Love that I got ditto honestly they're one of my favorites in this game with the "No, you" strategy

This team was an absolute blast.

Really hard to pick the mvp they all pulled so much weight in their own regard Galvantula for setting webs and having nasty SpA attacks, Pacharisu for being amazing support with screens and TWave

Having a double pickachu combo was interesting but nice to have double zippy zaps and the stab brick breaks from Luchador Pika was nice

Zebstrika was a monster with illuminate you get basically guranteed thunder and blizzard attacks they handled most of the champion fight really

Toxtricity was abominable with boombursts and overdrives

This might have been easiest run so far I'd rate this team for being random like a 8.5/10

going to do random6 mono normal next I think

This was a very fun run except for early game because a lot of these guys were late bloomers

Lt Surge made me give up for like 2 weeks the rematch wasn't as bad

the gym leader that probably gave me the most trouble after Surge was Sabrina because I had to retool my whole team to counter her trick room antics. changing my speed IVs to 0, iron ball no speed EVs, etc.

Lance was toughest out of E4 with the notorious Dialga. Everyone else was pretty easy requiring only a reset or two. Even the champion was pretty easy compared to lance only took a few save states and resets and i got kind of lucky that ditto only used freeze-dry against Mega Glalie instead of the obvious earthquake they could've used

Ice in general is kind of busted with slush rush and aurora veil. It was very fortunate I got two snow setters in the mystery gift.

MVP is kind of hard to pick they all had really good synergy. I'd say least valuable was Abomasnow only mainly used to set up snow again if Sophia was down, they were just too slow and too squishy. Sandslash was a beast and same with Beartic and Arctovish came in clutch when they could especially against Blaine.

Playing with EVs turned on felt like a double edge sword because it really sucks early game before you have access to vitamins at Celadon and EV resetter in Saffron.

Looking for recommendations on what type to do next mystery gift random mono.

What an absolute unit of a monster, lets see if he comes in clutch against the champion too

Arctovish basically soloed the team with slush rush fishous rend and Beartic came in at the end to clean up Typhlosion with getting past priority with aqua jet

cool shiny though this is 3rd shiny ive seen on this run so far

This team had a lot of ups and downs but we pulled through in the end. E4 was a nightmare specifically Bruno's Zacian and Lance's Dialga. Champion wasnt as bad as I thought they'd be thanks to Clefable setting up against Metagross and being able to switch out before ditto copied their stats.

MVP of the run was definitely Clefable

having support mons was nice and klefki and illumise did their parts

dachsbun was an awesome physical wall with EV training but really lacked power unless i was spamming body press

Shiinotic honestly kind of was dead weight besides getting some sleeps in

Mega Mawhile was an awesome revenge killer and if i could get a couple sword dances off i could sweep a team

Thank you to anyone who offered advice on the run when i was getting walled by giovanni

got to set up against ogerpon and swept the rest of this team with stored power.

Finally committed, my girlfriend talked me into it. My hair had been thinning for a while and I was pretty self conscious about

Ive been able to get him down to last two pokemon only to have honchcrow sweep the rest of my team. Im doing a mono fairy mystery gift run and this fight is really testing me.

it looks like a decent squad this is my first mono fairy run and I enjoy the challenge of doing mystery gift random teams

Mvp of the E4 was probably ditto not going to lie, the "no you" strategy wrecked agatha by stealing marshadows stats off of corvinights bulk up spams. Had the same team basically the whole run except adding spectrier late to replace frosmoth because the flame weakness was killing me against blaine. Playing with EVs turned on really helped I feel like, yeah its more grindy but being able to specialize each mon really helped. Really suprised how well this team did during the e4 only really had trouble with Loreleis rain team. Swept bruno on first try and lances team, and champ only took a couple resets.

I'm playing with EVs turned on and so far this team has beaten most gyms in a couple tries. Spectrier was a late addition to replace Frosmoth because I was tired of being smoked by blaines ace trainers. I just worry I'm lacking a SpDef tank
