Your right, the lag & frame drop issue was fixed for a small window towards the end last season. Then it got bad again, even streamers on twitch recently, like Doonebug and AXN, were getting screwed over via these issues
It's almost like they fixed it just for worlds then removed the fix. Clearly it's an issue they know how to resolve but don't care enough and only implement it when it's going to affect their PR.
@@hazewilliams2117 But again, as an android user it magically disappeared in the few weeks before and couple of weeks after worlds, now it's back as soon as the new season has started
The lag isn’t just you. 😅 it’s really bad right now. Like borderline unplayable. I have an apple and it only started getting this bad this past week. I have at least one game a day fully freeze up or crash the app and have multiple battles lag so bad that it doesn’t count my fast moves or won’t let me use my charged move
I have Florges as my opener w/ Lickilicky and shadow Swampert in the back. I think I'm about 11-3 so far. It has been fun. It's my first time in the Ultra League. I just started playing last year.
Yep. Gamestate is the worst its been. Ive actually lost count of how many times a frame drop has cost me a game by either causing an overtap, missing bubbles or the catch
Curious of your thoughts on Florges. Recommended move set is all fairy moves but it does have access to Psychic and Petal Blizzard for potential coverage of poisons and mud boys. Assuming the STAB is the reasoning for the all fairy attacks but I’m seeing a lot of Tentacruel and wouldn’t hate having Psychic in the bag
Lag was so bad last night that i started a battle and was immediately hit with a charge move without even being able to get a fast move off. Load screen and boom immediate option to shield or not lol
I faced a lickilicky earlier which ran hyper beam and shadow ball. I was absolutely miffed how quickly it got the hyper beam with the new rollout I thought it was a safe no shield with a dark/poison but nope 😭
Clef has been destroying me with baits in the ultra league. Typically I'm pretty good at calling baits but, when moonblast doesn't take too long to get to and it being such a nuke, you have to respect it more. Then they end up going for 2 swifts and a moonblast, or 1 swift then moonblast, and vice versa. It's also somewhat tanky and counters a lot of the meta.
so, what I'm getting from this is that in order for Clef to work, you need to be a master baiter... also I hate that I need a lot of XL to play Ultra League :(
Enjoyed the video. I ran shadow dusknoir last night with Galarian weezing safe switch and registeel closer and had some great sets. Definitely try out dusknoir it is a beast. I had some madman run a shadow tyranitar in ultra and a shadow ball still did half health for the win against it to clutch the game and astonish hits so hard
I can assure you that it is not just an android problem. I have an iPhone 15 pro max and I get major frame drops connected to WiFi or on cell service. Do android phones get really hot when playing PoGo as well?
Its frustrating because im doing so good this little league cup but the lag has cost me literally so many games with not just lag but lagging out of the matches that this could of been my best run in any league >.< But a handfull of games ive noticed players leaving my game so imo niantic needs to fix this because its unbearable
I get some frame drops, but nowhere as bad as you. I think you said you have a Pixel? I use a Samsung. I used to have a pixel and it was definitely worse on it.
This could be the cynic in me, and please correct me if I’m wrong, but of course the lag and spinning ball issue was fixed for worlds. It’s that time where they have to pretend that they give a fuck about the PvP side because worlds makes them money, and then as soon as it’s over it’ll go right back to how it was before. On that note I still love PvP and keep playing but my brain tells me they don’t care, at least to an extent.
I think they should give Wigglytuff fairy wind tbh. I love Wiggles but hate charmers lol. It gets to 2178cp level 50 15/15/15 in UL. I think even though it's not quite 2500cp it's bulky enough to hold it's own. The normal type ghost resistance is pretty awesome imo and i'd build one for UL if it wasn't a charmer lmao
What do we think about EQ on lIcki instead of BS for extra steel coverage? SB isn't gonna dent most steels without stab or super effective, and BS is just borderline bad now anyway besides resisted by steels
stab body slam (lickylicky) does 60 damage, non-stab swift (clefable) does 55, and non-stab body slam (gastrodon) does 50. so yeah, it's not that great without stab. honestly, i'm still running meteor mash on clefable.

@squozenfrozen1645 it's an android issue unfortunately

I've stopped playing for now because of the lag and the cups this week. I played all sets last season, not anymore with bad cups and horrendous lag.

Muds?
@@Bluebloods7 haven’t saw as many as you’d think. Even then often times dusknoir and registeel can combo them. I’ve yet to see an ultra gastrodon

Good work!
Is there a reason to not use Meteor Mash on Clef? Its got much better DPE and provide good coverage and mirror match.
I have no idea why swift is preferred on pvpoke. I went back to meteor mash lol
Clefable w psychic instead of swift 🤣 caught a lot of fire mons off guard not to mention g weezing and octopus 🤣
Any alternative for lickilicky?
You think Clefable would be better if they buffed swift again next season? By like 10 or so damage
I think they should give Wigglytuff fairy wind tbh. I love Wiggles but hate charmers lol. It gets to 2178cp level 50 15/15/15 in UL.

So why not recommend meteor mash?
stab body slam (lickylicky) does 60 damage, non-stab swift (clefable) does 55, and non-stab body slam (gastrodon) does 50. so yeah, it's not that great without stab. honestly, i'm still running meteor mash on clefable.
Its about bait charge move
You can win with swift when opponent has low hp left, with meteor mash you cant
The lag was so bad last night... I had 3 battles in a row just totally time out on me
If swift is so bad, is there consideration to keep meteor mash?
yeah for fairys.
Or psychic because this team is super ABA to Venusaur
I've started playing again after a 6+ month break. The freeze ups are making it unplayable for me. Game is so dead.
Idk about licky, just feels so underwhelming..even in the great league
i am mudd boi
Fairy wind energy generation is ridiculous now. I swear it gets to the moonblast in like 6 or something?
lol I don’t even know why I try to climb cuz then league rotations like this weeks come out and I can’t do anything 🥲
