Description :
- As stated team employs dual tailwind, courtesy shaymin and zapdos to unleash powerful attackers like hoopa-unbound, tapu lele and charizard-y. Shaymin-sky + char-y form an obvious core with both of them nailing each other's checks. Earth Power is opted on skymin so that the starting core isn't a sitting duck against heatran and focus sash allows us to get off an easy tailwind most of the times.
- Next up, zapdos was added to have a more reliable speed control and provides us with a counter to mega-salamence. After this the combination of lele + hoopa was added to ensure I had more than a decent match-up against trick room teams. Life Orb Modest lele is a nightmare to switch in under tailwind. Psychic Seed is preferred on hoopa allowing it to take on special tapus and in general most special mons comfortably. Gunk Shot is preferred over hidden power ice since most hp ice targets are usually sniped by it's STAB attacks.
- And finally since every team should have intimidate support, landorus-t was added as a fast pivot to add some more speed to the team outside of tailwind. But again since team has multiple speed control options, AV lando is an option for it to act as a better pivot.
