Project National Dex Bazaar

hello, first ever post on Smogon actually! I've been playing Natdex for quite some time now and I've recently been experimenting with screen teams and in the end ended up with this Zama screens HO. I returned to Showdown about 6 months ago and this team is the first time I've hit 1700s on a ladder :)

Ghostium Z Ghold just nukes anything really especially after a NP
Giga Drain & Psychic Volc is for Alo and Toxapex
Latias has enough Speed to outspeed Booster Ival after 1 Agility
This Urshifu set has beaten Toxapex by itself aswell (if no rocky helmet)

Super fun imo, also always open to any feedback :)
Team: https://pokepast.es/7dced47398fd79e8
 
An experimental fast-paced Regidrago team that turned out pretty successful on ladder. Having hella fun using regidrago which surprisingly ain't that bad of a MU fish mon considering most common fairies get 2 shot by specs ep.
https://pokepast.es/507f0dd52305f1a8
:lopunny-mega::regidrago::alomomola: :Gholdengo: :Cinderace: :Landorus-Therian:
Idea was to build around Mlop and breaker (regidrago) to cover offensive and fat builds. Some techs such as body slam mola to snipe/decentivise woger switch ins but also helpful to para mons for regidrago. Eject button ghold mainly for volt switch/u-turn zapdos and moltres as well as mola flip turn to bring in regidrago. Fully physdef ghold to help woger, kgb, ival, mus. SD 3a lando also acts as a more reliable secondary breaker if regidrago seems redundant against stuff like clef/fini.

Hey there. I am back again with some more teams and I got 3 new teams with spice and heat.

Salamence + Zard Y - https://pokepast.es/8ebfad85cc25cf4e

The concept of this team is to use Zard Y to click its buttons and does Zard Y stuff with a standard Weatherball, Solar Beam, Focus Blast + roost set. I went for Focus Blast to fix the Mega-Tyranitar match up but of course you can run scorching sands. Fire Blast is also an option and so is flamethrower over weatherball on Zard Y. Salamence here is Sub DD + Groundium z. This set uses Heatran, Gliscor and Toxapex as set up fodder by subbing on them and puts pressure on pex forcing it to haze and you can DD and once youre at +1 go for groundium Z and Pex gone. This Salamence set can also sweep later game pretty effecitvely once Zapdos, Corvknight and the physical unaware walls are out of the picture. Moxie and base 100 speed give Salamence more potential to sweep and becomes harder to revenge kill as it outspeeds Urshifu-Rapid Strike, Tapu Lele and Landorus-T which Dragonite does not. Plus I just like Salamence in general so it works out well. Temper Flare is an option to on this team to hit Corv if you are not scared of status.

Great Tusk is the hazard removal, stealth rock setter and good enough physical sponge with helmet to punish u-turn and mega lopunny and electric immunity. Zeraora is a source of speed control and has taunt to block set up and opposing hazards and set up and the evs are to outspeed zamazenta and the rest remaining in bulk with 8 HP minimising life orb recoil and I split the remaining 32 in pdef and spdef. Hatterene is magic bounce and another source of hazard prevention + capable of doing well vs stall. The speed evs are to outspeed Ting Lu and the rest in pdef and a bit of special attack. You can go bold too but I little more damage and hence for modest. On Great Tusk I felt being above 355 attack was a good enough number and went for 24 HP evs as I think you can take hits from Urshifu-rapid strike in sun better but you can go max attack. Kingambit is standard SD with black glasses with hopes of being a potential late game cleaner and a decent breaker too. Zeraora has Play Rough to hit great tusk as hard as possible and Close Combat for Mega-Tyranitar, Blissey/Chansey and Mega Lopunny. Zeraora can block a rapid spin from Teragapos by clicking Plasma Fists. The match up we struggled here was against a Gliscor + Pex + Celesteela core and a stall which rain iron head corv who flinched my hatterene.

I have 2 interesting Mega Sceptile teams.
The first one - https://pokepast.es/dcbfc1348f052723
The second one - https://pokepast.es/35ce3b20d1598626

They are both offensive teams based around my boy Mega Sceptile. I have gone above 1700 with both these teams which are similar.

