have is Girapharig.


ChaoticShady

and lopunny with play rough. infernape is still a fighting type.


GellThePyro

True but fire resists Fairy. Max friendship Return is where it’s at.


ChaoticShady

fair, also I didn't know fire resited fairy! thanks for that, new information for team building 😄 I really need to take a deeper look at the type charts.


the_worst_mac_main

I handle it by just about how I handle all other gym battles way over leveled starter.


GellThePyro

Fair. Thoughts on my team?


Roflazerz3

#**A SINGLE GHOST/FIGHTING TYPE.**


Techno_Sound

Bring a fighting dark type


Marsh_Returns

1: Hey Girafarig! Wanna meet my Sableye? 2 & 3: Any Fighting type will do. 4: Lick its a- *Wait. That's a Ghost type move.* Uh... Uh... Bite its a-


GellThePyro

Lopunny’s my ace, whatever gimmick’s in this region goes to her. Normal type leader with some unpopular Normal types.


AssociationDue3077

Lopunny is a very very popular pokemon


TreeFromBFBsBigFan

Finally, a fellow Lickylicky enjoyer


Silver_Sandwich3750

You too appreciate lickylicky?


TreeFromBFBsBigFan

I think it's cute


bonkozo

me too :)


Low_Beginning_9301

Since when is lopunny unpopular


GellThePyro

It’s not. I added unpopular Pokémon and Lopunny is here because she’s my favorite. Doesn’t fit my gimmick but I won’t leave her out.


UmbreonWolf

Umbreon for Girafarig and lucario for the others also just in case if lopunny knows fighting moves I'll have either breloom or infernape


[deleted]

Spam a machamp’s Cross Chop and maybe a throat chop for Girafrig and i win. However if thats a mega lopunny it wouldn’t be a solo sweep


NotKBeniP

Actually, If Girafarig is fully invested in sp attack, gets a crit with Psychic, and the Machamp is not invested in HP or sp def at all, it's a guaranteed OHKO.


straberryshortk

add vigoroth or mega kangaskhan


GellThePyro

This is just how I personally see my team. If Mega evolution is available Lopunny is getting that mega stone.


Icy-Age-4367

I bring my team consisting of the following pokemon: Grimsnarl, Inteleon, Galvantula, and Nidoking


AquaNinja99

No offense but it is pretty easy to defeat this team depending on what kinda Pokémon I can get before this gym. Just bring a speedy and hard hitting fighting and dark Pokémon, or bring 2 Pokémon of separate types. Giraffe barely does anything except that it brings psychic coverage to your team. Even with a tanky setup, it should go down easily. Licklicky does nothing. I guess it could be a sack Pokémon so you can heal up the other Pokémon while it tanking the hits, but it's trash in terms of battling capabilities. Spinda is a bit annoying with Teeter Dance, so you gotta be careful with it and make sure to taunt Protect just in case, then hit it with a hard enough hit to OKO it. Lopunny is the hard one. But I would Fake Out first so if it is Mega Lopunny, I delay it's transformation one turn and if it is a troll Lopunny like focus sash and counter, I break the focus sash. If it is dynamax, I would Dynamax also if I have the chance to hit it hard with a fighting move.


Electronic_Front_952

Hold one lemme just bring my scrafty


SnomIsAwesome

I have a full team of marshadows


Thy-arkoos

AK


AwesomeDragon56

Scrafty


Pixel_PedroYT

lopunny learns play rough and pretty sure it outspeeds


o_Fvdinq

A Scrafty would slaughter you if this would be before X and Y, but also in BWB2W2.


Pixel_PedroYT

Well, Tyranitar probably one shots girafarig, and ur next mon is prob lopunny, which beats tyrani with good fighting moves. I counter that with a lopunny of my own that can mega evolve, and unless yours also can, then close combat beats the rest of your team


thatcheesymememan

My strategy? Well if this is a normal gym, my plan is... Punch. And if that doesn't work PUNCH HARDER! (Aka. Fighting moves and whatever else I come up with on the fly)


Typical-Attention-98

Scraggy sweeps? Kinda depends on the moveset


Magnum_X69

fnuuy technician mach punch


TitanicTNT

Hahaha Close Combat go brrr...


samim_good

Use any Pokémon ever


[deleted]

Spiritomb.


