Okay, guys i made this team and i decided to post it here to get some suggestions and improvements

Heatran @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
Tera Type: Flying
EVs: 228 HP / 252 SpA / 28 SpD
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Flamethrower
- Flash Cannon
- Taunt
- Stealth Rock

Heatran is my lead to set up rocks and taunt to prevent opponents from using hazards, aurora veil, screens, etc. and flash cannon / flamethrower for STAB

Dragonite @ Choice Band
Ability: Multiscale
Tera Type: Normal
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Extreme Speed
- Ice Spinner
- Outrage
- Earthquake

I use dragonite as a breaker, tera normal + extreme speed break those fast annoying sweeper mons that might put me in trouble, outrage for STAB and other moves for coverage

Zamazenta @ Leftovers
Ability: Dauntless Shield
Tera Type: Fire
EVs: 252 HP / 88 Def / 168 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Iron Defense
- Body Press
- Crunch
- Roar

I use zamazenta as a physical wall, and it hits very hard with iron def + body press. It also can be used to stop physical sweeps (like dragon dance or swords dance users) with roar.

Meowscarada @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Protean
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Grass
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Flower Trick
- Knock Off
- Triple Axel
- U-turn

meowscarada is basically for type coverage and knocking off opponent's items


Gholdengo @ Air Balloon
Ability: Good as Gold
Tera Type: Fairy
EVs: 252 HP / 196 Def / 60 Spe
Bold Nature
- Nasty Plot
- Shadow Ball
- Recover
- Make It Rain

i use gholdengo as a bulky sweeper with nasty plot, and as my special attacker

Great Tusk @ Booster Energy
Ability: Protosynthesis
Tera Type: Steel
EVs: 252 HP / 172 Atk / 8 Def / 76 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Bulk Up
- Headlong Rush
- Close Combat
- Rapid Spin

tusk because of rapid spin and also for their great deffense and phys attack.
 
Hi cool team! But there is a few changes I would like to suggest for you.

I would change the heatran set and tera type

and run this


Heatran @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Grass
EVs: 248 HP / 216 SpD / 44 Spe
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Stealth Rock
- Magma Storm
- Taunt
- Earth Power
The 44 speed evs allows you to outrun max speed adamant base 50s like ursaluna and and kingambit. Although Tera flying seems tempting its cost is making tran vulnerable to rocks which is not worth it with grass you resist water and ground which can be useful for tran, while of course being neutral to rocks at least.

2. For tusk I would just run max speed and I would probably suggest offensive utility set here as opposed to bulk up with boots.

3. I think I prefer dragapult over meow here as you need speed control and a pivot, which this team lacks.

Those are some of my changes from my view I hope they are useful to you.

Hi, welcome to smogon! I am locking your RMT for the time being as the forum rules require that you provide at least three lines of descriptions for each Pokemon to explain their roles. Please read the rules carefully and look at Team Showcase to see the detail we require. PM me with updated descriptions, and I will be happy to unlock this. Alternatively if you just want some quick tips feel free to post on the RMT section of the smogon discord.

To PM someone on Smogon, go over their name on any of their post. It will display a little pop-up with a summary of their profile. Then, hit the "Start conversation" button and you will be able to write a PM just like you write a regular thread.

Why did you choose this Pokemon? What do the EV spreads do and why do you have it? What are all 4 moves for?