In the first team, We have 4 attacks Mega Sceptile with 2 grass moves in Giga Drain, Leaf Storm, and stab Dragon Pulse and Focus Blast. Its a form of speed control and an electric immunity and decent at handling offence like Mega Lopunny, Tapu Koko, Greninja, Garchomp and so on. Latios is the scarfer and speed control outspeeding even Mega Swampert in rain and with trick to criple fat and with stabs Luster Purge and Draco Metoer and Mystical Fire for Mega Scizor and Ferrothorn and for lowering special attack of opps. Ceruledge is the physical sweeper or breaker depending on situations with strong stabs and essentially unwallable. Its only defensive checks are physical unaware walls and perhaps some variants of bulky Lando-T and Garchomp. In team 1 we have Great Tusk as the ground type, stealth rocker, spinner and with rocky helmet it punishes u-turns and chips off Mega Lopunny. Alolan Muk is the pursuit trapper with 4 speed evs to outspeed chansey. I tried 252 Attack, 240 HP, and 12 Spdef with 4 speed. But I think standard max attack, max HP with adamant AV is the way to go. I went for Knock Off, Gunk Shot for more power and to ohko val with a high chance of 2hkoing blissey and Pursuit which is big which allows me to trap Latis and some Gholdengos and many special attacking ghosts. Ive often traded with Zard Y and an interim check to it. Not a full Zard Y check but to an extent. You can run poison jab if you feel the power isn't necessary. Also, it pursuit traps Lele a lot for big damamge. Celesteeela is the special sweeper with automotise and flash canon is stab and fire blast with firium z is the nuke that destroys fat gholdengo. Celesteela is able to snowball often and the speed evs are to outspeed base 60s. Cele provides important defensive utility despite it being offensive. Zapdos is a annoying for this team to a reasonable extent and Heatran somewhat but still manageable. We have beaten every playstyle with this team.

In the second team, they are changes where celesteela is now physically based automotize with heavy slam, stone edge and earthquake. This now handles Heatran better and can take one hit from Zard Y and ko back with stone edge. I have weakness policy Ting Lu with earthquake, stone edge and payback. This allows Ting Lu to pick up a KO out of nowhere and this was inspired in part from a pokeaimd video. The ev spread Ive gone is what outspeeds clefable here but my initial ev spread was what outspeed base 50s like chansey. In addition, this ev spread is to survive a specs moonblast from timid Tapu Lele after rocks. The previous ev spread was 252 Attack, 44 speed, 156 HP. and 70 spdef. You can try that too. Ting Lu provides rocks. Empoleon is waterium Z to get a surprise KO and massive damage on stuff like corvknight. I went with ice beam to hit serperior hard and its also a defogger to remove hazards. I went with roost in the filler slot but you can also go for grass knot or flash canon to deal with Kyurem better. Speed evs are to outspeed adamant Ursuluna and Kingambit and 84 HP evs go in Bulk. Ceruledge, Latios and Mega Sceptiles roles remain the same here. I have been from min 1590 to 1746 max with these teams.

Anyway lets get into replays with the two teams

Overall, I must say these teams are worthy of try outs and for those who want interesting challenges. They are slightly risk but with high rewards. Thank you for reading and have a nice day.

Hello after looking at your team and how you highlighted kuyrem as a big issue I would like to first say maybe make heatran spedef which increases the chances if it's not specs kyurem to live epower if it runs it, this would also reduce your overall ice weakness and would help your offensive core a bit more, my rule of thumb with dnite is, if it's a breaker it needs to be supported by a defensive core and for the most part your team lacks that. If you run dnite I'd suggest dropping either zapdos or lando to find a suitable replacement as thats a huge issue with your team that would overall improve your team I would tell you to make lando phys def and find a better pivot then zapdos that is not weak to ice perhaps even a non-flying mon also imo samurott looks kinda ehh for this team it's not really helping much. Just my take on it.
 
