Stopping at 1651, I hope I qualify for Taiwan PBL with this
Special thanks to Adi (ck49) and MichaelderBeste for releasing the Baltimore Runner Up team report right before the GC started so I made quick edits to the team and just ran with it

ck49's Team Report: youtu.be/J9TkWUm4ouI?si=p6qh… (inspiration of the team)
The sneasler rain dance slot should probably be something else, I just don't find myself using it in practice
Global Challenge for regulation M-C is a little more than a week away, how are you prepping it?

I brought Garchomp-Z to a stacked grassroots locals and bubbled out of top cut
While the team isn't perfect, it demonstrates how Garchomp-Z can be effective against popular megas and being able to outspeed most of the mons in format if positioned properly

Consider trying out the team if you want to build Garchomp-Z, it's the MVP for my winning matches today
Also got called out for forgetting Gengar's Shadow Tag mid-set from a misplay, I'm a clown

I made a website for viewing Replica Teams without needing to log into Champions, as long as you have its code: champions.karthikb.dev/repli…
You can also use it to grab the Showdown export without needing to manually do so yourself: champions.karthikb.dev/repli…
Check it out!

Here's My MBL Team and an associated doc (Light-Prep + after-thoughts) if you're ever interested in reading it, paste in the doc as well feel free to grab them:

I hope this unc's misfortunate can be of some entertainment value to others
I’ve contemplated about actually making a post of my team for MBL because I fear that it will turn into a rant post, but I’ll try to make a positive note out of it
I just wish I get to play mons in the yearly event and see my improvements reflected like everyone else does
I don't really have an opinion on OTS with natures considering that is already the format we use in TPC events, however I'd like to offer an idea of sorts:
Stat creativity (speed specifically) exists even if natures are revealed, it's always a optimization cost issue🧵(1/7)
Specific stat optimizations out of designated natures are cost inefficient, if you intentionally underspeed as Jolly KG you lose out on higher damage which could be provided by Adamant, you sacrifice bulk if you train speed on Brave KG (6/7)
