I finally got an awesome winning streak out of this team! I have been using the team since September of last year. Originally, I used the Dream World Drought Ninetales with Darmanitan, and they kept hitting a 100 streak; but when I bred a heat wave Ninetales and exchanged stupid Darmanitan for my signature fire starter that I used during Generation 4, things went well. The result? A Double Battle Sibway record of 234!
The Team:




Ninetales/SYMPHONIA (sex-female)
Nature: Timid, Ability: Drought, Item: Life Orb.
Evs: 6 Hp, 252 Sp. Atk, 252 Speed.
Moveset:
Heat Wave
Solar Beam
Sunny Day
Protect

Typhlosion/ZENMETSURO (sex-male, a translation of his part Latin and part Japanese name, it means annihilating flames)
Nature: Timid, Ability: Blaze, Item: Choice Scarf.
Evs: 6 Hp, 252 Sp. Atk, 252 Speed.
Moveset:
Eruption
Solar Beam
Hidden Power-Ice ( or like how I like to call it-Hice)
Focus Blast (Don't think I even used it during my streak)

Garchomp/Stephanie (sex-female)
Nature: Jolly, Ability: Sand Veil, Item: Expert Belt
Evs: 6 Hp, 252 Atk, 252 Speed.
Moveset:
Dragon Claw
Earthquake
Rock Slide
Protect

Cressilia/MsMaryMoon (sex-female)
Nature: Bold, Ability: Levitate, Item: Flame Orb
Evs: 252 Hp, 100 Defense, 158 Sp. Defense
Moveset:
Psyshock
Psycho Shift
Calm Mind
Moonlight

In quick overview, this is an all out attack sun team that is backed up by the ultimate psychic queen of defense, and the master of earthquake sweeping. Originally I was using Ninetales with flamethrower instead of heat wave, and Darmanitan at lead. like I said earlier, Darmanitan failed and I went with my favorite from last gen-Typhlosion. But even with the fire rat/porcupine pokemon, Eruption was not always enough to OHKO both opposing Pokemon, not to mention the sturdies and sashers. So I bred a Heat Wave Droughtales to back up Typhlosion.

The team members cover each other flawlessly. Though there has been other sun team records on Smogon, I think this one stands at the top; but that is mainly due to Ninetales immediate sun ability and not having to waste a turn for Whimsicott to get it started. Cressilia has always been the impregnable sun supporter; with the new psyshock (which takes care of the Blissey problems), intensified Moonlight recovery in the sun, and Psychoshift move to burn her adversaries such as Tyranitar, and Scizor, Cressilia was nearly unstoppable in this team. And of course the last back up girl-Stephanie-was in place for the fire resistent Dragon, rock types and Flash Fire opponents.

Matches with the team usually ended in just a few minutes. Some irratating hinderences were Tyranitar leads (God forbid when the computer sends out Excadrill with him), Aerodactyl&Archeops with rockslide flinch hax, Flash Fire Chandelure, where the only person who could take the candle on is my Garchomp. I was elated to finally be able to shut down all the hail teams at the subway. But of course, my streak came to an end with Heat Wave missing, a fast ground type and some bulky dragon to take on Cressy 1 on 1. Here is a detailed account of the last recorded match. As soon as I find out how to post my picture proof (since I can't load it from a Smogon picture album like the last time) I will do it.

Battle starts:
I send out Ninetales and Typhlosion, opponent Socialete Saty sends out Landorus and Moltres.
1st turn: I withdraw Typhlosion and switch in Cressilia, and portected with Ninetales. Foe Landorus used Earth power, but my switched in Cressilia avoided the attack. Foe Moltres used Air Slash on my switched in Cressilia, knocking her from 225hp-179hp. The Flame Orb burns my Cressilia

2nd turn: Foe Landorus used Earth power! Ninetales takes it 148hp-2hp. Ninetales used Heat Wave... Landorus avoided the attack! Does 1/3 damage to Moltres' hp. Life Orb drains the remaing hp of my Ninetales away; Symphonia fainted. Foe Moltres used Solar Beam! A CRITICAL HIT to my Cressilia 179hp-68hp. Cressilia used Calm Mind! The burn damage drains Cressilia to 40hp. I send in Typhlosion in the place of Symphonia.

3rd turn: I switch my Cressilia in and replace her with Garchomp. My Typhlosion used his signature move Eruption! It brings Moltres to a good red hp, and Landorus hangs on with Focus Sash. Foe Landorus used Earth Power! Zenmetsuro fainted! Foe Moltres used Flamethrower on Garchomp! 184hp-109hp. I send in Cressilia in the place of Zenmetsuro.

4th turn: Garchomp used Rock Slide! Foe Landorus fainted & Foe Moltres fainted. Cressilia use Moon Light! 40hp-190hp. Burn damage drains Cressilia to 162hp.

5th turn: Socialite Saty sent out Latias & Articuno. Garchomp used Protect! Latias used Dragon Pulse... but Garchomp protected! Articnou used Ice Beam... but Garchomp protected herself. Cressilia used Calm Mind! Burn drains Cressilia 162hp-134.

6th turn: Garchomp used Rock Slide! Articuno somehow takes it on a very low yellow hp and Latias on a very high green. They both flinch! Cressilia used Moon Light! 134hp-225hp. Burn drain 225hp-197hp (I think I now see my error, I should have struck the artic pidgeon with Psyshock instead Moon Light).

7th turn: Garchomp used Protect! Both foes try to strike her again and fail! Cressilia Psyshocks Articuno and it takes it on an unbelievable, unseeable red hp! Burn drain 197hp-169hp.

8th turn: Garchomp used Dragon Claw! The Foe's Latias takes the stabbed power 120, 359 attack exexpert belt Dragon Claw on a low red! And Dragon pulses Garchomp away! (I always knew both Lati's were better than Garchomp, but it was nice to be reminded). Stephanie Fainted! Articuno used Ice Beam on Cressilia 169hp-139hp. Cressilia used Psyshock! The Foe's Articuno Fainted!

9th-35th turn: Just when I thought I had another match won, the Foe's Latias goes first and uses Rest! As the match goes on, the Foe's Latias also has Calm Mind. So the 600 base, female psychic ubers duke it out for over 25 turns, Psycho shift burn, series of Psyshocks, Foe used Rest! Series of Dragon Pulse, Moon Light.

Eventually the opponent prevails due to my continual burn damage and 8 pp Moon Light. Obviously, this was a bold natured Latias; which was a perfect weapon against my team. I'll go as far as to say that the entire team was set up to shut mine down. Sash Landorus (fastest 600 ground uber next to Garchomp). Eruption resistent moltres, Chomp owning Articuno (whom was also defense natured to take that Expert Belt Rock Slide), and a stall based Latias. Like always, for the past seven years since Emerald Battle Frontier has been out, the computer has to form a counter for your team and cheat with criticals and misses to win. Nevertheless, I am proud of this complete sun team. They will return in Pokemon Black 2 & White 2 to score an even higher record streak.
