before slamming back down to #74 fuck
also smogonites, this was originally posted here, and i'm posting it here because it's my favorite team to play with, (especially on wifi because i seem to get more swag hax on the actual cart) and i'd like to see what a different community thinks of it. i've made a few minor changes to it, but for the time being i'll just post the original team.

Basically, this team aims to support the two genies so they can sweep easier. Conkeldurr is a bulky Wide Guard variant, and while I do like the anti-sleep aspect of Flame/Toxic orbs, the opponent just stalls with protect until I'm in KO range, and I want to bait Rock Slides whenever I can, and not waste a turn of Wide Guard doing nothing while I'm met with a double protect. Stoutland+shroom is also a great lead combo, as Stoutland's Intimidate softens Acrobatics and suchlike, and shroom can direct Fighting moves aimed at Stoutland. But what really makes it one of my favorite leads is that Tornadus either sets up a Substitute or goes for Acrobatics, which Amoonguss Protects on and Stoutland 2HKO's (sub brings it into ohko range iirc lol) the offending genie. When I think my opponent is going to use Terrakotta, I lead with Thundurus and Conkeldurr. Usually, Whimsicott Tailwinds while Terrakion Protects, so I Hammer Arm Whimsicott and Protect with Thundurus just in case. Next turn, Wide Guard and Thunderbolt the replacement or switch. Swagger is an awesome move to use when things look grim, as it pretty much changes my chances of winning from 0% to 50%, not to mention being able to screw over Trick Room abusers, especially special ones like Reuniclus.
I've been in a little slump, though, and I'm thinking of replacing Hydeigon with something, but I don't exactly know what. I'd love some help on this, so here's stuff I have trouble with:
Scarfed Vanilluxe: Even a Helping Hand boosted Mach Punch can't OHKO. Usually I have to Swagger/Return to get some prior damage, but this isn't always reliable.
Overheat Chandelure: I Protect with Amoonguss first turn even if I have Conkeldurr out, since shroom's not surviving that. Knowing about it doesn't give me much comfort, though, and it's usually fancy footwork KOing it if I didn't bring Hydra.
Rock Slide: If they have a strong Rock Slider out and my checks are dead, I have to hope Swagger takes hold.
Other Swagger Thundurus: The server crashes due to overload of swag.
yeah tear it apart guys go go go
also the team in action in a recent skarmbliss tourney (though the battle was kinda haxxy lol)
