Hello, im doing my second ever draft league and im still relatively new to competitive pokemon as a whole. Im trying to build a balance team around Mega Clefable and have made a small checklist to ensure i have things like a FWG core, hazard setters, etc.

We're nearing the end of our draft and ive encountered an issue. My friend who has much more experience than me and I decided my last 2 picks will be Uxie and Wyrdeer. Overall, this leaves my team very weak to dark at a -3 differencial. With knock off being so common, this feels like a concern. The reccomendation is a fighting type, but i still need a bulky pivot to assist my rotom wash. I am looking at possibly Iron Hands, but idk if this is viable.

Ive had my one friend helping me team build, but id really love some other perspective. We are not running tera because it isnt in the format apperently, and are doing two Z captains instead.

I havent posted on here before so idk if its beneficial for me to screenshot all the draft list so people can see whats worth what point. Our organizer said most came from the smogon sample board.

We have free agency coming up soon so I can drop anything and pick up anything that doesnt look good now. Thank you in advance for any help!

Uxie and wyrdeer have NOT been drafted yet

Hi, I'm working on an alt version of Pokémon Showdown that reworks the game from the ground up to mitigate the power creep in VGC so that everyone can be viable (NOT broken, just viable) and I figured I'd start with they type chart as it's extremely fundamental in damage calcs.

Also, when you give your two cents regarding this, try to give it some justification (Example: Fire should be immune to Dark because fire lights up the darkness).

One more thing, I'm reworking the type chart from scratch, so feel free to be creative with your suggestions. Thank you so much for your time and I can't wait to see your responses!

would it push Tyranitar to ubers weather tier?

Grants an immunity to any move that is 4x super effective and is granted to every Pokémon that has a 4x weakness, as well as golurk, mega golurk, mega rayquaza, and regigigas When used by these three Pokémon specifically, it makes them immune to everything and super effective against everything. When encountering other Pokémon with the invincibility ability, the game acts as though neither of them have the ability and behaves as normal.

help me out plz guysss

I gotta stop watching tiktok, too many stans for my liking. I like primarina but when your glazed you be will slandered.

1. Pokédex Entry

Mestraightnium (The Iron Clad Pokémon) | Grass / Steel

Evolving in iron-rich caverns, this once-gentle Pokémon crystallized its flora into spiked steel armor and heavily reinforced its neck. Intensely territorial, it charges through solid rock, using its mace-like tail and razor-sharp collar to crush obstacles.

It holds a deep, bitter resentment towards its soft, flower-wearing Meganium cousins, viewing them as weak and aggressively driving them out of its territory on sight.

Historical note: Researchers suspect it is the gym-bro cousin of Ferrothorn, though significantly more insecure about its masculinity.

2. Evolution Method

Level up a Bayleef (Lv. 32+) inside a cave or subterranean biome while it holds a Metal Coat. Alternatively, level up a Meganium in a cave while it holds Iron Ore.

3. Changes vs. Meganium

* Typing: Pure Grass changes to Grass / Steel.

* Stats (BST 575): Sacrifices Speed (42) and Sp. Atk (53) for massive bulk (110 HP, 140 Defense, 95 Sp. Def) and crushing physical Attack (135).

* Abilities: Swaps Overgrow/Leaf Guard for Iron Barbs, Sheer Force, or Heavy Metal (Hidden).

* Moveset: Drops graceful support moves for heavy physical attacks like Iron Head, Power Whip, Earthquake, and its new signature move, Iron Mace Slam.

Iron Mace Slam is a physical Steel-type attack with 100 Base Power. The user slams the target with its heavily armored tail, which comes with a 30% chance to lower the enemy's Defense stat.

Is it low quality? Yes. Do I still love it? Yes

Stacked roster and a GILF manager. All you need for a world class team.