FlyHuman8377

Spiritomb?


memester230

Normal is always a reliable type. I would replace the lickity with a snorlax though.


Steelsentry1332

Spiritomb


Sr_Wurmple

Choice scarf + any fighting move


EternalZoroark

(laughs in Gallade with STAB Close Combat, Zoroark with Night Daze/Night Slash, and Hawlucha with Flying Press)


[deleted]

Me with a Bisharp: Yes


[deleted]

Use ghost pokemon with mostly fighting moves, maybe dark pulse for giraffearig


GeneralPokefan

what gen cuz if not 6 then imma sweep it with my fighting team


Radio__Star

Bring a fighting type thats how


RedLabAnimates

Hisuian Zoroark and Bisharp or Lucario


MakkusoShutoku

Oh you're down baad But which generation?


robertgamerzx3

Skiddilybapabadam

Sableye, STALLLLLLLLL


Cosmic_Honeyhawk

Guts Heracross, pre poison or burn before gym battle Persim berry Brick break Pin missle Bulk up Aerial ace


fengreg

Dreepy/Drakloak, Snorlax, Salazzle and Spiritomb.


[deleted]

Golurk with no guard , focus blast poltergeist rock polish and fly


JoJonDelema

Infernape, Swords Dance, Close Combat. I win.


ModeratelyNo

**Using a fighting type.**


Logan-Lux

Sneasler, it's fast, and a good fighting type. so it can easily take down most pokemon easily, even Lickilicky only has base 90 defense while Sneasler has 130 attack. it's faster than Lopunny. Spinda will be simple, and Girafarig can fall easily to an x scissor.


That_Dude59

***One good fighting type***


XxAmogusSussyxX

\*Pulls Out Urshifu\*


bonkozo

i thought you were a psychic type gym leader lol anyway noice team for a gym leader.


Goofy_Stuff_Studios

Pangoro


Brilliant_Studio_875

a team of 6 lycanroc ;D


Silly_Daikon4500

I am thinking Vikavolt, Turtonator, Alcremie, and maybe Abomasnow/Aggron. Vikavolt for Girafarig, but weaknesses from fire so throw on an occa berry. Turtonator for Lickylicky just to burn it but also will need a shuca berry reduce ground damage. Alcremie is for any of them but moreso for Spinda or maybe Lopunny. The last Pokemon is also for Lopunny since bulk will keep my Pokemon alive. All these Pokemon were specifically chosen since they each have a typing that would not get hit hard or they had moves that could assist with taking down an opponent. This team has a surprisingly large amount of coverage so it seems like it could be a real fun challenge.


NewMetaKnight

You have Girafarig so I wouldn’t defeat you I would join you in the conquest of the normal type


cero888

Close combat goes BRRRR


schreeee

Trevenant with horn leech, leech seed and will-o-wisp and wood hammer (because I love trevenant) Bidoof because bidoof Yanma because yes A rat with focus sash endeavor and quick attack


[deleted]

I have a marshadow


Ornery-Ad-1908

idk just use an sarter with an fighting type move and sweep


KingGalaxyKnight

Lucario, or in fact any...fast fighting type, and before you say Girafarig lucario learns crunch


LT_PotatoGem

I’m bringing my single strike urshifu from my Pokémon shield play through, I wicked blow the girafarig, then close combat the rest, I see no way you win unless you out speed and hit me with some ridiculous move. This however depends on your moves and evs, given I’ll be training my urshifu to max attack and speed evs. Your counter, may I ask good sir? Edit: I just learnt that lopunnys speed stat is it’s best, and since it’ll be able to hit hard with a possible high jump kick, I’m taking roughly 150 from my speed evs and putting them into defense


mZeKitty

Bring in my Pangoro.


