Started playing Battle Stadium doubles a couple of days ago (using Sejun Park's team) and I'm already in Ultra Ball tier! Surprised myself.
That said, is anyone having trouble connecting their Switch to the internet now? Getting a DNS name resolution error, but all oher devices are working just fine
Woah that's amazing! Do you mean Battle Stadium online, or the offline game version? If you're in Ultra Ball tier online than wow that's impressive! I've played like 90 battles and only in Rank 8. I'm really happy though. I'm not using a super high tier team.
My team right now is:
Grimmsnarl
Vinnaluxe (both are pretty top tier)
Durant
Gyrados
Hawlucha
and my favorite: GREEDENT
Greedent is fantasic! It is so much fun getting Ws with him. I think it really catches people off guard. But he is a SOLID all around lead.
I have him with: Belly Drum (6-UP ATK) , Facade (Double damage if Status'd), Superpower (to hit the many 'mon with Fighting Super Effective) and Crunch (to hit Ghost types with a Dark move). I use a Sitrus Berry so he restores health at 50% and then Cheek Pouch. So if I Belly Drum on the first move, and he takes no damage, the Hail from Vanieluxe (whom I usually pair him with) will restore his health back to 100% after chip damage (obviously if no one attacks him in turn 1). This would also work well in a Sandstorm.
So after Belly Drum you have max attack and you're almost guaranteed to kill anything in OHKO with just a Normal move (which is effective against everything except Ghost, Rock, and Steel(?)).
With a Normal, Fighting, and Dark moves EVERYTHING is guaranteed to be covered for effective damage. And Greedent is a great Dynamax user too I think. His DMax Normal move gets everyone Speed down, and Max Guard is great for stalling out other DMax users, and Crunch will take down the many Ghost types that are in Doubles right now.
... I think the best part about him is it discourages anyone from using Trick Room. If you Trick Room on Turn 1 after Belly Drum you are giving him first turn with 6-UP ATK and you're going to be in a world of hurt. With Greedent in DMAX form he has even more HP and can tank out like 3-4 turns, it's nuts. I really really like using him!
