I wanted to use Spiritomb's OTR Set as it's very strong right now. It sets up trick room for itself, and I'm already thinking of synergizing this ability to set up trick room for others on the team in the future. Spiritomb is a GREAT Spin-Blocker
TM. And hazard stacking will help it tear through teams even easier after setting up. It doesn't ohko much of the tier without them.
-
Dormammu because it looks like dormammu and hates TIME!
Again I went for it's most used set. It synergizes well naturally with spiritomb - resisting the random fairy moves (namely tera blast on random mons) that threaten it, and together they both MESS UPPPP Sneasel-Hisui's. Set is standard rn for a reason.

The Blob because - NO POWER ON EARTH CAN MOVE THE BLOOOB!
Next I wanted a ground immunity and a hazard setter. I've had a real easy time in the past using Orthworm as a spiker. So we slot it in as our ground resist/steel type and spiker.
-
Colossus because steel type, color scheme, defensive stalwart.
One of my FAVORITE mons and one of the best rockers in the tier is Rhydon. We slot it in for rocks, phazing with ROAR to rack up hazards/deal with setup, and deceptively powerful stabs without boosting. Bonus: Trick Room from Spiritomb allows me to forgo any speed creep as the temptation to outspeed zero speed muk is countered by the idea of trick room synergy.

The Thing is one of my favorite characters and is made of rock.
What's a great defensive mon that 4X resists both grass and water moves Rhydon hates??? It's ya boi, Iron Man - I mean Dipplin. Dipplin gives us another way to hit on the special side AND another way to phaze mons with DRAGON TAIL - and it's better at doing it to rack up hazard damage as it has RECOVER. Steel tera because it's the best on the mon imo.

Iron Man because it is a normal cute lil guy then BOOM Tera Steel baby!
Lastly, we add Sneasel-Hisui as a powerful wallbreaker/late game cleaner/speed control as it is also helped GREATLY by hazard stacks. I found that throat chop doesn't hit super hard without an sd AND tera, so I opted for TERA FIRE to prevent burns and additional speed control via TRAILBLAZE. A lot of times you can get off both an SD AND a TrailBlaze.

X-23 because claws and physique!
