Let's start off with some proof: my alt is Charizard Broken and you can see my screenshot, I won a match after that and got to 1696 but I don't have "proof" so I just put the top I have proof for.

I built this team on the premise of surprise and I made a video about the main process and how to play it, total of 3 videos that I'll attach down there, the first is about how to play it, the second how I built it step by step, third more top ladder matches(coming soon I have them ready).

Main concept: set rocks and forget about seismi unless the opponent has dracovish, do some damage and don't let them guess what kind of corviknight you're running, identify the counters, try to kill them or damage them severely, sweep.

Ability: Gorilla Tactics

EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe

My little alien, he does what he's meant to do, counters dynamax and setuppers.

Big boy (Corviknight) (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Pressure
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Bulk Up
- Body Press
- Brave Bird
- Roost

The MVP, set up sweeper, Body press just so you don't get crippled by WoW and boosts while dynamaxed, max speed to outspeed Cinderace after a boost, if you want you can subtract and make it so at +2 it outspeeds just scarf Darmanitan (not like it really matters anyway).
This set can improve for sure but I'm so used to it that I've never thinked too much about it, give me some advice.

Fast Boy (Dragapult) (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Infiltrator
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 76 HP / 180 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Will-O-Wisp
- Hex
- Disable
- Substitute

I lost too many times to this set in top ladder, it has not real function other than annoy and get chip damage on stuff that bothers corvi, hp pretty randomic I think there's a reason but I forgot, it's probably to live something while dynamaxed if I remember correctly.

Ugly boy (Clefable) (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Magic Guard
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 168 HP / 252 SpA / 88 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Flamethrower
- Thunder
- Moonblast
- Moonlight

This UGLY pink smurf just tears apart teams and gets serious damage every time it comes in, speed was to outspeed some set I had of Corviknight idk not really important, you can even run it max hp or max spe, the function is similar.​

If you have any advice about the team lmk and I'll try it, probably there is a ton of stuff to improve and I'm not satisfied of some interactions that I would have to make calcs for(like on Corvi/draga/Clef).

Apart from that it's really fun and I think once you learn how to use it, maybe by watching my videos on it, you're set for success both in comp/ladder.
Many people are using similar builds because they are so strong, if you want to make some changes consider switching Seismitoad/Ditto if the meta develops differently.

Hope you enjoyed this short "guide" and if you did drop a like/sub too!
 
Hello! I really like the team and have been using it quite often. I'm not all that great at competitive (but still learning) and had a question. How do you deal with hazard setters without a defogger or a rapid spin?
 
Welcome to Smogon! I'm locking your RMT for the time being as the forum rules require that you provide at least 3 lines of descriptions for each Pokemon to explain their roles. Please read the rules carefully and take a look at Team Showcase to see the level of detail we require. PM me with updated descriptions and I'll be happy to unlock this. If you need help with the explanations, you can visit the OU forum and look at the individual pokemon threads for help.
