I did try T-tar but initially i had problem with fighting type, thats why my lead is change from fortress (explosion-rapid spin-stealth rock) to T-tar (as lead, so he's limited to taunt/steatlh rock duty already) to aerodactyle, currently aerodactyl is ok ok, if opponent starts with a wallbreaker or revenge killer means, i have to switch to other pokemon relying on their typing to survive the hit lol

I think my currently problem is, facing ghost type and facing fighting type (still), as only venusaur can tank it then i rely on slow burn to wear him down.

Tyranitar in your case shouldn’t be the lead. Dragon dance Tyranitar is more a setup and sweep once you clear fighting types.
You can also go for weavile to revenge kill as well.

Also. No rapid spin on your starmie? Why surf instead of hydro pump?

I think gengar still has levitate in this gen. So that’s a good choice to check other ghost and fighting types.

hmm, i think can try that, setup t-tar, which one would u replace? Actually this setup i build round scizor as he's my fav pokemon lol

Just read the gengar part, it was between starmie and gengar, but i decided starmie due to bolt-beam

and i prefer surf.. idk ever since playing RBY, i have a liking towards surf as it hits decently and it was a HM move lmao

I’m really unfamiliar with DPPT OU metagame.
Does sandstorm boost special defense this gen?

I would say replace flygon.
There is a reason why it’s in RU in gen 7.
Though it might go up to UU in gen 8 given dexit.

Yes it boosts SpD, for rock type.

The nice thing about flygon is he's my immunity wall for ground and electric type for if i switch to heatran if i suspect opponent lead has Ice move and ground/electric(swampert/mamoswine) and switch to starmie if my opponent has water and electric/ground

But if your flygon lacks the punch, no setup or any pivot moves... its kind of a waste of turn even if you predict your opponent moves and switched to flygon.

I did play pokemon Y before, then i meet one random dude, i forgot how, i think in the open world, he gave me a dratini that he breed but maybe got some flaws or not yet complete yet, the dratini levels up too freakin fast, i dont recall level'ing a dragon that fast lol, before i knew it, i got torchic with speed boost (i forgot was it obtained from NPC or some guy gave me), but yea, i feel like there was no challenge... i hate but do miss the challenge of picking charmander only to get stomped by brock then misty till i overlevel, then proceed to get zapped by surge lmao, then facing the pokemon i hate the most, which was milktank, level 20 fully evolved with total base almost 500 with STAB stomp and milk drink + attract lmao

If you want some challenge just play the game fast and push on forward, avoid trainers and pokemon as much as possible, it will give you some challenge for gym battles, but yeah too fast also not fun.

I believe if the original trainer is not you, the pokemon will get boosted exp 1.5x.

24-25hour Mark would be able to clear the game as a casual player.

That final cutscene after that final raid really gave me goosebumps. Been awhile since playing a Pokemon game can be this fulfilling.

Doing postgame content now.

All I can say is money well spent, Game Freak did it again.

Just broke my personal best for the Digging Brothers..

- 8 treasures for the skill guy (previously at 4)
- 17 treasures for the stamina guy (previously at 7)

I think these 2 is the biggest scammer in the game. They even gave me only 1 treasure per dig last time. Wtf!
