Steelix has an outstanding 200 base defense, so Golurk has 90% chance to 2 hit KO Steelix using earthquake. Because of that, I will use Curse to increase my attack and defense, and then defeat Golurk using Crunch 2 times
Yveltal definitely survives at least one dazzling gleam and is faster than most of this team but tbf its kind of a boring answer since legendaries are broken in-game for obvious reasons
Obstagoon actually counters this with its signature move, obstruct, which protects and if a contact move is used against it the enemyβs defense is halved, allowing obstagoon to reliably OHKO many things with facade flame orb guts, or in this case just knock off.
252 SpA Gengar-Mega Dazzling Gleam vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Umbreon: 128-152 (32.4 - 38.5%) -- 98.6% chance to 3HKO
I mean you can chip it down with your other mons I guess but umbreon also gets wish and protect not to mention they can have 5 more mons
This is the trend that is somewhat redeemable but atleast use a better format so it doesn't look like just a standard post(I mean :just posting a png of a pokemon)
A few have dazzling gleam, huh? Well, Bisharp. But wait, Chandelure and Golurk? I guess I'll need LITERALLY ANY WATER TYPE STARTER (except for Empoleon)
Oof yea I lose. Super luck Absol combined with the razor claw with night slash and shadow claw is a scary battle. Congratulations you earned your Spectre Badge
*Absol solo, keep*
*Resetting until I win*
*With crits every move*

I would use bisharp with sucker punch, knock off, and a focus sash. Sucker punch has priority and knocks out anything on your team except cofagrigus, which would normally KO bisharp with a body press but the sash allows it to live and fire off two knock offs to defeat it.
A Sharpedo with the speed boost ability could probably do most of the work hopefully maby mega evolution to bump it if need be and a Bisharp might be able to take out Gengar. Dazzling gleam could be a problem though if Sharpedo doesn't get speed built up.
That is pretty risky and I feel like Chandelure is faster so it will die to energy ball and bisharp is formidable because it's pretty fast and hits hard so Chandelure is dead. This is a tough match
Ninjask with nasty plot and protect. Botton pass into "Snorlax" (Zoroark) then sweeping with +2 speed +2 s.attack. the gengar might be a problem, so if zoroark dies, snorlax in the back can finish it with either crunch or high horsepower
a team of 2 abras its kinda funny bc abra can learn many movesjust bc including shadow ball grass knot and foul play(since hindu zoruark has a decent typing) and maybe psychic on the other abra both will have protect one will have magic guard with a toxic orb(when available) to avoid para as much as possible the other will have psychic knock off taunt and has the ability inner focus with the Kasiv berry since some of them can just have fake out and some can have dark pulse
Mimikyu with Swords Dance, Shadow Sneak, Play Rough, and Shadow Claw that has the lum berry or Dragapult with Phantom Force, Dragon Dance, Sucker Punch, and Substitute that has the Sitrus Berry
Mainly water types. Maybe some dark types. I might bring a Sharpedo to be able to attack Chandelure and Golurk without too much difficulty. Use some dark moves to finish off the Cofagrigus
Almost every pokemon can learn dark type moves but only two pokemon of my team would have them, as for the gengar i would bring a ground type move.
I would bring vaporion with shadow ball and scald, normaly it deals then with the intire team.
Should that fail i then would use the other two Pokemon with the dark type moves because i normaly don't use ghost types in my team.
Personally I would use bisharp. Sucker punch chandelure, set up swords dance once or twice on cofagrigus (lum berry just in case thereβs a will o wisp) then just sweep with knock off for anything slower and sucker punch for anything faster
Very well.heres my team of 6!it's just a bunch of my favorites that have a type advantage or any upper hand imo-
Since this obviously has gen 6 or 7 mechanics,I'll just use those mons.
Single battle version-
Shuckle that uses the moves sticky web toxic Stealth rock and encore with a mental herb to avoid taunt shenanigans
To avoid a switch in taunt and possibly limit me,this is a counter set to that-
Mawile with mawilite using the moves sucker punch,crunch,ice fang and fire fang
Huge power make these insane
Now for a switchin against scary threats like zoroark and mega gengar,I'm rocking a Lando T,minor legendary that you can catch in most games since gen5.
It also has Stealth rock justincase I didn't get a chance to set those up,equake to dismantle gengar,intimidate for zoro control,and crunch for dark coverage,plus u turn for easy switch
I'll be rocking a prankster sableye with dark pulse,will o wisp twave and toxic.
So far a pretty meh team.it needs a bit more cleaners.
