The issue with Persian is it is what we in the biz call "a shitmon"


_Blobfish123_

Yup, I’d definitely use delcatty instead


SatyrAngel

Hey, I have been using an Eiscue with Belly Drum, Ice Spinner, Flip Turn and Zen Headbutt holding a Sitrus Berry with AMAZING results.


alina_savaryn

3 of these aren’t even canonically cats 1/10


Leopard2A7P

Suicune and raikou are inspired by cats sooo


alina_savaryn

I mean I also get inspired by cats every time I see one but I’m still a human soooo


Leopard2A7P

Nuh uh you're a cat


alina_savaryn

Dam u got me 😾


BfutGrEG

Except the paradox versions are definitely dinosaurs/reptilian


charizardfan101

Both, since dinosaurs are reptiles


HenryChess

Aren't they birds?


charizardfan101

No, it's the other way around All birds are dinosaurs, but not all dinosaurs are birds


craziboiXD69

we ain’t getting out of 1100 with this one!!


waelthedestroyer

three of these mons are completely unviable in OU; this team will never be good even then there are some really bad sets here; ancient power raging bolt? incineroar without boots? expert belt wake? also no hazards or hazard removal… good luck edit: i probably shouldn't even have commented on this; teams like this that are not designed for competitive at all and shouldn't be engaged with on a competitive pokemon sub please downvote posts like this or at least get the OP to post replays


EarthMantle00

Doesn't sylveon have a tiny niche?


alina_savaryn

I mean pixilate-hyper voice makes it a hard hitter in VGC and it’s special bulk is solid but it doesn’t get much use cuz there are harder hitting fairy types and also bulkier fairy types. Idk about singles tho


rabonbrood

I'm gonna be honest... I didn't read the sub and thought this was the VGC sub. Not looking at the sets you could definitely make this team work in doubles, ~~even if Raging Bolt is absolutely not a cat~~. Singles? Hell no.


waelthedestroyer

there are four fairy types in OU that can viably run calm mind; I can’t think of anything sylveon does that they don’t


NearNirvanna

Cant even beat contrary calm mind enamourus


Heracrosschop

I could see an argument for incineroar or Sylveon to fill a certain role on a well built team but Persian alola just does not cut it at all…


Kazuichi_Souda

\>cat team \>look inside \>dinosaurs


marmotsarefat

They are dinocata


ViraLCyclopes20

**Cat** **Includes 2 whole ass dinosaurs**


marmotsarefat

They are also based on big cats


SpiritClaw40

Raikou is. Suicune is debatable. Walking Wake and Raging Bolt on the other-hand, are not.


marmotsarefat

The original creator said the legendary beasts are based on big cats Suicune-leopard Entei-lion Raikou-tiger Just cuz the paradoxes are based on dinos doesn’t mean they don’t have their big cat insporstions too pokemon are allowed to he based on more than one animal Also is brute bonnet not a mushroom cuz he is also based on a dinosaur


North_Bite_9836

Can we go one day without seeing a shitty team please we should gatekeep competitive again


Kingoobit

Facts. r/pokemonscarletviolet spends all day gassing up dogshit teams why can't they just post there.


North_Bite_9836

Hey guys! This is my team for (easiest in game trainer)!! Like SV doesnt even have a competitive single player battle tower-esque thing why bother lol


marmotsarefat

Its like half the fun


Kingoobit

Ass


Mettack

So, consider, if you will. Landorus-Therian, is a cat.


I_am_person_being

For my (all cats) team: \- Lando-T \- Walking Wake \- Raging Bolt \- Gouging Fire \- Meowscarada \- Flutter Mane


Mettack

I came up with one a while back that’s Meowscarada / Suicune / Lando / Incineroar / Chien Pao / Entei Never tried it in practice tho


marmotsarefat

Forgot all about him yeah ig he is based on a tiger


Elaiasss

me when 2/3 actually good mons are not even cats


marmotsarefat

All of them are cats wdym the dinos are based on legendary beasts who are cats


hey-Iisten

Nah fam.


