+250 ELO!!! ESCAVALIER PIERCES ITS WAY INTO EXPERT RANK IN THE FOSSIL CUP - Pokemon GO Battle League

[@TheRealMrAndrew]

Dude! Where has this team been? Just went 4-1 and I haven’t even finished watch the vid. Thank you, KZbin algorithm, for suggesting this vid. Haven’t been able to climb at all in this cup. What do you do against registeel?

[@shmeaty18]

glad it's working for you! regi was so uncommon early on in this cup's meta that i didn't factor it in as a potential corebreaker, but it isn't as terrible as it would seem. if it's on lead, i think the best way to play the matchup out is to play out the 0 shield and soft lose with kingdra, then farm down with escav. escav energy is super hard to punish in this cup

I have rarely seen Swampert running amok in this meta

[@shmeaty18]

i remember it was super good a rotation or two ago, but it really doesn't like poli and ferro being on just about every team

[@aston-ishing]

I wish it worked for me. Went 1-4, 0-5, 1-4 with it. Am officially done with this RPS cup.

[@shmeaty18]

@@aston-ishing damn, i'm sorry to hear that man. i can't even front the fact that this is def an RPS cup and it can be stupidly frustrating to keep losing lead and swap and consequently losing games. honestly wish i could do this but once the game becomes frustrating in that way, it's probably best to take a few days off

[@aston-ishing]

@@shmeaty18 all's good! Yea I have tried a few teams and it all wound up being pretty much the same. But I have found escav to be quite a niche core breaker for quite a few. Tried it with ferror and lanturn, finally a positive set 😅

[@chloedadon]

the coolest and best to ever do it!!

NO U 🔄🫦

[@SemiDuck12]

thanks for displaying this team! i'll try to use it during the fossil cup this season or next

[@shmeaty18]

for sure! definitely try it out when you can and lmk how it goes for you!

@@shmeaty18 i dont have escavalier but i went on a 10 streak win with kingdra, golisopod and ferrothorn

[@shmeaty18]

@@SemiDuck12 that's massive! a 10 win streak is nutty, good stuff!

That's some shweet shmeat right there

[@elimarburger1659]
