    Finally a singles OM that the pledge moves work in!! I tried swamp and fire storm, but I think since rain is easier to setup than sun, rainbow works the best. It also pairs well with Zapdos having 60% 2ndary effects on BOTH moves.

    Notes for team:
    Smeargle:
    -Silk Trap is to out speed common users of contact moves like Samurott and Aeavile
    -Endure Custap is for non-contact users, like ogerpon, dragapult, and any special attacker. Also can be used for anything you cant outspeed with them at -1 most notably quaquaval
    Empoleon:
    You can make it wise glasses or specs if you want shit dead but I personally wouldn't as ice beam + surf kills almost everything as is, the extra boost would be for vacuum wave as it can miss out on some KOs without it
    Hatterene:
    Switch to this on a suspected taunt, else keep this and Deo-d's hp health for Skeledirge (it is extremely fucking annoying if you cant face it in trick room)
    Serperior:
    Into Corv/Cinderace this is your best shot at winning. Raw Leaf Storm into dragon pulse kills Cinderace and can quickly wear down Corv. Literally nothing but goodra and its own inaccuracy can stop this monster, it muscles through everything.

    Pokebilities AAA TSpike Rain: This time for an actually thought out team, where the gimmick actually works lmao (unlike Desolate Land Protosynthesis). This team was built for using Merciless Kingdra in the rain, using Kingdra to the fullest, though that support also works phenomenally for sweeper Dry Skin Gliscor
    IMO Kingdra Tentacruel are clickbait worthy lmao, though for their ability Volt Absorb Pelipper and Primordial Sea Empoleon work. Gliscor might earn the thumbnail though (even if it isn't the most interesting mon), it swept in 10 of my 13 wins with the team (on an alt)

    General use notes: Tentacruel is fairly important - Tspike especially, but the rain, knock (for HDB), and spin all make it valuable, though the team can survive without (especially if you get tspike up). Pech poisons can help Gliscor beat anything that walls it (Ground immune steels/ghosts like some Pechs and Heatrans). The only things that don't get poisoned are Garg and Drizzle Vap, which both should get handled by Gliscor (or any of the rain if its Levitate/EE Garg). Empoleon is there to reset your own rain so you end up with less awkward timing, alongside beating opposing weather.
    Since the team is a little reliant on hazards (intentionally this time, Rabia lol), Pecha can stop spin and Competitive Empoleon punishes Defog. Cruel can also reset them easily, in my experience.

    Had some fun messing around with this team in the Pokebilities AAA OM, Talon serves as a potent wincon + Priority user to force switches, and Meow and Greninja help break defensive cores that Talon would struggle to break on its own. The Torn is probably the most replaceable member on the team, but I wasn't sure what to put over it, so feel free to make changes as you see fit :)

    GSC UUPL is a bit of a paradox. It's a tournament, but also, it might be a lifestyle.

    This is a team centered around av meloetta that serves the dual role of being a specially defensive wall as well as being a secondary offensive option. We're using tera water to check special breakers on both rain and sun in :Walking Wake: and :Kingdra: . We're running close combat to target into :blissey: , shadow ball to be able to target into :Hatterene: and :Gholdengo: psyshock to hit into :Slowking-Galar: and hyper voice to be able to beat sub protect :Kyurem: with ease. The team ended up peaking at about 1750, anyways I hope that it's to your liking!

    New Metagame, New attempt to make Meloetta-Pirouette somewhat viable. This is a pretty cool Guts Meloetta Team.

    I usually switch between SpDef and Def Corv, but I would recommend SpD Corv as there’s a lot of strong special attackers and Earth Eater Heatran + Prankster Pech can usually deal with all the Physical attackers. You can also make Reuniclus either calm mind or 4 attacks, as I almost never click recover in any of my games.

    Even though Meloetta only has 4 SpA EVs, she still has 128 base SpA so she can easily revenge kill and become faster than like half of the metagame, excluding choice scarves. Just don’t use Relic Song on a ghost type .

    Pokebilities AAA HO Electric Terrain: Really dumb/fun electric terrain spam, featuring a mon that seems like it should be illegal, so use quickly before that gets banned

    Firstly, this is mainly to make you aware that Desolate Land + Protosynthesis is legal; all other weather + (potential) speed boost abilities are banned but this combo (even Regular Drought + Proto). Even if you don't use this team, you should try to use that combo before it goes.

    Sandy Shocks is the feature and potentially Clickbait because "illegal mon". It hits obscenely hard and fast - leading and volt switching is a nuke because everyone expects hazards. Though switching it from specs to hazards could be good too.
    Other highlights: Emergency Exit Pincurchin is very dumb but has been putting in the work, being a bonus sack for 8 turns of terrain. Hadron Engine Latios drops dracos as always.

    If too HO, probs can replace ARaichu or Leaves, both fairly standard and fill the same roll. What I've seen is that the team is a bit weak to ground and dark (esp. sucker punch), but wanted to get this to you before Desolate Land + Protosynthesis gets fixed (if it does)
    Tknowledge
    Actually that tech (desolate land + Proto) doesn't work, hence why it isn't illegal. I didn't notice until Rabia's Video so RIP.

    Still a fun team that I went 4/5 with, and the Desolate Land still has use at stopping weather. If you're going to use it, replace CC with Sacred Sword (very forgettable on non-sharpness mons). Rabia replaced Taunt w/ Leaf Blade, take your pick IMO, I found taunt very strong vs stall.
    Just don't get overly-focused on hazard stacking, just get Raichu and Leaves in (especially using Pin as a pivot, not as a hazard setter).

    very boring pokebilities AAA team, the idea is hope that squawkabilly and cinccino actually land their moves with h-sam for ghost types. I have no idea if the team is any good or not but watching squawkabilly just ohko everything with toxic boost guts hustle facade is very funny!