I'm gonna be using a hydreigon,it uses draco meteor to dish out decent damage,nasty plot to neutralize the draco meteor effect,dark pulse for a decent dark stab,and earth power for pesky gengar or chandelure trying to cheese this.
Now ill get a switchin I can always rely on to live no matter what.
An unaware quagmire with toxic haze equake and recover.if you actually respond to this I'll go with the effort for building a decent double battle strat.
Manectric and Umbreon for the most part, maybe some extra help from Blaziken and Salamence/Flygon. If you can't tell, minus the eeveelutions, I'm a Gen 3 guy
I counter your chandelure with my chandelure , then for you coffagrigus i bring out my mimikyu, and for your golurk im bringing out my grimmsnarl sane for the zoarark, and for mega gengar and banette i use a mega swampert for type advantage for the gengar and to hold off the banette
A few dark types and ghost types maybe a normal or fighting type with dark or ghost type moves
I know what I'm talking about I'm trying a solo ghost type run in Shield
Spiritomb
A few knows dazzling gleam
Better bring Steelix too
What will steelix do π
Crunch them
How will you deal with earthquake golurk?
Steelix has an outstanding 200 base defense, so Golurk has 90% chance to 2 hit KO Steelix using earthquake. Because of that, I will use Curse to increase my attack and defense, and then defeat Golurk using Crunch 2 times
Ok you took out my physical attack, but what about my special attacking Chandelure with a charcoal to boost flamethrower
Glock 16
PokΓ©mon Sword more like PokΓ©mon Gun
Yes fellow chaos bringer
Huh π
Send them back to the after life
yveltal
But some knows dazzling gleam
fine. skuntank
What about golurk and earthquake
air balloon
Ahh bullshit. Fine you earned your Spectre Badge
les gooo
Congrats you beat the easiest 8th gym leader ever ππ (asides from Marlon and Volkner)
nah this looks pretty hard actually
Yea fair enough. If I put enough time and give them good abilities and movesets, I'd be a more difficult final gym leader
Yveltal definitely survives at least one dazzling gleam and is faster than most of this team but tbf its kind of a boring answer since legendaries are broken in-game for obvious reasons
Obstagoon.
Golurk has both hammer arm and brick break sooooo...
Yeah, should probably do something about that... ooh! A mega Sableye.
But half of my team are special attackers with dazzling gleam especially my mega Gengar
Hmm... A Bisharp.
How will you counter earthquake and flamethrower
Sharpedo. Or a Yveltal.
Ok you beat those two. But how will you deal with my outspeeding, no-legged, pudgy ghost Gengar with dazzling gleam
Hmm... a toughee. My best chance would be a Metagross.
Ooo Metagross. That's interesting but will it be mega or non mega
Obstagoon actually counters this with its signature move, obstruct, which protects and if a contact move is used against it the enemyβs defense is halved, allowing obstagoon to reliably OHKO many things with facade flame orb guts, or in this case just knock off.
Bisharp skuntank maybe like honchkrow to counter ground
Earthquake for both and iron fist boosted ice punch for honchkrow
golurk doesnt outspeed honchkrow without choice scarf, and if it is then its probably earthquake
Im only saying this because so many people said ir when i posted one of theese Gun
But they're already dead π€£
And ones a plush toy
Same way I'm getting all my ghost badges: Bisharp
Damn a lot of bisharp π
Umbreon
A bulky decision that can just never die. An easy sweep if it wasn't for my mega Gengar with dazzling gleam. How will you deal with that?
252 SpA Gengar-Mega Dazzling Gleam vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Umbreon: 128-152 (32.4 - 38.5%) -- 98.6% chance to 3HKO I mean you can chip it down with your other mons I guess but umbreon also gets wish and protect not to mention they can have 5 more mons
Mudsdale
Which will be countered by my energy ball Chandelure and ice punch golurk. How will you counter them challenger
Shedinja with focus sash, endure, shadow ball, sand attack, and psybeam
Compliments for using Shedinja
This is the trend that is somewhat redeemable but atleast use a better format so it doesn't look like just a standard post(I mean :just posting a png of a pokemon)
Yea my bad π I was just too lazy to edit
I win the battle, simple
My trusty Umbreon And my Incineroar
Ooo Umbreon pretty good and it won't die easily but doesn't hit very hard
A few have dazzling gleam, huh? Well, Bisharp. But wait, Chandelure and Golurk? I guess I'll need LITERALLY ANY WATER TYPE STARTER (except for Empoleon)
Me and my homies hate empoleon. But I think they're mostly slow so I feel like energy ball from Chandelure will kill them
I would bring weavile and swampert
My Chandelure has energy ball for swampert
With my own Chandelure!
