Go go gadget OHKO all non-resists-
After making a team, and having some great success with it (Boulder once 5-0'd a team before they conceeded wth), I have decided to post the first team i can say is actually well thought out:
[Semi] Banded HO Spam
[Paradox]
"would you be walled?"
"Nah, I'd OHKO"
Iron Boulder. The Star of the show, and the usual lead. First of all this thing is a Menace, as with booster energy it outspeeds
every mon in the tier (excluding Barraskewda in rain
(please ban him now he can OHKO like 98% of all teams)), and on top of that,
OHKO's every mon that does not resist it (barring Dozo) with a Mighty Cleave Boosted by
,
,
and
Tera Rock,
(for a lot of mons, Tera isn't even necessary), and can 2HKO almost everything else. It is Not Unstoppable, as it really does not want to hit by strong priority users (eg: Scizor, Rillaboom, Kingambit, that damned Rain fish, etc), and struggles against bulky resists such as the Aforementioned Kingambit, Archaludon,
(seeing as if you cant deal 75% health in dmg, it wont be killed by another Cleave, and you either switch or die), etc. Overall, when it hits the field on turn one, the opponent is usually going to lose a mon shortly after. If it's not sent in first and enamorus is down, it usually can't OHKO everything anymore, but can still revenge kill weakened mons
This guy doesn't deserve a funny quote
Kingambit. you know him, you hate(?) him, he's your big bad revenge killer and lategame cleaner.
Thinking about it now, you should probably swap either low kick or iron head for SD. There's not much else, but it is important to know that he carries booster energy, so ensure that at least Iron Boulder and Valiant have been sent out before Kingambit dies. It runs
Tera Dark to increase dmg output.

"You know who else is kingambit?-"
*piano music*
"Imaginary Technique: Thunderclap"
Kingambit
. you know him, you hate(?) him, he's your- hold on, this is
Raging Bolt, not Kingambit, and he's more a of a midgame cleaner, not a lategame one. Raging Bolt, on his first entry, gains a boost equivalent to 3 allies fainted Supreme Overlord, which makes it great for revenge kills and stopping opposing Iron Boulders. It has a similar guessing game to Kingambit's Sucker Punch/Kowtow Cleave, only with Raging bolt, you swap out an oppurtunity to Swords Dance for a pivot. It runs
, which provides a good support to it's teamates (though on futrther consideration, you may want to swap it for
. It runs
Tera Water for better bulk, but you could run something like Tera Flying to counter ground types, though it really shouldny
I kinda just slapped
Iron Valiant on the team just because, It knocks off items, and doesn't do much else. you could probably run SD over taunt. It carries life orb, which gives the rest of the team a much-needed boost.
Cheese String's slot was originally filled by
, but after I figured that people would usually run HDB to counter all hazards, I swapped it for Gholdengo, who serves a much better purpose in blocking trick, seeing as how debilitating some of the items can be. It doesn't really have a set tera type, I just have
Tera Ghost there for some damage.
Shut up [escaping mon]!
Contrary Tera Stellar Enamorus needs no explanation. It comes in, kills things, and dies freeing the rest of the team from being choice-locked.
thats all lol have fun. :P
