Before I forget as well, I'll post mine

Expected to be a lot lower, but I'm chill with how this turned out

https://pokepast.es/bab4f2cdb4373bd9 the team I used, utilized Charjabug on this semi-decent webs team. This was the final draft of the team, where I climbed to my final ELO. A couple substitutions were made, i.e changing Garbodor's set eventually because spikes are nuts, and I had a Rapidash over Malamar (Malamar was added recently because Indeedee ran me over with expanding force), and Basculin was special, but since it got Flip Turn, I decided to use it.


However, my most creative set got me from 1000 to 1280

Garbodor
Ability: Aftermath
EVs: 252 HP / 120 Def / 136 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Thief
- Gunk Shot
- Stomping Tantrum
- Toxic

This set was pre-dlc, before Garbodor got Corrosive Gas, but my team struggled with the fatter eviolite mons such as Clefairy and Ferroseed, and Piloswine to an extent. Thief was epic because it shut down these fatter mons by stealing their eviolite, making them weaker versus my team. It also stole heavy-duty boots from Rotom-S and Rotom-F, making them take stealth rock damage. Two interactions that were beneficial were versus opposing Garbodor, where they run either black sludge or rocky helmet, both items Garbodor appreciates. The spread is ideal because it outruns jolly/timid Abomasnow, and can steal its light clay before it can set up Aurora Veil, or get a super effective hit off.

I definitely forgot to snag replays, it didn't even cross my mind.

also Charjabug is a nice check to physical attackers, will eat sand if it rises to NU

Creative Set

Basculin @ Life Orb
Ability: Adaptability
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Liquidation
- Superpower
- Hydro Pump
- Aqua Jet


You make your opponent think you are just physical and then bam, their avalugg is destroyed by hydro!!! Basculin is cool because of adapdability stab, is really fast and can revenge kill with aqua jet, specs is cool as well ;o
 
I went for charjabug webs, but due to a personal loss this past weekend and related events, I didn't get to do a proper ladder run unforch.

I opted for an odd team to try and take advantage of webs.

Charjabug @ Eviolite
Ability: Battery
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Careful Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Sticky Web
- Thunder Wave
- Volt Switch
- Toxic

Running both Toxic and Twave on spdef charja ended up working better than I thought since it is pretty bulk and hard to get rid of quickly through offense, so this allowed it ample time to cripple away the enemy after webs were set.

Looking forward to next week so I can put in some competition at least.
 
I started with charjabug webs but once dlc dropped I switched to some meme pincurchin stuff.
Most of my points were generated by pincurchin teams so I'll post a creative set from one of those teams.
Jolteon @ Life Orb
Ability: Volt Absorb
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Rising Voltage
- Shadow Ball
- Rain Dance
- Weather Ball

I found it hard to breakthrough opponents teams with Rising Voltage since so sanda and pilo were so common, so I opted to run Rain Dance on the switch to scare them out with a weatherball, unfortunately it just led to some prediciton games of the opponent doubling around.

Here's an outdated team I used with special def Pincurchin. That set had a really cool niche of switching into specs Indeedee, which is gone, and its main defensive support Porygon2 is also banned so the team really isn't worthwhile in the least now.

This was a funky weak as pin got a huge buff with the introduction of Rising Voltage, and we saw a lot of teams try to test it out that weren't even BOTS accounts. I tried the other bugs, and all were very bad for the most part. Even Charja could have probably been better replaced by Orbeetle at this point.
