With Regulation H being a lower power format, it goes without saying that you're going to see more variety (theoretically). This doesn't mean incredibly unique teams all the time, but rather different variations of the same archetype can f…
As a nice surprise, The Pokemon Company has decided to give us all a little vacation from power-creep and announced Regulation H! From September to January, we'll essentially be returning to Series 1++ (Regulation A). This is a great oppor…
A quick blogpost just to tide things over while I get things set up for Regulation H! At the moment, I am participating in the Opal League, a team draft league that allows provided me the opportunity collaborate and play against strong pla…
I think this post is going to be very different from all my previous ones. A reflection. It has been 2 generations thus far and I never really had an appropriate avenue to express a lot of the emotions that I personally felt in my position…
Hello everyone! It has been a little bit since my last post but I was trying to figure out a team that would be interesting and fun, and I did! This was also mostly an excuse to get Snorlax to do some work on a team. The following members …
Hello! Tofu and Snorlax have come together just before Regulation G begins to give you an update on the metagame's development. Currently, at the tail end of the testing month, we have seen some teams surrounding certain strong Restricted …
Tofu and Snorlax back to give you a heads up on one of our new favourite Pokémon, Terapagos. The Terastal Turtle has seemingly been a headache for quite a few players to both play with and against, and I'd like to consider myself pretty de…
Greetings everyone! Not long ago Regulation G has been announced allowing a single Restricted Pokémon to be used on your teams. This introduces a whole new dimension to consider, and an entirely new metagame, when teambuilding. It may seem…
[Sorry if this post is a bit barebones, life has been busy!] Celebrating Pokémon's 27th anniversary! A team that features our favourite, electrifying, ever-present mouse, Pikachu! With it's special item, Light Ball, it can turn itself into…
Hello again, Tofu and Snorlax here. To quickly run through the intro, this blogpost is a follow up to my Cores Course! I wanted to showcase some sets/cores whose teams I didn't feel were entirely worth the real estate of an entire blogpost…
Hello everyone! Tofu and Snorlax here to bring you the latest in VGC analysis (or attempt to, at least). With Regulation F essentially a "wild west" with so many high-powered teams seemingly finding solid success, a breakdown seems necessa…
Tofu and Snorlax here back from Blueberry Academy's Terrarrium and to wish you all a Merry Christmas, Happy New Year!!! After surveying a slew of new options brought by the introduction of The Indigo Disk, I have decided to put pen to pape…
Hello everyone, Tofu and Snorlax here to bring you a new team! Not just us however, for this is a special collaboration with our resident Trick Room expert, Progatog! In a serendipitous moment of mentioning the same idea, we decided to put…
Hello everyone. Tofu here to bring you a team that Snorlax is finally participating in! I know it took a while for me to actually get a rental out but I had other life priorities that are definitely more important (That, and I wanted somet…
Hello everyone! Tofu and Snorlax here to provide you insight into your available options for tackling the upcoming Regulation E metagame. Now that the DLC is out, and we have gleamed tons of information through in-game and external data, t…
Hello everyone! Tofu and (Soon-to -actually here) Snorlax coming at you with an info-dump of the Pokémon I'm personally going to be looking forward to seeing in the first DLC. The following will showcase sets that are what I'd probably att…
Hello everyone! I have returned from my little holiday from graduating! It still feels unreal to be done with University. Me and Snorlax have a new team to showcase that I actually built in about 3 days since I wanted to have a new rental …
Hello! Tofu and Snorlax here, with our new Regulation D rental team that has performed extremely well already. DetectivePikaVGC came to me with the concept and we worked on it together! His input was invaluable and gave us the perfect base…
Hey all, Tofu and Snorlax here to give you our latest thoughts on Regulation D! If I am being particularly honest, I'm not exactly having as much fun as I hoped this ruleset, but it is getting better! I noticed certain things that may be c…
Hi everyone, Tofu and Snorlax here with a team I thought people would enjoy for the season! I didn't do a deep run as I usually would so I parked at top 200, and I felt the clock was ticking and I wanted to focus on Regulation D, but this …
Hi everyone, Tofu and Snorlax inviting you back to our table as we had to start cooking for HOME considering it has come! __________________________________________________________ Just as a disclaimer, I have no clue whether or not these …
Hi everyone, it's Tofu and Snorlax. This post is just a further update on my previous Genjutsu team that I've been running, and while laddering I have noticed a meta shift occur. The meta shift has been rough for even the updated version o…
Tofu and Snorlax here to bring you some of our favourite VGC sets so far in this generation of competitive!! __________________________________________________________
Hello, Tofu and Snorlax here! I have decided to do a quick 2nd post more for my sake as I explore and note down some sets I feel might be interesting to use as Regulation C goes on, and potentially could be useful for future Regulations. _…
Tofu and Snorlax here! I guess for my first ever post I just wanna talk about one of my proudest, despite flawed, team. Meet the team, named due to its strong board control making your opponent feel like they are trapped in a Genjutsu x) _…
