First Time making my own DOU team, advice very much welcome.

Basically my goal is to use Ninetales to set up with Whimsi for tailwind, and then swap into Chien for the defense buff
Zoroark will disguise as either Kingambit or Sneasler (Or maybe Whimsicott) because I love Zoroark even though he's a UU.
I'm sure that this comp isn't the BEST but I think it's a good start. LMK

Thanks for your interest in DOU, but we don't allow individual threads for team advice on the DOU forum. You are welcome to ask for advice either in the Smogon Doubles PS Room, or in the doubles discord. You can post your teams to the team bazaar post, or ask for advice on the doubles Overview thread. As per the rules on that thread, posting a new thread in the DOU forum requires moderator approval So I'm going to have to lock this & move the thread.

As for team advice, building snow around swords dance kingambit can be very effective, as seen by this past sample team, so I think you're on the right track. That being said, I highly recommend you check out the Doubles OU Viability rankings to see what pokemon are generally good. Stuff like Zoraoark-Hisui is going to be very difficult to use successfully. So I'd recommend replacing that with a support pokemon that is good into fire types, since you have a lot of fire weaknesses, such as Ogerpon-Wellspring. Then to give more support to set up, I'd change the Sneasler to an assault vest with fake out set. Lastly, this team doesn't really need whimsicott as your attackers all have priority moves like sucker punch, so I'd make that a fire type that can help with your other set up sweepers, like Howl Gouging fire.

So here's what the team would look like: https://pokepast.es/3924512ce3750a48

I changed a few EVs on Ninetales-Alola to the sample set to make it more efficient, and gave it encore so you still have that disruption since you no longer have Whimsicott. Hope this helps!
