There's the team now for context I originally had hitmontop and thundurus-therian instead of weezing-galar and enamarous. After I changed the two my team became much better but still below average in dealing with certain threats such as balance, stall team and even setup mons. The main idea of the team is to deal heavy damage with it's choiced mons then switch into the defensive mons to tank hits and allow safe switch ins to the attackers. Now it's time to tell about the team's roles:
-Weavile: One of the physical attackers of the team and is choice banded to deal massive damage to any mon even on neutral hits. it can punish anything switching in with a knock off, use it's priority to go first and beat would bad matchups and finish off low health mons, also has low kick for punishing and baiting in steel types and other resists.
-Ogerpon: Another physical attacker in the team, also choice banded this time packing a powerful grass stab. It has knock off to deal damage on switch ins, U-turn to get momentum and predict a switch, And has rock tomb for... lowering the speed of mons???? (Not sure about this one). it can tera grass to gain a speed boost and allow it to out speed most un-boosted threats, defiant helps it stay on the offensive and gives a reliable way to counter sticky webs.
-Primarina: The one and only special wall in the team with assault vest, It has Moon blast and Psychic Noise for stab. Whirlpool to trap mons switching in on it, and tera ground to trap electric types and poison types (Mainly Zapdos and Iron-Moth), and has flip turn to get momentum on switches. it can tank a lot of hits but gets chipped down by hazards easily and knock off is really detrimental, can easily withstand darkrai's and threaten it with moon blast.
-Pechaurant: A physical wall for the team. Has parting shot to gain momentum and weaken foes, can shadow ball as a stab attack, malignant chain to fish for toxic's and chip damage the opponent. has recover for longevity, rocky helmet punishes physical hits, it mainly has a great matchup against most physical attackers especially ones with extreme speed since it gets a free switch, can reliable fish for malignant chain on resisted or physical targets, can parting shot weakening incoming switch ins.
-Weezing-Galar: Another physical wall this time with far more utility options and heavy duty boots to reliably switch in. Has defog to get rid of hazards, has strange steam for stab, will-o-wisp to cripple physical attackers, pain split to recover from high health targets. it easily tanks most non-super effective physical hits and will-o-wisp forcing switches, it can freely defog on any physical threat, and has enough bulk to survive some special attacks.
-Enamorous: The "Wallbreaker" (maybe) and special attacking choice specs mon. Has moon blast for stab, earth power to deal with steel types, flamethrower for extra coverage, and sludge bomb for extra coverage too. It's great thanks to it's coverage options and unpredictability, even when attacking with neutral non-stab options it can easily deal massive damage to any switch in, not to mention that with a predict it can easily catch opponent off guard. Tera ground helps it survive attacks and gain a boost on earth power, flipping the match up against poison and steel types.

Pretty solid team overall! I would say maybe there is a better option over Weavile, and if there is i cant really think of one right now. But overall a really good strategy and team

This team has to go trough a couple revisions before becoming pretty decent, but I agree. Weavile is a bit unreliable sometimes even though it's strong. It constantly takes too much chip damage from stealth rock and has a hard time switching in, constantly needs to predict and can't really do much with resisted hits, gets destroyed by rocky helmet. And it's coverage options are limited.
 
Iron Boulder @ Choice Band
Ability: Quark Drive
Tera Type: Rock
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Earthquake
- Close Combat
- Mighty Cleave
- Throat Chop

hmm what about choice band Iron Boulder, it has a good speed tier, can bypass protect and ignore gliscor protect, and has good coverage and doesn't get chipped by stealth rock unlike weavile.
 
Also what do you guys think if I switch out enamarous with thundurus since I've been seeing more success using thundurus. Though since the team got steam rolled by weather teams (specifically bereskewda) I replaced weezing with altaria.
 
I would probably say Samurott just because it has overall better stats and better typing
H-Samurott makes raging bolt even stronger against this team, modest CS thundurus-therian probably solves this, with tera fairy+tera blast he is also a check against kyuren and zamazenta.

I think that having Altaria and Thundurus makes the team a little fragile to rocks and I could be wrong, but in my opinion Ogerpon already solves Barraskewda.

And I also believe that ES will have normal dnite after DD, which is very problematic for this team, since earthquake dragonite is very normal and even with parting shot it will hit very hard with priority.
 
Hey,

I feel the Pokemon included in the new paste should still cover the original Pokemon's roles. For example, Heatran is the main answer for Iron Moth, provides Stealth Rock, and makes the Pecharunt matchup slightly better. Great Tusk is the Ground-type and in particular a Raging Bolt check, entry hazard removal, and Kingambit check. When removing them, the team is considerably worse into Iron Moth, Raging Bolt, and Kingambit in particular.

With your new paste, what comes to mind is changing Pecharunt for Ting-Lu. Ting-Lu coves a lot of slots, Ground-type, Iron Moth, Raging Bolt, and Pecharunt check, entry hazards, while a bit of what Pecharunt does can be covered by Galarian Weezing already. With that in mind, Tera Grass Galarian Weezing could help against Ogerpon-W, which is the matchup that gets considerably worse when removing Pecharunt. A Primarina faster than Adamant Kingambit, like the set here could make the matchup a bit more bearable.

Just a few pointers, but would mostly advice to do not forget about the Iron Moth matchup with the changes you make.
