A while ago I had thought of a team that involves falinks and spamming no retreat by trapping it beforehand.
When it worked it really worked but it just wasn't up to the task.
Here's the final version of the team:

Bit of explanation:
: Pollen Puff to heal Falinks, Protect to protect, Block to trap Falinks in, Ally Switch works pretty good considering their types.
: Protect to not get one-shot turn one while Mew uses Block, No Retreat to be spammed while aided by someone else, two attacking moves
,
,
: They're almost all the same with each differing by one move (Aromatherapy for Chansey, Follow Me for Cleffable, Helping Hand for Indeedee). Very cookie cutter type stuff.
: In case Mew dies ?
When it worked it really worked but it just wasn't up to the task.
