This has been my main team for a while and its done pretty well overall for me. Tbh I started with zera, a pokemon I use a lot in 1v1, and naganadel, my favorite ub and one of my favorite dragon types, and finally after some experimentation I decided to go with Urshifu RS for the final member. Urshifu's roll is to counter most sturdy mons with surfing strikes, and beat many custap mons with aqua jet, Ice punch is there for dragons and cc is powerful stab. Zera is here as a stall breaker with taunt, and expert belt for extra power without the recoil of lo, which has genuinely saved me more times than I can count thanks to Zera's surprising bulk, letting it get the clutch knock-off off and taking away opponents choice scarfs or bands/specs. Plasma fists is here for stab, cc for coverage, and knock-off to get rid, of items. Naga is here as my special attacker and hits the fairies of the meta hard with sludge bomb, draco meteor is here for stab, fire blast to hit steels, and protect to help with custap sylveon. Life orb gives Nag great power without locking into a move so it can beat sylveon. This team is pretty weak to psychic types(necrozma), so you'll have to rely on your opponent thinking moistshifu is his dark type counterpart in order to deal with it.

I'm pretty new to this tier (and competitive Pokémon in général), so don't expect too much thought on this team in terms of moves (most sets are taken from Smogon). I just wanted one physical attacker, one defender (well, one anti-stalling) and one special attacker that could cover a lot of types, both offensively and defensively. From what I could see and play (AKA in around 1300, pretty sure that's low ELO), this team does pretty well (if we don't take the fact that I don't know the meta builds and get fucked over by that), but it also struggles against two elements:
- Electric type is kind of a bitch to handle. It's a bit better to handle with Sawk's Earthquake, but it's obviously not perfect since Rotom-H exists (also Sawk is pretty frail and Sturdy loses to Custap mons, which complicates things a bit more)
- Disable Dragapult. It shuts down two of my Pokémons (Sawk and Primarina) and the last one (Corviknight) I feel isn't that good, offensively speaking (especially against such a Pokémon). I tried using your typical Weakness Policy Aegislash instead of Corviknight and while it's certainly better against Dragapult than Corviknight, I don't know if it's a good idea to keep him in the long run, because then I'd have no way of reliably dealing with stalling