Greetings Natdex enjoyers, I wanted to share with you guys a team that I had sucess with:
And that team is this Volcarona Fat team:
:volcarona::dragonite::skarmory::scream tail::toxapex::ting-lu:
I wanted to build a fat team that had good odds against Gholdengo, which is often a huge roadblock. To me, :volcarona: was that mon, as it has incredible special bulk, Quiver Dance and threatens Gholdengo if decided to stay in. I invested in speed originally to simply outrun Gholdengo at 294, but then move it to outrun max speed Pecharunt. The rest of its Evs are in max Hp, and 100 in Spdef. This spread allows Volcarona to survive a +2, Ghostium Z from max Spatk Timid Gholdengo after a Quiver Dance.
for reference:
+2 252 SpA Gholdengo Never-Ending Nightmare (160 BP) vs. +1 248 HP / 100 SpD Volcarona: 309-364 (82.8 - 97.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
The goal is to weaken the opposing team enough either via status, hazards and/or direct damage to eventually get a Volcarona sweep going. Another mon I do wanna highlight on this team is :scream tail:, as it is shockingly good into a ton of meta relevant mons. These include Mega Charizard Y, Mega Medicham, Mega Latios, Iron Valiant, Raging Bolt, Kyurem, and Tapu Lele to name a few. I opted for Play Rough over Dazzling Gleam to better handle Calm Mind Tapu Lele, and Protect alongside Wish can give it some longevity, and can make it a decent wishpasser for TingLu. Protect can also stall out field effect turns, such as sun turns from Mega Charizard Y, and psychic terrain turns from Tapu Lele. The last move was initially Encore, but while decent, it didnt fit the team all that well. Then I changed to Roar, and it made a huge change, now it can comfortably switch in against setup sweepers like Volcarona, Raging Bolt, and Tapu Lele, while giving a second spikes shuffler alongside TingLu. :ting-lu: itself was originally a Gliscor, but after hard losing to Nidoking of all mons, I wanted to lookup for a mon that could much better help on that matchup. TingLu works decently as an alternative to Gliscor on this team. It takes away some pressure from Volcarona as the one Gholdengo answer, making it easier to preserve for late game sweeping. It also works as a Yard answer when Scream Tail is under pressure as well. Ruination is also a move to that puts a ton of pressure on the opponent, as it either forces them to waste their heal moves, makes switchins incredibly awkard for them, and makes it easier to clean up for Volcarona. :dragonite: is the teams dedicated Ogerpon Wellspring answer and defogger. It also walls Yard if needed, as well as improve the Rain matchup, which is otherwise difficult to navigate. Alternatively, it can run Heal Bell, making Dragonite a solid cleric for whem mons like Tinglu, Scream Tail or Dragonite itself are statused, although the hazard situation would look rough if too many Knock Offs are spreaded. :toxapex: is the team's status spreader. Not much too really mention here, just your good ol favorite toxic mon. Finally, :skarmory: helps with Kingambit and Ursaluna while also being the team's Spiker. Rocky Helmet also puts a ton of pressure on mons with contact moves.
Here is a game on the 1700 range with this team:

Mega Mawile Team Showcase – National Dex OU


Hello again everyone! I'm excited to share a team I've been refining for quite some time, built around one central goal: enabling Mega Mawile to thrive in the National Dex OU metagame. After extensive testing, theorycrafting, and studying successful builds across the ladder, I believe I’ve crafted a structure that truly lets Mega Mawile shine.

Team-Building Philosophy
The core idea was to maximize Mawile’s wallbreaking potential by surrounding it with support that patches its weaknesses and opens up opportunities for it to dismantle opposing teams. I explored multiple defensive cores and ultimately settled on a backbone of Raging Bolt, Ferrothorn, Assault Vest Alomomola, and Defensive Landorus-Therian. This combination offers excellent type synergy, pivoting options, and status/hazard control—all crucial for giving Mawile room to operate.

However, after locking in the defensive core, I noticed the team lacked immediate offensive pressure and speed control. That’s when I decided to add the big dog himself: Choice Band Zamazenta. Not only does it hit like a freight train, but it also serves as my primary speed control, capable of pressuring bulkier threats that could otherwise stall out Mawile’s momentum.

Mega Mawile Set Breakdown
Rather than opting for the standard Swords Dance setup, I took a more utility-based approach to increase Mawile’s flexibility and punish common switch-ins:

Play Rough – Reliable STAB and essential for punishing Dragon-, Dark-, and Fighting-types.
Fire Fang – Covers key Steel-types like Ferrothorn and Mega Scizor that would otherwise wall Mawile.
Knock Off – Disrupts item-reliant switch-ins and chips down bulky pivots.
Sucker Punch – Priority to handle faster threats and secure clutch KOs.
This set allows Mawile to act as both a breaker and a disruptor, maintaining offensive pressure while supporting the rest of the team’s tempo.

Hey, cool team bro, I really like the 6. But the problem here is that you say you want to maximize Mawile's wallbreaking potential, yet you are actually walled by any stall team with a physically defensive Toxapex (an extremely common pick on stall teams). If they have anything to absorb Leech Seed it's just a game over in preview. Since you already have 2 Knock Off users on the team, I suggest you replace Knock Off with Thunder Punch on your Mawile. The higher you go on ladder the more these annoying stall players start to pop up so being able to just 6-0 them instead of get 6-0'ed yourself is a huge win% difference. I understand you want to knock Tran's Leftovers and Moltres' Boots, but your team does not really mind these pokemon and you can always make progress into the structures they are found on, especially if you play aggressively with double switches and whatnot. For a tournament setting where you're certain your opponent will not bring stall getting greedy like this might make sense, but not on ladder.

