Mega Swampert would have been a little bit better, but I'm not particularly sure, how megas are handled here. Do you switch in the unevolved Pokemon first and let it mevo in the next turn, or can we just assume that the Pokemon is already mega evolved on the switch in?
We do it where the Pokemon is already mega evolved.

And for the Swampert counter:


Rotom-Wash w/Leftovers
Nature: Bold
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP, 212 Defense, 44 Speed
Moves: Volt Switch, Hydro Pump, Will-o-Wisp, Pain Split

Walls Swampert as it dies from burn damage.

what even :< not a counter cos gatr loses 1v1 vs victini. don't give me some bs excuse like "victini is choice locked into blue flare vs abomasnow". you have to assume victini is vs gate directly, not after facing abomasnow. get yo counters right people ;-;

countering victini instead:

222 and 34 are not divisible by 4, just letting you know.


Aurorus @ Choice Specs
Trait: Refrigerate
EVs: 4hp/252spa/252spe
Modest Nature (+Sp. Atk, -Atk)
- Freeze-Dry

the lack of earthquake and toxic means ice dino can tank an hp fire (<10hko) and knock off (5hko with specs, will be 7hko later on) easily. it will lose its specs but nature power (which turns into tri attack) or freeze-dry are still clean kos, specs or not.