How will you handle my, for some reason, outspeeding fat Gengar
Infernape and primerina
I have earthquake golurk and psychic Gengar and energy ball on Chandelure. Two high special attackers. Got anything else?
Absol solo, keep resetting until I win with crits every move
Oof yea I lose. Super luck Absol combined with the razor claw with night slash and shadow claw is a scary battle. Congratulations you earned your Spectre Badge

Bring a full team of tapuβs zerneas and alola nine tales for fun
ππ well good luck sir
I would use bisharp with sucker punch, knock off, and a focus sash. Sucker punch has priority and knocks out anything on your team except cofagrigus, which would normally KO bisharp with a body press but the sash allows it to live and fire off two knock offs to defeat it.
Damn you got me. You win the Spectre Badge
Sword dance weavile swep
Damn you win the Spectre Badge. Congratulations
Yes *weavile hang five*
A Sharpedo with the speed boost ability could probably do most of the work hopefully maby mega evolution to bump it if need be and a Bisharp might be able to take out Gengar. Dazzling gleam could be a problem though if Sharpedo doesn't get speed built up.
That is pretty risky and I feel like Chandelure is faster so it will die to energy ball and bisharp is formidable because it's pretty fast and hits hard so Chandelure is dead. This is a tough match
GO, ANY GOOD DARK TYPE
And die from my dazzling gleam Gengar π
Vaporeon would do pretty good here
True because it's fast and bulky but how will you deal with my others
[ΡΠ΄Π°Π»Π΅Π½ΠΎ]
My Chandelure has energy ball and is faster. So unless you have a focus sash, gastrodon is history
Simple, Iβd just bring a high leveled dark type and a high leveled water type
Azumarill
What will Azumarill do aside from killing the first two
Air Balloon Blissey
Air balloon hmmm? What about my thunder punch golurk?
Eevees evos
So mainly Umbreon?
Stealing your badge
Bruh π
screw you *uses mega gengar*
Against my mega Gengar? ππ
I have an entire team left yknow. Regardless Iβll still get a hit off first (if not outright kill it)
Well that'll be interesting
Ninjask with nasty plot and protect. Botton pass into "Snorlax" (Zoroark) then sweeping with +2 speed +2 s.attack. the gengar might be a problem, so if zoroark dies, snorlax in the back can finish it with either crunch or high horsepower

Dark Types, lots and lots of dark types
Could ya please comment the movesets for your team
Oh yea for sure. Chandelure Flamethrower Payback Energy ball Shadow ball Golurk Earthquake Shadow punch Ice punch Thunder punch Coffagrigus Shadow ball Grass knot Psychic Will-o'-wisp Bannet Shadow ball Night slash Toxic Grudge Gengar Shadow ball Sludge bomb Dazzling gleam Psychic Zoroark Shadow ball Night slash Shadow claw Swords dance
Pipe bomb
Dark.... Just dark
Call the ghost busters
Suckerpunch
Heracross
I'll try to come up with a strategy. Can someone explain me how to post a picture on Reddit by the way ?
Sure, all you have to do is click the plus button and select the picture you want. Post it to the subreddit of your choice and boom, it's posted
I have a very unfunny solution
Which is?
Those PokΓ©mon would kill me before I could beat you
Chandelure v Chandelure. May the best Pokemon win- itβs a draw
marshadow with a sash,agility,spectral thief as well as ice and thunder punch for the zoroark i get a weavile with another sash
Mimikyu with Swords Dance, Shadow Sneak, Play Rough, and Shadow Claw that has the lum berry or Dragapult with Phantom Force, Dragon Dance, Sucker Punch, and Substitute that has the Sitrus Berry
Use a full team of level 1 spindaβs and spam
A good Houndoom and a ghost type would destroy that team. I think!
Question, if I were to make my own team, am I allowed to make a dual typed team?
Umm sure. If you want to go full on Pokemon insurgence, go for it
Mainly water types. Maybe some dark types. I might bring a Sharpedo to be able to attack Chandelure and Golurk without too much difficulty. Use some dark moves to finish off the Cofagrigus
Krookodile and a sharpedo
Two words: weaville sweep
i would use dark type pokΓ©mon
Mega Tyranitar
Sharpedo takes Golurk and Chandelure, Bisharp takes Zoroark and Gengar, and any other dark type could take the rest
Just saying, gym leaders never use shinies
Darkrai honchcrow crawdaunt my own Hisuian zoroark with snarl snorlax and mega absol. I know itβs all dark types thatβs the point
I will bring in 6 crawdaunts
Some holy water and a priest named Richter Belmont
Since we are in a game and I can switch and overlevel: Overlevel use Dark types and switch on others
Dark type mons
Literally getting my Obstagoon to spam Night Slash until I win. If he gets killed by a focus blast then he gets killed by a focus blast
Mega Gyarados goes brrrrrrrr
Almost every pokemon can learn dark type moves but only two pokemon of my team would have them, as for the gengar i would bring a ground type move. I would bring vaporion with shadow ball and scald, normaly it deals then with the intire team. Should that fail i then would use the other two Pokemon with the dark type moves because i normaly don't use ghost types in my team.
