They've been pretty common since I started playing this game again, and just now I played against five Dark Void spammers in a row, so despite not liking the idea of changing my team up because of one Pokemon, I have no choice at this point. Online is simply overcentralized around Darkrai, way worse than I've ever seen before, likely due to hacks being more prevalent nowadays. Detrimental this all is as it's hard to have good solid battles, instead the scrubs would rather auto-win with no effort. Well I'm not gonna cry about it, instead I'll just have to adapt!
The instant idea that popped into my head is Choice Scarf Infernape. Been meaning to try it out regardless, and it should be a good Darkrai out with Close Combat to OHKO. If they actually decided not to send out Darkrai as one of their first two Pokemon, I can U-Turn to save him for when they do bring him out if necessary. Also I'm gonna try switching out Togekiss' Leftovers with a Lum Berry so he can take a Dark Void then paralyze em while his teamate uses Protect to avoid it aswell. Been wanting to have Rotom W hold the leftovers anyway that way the combo with Pachirisu is even stronger with them both able to heal themselves (though Discharge less powerful without Zap Plate, but eh!).
So that's what I'm gonna do to start. If yal have any other ideas please let me know!
