We're currrently in the middle of a major tournament season, so a lot of people likely don't want to share their favorite under the radar sets just in case they want to use them. It's also just a general shift that's occurred in the community lately that there's so much more of a focus on scouting and valuing information that people avoid sharing their teams/techs for the most part so that they can't be used against them in the future.
https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/smogtours-gen7ou-423684Pyukumuku has a niche on stall teams for its ability to disrupt opposing bulky teams with sets like block + spite and block + toxic while also providing the traditional role of unaware mon that checks setup sweepers like Zardx, Volcarona, Mega Scizor, and others.
It's an ok breaker, but it encounters far too many awkward match-ups (Tran and RH Chomp, for example) for it to be considered a consistent option rn.
Toxapex and other Toxic Spike setters are appreciated, I'd say.
Usually people just use offensive. Sometimes, people throw in a bit of HP if they're running a Substitute variant for specific scenarios, but it is not overly common
It generally prefers to run an offensive spread
well i said that it wasn't recommended and super niche
I'm probably completely wrong about this, but the thing has extremely good bulk and while its defensive typing is awful in some cases it's incredibly good in others (i.e. as a spinblocker that shreds all Defoggers in half if it gets a hit off on them). It doesn't have the crazy coverage Lunala has since it can't learn Focus Blast but something like CM+3 Attacks with Lunalium Z or Groundium Z, or CM+RP with either Z-Move or Psyshock over Earth Power/Heat Wave if it runs Lunalium would give virtually every team archetype the hands. It also gets SD and some relatively decent coverage options if it wants to blow past stuff like TTar and what have you although that's a lure set if anything. Note that Menacing Moonraze Maelstrom is a 200-power Z-move that has built-in Mold Breaker properties so your random Unaware mon that probably doesn't have any SpDef investment is gonna get nuked at +1.

This question should be within the respective Showdown subforum and not here, for future reference.
No.
We do not follow everything the DS cart does exactly. There are some changes that also take into effect with the stat crunch, and we have done Level 100 6v6 for years. We do have a spot for Battlespot, VGC, and other tiers to accommodate mildly closer to cartridge. There isn't really a community split because of it (it's rarely if ever brought up).
It's basically a Mega Rocker that can be annoying for Tapu Koko while having some options to deter some switches from coming in freely.
