Am I on the right track here? The idea is hard trick room snow with Mega Abomasnow as the Mega. Farigiraf is the primary trick room setter and Abomasnow is the primary snow setter with Slowking being able to pivot between either one. Abomasnow tends to attack from the special side while conkeldurr goes from the physical side. Maushold is for redirection, damage mitigation, and encore support, with super fang being used to chunk down particularly bulky pokemon like archaludon or iron defense body press users like mega Aggron

Despite it not being meant to be a game breaking team I've only lost 2 battles so far

So i tried a TR psi-spam team (it failed horribly) however, this trio were the best of the team, so i kindly ask for another mons that could work in this Hybrid TR team

Hey everyone I'm trying to make a solid Rain team and this was the build I came up with, it's pretty standard I think, with the fun flair being swift swim Beartic as another fast physical attacker. In addition to ice STABs being really good to have, his access to moves like close combat, Rockslide, earthquake, and high horsepower give him some really great coverage moves that appreciate his doubled speed in the rain, without having the rock or ground types that make him susceptible to those types common weaknesses. Run chople berry on him as Sneasler is a very real threat that could outspeed him in rain after unburden without me having tailwind up and running. He still has to worry about Rockslides from Garchomp or Ttar or Aerodactyl, but the doubled speed and his own Ice and ground/fighting moves help take them out first Edit: I am definitely swapping Beartic to adamant Nature and giving it choice scarf. Absolutely outspeeds EVERYTHING outside of a TW boosted Scarfchomp

Alright, so I'm headed to a big event in a few weeks, and this is not my final team, but it IS the archetype I'm using.

Basically, I'm trying to do a VGC attrition/trap team. I'm looking for some advice. Ill start with the logic for these picks.

Wyrdeer - TR setter + intimidate, helping hand for mega abomasnow blizzard offensive pressure.

Gargancl- Salt Cure + Recover

(Mega) Abomasnow - this is my safe mega. Sets snow, free def boost, aurora veil screens, leech seed and 100% accurate blizzards. This cancels out opposing weather so it's helpful.

(Mega) Victreebel - This Mega fits "me" better, and Im in love with it aesthetically/conceptually. But it's...weird to use? Im learning.

Milotic - Im looking for a male to be a hard cute charm counter for Mega khangaskan, which are 100% female. Im unsure on it's move pool. Haze is niche, but game saving when needed. Whirlpool to keep with my archetype. Trap+dot. I WANT my opponent to be punished for attacking me.

Glimorra - I haven't used it in a while, but when the opponent doesn't have steel, I will drop it in for mortal spin poison abuse. Venoshock picks up a lot of surprise KOs.

This team is slow, my games are slow, but ive had a decent win rate with it. Its not standard or meta, and I'm looking to enhance this. Im not 100% opposed to swapping milotic for toxapex. Regenerator, whirlpool, (infestation?), and baneful bunker. Im wary about redundant poison though.

UU - gen9

Also note i will not be getting rid of azumarill or adding incinroar (Format is anything goes)

This was my doubles team that took me to around rank 100k last season. Orthworm was cool with Garchomp but ultimately he saw the lowest pick rate.

I’d like to replace him with something with good type synergy w/the rest of the team. Ideally something that’s a special attacker also, as Chandelure is my only one at the moment.

Not opposed to megas or basically anything except I can’t get Floette.

What should I replace him with this season?

Hello! I had a mimikyu with speed investment/attack. Shadow sneak and play rough on there. Never brought it. So now have a Milotic in that slot for speed control and to scare off potential incineroars that could mess with my sand core. I never really bring it though.

This team did get me to masterball. But I'm wondering is there any better options instead of Milotic that would bring big benefits?

I often lead with either Aero/Ttar, Ttar/excadrill, Aero/hydreigon or Aero/rotom depending on the situation.

The idea really is to be faster than the opponent, set up a tailwind and try to delete as many things as possible before tailwind runs out. I keep aero out often for wide guard support/rock slide flinches. Dual wingbeat also good at doing some damage against sneaslers and sinistchas.

Let me know! I'm open to suggestions!
