^paste^Introduction:
Hey, been a while. Since I crashed out so tremendously last time I was around, I figured I ought to come back with a gift. So, here's one of the best teams I've ever made. It came to me almost all at once, stemming from a single discord message.Team has felt really potent with a lot of room to maneuver proactively. I'm sure I could take it further but I'll stop here for now since I mostly wanted to hit #1 to do a little lighthearted trolling directed at Rey and Starry.

Building Process
- This mon had to be the starting point as per the request. I opted to use a spread I made early in SPL last year, for which I forget the calcs. Iirc it was meant to optimize the clef interaction, or potentially Strange Steam G-Weezing back when that was more common. - I opted to mimic Vert here with Scarf Glimm and rock-coverage Landorus because I remembered a structure with hands that I really liked from one of the Italians back in RMoon meta (I believe Niko but I'm sorry if I'm wrong) that used Lando really well to both chip hands checks and give it good entry opportunities. - I wanted to go heavy on breakers with a lot of low-consequence momentum moves. Banded Pult let me accomplish that goal while prioritizing speed. Primarina was originally specs because I tend to like the symmetry of 3 choice items when I'm early in a build. It later got changed to AV because Tace made the change and I didn't actually miss the power LOL. You're better into stall at the cost of being worse into some Gking teams. - You try finishing this team without a Gambit. It's Tera Grass for Rain/Sun/BoltThreat List
I think I did a pretty good job of accounting for most common structures, but there are some that can be difficult and one that relies on your opponent misplaying/hax, that being Boots Pech + ID Corv + AV Mola. Not the most common variant of balance, but the spread I have on Hands means it's pretty dead into these teams due to no knock off.Secondarily, ID Steel Zama and BU Speed Booster Poison Tusk can be rough. I also lost to one TB Electric SD Scizor which should be answered by Hands but I let it get chipped early so shoutout to whoever that demon is.
