[swinubfan44]

Webs electric has to be the coolest concept out of all the submissions imo! Love venomoth but stealth rocks are way too big of an issue plus all bug teams are relatively similar with little deviation

Teambuilding Process

First, we filled the "filler" move slots on our core. Thundurus's last two moves are Superpower and Bulk Up.
+
An easy staple on any electric team. We decided to add Choice Specs Tapu Koko to maximize its ability to spam its STAB moves.
+
Not wanting to lose to a Barraskewda/Swampert in rain, we decided to add Rotom-wash. Rotom-wash is a great slow pivot for electric teams that also acts as another Ground-immunity.
+ /
At this point, we wanted to find new ways to abuse our Sticky Web. Originally, we wanted to add Z-Bounce Zeraora. However, Zeraora fills a similar role as Thundurus. Instead, we decided an offensive Zapdos set would work well. Z-Hurricane Zapdos can spam its stab moves when webs are up, and surprise our opponents with a Z-move.
+
The final mon we added before testing was Golem-A. Magnet Pull allows Golem to trap and kill Steel-types such as Ferrothorn and Excadrill. It can also set up Stealth Rock, putting more pressure on the opponent to click Defog
/
After testing the team, we decided that Dracozolt could potentially be an alternative pick for our last slot. It fills a similar role to Golem-A as a Steel-type killer, but it can also abuse Sticky Web effectively.

Shoutouts to: Noctrine, Rotten, Cjbrake, |Powerman|, Punset, and meganium223 for helping to make this cool team!

Submissions are now open! The following cores from last week will carry over to this week for voting:

Prof.Otaku's Venomoth + Scizor-mega Bug
|Powerman|'s Volcorona+M-Pinsir Bug

Anyone is welcome to post a core

 

[Tico]

Mega Sableye + Shedinja

Sableye @ Sablenite
Ability: Prankster
- Knock Off
- Recover
- Will-O-Wisp

Shedinja @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Wonder Guard
EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Poltergeist
- Will-O-Wisp
- Toxic

This is a pretty simple defensive core for Ghost, Shedinja can wall many attackers thanks to Wonder Guard, helping in the matchup against Electric, Ground, and Water, while Mega Sableye can switch into Toxic, Will-O-Wisp and Leech Seed thanks to Magic Bounce, keeping Shedinja in the game; both can cripple opponents with status and Knock Off aswell. The EVs and moves can be changed, but i think the best moves are in the importable.

[Dorron]

Hazard Stack in a Dark-Mono team o_o

Sets

Greninja @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Protean
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Gunk Shot
- U-turn
- Ice Beam
- Spikes


Tyranitar @ Leftovers
Ability: Sand Stream
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 SpD
Sassy Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Stone Edge
- Thunder Wave
- Fire Blast

This is oriented to be a Dark hazards spam. Greninja is the Speed control of the team that can also use Spikes when forcing a switch. It can also deal with some Fairy-types that could threaten Dark teams thanks to Gunk Shot + Protean and keep momentum with U-turn when predicting a switch to, for example, a SpD Celesteela or Mantine in a Flying matchup or if there are Magic Bounce users in the opposing team instead of using U-turn. Tyranitar is the other hazard user that also is our special sponge thanks to its spread and SpD boost thanks to Sand Stream, which also helps doing chip damage to the opposing team and potentially breaking Focus Sash. It also runs Thunder Wave to cripple opposing sweepers, revenge killers and Choice Scarf users.

(I guess there would be a mandatory partner in this team, I'll let you guess who)