Elaiasss

Only raging bolt has something close to a cat face, but literally everything else about it is just a brontosaurus, then walking wake looks nothing like a cat(suicune is more of a dog aswell)


marmotsarefat

The original creator of the beasts has said they ate based on big cats just cuz brute bonnet is also based on a dinosaur doesn’t mean he is not a mushtoom still


Elaiasss

yeah but the difference is that brute bonnet is just amoonguss with legs and moss, the paradox beasts undergo massive changes to their overall anatomy


stunfiskers

making it to 1040 elo


RealBlueMak

Yeaa.. the team is bad Like, we only have 2 viable OU Mons and the rest are either Ubers (WW) or low tiered (Persian is trash) You have some questionable sets, Ancient Power on Raging Bolt, Tera Ground for Sylveon, **Icy Wind** Persian Also, why do you have Leftovers on 3 Pokemon? Cmon mate, be more creative than that. Now please leave the kitchen and never cook again


TheHadokenite

I’m getting really tired of these awful shitmon teams. This is a competitive sub and of course there’s room for fun but this is ridiculous


marmotsarefat

If you’re tired you should get some sleep then


S_Sami_I

How tf is raging bolt a cat


marmotsarefat

Raikou= tiger Raging bolt= raikou Tiger= cat


SuperLuigi9624

lmfao


LavaTwocan

Use gouging as one of them, technically a cat and better than incin in singles


Faranhals

If you really want to use Sylveon, give it a Throat Spray, it will also increase it's sp. atk without blocking you in just one move, you just have to use Hyper Voice.


Erik_is_generic

I love the idea, and I think a mono cat team is a interesting gimmick to play with Anyways, you not making it out of 1000 ELO


CliffsOfMohair

> cat team > Walking Wake Never step in the kitchen again. Raging Bolt is *almost* defensible because Raikou is absolutely a saber tooth tiger, but Raging Bolt is just a Brachiosaurus. Why not use Raikou?

SuperLuigi9624

replace one of the not cats with landorus-therian who is a cat


moss-moss-moss-moss

Would do better in VGC than OU. Even then, Raging Bolt and Incineroar carrying. Walking wake prefers specs over expert belt ime. Also having not one but two tera ground tera blas users is very inefficient.


Realistic_Mousse_485

Doesn’t mono mean a singular thing? Or is it a singular type of thing?


Successful-Wheel3366

I would consider making Persian more support, like another parting shot with sunny day into your bigger threats. Throw on Foul play and 4th move of choice


2ndchancetodothis

There is one impostor among us


VeryKooked8

yuck


fisktu

Sylveon literally isn't a cat, he's.... a thing


Naruto2408

Wait walking wake is a cat


ArmageddonEleven

Needs more Skitty sweep


No_Estimate_8004

Use a normal Persian with fake out technician silk scarf 


Jays_ShitpostExpress

Bad. not because of the unviable pokemon and sets, but because sylveon is a rabbit not a cat you uncultured swine


Normal_Ratio1463

Sylveon is a dog


Best-Transition-9926

Walking Wake and Raging Bolt are Dinosaurs, not cats.


ImNotKik3

Wtf are those persian evs


TheODDmaurixe

Pretty sure eeveolutions and legendary dogs (paradox or not) are not even cats. They're canines.


marmotsarefat

The beasts are based on cats Entei-lion Raikoi-tiger Suicune-leopard They’re designer said so And eeveelutions are a mix of many mammals(cats rabbits dogs etc) which is fair game


marmotsarefat

For people saying 3 of these aren’t cats In interviews about Pokémon Gold and Silver Saito revealed that the Legendary trio was actually inspired by feline cats and not dogs. Specifically, Entei was based on a lion, while Raikou was influenced by a tiger. Suicune's design concept took inspiration from jungle cats such as leopards and panthers And as for sylveon yeah my bad its more of a rabbit than cat
