Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Very well said! Yes, trick room is quite hard to play against, I haven't thought of reuniclus but I can imagine that it puts in a shit ton of work versus trick room teams. Also scarf obstagoon catches many opponents by surprise, I will definitely give it a try. So far I never tried slowbro-galar...
Since I put 248 in HP and 32 in Speed, I got 228 EVs left. So for a balanced bulk, I split them and put half in defense and the other half in special defense. If you set 114 EVs in each defense, you get 244 defense and 244 special defense (since both their base is 90). If you even set 112 EVs in...
Its just preference, try various mons and stick to one of them that you feel puts in the most work
Sadly, no. Polteageist has a hard time breaking dark types like mandibuzz or tyranitar and you need to get these out of the way to open the game up for a mew sweep. I like polteageist a lot, but...
Personally I like max hp and max defense, with quiver dance/roost/flamethrower and psychic/bug buzz
But of course you can also run max hp max speed, or max speed max spA
I tried safeguard also, but didnt really like it that much tbh
So basically you took this team from rank 2 on the ladder (https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/specs-regieleki-ho-peak-2036-2-ss-ou.3691970/) and changed dragonite for rillaboom
Yes, I indeed faced some sticky web teams and with mental herb shuckle always gets webs up. In this scenario you actually only got 3 win conditions:
First being Hawlucha, since it generally outspeeds the entire team of your opponent and with sticky webs your opponent most likely also runs hyper...
Hey mate, glad you're enjoying the team.
For fini, you can actually pressure it quite heavy with weavile. Set up a sword dance while the opponent switches fini in and then poison jab it
+2 252+ Atk Life Orb Weavile Poison Jab vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Tapu Fini: 309-364 (89.8 - 105.8%) -- 37.5%...
Because with this set, you get a +1 speed boost from its ability beast boost after a kill. I often found myself in a situation where i sword danced, then got a kill and got instantly revenge killed from a scarfer or dragapult or any faster mon. This set is also better versus rain, because with...
You can just go to showdown and type "/analysis [name of the mon]", for example "/analysis dragapult" and then you get a great overview on how to play this mon, which set to use and how to spread the EVs

Enjoy
If you set your EVs to an uneven HP number, you can switch in one more time on stealth rocks than if your HP would be an even number.
For example, volcarona with even HP can switch 2 times in on rocks and dies the second time, while with an uneven number it can switch 2 times in and survive with...
On weavile, I most likely set up reflect, then taunt and sack the mon thats the most useless for this game. Then go hawlucha and close combat or, what i do pretty often, predict their switch and sd up.
Corviknight is almost never a problem, kyurem beats it with substitute and roost, mew beats...
