    This is a team designed for longer games, so I'd advise against using Life Orb Darkrai. A Choice Specs Darkrai will probably work much better here! Stallbreaking is still a concern though, so you may want to consider a more reliable breaker, and remove Darkrai entirely. As for Glowking, hex is...

    A quick note though, if you're worried about Kingambit, going with Jolly max speed on your own Kingambit will help a lot

    Honestly I don't think Astonish Pult is viable at all, but this is interesting! My main concern is that it doesn't look like you have any real abuser for all the paraspam. No substitute Kyurem, no Sub Darkrai, etc.

    Thank you for the support! This seems quite solid for the most part. My main recommendation would be making Hydrapple a bit faster to outspeed Blissey, this makes stallbreaking a lot easier. You also may want to consider Excadrill, potentially over Great Tusk or Gholdengo. Certainly not a...

    This looks good for the most part! My main concern is that Gholdengo hazard stack is a NIGHTMARE, you also have no immunity to Will-O-Wisp. Cinderace over Darkrai might be a good move.

    Metal Coat Gholdengo fits well on many different teams. I'm a bit confused as to why Umbreon was the first partner here, it seems like you considered type synergy, but otherwise this team is pretty wack. You have Garchomp and Hisuian Samurott to stack hazards, but Weezing as removal, and of...

    The main thing I'd recommend is utilizing priority as a tool against sweepers. Defensively preparing for even MOST of the sweepers in NatDex, even as a balance team, is an impossible task. Offensive pressure, not letting them set up, combined with prioirity, is mostly how these threats are...

    I'd suggest defensive, Hatterene living a hit is often MUCH more important than it dealing more damage.

    Rocky Helmet, AV, Custap, and Eject are all options, test and see which works best!

    This has no power really at all, you're fully counting on Scizor to sweep basically as a wincon, nothing else has a good shot of making progress against even a balance team. I'd suggest perhaps using some sample teams for a bit, until you have a better idea of the metagame.

    I'd recommend fully committing to the sun-- having two pokemon that don't take advantage of Sun at all isn't ideal. Special Attack boosting Wake, especially if you go Modest, should be sufficient for stallbreaking. Great Tusk and Hatterene may work well over Corviknight and Gliscor.