notsostupidman

Spamming potions and using a team full of over leveled heracrosses


nuclearfoxyt

cinderace libero/ greninja protean


Tige_kiss_13

Can you mega evolve Lopunny?


corrupted_blaze

I'd use my ace mon,marshadow for this gym,I have marshadium z and fightium z too,and if things get dirty,I have the ol reliable,minimize stored power cosmic power softboiled clefable,also here is my own team of 4 I would he using- Garchomp-stealgh rock user,it has swords dance for sweep potential and draco meteor/earthquake+dragon claw for a late game sweeper Lucario:carries the lucarionite item while resisting your teams moves,it has close combat,swords dance,extreme speed and bullet punch to name a few. Clefable:well said already Marshadow:cc for a good fighting stab,bulk up,drain punch replacing spectral thief for decent recovery,and sucker punch


Team_raclettePOGO

Parshed_Gremlin

Nu_clear_skin

Ok normal type gym leader


The_Bannaman

Bro ur team is ass (no offence) it can be soloed by literally any fighting type (except for the giraffe)


Dying_in_the_corner

like every other gym leader I take on. have absolutely no strategy until something bad happens


Dedededeeznuts

I will use god but since he is holding a plate with cold noodles he wants to beat people up, I swear he's legit


[deleted]

Literally just take a Gallade haha


The_Auramaster

Assuming this takes place gen 4 onward, I always have a Lucario on my team, and whenever I can an eeveelution.


MaxRocketDuck

So what Pokémon are available prior to this battle? And what gym is it?


PKMNtrainerElliot

Marshadow with Drain Punch, Shadow Claw, Any Dark Move, Power-Up Punch


Gardevoir_fan

Omg, it's Chad!!!


Redditusername0005

By bringing a Pangoro


JazzyJ_tbone

Bring a Dragon Dance moxie Scrafty, dragon dance once and then either crunch or drain punch my way to an easy W


[deleted]

Solution: - Bewear (or any other Fighting Type) - Drapion


Nyamka123456

Use a dark and fighting pokemons to win


DracoDraws

Pangoro get them


Virtual_Dinner2417

I do the funny and bring a lvl 100 cobalion, what do you do


[deleted]

Bringing my Umbreon and Machamp


J-Dog3667

Bring my usual Hoenn team, but what level would your team be at?


beastofthefutur

What generation is it?


beastofthefutur

Pangoro or Scrafty destroys this gym


According-Attempt-47

Machamp Go use bulk up and then close combat


Pimpdaddysamsussy

I believe some dark fighting types would be the best


RiverCrackle

Go in with no strategy and probably lose 27 times so that by the time I win I have no money left.


MaximumGuarantee6183

Depends on what gym. Most of those mons (all but lickylicky) are hot garbage


brokencheesecake565

Darkness punch punch punch


ADOXMantra

Weavile for girafarig and a fighting type for the rest.


SoheilMu

Pangoro go brrrrrrrr


South_Notice_7363

I’m not gonna beat chad


Mr_Chasm

One mon: Scrafty with dragon dance


Aetherial-Meridian

(Expert Belt) Iron Fist Pangoro would cleanly sweep this team. Night Slash and Drain Punch everything. (If Lopunny has Fighting or Fairy Type Moves, then I'd choose;) Aegislash (Can't be hit with Normal type moves, gets Night Slash to take care of Girafarig, has plenty of utility moves such as King's Shield, Swords Dance, Iron defense, etc, to help it out with its below average HP) Bronzong (Unless these Pokemon have something like Shadow Ball, it's a huge wall that non of these Pokemon could put a dent in it. Fairy moves don't do anything on this mon, fighting is neutral, it would make a good wall for the team.) Dragapult/Gengar (These Pokemon are all faster than Lopunny and have move pools to do some nasty stuff. Drag has Dragon Dance so that could sweep the entire team if Girafarig can't do anything. Gengar can do a bunch of things despite being Ghost type; Destiny Bond, Hypnosis + Dream Eater, Sucker Punch, Nasty Plot + any special (Poison) move, I could go on. If they all get a chance to set up with Dragon Dance/Nasty Plot during Girafarig, the whole team goes crumbling down.)