I'm only saying this because I actually think this is a really solid build that's probably the best Mega Mawile team I've seen. But this one change will help you climb with it
 
So for the past 4 years, ive just been a goofball trying out cool strats with all different types of pokemon ranging from the best in ou all the way down to F.E.A.R pokemon in lc. Along my way, I came up with an idea with something called reverse webs.This strategy involves sticky webbing your opponent, and then court changing it with cinderace and finally taking advantage of webs on your own side by using defiant/competetive/contrary pokemon. I have spent a lot of time on this team, and along the way I have got a lot of help from my peers in the national dex chat room and even people outside of it! I want to share my team and want people to rate my team. I have recently tried laddering with this team and have reached 1715 elo. . One huge pro of this team is that it's very unpredictable to someone who has not faced it before. One may not understand what is going on until its too late. This team uses araquinid to set up sticky webs, cinderace to taunt defogers and court change webs onto your own side and eventually bring out galarian-articuno who can set up trick room while also getting the competetive boost from webs due to iron ball grounding galarian-articuno and also halving its speed so that is at a speed of 58. While galarian-articuno itself is a abuser of trick room on this team, the 2 other main abusers are kingambit and empoleon. Kingambit has very strong knock offs which deals huge damage and can also provide priority to the team with sucker punch. Kingambit also has iron head for another strong stab and pursuit to trap enemies it doesnt want escaping. Empoleon utilizes z surf to break through special defensive walls and checks that resist it's moves such as blissey, toxapex, urshifu, sam-h, and more! Empoleon has hp fire to beat ferrothorn and msciz. Ice beam is there to beat wogerpon, kyurem, and dragon types that resist surf. Serperior is a pokemon with contrary that is an out of trick room sweeper. He has leaf storm to set up while also dealing insane amounts of damage, sub to not get statused, hp fire to beat ferro and msciz, and dpulse for kyurem and chipped dnite.

Hey guys. I am back again but with a new team.

Mixed Iron Valiant in Electric Terrain + Mega Sceptile and The return of choice band Tyranitar - Peak 1678

I decided to make use of mixed iron valiant with a set of close combat, moonblast, thunderbolt and psyshock. Its like gen 4 OU mixed attacking Infernape but with even more power. CC is for chansey,blissey and darks and is strong stab. Moonblast is stab, Tbolt takes care of corv and pex and hits harder in electric terrain and with stab it really stings. Psyshock is for Clodsire. I have gone for 40 attack 216 spa and 252 speed and it gets a speed boost in e-terrain.

Koko is taunt to prevent opposing webs and fairium z to hit grounds as hard as possible and tbolt is stab and calm mind can work to give it more power. It supports Iron valiant.

I brought back choice banded Tyranitar who is an old school classic in competitive. Tyranitar is banded with Stone edge, Pursuit, Fire Punch and Earthquake. Stone Edge hits hard and its stab and destroys birbs and has a good chance to 2hko even corv. Pursuit helps it trap Slowking-Galar who is a problem for my iron valiant. Fire Punch is for Mega Scizor and Tera Fire helps it against mega scizor. Earthquake is for Heatran and mega tyranitar and electrics.

Tinkaton is the ice resist,rocker and knocker of the team with good defensive utility. Thunder wave to cripple offence and giganton hammer for strong stab. The ev spread is outspeed base 65s and standard raging bolt spread. Tera Ghost to block rapid spins from great tusk. Tinkaton is the Lele switch in.

Mega Sceptile is my fast special attacker and check to water types. Giga Drain is for damage and recovery and to kill frailer waters instead of using leaf storm. Giga Drain even ohkoes standard Tusk. Leaf Storm is to hit as hard as possible and is stab too and to ohko Alamamola and threaten fat waters. Focus Blast is for Heatran and Mega Tyranitar and to ohko mega lopunny at neutral. Dragon Pulse is for stab to hit dragons. Mega Sceptile outspeeds Mega Lopunny which is pretty useful. Its my favourite pokemon too and mega. It also has lightning rod to block volt switch and absorb twaves to get spa boosts.

Thundurus-Therian is my scarfer with volt switch, hidden power ice, focus blast and defog. It outspeeds Scarf urshifu which is huge and kills it with volt switch. hidden power ice for garchomp, landorus-t and gliscor. Focus blast for heatran though i am considering grass knot too. Defog is mainly to remove hazards if they get too stacked up and especially removing webs because my mega sceptile does not like webs and so do iron valiant and koko. Tera fairy is too stone wall raging bolt and thundurus blocks volt switch and serves as an electric immunity before sceptile mega evolves.

https://pokepast.es/27240799d9b1e16f - Here is the team and I did get top 500 with it as above 1650 is top 500 for over a month now.

Here are some replays

Its an interesting team and worthy of trying out

Additional Note - I surpassed my peak to 1655 with my SD Mega Sceptile + Blastoise team - https://pokepast.es/d3e507fe2357a7ed and this replay https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9nationaldex-2188008587-ytelxb4lt619fel2kzvvcf6kkv77rd3pw?p2.

