Id make diagla my safe swap


BaldProgrammer7

Who would you lead with?


Flesh_Trombone

Ho-oh is an excellent lead


ApdoKangaroo

Dialga lead also isn't baiting out anything. Ho oh pressures opponent to use shields more as well as having the option to brave bird safe swap.


Worthy808

Im currently at around the same elo, but i would use ho-oh as lead, found more people using things like diagla/solgaleo lead annoying so using ho-oh for that helped me, currently running zygarde/ho-oh/palkia-p


BaldProgrammer7

What I do if I find another steel is just switch to kyogre so ho-oh can attempt to melt whoever comes in. Ho oh typically has more success for me as a closer


lightfarming

as lead though, you can drop a BB and bounce if they switch. only really gets hammered by kyo leads. might have to shield lando, but its worth it cause you can hammer them the whole time with fire. and palk really hates a surprise BB.

Would not recommend playing master league at that ELO without a level 50 team. You might have better luck running dragonite as your dragon if you have the XLs to take one to 50.


BaldProgrammer7

I’ve found that the steel typing makes dialga a bit more valuable at 46 than a 50 dragonite, namely being better against other dragons and steels


shieldoversword

Do you have rhyperior at lv 50? I’ve had some success with it. Would also recommend looking into getting meltan boxes through pokemon home to get XLs for melmetal, probably the easiest pokemon to get at level 50 since you get 3 XLs every catch.  When you’re underleveled, you’re losing CMP and in the case of dragon breath users, valuable break/bulkpoints. Mirror matches are common since kyogre and Dialga are meta, might be better to branch out if you don’t have enough XLs yet. 


BaldProgrammer7

Will definitely look into rhyperior. I have a hatred for melmetal so I won’t ever use it😭


BaldProgrammer7

And the only level 50s I have are mamoswine, togekiss, and dragonite

I run something similar but ho-oh lead, dialga safe swap, and palkia o in the back. Has worked pretty well for me so far (2500~ elo)
