Introduction
So today i'm going to present you guys the team ive been working on over the past weeks, this team is in my opinion finished, but suggestions are always welcome ! So basically I wanted to make a sand team, so why would I do that, well look at Excadrill it was such an fearsome late game cleaner last gen and the thing is that it doesn't need sand to be up all the time, and keeping sand through the game isn't as hard you guys might think and I will tell you a little more about that now. So the team plan is build out to make up for an Exca sweep, to make this possible I have to remove some checks, for that I have Genesect, Conkeldurr and Mega-Absol. They pretty much removes whatever needs to be removed for example, Skarmory, Rotom, Gliscor and Ferrothorn, but also provides me with priceless priority and momentum. Next up is Hippo and Latias those two are my utility mons providing me with Sand, Rocks, Screens and Heal Wish, this lets me play much more reckless as if I get my screens up which is very easy with Latias I can play more reckless with nearly all my mons, and then in the late game ill just heal up the one I need the most, and finish of the game with the remaining pokes. So this was in rough lines on how the team basically works, and it is the easiest team ive ever used it's so easy to use because you can play so reckless, but anyway lets move on to the details.

Conclusion
I had a lot of fun making this team, testing it out and laddering with it, it's such a fun team to use because it features alot of cool sets and pokemons which works great together, and it's a team which is eas to play with. For anyone that wanna know my record on the team now for the moment it's just a testing alt, and I will ladder alot more with this team, but on the alt i'm using now i'm 36-12, but with latest changes on the team ive only lost one match in the last 15 and that due to a huge hax, but i'm not gonna bitch about that, anyway thanks for reading and bye.
