    Dear Readers,

    My name is Jeffrey a.k.a. Screen or Jeffvirus and I am your coach of the Elysian Empoleon.

    I forgot to post my roster last week in the blog so here it is.
    • Tapu Koko
    • Kommo-o
    • Tapu Lele
    • Excadrill
    • Tyranitar
    • Volcarona
    • Weavile
    • Araquanid
    • Kartana
    • Mega Gengar
    • Hawlucha
    • Uxie

    I did make some changes to the team, before Tapu Lele, I had Mimikyu and before Uxie, I had Celebi.

    Prepping for Battle
    So past week we had the first week of the Pokémon Battle Cup. My first opponent was Viperific, Coach of the Amazing Arbok's. I started by looking at his roster of pokémon that he had drafted.
    • Mega Metagross
    • Marshadow
    • Alakazam
    • Garchomp
    • Venusaur
    • Infernape
    • Gliscor
    • Jolteon
    • Kabutops
    • Drapion
    • Alolan Ninetales
    • Alolan Marowak

    His Team does have some power like Mega Metagross and Marshadow, so I was really focused on preparing for those 2.

    Gattering the Squad
    So after looking at his team and my team I decided to use the following pokémon on my team.
    • Weavile
    • Excadrill
    • Kommo-o
    • Tyranitar
    • Araquanid
    • Mega Gengar

    For the exact build you can check out the following link: https://pokepast.es/b832385921dac141

    So I started breeding and building this team that I build. The special Tyranitar was created to surprise my opponent and it worked out.

    Brawl Time
    So very early on a saturday morning I got online for my battle and I won. If you want to watch the battle here is the battle video code for it: J6PG-WWWW-WWWF-3Q3H
    I was not a too tough match but I made some missplays like overpredicting the switch from the Marshadow and letting my Mega Gengar found through that. The special Tyranitar really proved his worth by immediatly getting a very important kill in the first turn of the match.

    So yeah that was my first week of the PBC I had a nice first victory and secured a top 3 position for myself I could have been ranked number 1 if I hadn't over predicted.