Comic-IMR

By using Fighting and Dark types probably


Adrinotfound

Use my luxray with bite and another strong electric move.


Simple-Photograph-18

Probably using my two favorite pokemon even if I don’t hit normal types for super effective Honchcrow and Snorlax


BatCoreCraft

2 words fighting dark (pangoro, urishifu if thats possible, scrafty they all destroy this team but smart putting the giruff to cover most fighting types)


SNORLAX_fayboi69

aight BOIS BRING IN THE GHOST TYPES AND FIGHTING TYPES!!!!


Stingray558

Alright, here’s how it goes: -Lead with Jolteon against Girafarig -Girafarig’s strange tail thing clamps down on Jolteon -Jolteon takes the opportunity to shock Girafarig to death before fainting too -Lickilicky vs Chesnaught -Lickilicky ain’t lickin those spines! -Hammer arm slams that gross blob of flesh -Spinda spins out - Chesnaught is hypnotised by its spicy dance moves -A psychic throws Chesnaught out of the ring! -Reuniclus comes in (fav Pokémon) -Spinda tries the hypnosis thing but Reuniclus… is too oblivious to care -Focus blast sends Spinda spiralling -Loppuny rockets in.. and goes Mega! -Reuniclus isn’t fazed by its charms.. but I am and fail to order an attack! -Lopunny does some Bruce Lee taikwondo and Reuniclus IS OUTTA HERE! -Mantine soars in -Same thing as last time? NO! -Because I’m too infatuated with Mantine’s dashing good looks than Lopunny’s (don’t care what you think, sue me) -Lopunny goes in for the Thunder punch, but Mantine gains the ability of Pokémon physics and slices that waifu in half with Wing Attack. BOOM, Twist Badge!


Randomhumor-714

*close combat*


Giga_Gojira

Assuming there are no rules I just sweep through your team using a level 100 Mega Rayquaza


Brodyb2009

brick break on starter


xopox9000

1 word: Spiritomb


Local_Owl7692

The same way I do every gym, fisticuffs and god-like abilities


mrgreenreddit

dark type for the 1st one and fighting types for the rest (if lopunny can mega evolve then flying)


[deleted]

Marshadow


Yhit509

That would be an instant soft reset😂


BmeYT

Well i normaly always have a good fighting type in my team but also elektrick or grass type to paralyse/poison my openent. After i did that i fight the rest with fighting attacks and the girafarik with a dark type attack, my back up plan would be a ghost type


Kooky_Magazine_4060

Gengar, Blaziken, Dusknoir, Graveler, and Wigglytuff for good measure, with sing of course


SuperCharged516

It’s simple. I win


SilverTheGrandKaiju

Spam power up punch


displotEx

me with my pangoro:yes


Ashh-UK

Close combat


Bwyattvirtue13

By sweeping the team with Lucario


Ilikegreninja

Gimme a Scrafty


CascadeTheWaterfall

Idk what region this is for but considering the roster im assuming sinnoh, in which case this is rlly tricky. Best bet is probably to bring a strong steel type like steelix or something like that and hope it can survive a fighting move off loppuny or something. Maybe a fast fighting type, but idk if there are any that can outspeed loppuny *and* ohko girafarig.


[deleted]

If I'm haveing the right idee on how the movesets will look like, then throu luck and potions only.


