Congratulations faded love for winning this week with your Sylbveon submission. The original Pokemon was Kyurem so thank you Scizorphobic for submitting that squad. I will be submitting the team for this week.
Here is the team being featured for Week 24:
"I built this HO team around Mimikyu. Azelf is a standard suicide lead with T-Wave to punish stuff like Mega Aero for my sweepers / breakers to deal with it more efficiently. Mega Sharpedo gives a cleaner that appreciates all these breakers weakening its checks. Latias gives a secondary Fighting resist and a Ground immunity. Life Orb variant with HP Fire to better handle Scizor and other Steel-types. Finally Scizor gives me the needed pivot into stuff like opposing Latias while being the usual sweeper once my breakers have done thier job. Good luck figuring out the last!"
Get your submissions in by Thursday guys ^_^

Bisharp allows the team a way to punish defoggers. It also provides another set up sweeper, and some extra measure vs stall via punishing it for fogging and the potential to break through quag with knock into z-move.

Celebi @ Grassium Z
Ability: Natural Cure

Timid Nature
- Nasty Plot
- Psychic
- Leaf Storm
- Recover
Celebi is a good z move user and this specific set helps beat stall. Leaf storm z grassium helps beat Blissey and stall, and this build can struggle vs it. Celebi can be the offensive setup on this without LO.

Roserade @ Poisonium Z
Ability: Technician
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 1 Atk
- Spikes
- Leaf Storm
- Sludge Bomb
- Hidden Power [Fire]
The team could be somewhat annoyed by a well played bulky Prim in it's current state. Spikes or a grass would fix this issue. Of course, Roserade provides both. Roserade also provides a decent wallbreaker with a lot of immediate power. Spikes can be set to break through many bulky builds just using the pokemon already on the team and many of this team's members can clean opposing builds quite easily with many layers of spikes laid down, and Roserade keeps them up with decent efficiency.
