    • Pokemon VGS Team Help! Please Read!!!

    Hi, I'm planning on going to the Pokemon Video Game Showdown in Phoenix next month, and I need to come up with a team.
    First of all, I don't know what to use because I'm used to 100v100 battling, and not 50v50...

    I'm worried that either the teams stats/moves won't be good enough, or that EV training them won't be strong enough, I want the team to have Pokemon that can be very strong for that level, even though they are not fully leveled up.

    Second of all, I can't use Garchomp, because it doesn't evolve into that til 55. (Which I was planning on using...)

    I COULD use Dragonite, but it'd be mild and Toys R Us-ified so I can't EV train it.

    I have a bad IV'd but Good EV'd Gengar... and a Vaporeon that I didn't breed for so it doesn't have wish/baton pass and is EV trained.
    So I don't think I can use those.

    Third of all, it says; "...4-6 Pokemon on your Team..." is it going to be 2 separate pairings for people with 4 and people 6? or Should I just go with 6?

    I have an idea what to do?!
    I've never been to an official tourney, and I really want to go for the Shiny Milotic, plus I love the video games....

    My Current Idea for my team is

    1. Aerodactyl
    2. Sub-petaya Empoleon
    3. Infernape (Life Orb)
    4. Togekiss
    5. Blank
    6. Blank

    But I don't even know if that's good!
    I had t take out Rotom and life orb Salamence, obviously.

    Please, please help! Thanks so much in advance!

    (BTW, I'm posting this in many forums as possible, so as to get as many responses as possible.)

    I'm sorry that I am freaking out so much, I just don't have much time! 20 days!

    Huh, I'd need to see movesets, personally. Also, if you have any friends who have battled competitively in the past or WiFi, fight off some teams, or ask for their advice. Perhaps something that would be more effective against ground, because if you go against a gravity user and an EQer, you could be in big trouble. Togekiss could work if you have some kinks ironed out, but you never know...

    Edit: Try to find out if the tournament lowers your pokemon's level like it does in the Tower on d/p/p, I've gone to 1 convention where that happened.

    • It doesn't matter about the levels, as long as you give them the full EVs, they will still be as powerful when they get put up to Lv. 50. It won't make a difference.

    However, this doesn't belong here. I suggest you make a thread in the Strategies and Movesets forum, where they will be able to help you out better.
