Hey, the Cono is back for the RMTs in OU with a team built around CB Lokix + Fsight, an unstoppable combo. I built this team with Volcaronium, the famous top player of Corrèze. I reached 1800 ladder with her but I'm too lazy to play so make her do top1 for me.
Let's go for the presentation of the team.
Lokix is the star of the team, with his Choice Band and his talent Tintend Lens he is a very nice wallbreaker. The main counter has Lokix being Great Tusk, we decided to play it in combo with Slowking Future Sight and then it becomes unmanageable for the opponent. Moreover slowking is one of the best special walls in the current metagame. Great Tusk is probably the best mon in OU, it can put the rocks and remove them with Rapid Spin, it's an essential physical wall. Glimmora is a good revenge killer and it can remove T-Spikes, it can surprise with his Choice Scarf. Dragapult hits hard and fast, bepasses subs and can U-turn for Lokix like Corviknight who finishes the team, managing some specific threats of the team.
