Hey there!
Here is a Pokémon Showdown test for Contrary Swallow Palossand in VGC 2022. I was inspired to try making the very obscure Swallow move somewhat useful in a competitive VGC 2022 match after @WeedleTwineedle joked that they would make Swallow competitive somehow. The only path I saw for it was using Swallow after getting all three Stockpile boosts and Skill Swapping Contrary from a partner (in this case, a Shuckle). Shuckle also helps because if it survives, it can use Guard Split on Palossand to buff the sandcastle's defenses even further. Once everything is set up, recovery comes in the form of lowering defensive stats a little bit by using Stockpile then using Swallow again to get back to +6 Def and +6 SpDef. Then just spam your offensive move of choice (Shadow Ball in this case) and hope you don't get crit (Guard Split offsets this somewhat). Anyway, this strategy made my opponent forfeit in this match, so enjoy the video.
I hope that you can be inspired to get into competitive Pokémon, too, like so many other content creators have done (and are still trying to do) before me. I'm a vet when it comes to Showdown but a complete rookie when it comes to cartridge play in Sword. I do have some competitive experience in my Sun and Ultra Sun cartridges, but that's where my competitive journey in official hardware started, while I started way back in Gen IV with Shoddy Battle for battle simulators. I hope these videos will help you improve your team. Or at least get some ideas on how to enjoy these battles, especially if you get to incorporate your favorites.
If you like this type of video, I would very much appreciate it if you share this or my other videos with your friends and colleagues, so that I get motivated to keep making more of these and maybe help more people with their competitive Pokémon journey along the way.
Also, subscribe if you haven't yet! It can help remind you when I get a new video out.
Lastly, if you enjoyed this video, leave a like or comment, especially if I managed to help you out or entertain you in some way.
I'm really not good with video descriptions or titles, so I got a ton of inspiration with both from YuksVGC, who you should subscribe to, by the way. I hope this was okay. Thanks for reading and watching!