These teams did work because tera was legal at the time I posted my teams. So the Blastoise team did work when I using it at the time of terastalisation (tera). But Tera has been banned since November 2014. So post Tera the Blastoise team still worked at times but no longer consistent. You can still use Blastoise with this team. You would just need to change tera blast to terrain pulse for electric coverage. That's what I did. It might work out and this is the only Blastoise I have. I played nat Dex post Tera but right now I don't ladder anymore like I havent laddered since 8th October 2025 and im on break from ladering.
 
Hi people of Nat dex, I am a gimmick lover. I ONLY use gimmicks and while I was watching a room tour, I was peer pressured by one of my friends to use choice specs ferrothorn. At first, I thought that choice specs ferrothorn was uhm.. kinda bad, but as I started laddering, It became really usefull as fodder and also to be extremely surprising to face against. Choice Specs ferrothorn is really surprise dependant, but arent all gimmicks? I used Choice specs ferrothron on a rain team with thunder to hit flying types like moltres, torn-t, yards on a switch, corviknight, and even dondozos , energy ball for pretty strong stab while I also run max speed to outspeed hatterene, ting lu, toxapex, melmetal, alomomola, and even min speed pelippers on opposing rain teams to counter lead them. Steel beam is just to deal good amounts of damage and also sack ferrothorn to bring out a different pokemon for free to gain momentum. Hp rock is also just there to hit volcarona. This team actually made it to 1773 on ladder lmao. The rest of the team is just a full rain team with pelipper to set rain, av iron treads to check kyurem which usually destroys most rain teams, tapu lele, tapu koko, and in general alot of special attackers. Tapu koko is there on the team because he is a good abuser of specs thunder. Including the eterrain and rain, thunder is a 144 bp move which always hits due to rain. Also has volt switch to act as a pivot, hp ice for gliscor and ground types, and dazzling gleam for strong stab. Barraskewda is in my opinion, the BEST rain abuser. He is extremely fast in rain with swift swim, extremely strong with band, and liquidation hits like a truck. The last pokemon on this team is... special attacking expert belt cinderace on rain. Cinderace is a great user of electro ball which is further boosted by expert belt and eterrain which allows Cinderace to ohko mola, beat pex, slowbro, and also do tons of damage to gking
252 SpA Expert Belt Libero Cinderace Electro Ball (120 BP) vs. 8 HP / 248 SpD Alomomola in Electric Terrain: 490-578 (103.5 - 122.1%) -- guaranteed OHKO
252 SpA Expert Belt Libero Cinderace Electro Ball (120 BP) vs. 248 HP / 124 SpD Toxapex in Electric Terrain: 262-312 (86.4 - 102.9%) -- 18.8% chance to OHKO
252 SpA Expert Belt Libero Cinderace Electro Ball (150 BP) vs. 248 HP / 8 SpD Slowbro in Electric Terrain: 583-686 (148.3 - 174.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO
252 SpA Libero Cinderace Electro Ball (150 BP) vs. 248 HP / 252+ SpD Slowking-Galar in Electric Terrain: 138-163 (35.1 - 41.4%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

Hello there, my first time posting a team I love rain teams and it's sad that they have much less usage now because of ogerpon wellspring but this team managed to defeat many woger teams and reach 1700's
The team :
https://pokepast.es/48c77087a33e994b

Explanation :
Pelipper to set up the rain full defence for longevity and can easily survive woger while threatening with hurricane under rain.

And of course the goat of rain mega swampert, which whose waterfalls hit like a truck under rain and the electric immunity for the team for raging bolt matchups and jolly nature to outspeed kartana and ice punch for dragon types .

And we all know how strong barra under rain is with choice band even 2hkos resists and the speed control of the team, has close combat for ferrothorn and to be able to hit woger .

Archaludon finally fixes rain weaknesses against woger with it's defensive typing and it's ability stamina that walls it and it's super strong electro shot that destroys bulky water types to make sweeping easier with other Pokémon it basically takes 2-3 mons before fainting.

Tapu lele is a very strong fairy that puts psychic terrain to prevent any priority moves that can threaten barraskewda
And with fightium z it can okhko heatran so it's not a switch in anymore, even if it spdf after one calm mind, even ferrothorn gets nuked and kingambit so it fixes so many matchups that otherwise lele would struggle with and it's such a strong stall breaker with it's psyshocks for chansey and blissey after chipping them alittle and setting up calm mind.

Defensive zapdos is your answer for scarf urshifu-R , kartana which would threaten rain teams , lopunny mega and other strong physical attackers like zama and it can do big damage back with hurricane under rain so they are no problem anymore and uses defog to clear hazards and volt switch for momentum.

And finally enjoy using the team !
 
