Calm Nature

I enjoy using meowstic male mostly becuase its a fave of mine but was kind of getting tried of the light screen set up
so i did this.
Thunder wave to cripple fast mons and mons in general, fake tears so I can switch into zoaroak and get easy kills (This doesn't work they usually switch out)
fake out to stop foes
and protect to scout out what set their mon is.
left over for small recovery

Tera Type: Flying
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD

Hello, this is my first rate on the forums. I hope it is satisfactory! :]

The biggest problem I noticed with the current team is the lack of a playstyle identity as well as having a handful of completely unviable mons. For example Wake only really being good on weather teams and Clodsire being a stall mon.
My main goal is to try and make your team have a unified playstyle. I'll start by going over the old members of the team.

Meowstic @ Light Clay
Ability: Prankster
Tera Type: Dark
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Reflect
- Light Screen
- Thunder Wave
- Substitute


:meowstic: Screens plays into it's Prankster Utility well. Substitute is a better alternative to protect for scouting. It can give you an extra hit if the opponent goes for setup. The strategy is to set up a screen against the enemy, then switch out to try and set up. I don't recommend sacking this immediately. Be careful though as Taunt ruins this, and Dark types are immune to the Prankster Thunder Wave.

Zoroark-Hisui @ Focus Sash
Ability: Illusion
Tera Type: Fighting
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Hyper Voice
- Shadow Ball
- Agility
- Nasty Plot


:zoroark-hisui: A fun addition that can fool enemies with safe switch ins and free setups. NP is better than Agility in most situations. You can switch it to Tera Blast. Sash to allow another chance at setup or revenge kill. I usually make Zoroark disguise itself as Kingambit to bait Fighting attacks.

Blaziken @ Air Balloon
Ability: Speed Boost
Tera Type: Fighting
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Flare Blitz
- Close Combat
- Earthquake


:blaziken: It fits into a Hyper Offense structure well. Thunder Punch and Poison Jab could be run for coverage. Leftovers, HDB, and Life Orb could be run too. Good for breaking down the enemy team early game.

Roaring Moon @ Booster Energy
Ability: Protosynthesis
Tera Type: Flying
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Knock Off
- Acrobatics
- Earthquake


:roaring moon: Most of the team isn't strong enough without a turn or two of setup, so this offers immediate power and can setup. It can set up even more so it can be a good win condition. This is a standard wallbreaker set.

Hatterene @ Leftovers
Ability: Magic Bounce
Tera Type: Water
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 SpD
Bold Nature
- Nuzzle
- Calm Mind
- Draining Kiss
- Stored Power


:hatterene: This team is pretty weak to hazards so acts as hazard control, and it can set up on the enemy. Nuzzle can cripple threats. Max defense to help with longevity.

Kingambit (F) @ Air Balloon
Ability: Supreme Overlord
Tera Type: Fire
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Sucker Punch
- Iron Head
- Low Kick


:kingambit: Kingambit is amazing with priority and a good typing. Low Kick helps against other Kingambit. Other tera types could be run depending on what you need. Air Balloon can give a safe switch. You could potentially switch into a Great Tusk HLR and then double into Zoroark for a safe switch.


This is Hyper Offense team is not viable at a top level, but it has a couple of fun options to use with some of your favorites such as Zoroark and Blaziken. Meowstic is completely outclassed by Deoxys Speed who's overall better. Grimmsnarl could also work in Meowstic's place to fill a similar role. Zoroark and Blaziken could be replaced by Galarian Moltres and Gouging Fire who do very similar setup but are more consistent.
Message me if you have any questions, others can add to this if I made any mistakes.

I would like to give a shout out to Pinkacross and his Screens HO team that I took inspiration from. He is a very good Youtube content creator I highly recommend to new players.
