KPine this is wild man. I ran the exact same line yesterday for 2 sets. Made it from 3031 to 3083 and then couldn’t find battles fast enough so I ended up tanking down to 2900 just so I could play. This team is busted though.
Thanks for the team suggestion! I had a positive net win but with Swalot (mud shot, ice beam, sludge bomb) on the lead. For this cup I hesitated to play since I dont have the best team to offer. But this one do me the magic. =)
Been seeing a lot of the wiggly azu core and still been doing well with my drifblim, s-drapion, toxapex team. The few times ive run into a mudslapper with the core has lead to my few loses though lol. Im sure the video isnt gonna help so im gonna get some more sets in before this video makes the rounds 😅 so far im 39-11 in the past two days. Great video as always man. Congrats on the board climb too
That first team you played is kind of a variation of what I’ve been running: Guzzlord, Toxapex & Sh-Drapion, however they’re using clodsire in place of Toxapex. Do you think one is more ideal than the other or are they roughly the same in terms of play? FWIW, I’m 31-9 right now with that team in the 2600s
@@mumbosauce4 Both could work as they cover the fuzz’s weakness in fairies. But I think toxapex is a little better here so you aren’t partially core-broken by an alolan ninetales lead
@@KPineThat’s a good point, appreciate the advice. Tox/Guzz is really good into the omnipresent greninja too, and tox has been feasting on Azu. Great videos as always💯
I finally bit the bullet and maxed my rank 1 shadow Grimer and tried the team. So far 2-8 :( the game just kept throwing me one curveball after the other. Among the most unusual leads were Golbat and Shiinotic of all things! The most challenging thing is in most matches I’m just unable to get the right alignment or they have two poison in the back. I need to rewatch the video and see if I’m missing something.
Ok, I have a rank 22 Shadow grimer I can build, but it still has frustration. I do not want to invest 650k stardust bulding a subotimal shadow grimer so I'm going single moved. Which would you pick, mud bomb or sludge bomb?
@@bankaiKb Thank you! If you don’t have a Grimer and still want to run the team, Shadow Golurk is what I’d replace it with but because of that ground typing, you will have a tougher time against opposing grass types and poison types with water coverage moves
@jorgecabezascarrera4425 this is one of the "hidden" secrets to climb you just out resource lower elo people to make it easier, that's why you see ppl.use thing like grimer shad drif because they cost alot of dust, thus higher chance of other not having "resources" they have equals easy gain 300 points in 2 days
@@jorgecabezascarrera4425 You could potentially try clodsire or swalot but it won’t be quite the same team as mud slap is definitely extremely helpful here
@@jermverde1 Swap into azu right away and either play for switch advantage or energy advantage grimer where you’ll then throw throw a mud bomb at the golurk and then swap into the wiggly
You must be the luckiest player with this team, i struggled to go positive with this team. Hard countered almost every single match. I think i went positive in one set

Rank 1 shadow grimer is definitely a solid investment! Sometimes the matchups can be tricky but you got this!

Checking back pine. I didnt have enough xl for grimer yet. Used nidorina instead. Worked well so far