After participating in some tournaments thought id share one of my favorite teams ive built and had success with

:Kingambit::Garchomp::Slowking-Galar::Urshifu-Rapid-Strike::Corviknight::Diancie-Mega: (click for paste)


:Kingambit::Garchomp:

I started the team around this core as gambit rlly sucks into zama, shifu, tusk all of which can take a boosted sucker and ohko you back. Helmskin chomp allows you to get chip onto these to be in range of a gambit assault later on into the game. Fat gambit is very useful in tanking some hits while also having some longevity with leftovers. Chomp spread is essentially spdef chomp but put into physdef to take hits better (you can ev chomp to trade with mdiancie moonblast but I liked the speed in testing). Lastly I opted for double hazards on chomp to wear down things like mlop, mdiancie, and other offensive threats.

:Slowking-Galar::Urshifu-Rapid-Strike::Corviknight::Diancie-Mega:

Rest of the mons just round out roles needed. Glowking helps with lele which outright destroys the core and blocks sucker. I opted flame > twave/tox to help vs idbp corv and steels in general like ferro. Shifu provides speed control and positioning. Fsight + Shifu is also useful vs a lot of fatter teams. Corv gives a ground immune + defog and more pivoting. Lefties > helmet as it would just be redundant and helps vs lele too. M-Diancie rounds out the team by just breaking a bunch of shit for later sweeps.

Throughout a lot of tests & tournament play, I feel like this team has a bunch of outs and can outplay a lot of things. There are some annoying mus like yard (as chomp isnt spdf) and volc (same reasoning) but with good positioning is outplayable. If you end up trying this team out I wish you success and enjoy using it

Yes, you're seeing it right.

So originally I wanted to post the teams that I used in the National Dex Last Chance, but for the sake of the other players still in the tour, I will wait until the tour is over to post those. In the meantime, I was thinking to just build something wacky for the fun of it, and then I came across... this thing.
1000049377.png


Maractus is to be kindly, not a good mon. Its stats are simply too poor, while it does have a decentish special attack of 106, everything else is just mediocre to outright terrible. 60 speed is so slow, that it gets outspeed by a Choice Scarf Urshifu even WITH sun up. 86 Attack is middling, and is bulk is almost non existent as well. However, as I was looking at its movepool, I realized that this is the only Chlorophyll mon with access to the move Spikes. So I decided, hey, why not try and mess around with this guy?
And welp, here it is, El Especial Del Chef (The Chef's Special)
:maractus::torkoal::gholdengo::great tusk::raging bolt::alomomola:

So I decided to lay into this Hazard stacking idea with a sun team. Maractus is mainly here to apply pressure with Spikes, and can potentially be a bit aggressive as well with moves like Weather Ball and Giga Drain. I went for Knock Off as my last move to remove Boots, letting its Spikes sink on the opponent even more effectively. I decided to go for Torkoal as the setter for both sun and rocks. Gholdengo fitted perfectly with the team, not only to block Defog and Rapid Spin, but it also patches the Tapu Lele matchup very well. I went for the Hex set to potentially help Maractus with its speed issue. Great Tusk and Raging Bolt are the main breakers of the team, notably I went with Air Ballon on Tusk and Gholdengo since the team was lacking a Ground immunity. Lastly, I went for an Assault Vest Almomola to pivot around potentially irritating breakers like Mega Diancie.

At first, I was expecting getting bodied by any halfway decent team that I encounter, and while it did lose a lot, it did also perform well in some games. And I feel like with some tweeking, like maybe replacing Torkoal with Mega Charizard Y for example might make it better. Now does this suddenly make Maractus a decent mon in sun? Of course not. Even the likes of Scovillain is far better than Maractus could ever hope to be. But can it perform well? Possibly Yes, it can. At the end of the day, I just wanted to build a team to mess around with, and I can at least say "I was the one guy to make Maractus work", sort of. Maybe someone else would claim the title if they make a better team, but until then, I have the title on my belt.

