Pokémon Sword & Shield Online Battle 260
0I used: Glastrier, Turtonator, and Mow Rotom
My Opponent used: Chandelure, Eternatus, and Miles (Rillaboom)
Stadium: Turrfield
Battle BGM: Tower of Waters
When I saw that my opponent had Rillaboom, Hatterene, Eternatus, and some other Pokémon, I wasn't sure if it was a team my opponent used in the main story or a competitively trained team, but it turned out to be the first one, because Rillaboom very likely did not have Grassy Surge, and there were some strange move choices from my opponent, because I don't remember if I have ever come across any story teams that have Rillaboom, I did go up against a player with Thwackey and a bunch of unevolved Pokémon, that player even had a Magikarp on that team, which I don't understand why anyone would even bring a Magikarp to an online battle.
I decided to test out Glastrier in that fight again, as I did see most of my opponent's Pokémon are weak to each of Glastrier's moves, Icicle Crash for Rillaboom and Eternatus, I did see that three of my opponent's Pokémon were weak to Ground. Glastrier cannot learn Earthquake, it would be nice if it could learn it so it doesn't have to rely on High Horsepower's 95% accuracy, and High Horsepower is a move you would see being used more frequently in Double Battles for a Ground-type move that can hit a single target, and my opponent did make a good choice leading with Chandelure in the fight.
Turtonator is a Pokémon that I have waited a while to use online, and right now is where he is tested out, the set for Turtonator was very tricky, this one makes use of Iron Defense and Body Press, while Flamethrower and Dragon Pulse are there for STAB. In most of the matches I have done with this team, where I keep going against top tier Pokémon, Turtonator was my go-to Pokémon against Rillaboom, where I can switch him in against Rillaboom's Grassy Glide, but that would always force switches, and put me at a disadvantage.
There are some other notable Turtonator sets, it is not a common Pokémon in online battles, there is the Shell Smash set, which can be tricky to use, as Turtonator's base Speed is very low, one move I considered on Turtonator was Burning Jealousy, but in the end I went with Flamethrower, because I wanted to spare some Armorite Ore because of some random battles I have been doing which has made me use up almost my entire Armorite Ore supply, I wish they made it so that if you deleted a Tutor Move, you could relearn them at a Pokémon Center for free than waste Armorite Ore just to get the same move, because when you delete a move you taught to the Pokémon through TR, you can relearn that move through the Move Relearner without the need to use that TR on that Pokémon again.
