Bit disappointing that we failed the threepeat but it was a fun experience nonetheless. I was the manager this time so I tried very hard to give it my all and ended up with a lot of teams to share:
AAAUbers
I tried to make some balance structures work since last year most of my builds were offense-oriented. I really like the core that I came up with, being able to handle most of the offensive threats while providing good utility like hazard, removal and phasing. Deo-A is just the best breakers on these type of structures and it ended up putting a lot of work in both of the games. A cool set that I want to highlight is unaware Eternatus. I feel like offensive unaware is very underexplored and Eternatus is the best user I was able to think off, being able to handle a lot of cm Arceus stuff and other set up threats.
This team is an edit of another
team I made last year. Webs fells turbo broken to me because most mons dont run boots in a tier with magic bounce. The only changes I made was putting unaware Etern bc I love that guy and changing the Arceus set to a cheesy cm set bc magic bounce is broken.
Wanted to make rain work somehow since Kyogre feels really strong and no one is running primal weather. I ended up with a weird structure for rain which is more like Kyogre + two breakers that are now fast. It was too weak to webs however so i will probably need to change Arceus to Giratina or smth.
Speaking of less-used structures, screens. I feel like screens have to be broken in a Ubers format but somehow I havent seen more people use it. With it, I could get away with stuff like ph Arceus and fc Miraidon, who cant die under screens and have dtail to deal with phasers. I also have Mewtwo which is one of my personal favorite. Lo moldy can breaks a lot of common answer like NDM or Ho-oh. Also the return of red card tdebris Groudon which is less of a breaker and more of a utility mon.
SV AAA
Just some standard structures that tries to overwhelm your opponent on the special side. Mana will guarantee the av removal on their regenvest so that your Deos + Iron Crown/Bloodmoon can go in. The BM version was just something I came up on a whim when I saw the research project but it ended up being quite fun. Although the crown version is probably still better cuz you dont lose to ee ghost + less weak to Zapdos.
Our team has already qualified for play-off by week 3 so I decided to mess around with a HO team with some fun sets. Throat spray Scream Tail + Regieleki is a core a really like on HO cuz they provide rocks + removal while being able to output a ton of dmg. Fluffy Zarude is a set I have thought of for a while now but never firgured out how to make it work until I find trailblaze. With it, Zarude becomes a very threatening sweeper that can easily run away with the game even against all of the checks like RMoon, Zama or Corv.
Another one of my attempts at trying to make Weezing-G works. I used it a ton in OMPL and while my results with it has been less than stellar to say the least, I feel like it's more me being ass. Because of that I will keep bringing more Weezing-G team so if you're trying to cteam me in a tour, you should probably bring something good into it. (Like broken af specs Gholdengo I hate it so much fuck you)
If you dont know, I have brought Grassy HO in every AAAPL so far and while the other two teams are more gimmicky, I have to say I cooked with this one. Every set from RMoon to Zarude to Polteageist to Scream Tail are all top level cheese that can break unsuspecting teams. This is probably what perfection looks like if I do say so myself.
Natdex AAA
Ok so idk wtf they are smoking with natdex to think that somehow zmove is not broken. LIke take this Dnite set for examples. Z water turns all the normal counters like Zapdos, Ting Lu or Gliscor to dust. It's so braindead, you just set up and nuke your counter. Our team also robbed another week with a set I came up with: Z tinted lens Lando-T. Like just look at these replays and ban it pls:

As you may see from the fact that our team brought Bisharp or Muk-A almost every weeks, I love Pursuit. I just think it's a fun move that provides a lot of chances to outplay your opponent. Unfortunately
Atha hates Bisharp so I was only able to make Bisharp teams after we've qualified. S/o
Rabia for winning with the first version of this team when I somehow forgot to use my brain and dropped teleport on Blissey and leech seed on Ferro.
That's all. S/o to my friends
Atha Osake Siamato like usual, Atha for making me build every teams, Osake for sabotaging every slots that's not AAAUU and Siamato for being old. S/o to all of my teammates as well
O1V7O2X9O Baddy Treeko928 FlamPoke bagel gephicka Rabia jb291. Even though we didnt get there in the end, I still feel like this was one of the strongest Charizzards teams and it was great being on the team with all of you. Hope you enjoy the journey as well!
