Just a small core I came up with when I wanted to create a new balanced team. Fits pretty easily on most teams I think. These guys have perfect synergy aside from Fire attacks. And only Fire and Steel type moves are unresisted. Still not a perfect core obviously, Water types with Ice move coverage will blast right through and Emboar can pretty easily smash it if it predicts well (or not choiced). But yeah, this core can be valuable to your team outside of taking hits too, Thunder Wave support and amazing Leech Seed stalling can give a lot of space for your other team members. I've found Samurott to do well with this core as it sets up on Fire types and appreciates T-wave a lot.