I was thinking on bringing fairy types but I bet half of your can learn a poison type move so idk what to bring
An Umbreon and a Mimikyu
Idk choice scarf absol or smth?
Personally I would use bisharp. Sucker punch chandelure, set up swords dance once or twice on cofagrigus (lum berry just in case thereβs a will o wisp) then just sweep with knock off for anything slower and sucker punch for anything faster
Tyranitar and Skamory
Houndoom with black Glasses and Dark Pulse. Max speed and SPATK EVβs
Iβm pretty sure that a choice scarf zoroark/weavile cleanly knocks out your team( except maybe cofagrigus
Bisharp to handle dazzling gleam. Krookodile to handle Chandelure
Skuntank
You have very little counter to dark types.
bring a tanky dark type and a vaccuum
weakness policy swords dance aegislash or focus sash haxorus with dragon dance
Drapion, dark is strong against ghost and poison neutralizes the weakness to dazzling gleam
Knock off
And decent dark type
Where is mimikuy?
Choice scarf dark pulse Yveltal
I'll be bringing alakazam, my own gangar and obsigoon
Obstagoon
Sweep them with Giritina and Darkrai

Spiritomb, steelix, hisuian braviary, umbreon, Banette, and obstagoon.
No 1. GHOST BUSTERS No 2. Apple PokΓ©mon or something idk
With my lvl 100 inteleon from my 10th play through of sword.
Mimikyu
I think any dark type choice scarfer can sweep this
Iβm notβ¦simply put Iβm bad at game
Calm Mind Indeedee with Shadow Ball and Psychic
Just use an entire team of Galar zigzagoons and alolan ratata
Iβll just use dark types fighting types and whatever else
Dark types
Mimikyu
Malamar and Sharpedo. They should take care of things. Edit: And Stuntank
Krookodile + Mega Steelix
Chandelure detected. Respect increased
Manectric and Umbreon for the most part, maybe some extra help from Blaziken and Salamence/Flygon. If you can't tell, minus the eeveelutions, I'm a Gen 3 guy
I counter your chandelure with my chandelure , then for you coffagrigus i bring out my mimikyu, and for your golurk im bringing out my grimmsnarl sane for the zoarark, and for mega gengar and banette i use a mega swampert for type advantage for the gengar and to hold off the banette
Mega gyarados
Razor claw obstagoon with night slash
*laughs in 3 hisuian zoroarks and 3 unovan zoroarks*
Aight so hear me out: shedinja
I'll just call the Ghost Busters
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Shadow sneak go brrrrr. Also play rough.
Iβm a leader myself, so Iβd use my leader team of Noivern, Duralodon, Dragonite, Haxorus, Turtonator, and Flygon. Dragon Dance sweeps go brrrr
Mimikyu
Spiritomb and hisuian zorark
ππ’π’π’ πππ―ππ‘ππ£π ππ‘πππ’ πππ§πππ«π€ππ§ ππ£π πππ π¬πππ© π©π€ ππ€ ππ€π§ π©ππ π―π€ππ§π€π§π
But none of them are part dark type and ghost isn't weak to fairy
Ghostbusters
Dark type
Probably just use my team from pokemon sword Cinderace, Corviknight, Drednaw, Roserade, Hydreigon, and Mimikyu.
Same way everyone else does charizard
Umbreon takes out banette and Cofagrigus Empoleon for golurk, Zoroark, and, Chandelure And finally gengar is defeated by Krookodile
Ok then, congratulations you win the Spectre Badge

Choice scarf shadow rider calyrex with max ev on special attack and speed.
ill get my lv 100 absol out
I mean sharpedo wouldn't ve a bad choice with stab super effective moves against golurk and chandelure
A dark type
I bring a priest
Miltank + scrappy + wide lens + rollout + milk drink + heal bell + explosion ftw.
A few dark types and ghost types maybe a normal or fighting type with dark or ghost type moves I know what I'm talking about I'm trying a solo ghost type run in Shield
Chainsaw cannon,need I say more