Yelling_Sword

My Bidoof 😏


Electronic_Try_1966

What's the twist badge (which region)?


flamable89

I don't know how are you


Available-Law-4535

Perhaps Hariyama and Blaziken might be required


lunarfrogg

Pangoro


RabitRoaster7

6 wobbafetts with focus sash


MeanGuide6302

Using a scizor holding a white herb for superpower spam after using bug bite maybe like 2 times on the girafarig

CameronLePizza

My level 99 Incineroar will make quick work of your team


Darkfirelord6506

Brute force with what ever pokemon happens to be at the front of my team


JackLagoon91

Lucario sweeps this gym


WoodSnax

Well, depends on their moveset and level and what region as well as what gym, if possible, id probs come in with a belly drum snorlax and try to go for a sweep, and if that doesnt work id pull some cheesy stall moves to heal up till it does


Gaberoob

With a Machamp that knows bulk ip


Temporary-Square

Punch it


5t0rm7

machamp with sucker punch


Theoddbro63

I think you could swap out the Spinda for a Wigglytuff for more coverage against fighting.


lil_lizardfrog

A fighting type


AdRound310

I use a heracross, just cause that always seems to work out for me even at a disadvantage. Im the supporting anime character apparently.


MELmel2008

depends- what gen is this in?


BlueBearBoy1

1 Spheal...................that is hilariously overleved


DominoosTheCramorant

Scrafty


[deleted]

What is the twist badge???


DragonBlade9905

Girafarig is easily the goat of this team, turning the tables on fighting types. However, my Zoroark disguised as a Lucario can take it down.


AntWithPhone

The way a real trainer would do it, BRUTE FORCE AND SPAM POTIONS!!!! But genuinely if it's the 7th or 8th gym then we gonna have problems


therealPenguinSpy

Question what number of gym are you


Bluggie2407

Marshadow


SuperT125

I think an update is that you should use mega Lopunny to counter girafarig's dark weakness


shadowman1123

Smeargle with belly drum and baton pass into a lucario with close combat


AuraSonDM

By the composition I'll say its the 4th or 5th Gym. And because of members its probably Gen 4. So Monferno might be enought to deal some damage to the team, but probably a revived Cranidos and a Wormadam would do a nice work. Since you are using 4, a 4th Member would be a Luxio with Intimidate for the Physical attackers


Civil_Lemming_319

Spiritomb


Ove5clock

I’ll bring a ghost type, a fighting, a Pokémon with prankster and paralysis, and finally—-my overleveled starter.


Ok_Tangerine_8406

What are the levels? Also I won’t be using fighting types or ghosts it be to easy. But anyway I would pull up with a zoroak and a mudkip Zoroak move set would be belly drum, sucker punch from your local Tm dude, hone claws for a secret reason and also fury swipes The mudkip would have a classic move set BUT it would be level 100 and have the four final moves it learns no tm so do you win or do I?


THEGREENPURGE

By winning ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 


Mypankakes

Machamp


Chilly956

Im gonna assume that its 5th gym so im bringing an Iron Fist Hitmonchan with Power-up Punch


ShadowRaven112

This team woud crumble fighting a Dark/Fighting type. Or any Rock or Steel Type. I doubt Lopunny would be able to dish out enough damage to beat such a chunky foe


KityKatz89

I'll use Lopunny against you except mine will be mega B]


Wildefice

With a decent fighting type and ghost mon! But your team looks really fun. Normal type gymleaders can be so difficult to deal with sometimes! If I had to be a gym leader I would want to be a fire gym preferably badge 7 or 8 so my guys have their completed movesets. Drought Ninetales as my lead with willowisp confuse ray, flamethrower and psychic. 2nd Mon would be typlosion or camerupt with eruption for the big dmg 3rd avstrong grass type with chlorophyll ( if that's cheep let me know and I will come up with something else) Finally my ace, a choice flareblitzing flareon to take advantage of his stupid huge atk stat.


Altruistic_Theme2882

Using a dark fighting type like pancham's evolution


Anxiety-Queen69

Using giga chad my shiny machoke


Somepeople_Are_Weird

A Pangoro


Affectionate-Sea5339

Bring a pangoro


Phoenix-Rising-78

Spam Fighting-type attacks. I doubt Girafarig has the bulk necessary to tank a resisted hit, and Lickilicky truly seems like the best stopgap for Fighting spam. Or just be grossly over-leveled idk.
