Hello! I’m Maggo on discord and xragdolliox on Showdown! I have a question, I’m confused on how to join Little Cup? Is it like getting involved in LC or is there another way? Another question, Is LC a Tier available for the upcoming events? (Smogon Premiere league XIII.)
I’m more than happy to talk about my questions. Thank you!
Alright. Thanks!It’s like getting involved in LC.
There will be one and it's coming soon. megatyler30 has big plans, so if you want more info contacy him :)Not sure if this is the right place for this. But is there going to be a separate Smogon LC Tier for BDSP? I think it could be an interesting contrast to Gen IV LC because of newer items, hidden abilities and fairy type existing.
SinisteaHey hey guys! Not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I figured it would be most appropriate to ask here. What are the best LC hidden gems? I always end up using the same few commonly used Pokémon on each team and want to try something new.
All of the Pokémon that use trapping abilities in LC have significant weaknesses that make them balanced. Diglett is extremely frail, Trapinch is extremely slow, and Wynaut can be played around with pivoting or status moves. Note that Gothita is banned over Shadow Tag because, in LC, it has shown to be the only consistently banworthy trapper.What makes trapping abilities (Arena Trap & Shadow Tag to be exact) more balanced in LC compared to other tiers?
What is the ruling around the ev spread in little cup?
not particularly lol. rain sweepers are weak and not particularly easy to get in after setting up rain; their weaknesses are compounded when considering that every rain structure is incredibly weak to grookey and/or uses a sweeper walled by the actual number one pokemon by usage in little cup (anorith, mienfoo respectively)On the topic of weather, is manual rain teams viable? Theres alot of potent sweepers that could be used and theres a TON of setters available.
Where do I go to discuss team-building and team suggestions for LC? I'm pretty new to this format so I want to ask more experienced players how to fix some of the flaws on my current team.

In addition, once the tournament gets into the later rounds and begins requiring replays, you'll be able to go to people's win or loss posts to find their replays. For the LC Open, there is no dedicated replay thread like there is for tournaments like SPL!You want to go to https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/
After the game is over, you want to click upload replay button. Then go to replays and enter the Showdown username you played the game with and you should find the replay there. Also before you upload the replay, if you want to keep the replay private because you are testing a team or something, type "/hidereplay" in chat to make the replay private. This means only you, your opponent, or someone with the link to that specific replay can access it. From here you can access the hidden replay by entering your Showdown username into replays and clicking on the private tab.
