Sun Team - What am I missing?

This is the team I've been running for doubles. Would it be better to replace Sableye for Whimsicott? And what's a better fit instead of Sylveon?

This is currently my Singles team that I managed to climb all the way to Ultra Ball 1 from great ball, one game away, and I'm set to be master ball, then, the Tox came in, I had my fair share of losses with toxapex, and I've also been refining my team to counter opponents like Snorlax, Umbreon and the bunch, but I underestimated the Tox, my thunderbolt did SQUAT on the Tox, then I switched to arch cuz I was thinking to pp stall, then they switched in Dragonite, multiscale to eat my dragon pulse, and then gets a lucky flamethrower burn...

Please guys, I'm tired of this one SPECIFIC Mon, but I don't wanna bring someone that's only good against toxapex and isn't good anywhere else

Can someone help me make a team with my mons?

Besides that, I wanted to make a M mawile HTR/TR team once I have the necessary mons, but until now I could only think of farigiraf, torkoal, M mawile and maybe Staraptor to put on the team, who else should I think of putting in the team and should I keep staraptor? (The mons for the m mawile TR/HTR don’t need to be the ones I currently have)

I do wonder if Primeape be a Strong pokemon...

Primeape @ Eviolite

Ability: Anger Point

Tera Type: Fairy

EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spe

Jolly Nature

- Night Slash

- Drain Punch

- Protect

- Focus Energy

Im thinking of using Throh move: Storm Throw

With Max Health IV and Max SpD IV

Ability: Guts

Item: Toxic Orb

The point is that Guts increases my Throh's power if he has a status effect by using a Toxic Orb. I have 50 percent power. The player sees him as a threat, so they would focus on him more then my Primape.

He would use Storm throw my Primape on Fairy Tera Primape while Primape uses "Focus Energy", he would have activated my Primape's ability Anger Point, making him the 6x max attack plus with Jolly and max Spe IV, I can outspeed most of my enemies.

Now Primape has 2 crit ratios. I could have Night Slash to add a crit ratio to make 100 percent crit, with that, I would hit a 140 power move with 6x attack damage.

I do wonder if it works, because it seems like a good plan to me...

Need help to build a single's team in pokémon champions with Aegislash

Hi! I've been wanting to build a singles team for champions using Aegislash, but I'm not really sure which partners would be good for it, or which Mega to use on the team. I thought about using Pokémon like Primarina or Toxapex, but I really don't know if they fit that well."

Looking for Trick Room ideas

Hi everyone! I need some help.
Right now, my main team on Champions consist of Drampa, Oranguru, Incineroar, Sylveon, Sinistcha and Torkoal. It’s an incredibly solid team, that got me Master Rank in just two days ( and I only play in the evening after work ).
I absolutely love Trick Room, so I want to build a brand new team just to change things a bit. 100% want to keep Oranguru cause it’s one of my fav mon and I feel it’s super underrated. The problem is I’m not sure where to start to build something that is both good and unique with him.
Any ideas for a new TR team?

Just got Focused Blasted 5 times in a row, not one missed. I hate competitive hahaha

Pretty much the title, but if even ONE of these focus blasts missed, I'd have likely won. Instead of course my opponent was slanging 100% accurate focus blasts off base form Raichu like no lie 5+ times IN A ROW. I have missed with 95% accurate moves consecutively numerous times, and here this Arceus blessed scoundrel was getting their blasts guided by the hand of Pokégod himself. Sometimes the game 1000% does not want you to win.

Quick guard or upper hand?

I have a Sneasler with coaching paired with mega Metagross. But, I’m thinking of testing out either quick guard or upper hand to help with fake out from opposing Sneasler and Incineroar, as well as sucker punch from Kingambit. I know that quick guard also works well against prankster Pokemon that target my side of the field with status moves (e.g. grimmsnarl parting shot), but upper hand also would deal 2x to incin and 4x to Kingambit. So which is better overall?
