Forums · I just downloaded shoddy...
I'm in your shoes, except for the part where I get my ass kicked, because I haven't fought anyone yet (lol), but I just got shoddy up and running. I'm not battling anyone until I learn whether or not stat decreases are Baton Passed along with stat boosts, as that's kind of important to my team.
Anyway, the competitive pokemon thing: apparently, walls have no place in the BT, but they're all over the metagame.

BP passes all positive and negative stat changes
and yes, i've found the importance of walls, too (though I tend to run tanks in the BT along with my sweepers), and in fact, I just read a thread on that very topic on smogon....
I want to just use what I like, because in my random encounters I ran into a few very similar teams. I swear I fought a garchomp EVERY damn battle; but whatever, I'm no shark h8er
. Good luck, you're going to need itPS, I found that despite the fact I've never battled competitively before a few hours ago, I found that my prediction skills were much better than they would've been if I hadn't joined up here (b^.^)b
I know I'll get better at predicting and team building as I go on *stays the course*
Same thing happened when I first started on shoddy. I used it when it was first implemented and it was super glitchy back then. I lost my first 8 or ten matches, but after about 30 matches I started getting some wins. Nowadays I win most of my matches.

Silver Millennium, Why are you bumping Week Old topics?
This is exactly my story.
I got Shoddy, lost to everyone.
It just takes practice and quite a few matches.
At first I was playing with my first team, and in the end I modified it a bunch.
After each match I changed it around to fit my needs.
Then I started winning and I looked at my team, it was completely different.
All those matches helped me shape a team that worked for me.
