    Hey Joey,
    I've been a fan of yours for almost 10 years and I'm also a huge fan of Feraligatr. I'm the guy who always donates €2 as soon as you upload a Feraligatr video, haha.
    Now that Feraligatr has gotten a Mega Evolution, I tried my hand at the Z-A Ladder and built my own team around it. And even though I'm not a regular player, I made it to the High Ladder (rank 384) with my team.
    Since you have what it takes to reach the top ladder and are currently uploading a lot of Legends Z-A content, I wanted to ask if you might want to use my team for your video?

    The star is, of course, Mega-Feraligatr, which can destroy entire teams with Outrage after a Dragon Dance. After Stealth Rock, it's even a 2HKO against Max Defense Skarmory and an OHKO against Max Defense Slowbro.
    Skarmory checks most physical threats, can stack Spikes, and whirlwind setup Mons like Dragon Dance Gyarados or Sword Dance Scizor.
    Clefable, on the other hand, checks many special threats and brings Stealth Rocks into play. Thunderbolt surprises special defensive Gyarados and is also good against Volcanion.
    Aegislash is the spin blocker. Shadow Sneak is good against Starmie, while Shuca Berry surprises Excadrill, which Sacred Sword is also good against.
    My own Rapid Spinner is Excadrill, but with Scarf, because on the one hand it sometimes bypasses the Sticky Web Speed Drop and then gets Rapid Spin out, which can surprise the opponent, but on the other hand it is also the best check against Mega-Delphox and Mega-Eelektross in a vacuum. Rock Tomb can check Flying types in the late game and is primarily intended against Talonflame.
    The biggest surprise, however, is probably Special Attacking Dragonite. With its three elemental moves, it checks a lot of meta threats, especially in the lead matchup: it destroys bulky Garchomp, opposing Dragonites, Gyarados, Scizor, and Skarmory. People just don't expect it, which is why it gets a lot of kills in this meta.

    I hope that wasn't too much text, but I think the team has a lot of potential, and I hope you see it that way too :)

    Best regards,
    Sevenes aka nootherchoice

    New Megas on the ZA ladder have been a lot of fun, and Mega Froslass has been a Mega I've wanted for a while

    https://pokepast.es/e780bd9ba4982656

    The combined offenses of Mega Froslass, Scarf Excadrill, and DDance Gyarados can overwhelm some teams. Skarmory and Hoopa make a nice defensive core, with Max HP Hoopa being able to take on most of the tier's special threats like Greninja and Mega Delphox. Scarf Mold Breaker Excadrill is there to help against Mega Delphox and other Steels if Skarmory or Hoopa is getting overwhelmed. Gyarados is also EV'd to outspeeds the whole tier after two Dragon Dances, with max HP being a comfort pick with Leftovers, being able to fill both a supportive Intimidate role while also looking for chances to set up and take pace.

    The main problem this team faces is PhysDef Umbreon and some variants of Special Agility Mega Dragonite from my experience. Hoopa has to be played carefully as to still be healthy enough to throw out some Drain Punches against Umbreon, otherwise the combination of Foul Play, Toxic, Wish, and Protect can be hard for this team to break. It's not impossible to win these matchups, but if preference suits it then Leftovers Magic Guard Clefable fits nicely over Gyarados, however it can make the matchup into Scizor a bit rougher if Skarmory or Volcanion get overwhelmed. Volcanion is EV'd to always live Adamant 252 Earthquakes from Excadrill and Garchomp if it needs to, dealing 99% max. Boots allow you to swap out EP or Sludge Bomb for Willo.

    As for the main piece of the team, Mega Froslass, perfectly accurate Blizzards are the main draw to this one, especially with Garchomp, Dragonite, Gourgeist, and Excadrill's popularity. Blizzard OHKOs the first three, and 2HKOs Excadrill. Ice Shard is there for weakened Dragonites who have set up with Agility or Dragon Dance, dealing 48% minimum to 0 HP Dragonite after Multiscale. Being your spinblocker, Froslass also looks to Skarmory to help weaken Excadrill so that Blizzard can KO, doing 63% minimum to 252 HP Excadrill and 74% minimum to offensive sets. First time submitting so sorry if this is a bit of a long post!
    Been loving the ZA metagame, so I made my first serious attempt at building a team. I've been having a ton of success with it so far, so I hope you'll give it a try!

    Stars of the team are Mega Greninja and Scarf Garchomp who are the real offensive backbone of the team. Together, they provide a ton of speed control and raw power, especially because most people seem to be running tank chomp right now, so it has a good surprise factor.

    Defensively, Volcanion and Talonflame make up a dual-fire defensive core that probably only works because of how dominant steel types are in this tier. Talonflame is ev'd specifically to outrun jolly Garchomp and Mega Excadrill, while always 2hkoing Exca from full. Will-o-wisp also provides good chip against bulkier threats. Volcanion is AV and almost always wins the 1v1 against other Volcanion, as well as Goodra-H.

    Meowstic and Aegislash are pretty self explanitory, but meow can sometimes be nice to keep alive for a late t-wave, and aegislash provides the only priority on this version of the team, so it can sometimes be really important to keep healthy.

    Thanks for reading and good luck!

    National Dex Stabmons has its monthly ladder again, so I thought I would drop you a team if you wanted to check it out.

    The team uses :abomasnow_mega:Mega Abomasnow to counter the most common :rotom_wash:Rotom-Wash set (Soundproof beats Torch Song and you resist everything else) and has SD :skarmory:Skarmory and BU :zamazenta:Zamazenta-Hero as win conditions. Enjoy!

    Got a weird one for you, ZA OU

    https://pokepast.es/d8b43dd40b5da9b9

    The stand outs on the team are AV utility stoise, and Veil Aurorus. Every match im impressed by the work Blastoise is putting in. Here are some notable calcs

    +2 252+ SpA Greninja-Mega Dark Pulse vs. 252 HP / 248+ SpD Assault Vest Blastoise: 136-162 (37.5 - 44.7%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

    252 SpA Delphox-Mega Psyshock vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Blastoise: 153-180 (42.2 - 49.7%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

    8 Atk Blastoise Flip Turn vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Delphox-Mega: 150-176 (51.5 - 60.4%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

    have fun!

    yoyo, i made a cool specs ghold team for aaa and hit top 5 - its super consistent and just requires you to outplay your opponent for most rough mus.

    i did a slightly more in-depth review of the team here, if youre interested in my thoughts about the team
    I know ur busy with ZA hype but i made a super fun AAA team with lead aerilate minior with explosion and endevour that hits ghosts, hadron engine ghold to enable fluffy set up Moon and Volt absorb Enam-T, queenly majesty kommo-o to counter extreme speed and prankster samurotts and standard Scrappy tusk to spin.
    Delete my nicknames and i will haunt you in ur sleep