Hi, I love gimmicks as my name implies and I was just having fun on youtube watching temp6t because he is the Goat of gimmicks in my personal opinion. In one of his videos he used an item called ring target. Ring target is an item which solely nullifies the immunities granted by a pokemon's typing. For example, if you used earthquake on a landorus-t holding ring target, it would take neutral damage. So with ring target in mind, I thought of a type of pokemon which LOVES to spam moves that are hard to stop. Thats when I thought of Regieleki. Regieleki is an electric type mon and is the fastest pokemon in the game with a base speed of 200. It can outspeed most scarfers in the tier and has an ability called transistor which gives electric type moves have 1.3x boost. Regieleki also learns a move called rising voltage which is a 70 bp move which doubles in electric terrain if the opposing pokemon is grounded. Regieleki on my team runs specs with volt switch to act as a offensive pivot when it likes to, rising voltage to sweep entire teams, ancient power for the extremely rare shedinja, and tera blast incase I need to hit a ground type with no ring target for some reason. The biggest flaw of regieleki is it's coverage and that electric is immune to ground. Though this immunity to ground can be removed through ring target. Now I'm sure your wondering how my opponent will have a ring target. I solve that issue with: Klefki. Klefki is a fairy steel pokemon that has prankster and has the move switcheroo. Klefki can hold ring target and lure in ground types with its steel typing and give them ring target. Klefki also runs spikes to set up hazards, magnet rise to not get hit by ground moves which is sometimes useful, and dazzling gleam for some damage. The other pokemon of the team are Tapu koko to set up electric terrain, iron treads to be an offensive utility as he is a hazard remover with rapid spin. Iron Treads also has access to z supercell slam which is extremely useful is getting rid of threats such of corviknight, slowbro, and alomomola. Steel roller is also on Iron Treads as it is a strong steel stab which gets rid of my issues with mega altaria and clefable. Iron Jugulis is the next pokemon who is an abuser of eterrain with it giving iron jugulis 1.5x speed and specs allows Iron jugulis to hit extremely hard. The last pokemon is iron hands who acts as a physically defensive TANK. Iron hands runs max hp max defense with lefties to provide some some type of healing. Iron hands is an absolute physical tank who walls kingambit, mega scizor, wogerpon, kartana, mega lopunny, melmetal, sam-h, urshifu-rapid-strike, zamazenta, mega gyarados, hawlucha, weavile, and tyranitar. Drain punch allows him to gain hp back, thunder punch for some strong stab damage, volt switch to act as a defensive pivot, and whirlwind to just get rid of annoying set-up sweepers.
Some Calcs with Defensive Iron Hands:
252 Atk Wellspring Mask Ogerpon-Wellspring Ivy Cudgel vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Quark Drive Iron Hands: 97-115 (18.9 - 22.4%) -- possible 6HKO
252 Atk Lopunny-Mega Close Combat vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Quark Drive Iron Hands: 108-127 (21 - 24.8%) -- possible 6HKO
252+ Atk Tyranitar-Mega Knock Off (97.5 BP) vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Quark Drive Iron Hands: 54-64 (10.5 - 12.5%) -- guaranteed 6HKO after sandstorm damage
252+ Atk Kingambit Low Kick (120 BP) vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Quark Drive Iron Hands: 78-92 (15.2 - 17.9%) -- possible 8HKO
252+ Atk Choice Band Iron Fist Melmetal Double Iron Bash (2 hits) vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Quark Drive Iron Hands: 108-130 (21 - 25.3%) -- possible 5HKO
252+ Atk Choice Band Melmetal Earthquake vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Quark Drive Iron Hands: 204-240 (39.8 - 46.8%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery
252 Atk Sharpness Samurott-Hisui Razor Shell vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Quark Drive Iron Hands: 84-100 (16.4 - 19.5%) -- possible 8HKO
+3 124 Def Zamazenta Body Press vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Quark Drive Iron Hands: 142-168 (27.7 - 32.8%) -- 73.9% chance to 4HKO after Leftovers recovery

This team was extremely successful and got me to 1809 on ladder

Dragmag offence featuring 3 Dragons - Peak 1728
https://pokepast.es/9c3e4c0f6d619946


I present the return of Dragmag in gen 9. I loved this strategy back in a way it was practical. Here we have 3 dragons including my favourite mega - Mega Sceptile and the other 2 in Latios and Dragon Dance Salamence.

Mega Sceptile - Standard 4 attacks with 2 grass moves - Giga Drain for damage + recovery, Leaf Storm for the extra power needed to do as much damage as possible on neutral or super effective hits. Dragon Pulse stab and Focus Blast for steels and darks. Serves as speed control and electric immunity blocking volt switch and I'm a veteran Mega Sceptile user.

Salamence - Sub + 2 attacks with Dragon Dance. Late game sweeper sometimes for mid game too. I used to run stone edge for Zapdos, Moltres, Match ups but changed to sub thinking of how common Gliscor and Alamamola are, so sub was useful there. You can still run stone edge if you dont fear them or even outrage too. Jolly here as we need the speed to outspeed water urshifu and scarf Lele at +1. Pretty solid vs passive mons and often using gliscor as set up and dont forget we have Moxie for the end game making it more dangerous and in this situation even better than Dragonite in my honest opinion.

Magnezone - A glue mon and make this strategy all better. It traps Corvknight, Ferrothorn, Skarmory and defensive Mega Scizor and can trap offensive Kingambit too and remove all of them from the game. Helps vs defensive celesteela too. Sub to prevent leech seeds and basically if they want to go to a ground then git a reasonably strong flash canon of them. Hidden Power fire for ferrothron and mega scizor and electrium Z the nuke that will always take out Corvknight and kos offensive Kingambit.

