Hey everyone, today i'm bringing you a fairly standard hyper offense, with a twist.
While running ho teams i often found myself being vulnerable to counter sweeps and the like, so I decided to test running dondozo, the setup wall, which i've found quite successful:D
as of posting, i'm currently at 1514 elo and climbing only using this team
Excadrill
Excadrill @ Focus Sash
Ability: Mold Breaker
Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Rapid Spin
- Earthquake
- Rock Tomb
Excadrill is my lead, mold breaker allows it to rock up on hatterene, if you played sm you know this set, isnt he a lil cutie:D
Deo-s
Deoxys-Speed @ Life Orb
Ability: Pressure
Tera Type: Fighting
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Nasty Plot
- Psyshock
- Focus Blast
- Shadow Ball
my first breaker and potential sweeper against certain teams, deo-s packs a huge punch with nasty plot and great psy-fight-dark coverage, with psyshock for clod and bliss
Calcs:
+2 252 SpA Life Orb Deoxys-Speed Psyshock vs. 4 HP / 252 Def Blissey: 542-640 (83.1 - 98.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
252 SpA Life Orb Deoxys-Speed Psyshock vs. 248 HP / 8 Def Clodsire: 408-484 (88.1 - 104.5%) -- 62.5% chance to OHKO after Stealth Rock
Weavile
Weavile @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Pressure
Tera Type: Ice
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Triple Axel
- Ice Shard
- Knock Off
- Swords Dance
weavile is a great sweeper and s-ball switchin, even ohkoing off-ghold after rocks
252 Atk Weavile Knock Off (97.5 BP) vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Gholdengo: 314-372 (99.6 - 118%) -- guaranteed OHKO after Stealth Rock
overall a great sweeper and breaker, putting immense pressure on the likes of dnite,enamorus,ghold,glisc and great neck
Roaring moon
Roaring Moon @ Booster Energy
Ability: Protosynthesis
Tera Type: Flying
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Knock Off
- Earthquake
- Acrobatics
Hes back!!!!
my favourite stupid mon is back!
literally mega mence but with a free life orb boost, this mon is crazyyyyy as a sweeper, stab knock off is insane in this tier
get moon in on mons like samu-h,band rilla locked into grass, non fairy ghold etc, then go ham!!
Iron boulder
Iron Boulder @ Booster Energy
Ability: Quark Drive
Tera Type: Fighting
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Mighty Cleave
- Close Combat
- Earthquake
This lil guy has been my best and most consistent sweepr, just ahead of moon, sd on any non super effective hit and go wild, ensure glisc is weakened before hand tho, if you rlly want you can use tera ice tera blast/eq, but id not recommend that
Dondozo
Dondozo @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Unaware
Tera Type: Dragon
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Impish Nature
- Liquidation
- Body Press
- Rest
- Sleep Talk
The man of the moment, dondozo is a great mon to wall 80-90% of all the phys attackers in the tier, preventing reverse sweeps from dino-entei, rion boulder,moon,ga,bit etc., this is a great mon to support my cleaners
spdef dozo is also viable for serp,enamoros(with diff tera),darkrai,big neck(tera fairy/steel) etc
The team:D

weaknesses
darkrai,and val are quite annoying, try sus out the val set asap, spdef dozo may be used to help this
enjoy everyone:)
