Thanks for the reply Regis Neo, but it was a bit too late, the tournament I went to has already finished (I lost first round :frown
. And it wasn't VGC, as Australia doesn't have VGC, just a competition with prizes. The match was surprisingly quite close, I managed to defeat my opponent's Braviary, Cobalion and Volcarona, but my last Pokémon was OHKOed by a Stone Edge from a Gigalith left at half HP (who could've been KOed with another Psychic). I ended up using the following items:
Hydreigon - Expert Belt
Seismitoad - Scope Lens
Sigilyph - Razor Claw
Zebstrika - Zap Plate
I know there are better item choices but I was quite limited due to not having commonly used items such as Focus Sash (for Zebstrika) and Life Orb (for Sigilyph).
I agree my team was quite weak, but I did only have a few days to prepare it, so I guess I did quite well. Sigilyph and Zebstrika are pretty fragile and both were OHKOed (Zebstrika by a Fiery Dance from a Volcarona after a Quiver Dance).
Although the competition is over, I would still like to know some good strategies/ combos I can use (other than Trick Room teams and Whimsicott + Terrakion).
And yes, Regis Neo, you're right, the Terrakion + Whimsicott combo is old and wasn't used much in the competition, but I was expecting it due to seeing it a lot in the last competition (a few months ago).
So, I'm still beginner at competitive battling and I would really like some help.
Thanks,