Iron Treads - The physical attacker, stealth rocker and rapid spinner to remove hazards. Earthquake is stab and Ice Spinner to hit Dragons and Gliscor and Lando. Standard spread with life orb for more power. Also, it acts as the electric immunity before Sceptile mega evolves. Good utility mon.

Azumarill - The physical wallbreaker with huge power and 4 attacks. Liquidation stab, Aqua Jet weaker stab but priority. Play Rough stab and Knock Off. Ev spread is to outspeed 0 speed Mega Scizor and the rest in HP to soften some attacks. Good defensive typing too with servicable bulk.

Latios - The scarfer with trick utility providing speed control even being faster than Mega Swampert (jolly in rain). Luster Purge and Draco Meteor are strong stabs with low PP and Draco lowers special attack by 2 stages. Mystical Fire for steels.

Team is weak to booster Iron Valiant but i still one games vs it and against Valiant it will be key to keep Azumarill health to live a hit and ko it. Latios lives moonblast most of the time if kept at full.

I haven't made an official return to regular laddering actually I was just playing for a few days to showcase my friends who wanted to learn and I hadn't played for over a month and was busy with other stuff in IRL and i wont be able to play regularly. Anyway thanks all for reading and have a wonderful day ahead and have fun with these teams
 
Hello noobs... Here's a team I've been using for a bit that got me to 1670 elo (I am a noob) , I give you the...

FAIRIUM-Z GWEEZING STALL!!!!!
:Clodsire::Sableye-Mega::Weezing-Galar::Dondozo::Tangrowth::Chansey:<-- click for paste

Rundown Of The Team :blobthumbsup:

Mableye: Mableye is normally what we lead with normally mega evolving it as soon as possible so hazards don't go up (which are very annoying for the team), it runs its standard set, protect so it can mega evolve without getting scathed while also helping out with future sight users such as Slowking-Galar and others, the other moves are pretty self explanatory so I don't feel the need to explain them.

Dondozo: Dondozo is crucial to this team as it doesn't make us set up fodder to most physical attackers in the tier, I run covert cloak mostly for the likes of Garganacl, but it also means we don't get flinched to death by melmetal, and can come in clutch against a variety of different moves. You can replace it with a different item like lefties or a rocky helmet. Curse allows you to rack up defense boosts allowing dozo to wall some hard hitting offensive threats better, body press is to hit waterpon, rest is to heal up, and waterfall is a way to hit mons that resist body press on the switch-in

Clodsire: Another crucial part of this team, similar to dondozo, it doesn't make us set up fodder to a variety of special attackers in the tier, most notably np gholdengo, I run payapa berry as it can come in clutch against tapu lele, hatterene, latios, and even the rare mega garde, jab is so that we can hit the fairies that would normally do a lot more damage to it, rocks is so we have some form of hazards, and eq is to hit stuff like heatran, and chip a lot of other ground-weak mons as they switch in

Chansey: Chansey is our blanket check to majority of the special attackers in the tier, we run psywave for the likes of gholdengo, toxic to spread poison amongst the opposing team, and counter to catch pursuit users like mega ttar and kingambit off guard. it's also funny to shamone stuff like tusk and other physical attackers.

Weezing-Galar: Weezing-Galar is our form of removal on this team, neutralizing gas allows it to defog on gholdengo which not many other mons can do, it also helps us against regen mons as neutralizing gas nullifies regen for whenever it switches in. We run a fairium-z to do huge chunks to a bunch of mons like raging bolt, hamurott, mega lop, iron valiant, great tusk, and a whole lot more, I also ran firium-z with flamethrower for the likes of gholdengo, ferrothorn, corv, and other steels and even ghostium-z to chip glowking and others!

Some Calcs...

16 SpA Neutralizing Gas Weezing-Galar Twinkle Tackle (175 BP) vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Raging Bolt: 372-438 (95.1 - 112%) -- 68.8% chance to OHKO
16 SpA Neutralizing Gas Weezing-Galar Twinkle Tackle (175 BP) vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Great Tusk: 558-656 (150.4 - 176.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO
16 SpA Neutralizing Gas Weezing-Galar Twinkle Tackle (175 BP) vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Samurott-Hisui: 474-558 (147.6 - 173.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO
16 SpA Neutralizing Gas Weezing-Galar Twinkle Tackle (175 BP) vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Lopunny-Mega: 344-408 (126.9 - 150.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO
16 SpA Neutralizing Gas Weezing-Galar Twinkle Tackle (175 BP) vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Garchomp: 384-452 (107.5 - 126.6%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Tangrowth: Tangrowth plays a pretty big role on this team, by helping us not get completely obliterated by waterpon, helmet racks up chip against physical attackers like shifu, mlop, lando, and a bunch of others, I just stole the smogon set and it worked out fine, but you can definitely change the moveset.

Replays (I don't have a lot):
