Whats good ya'll I got another team using pachirisu that I think has potential. It feels right for the most part but something about it just seems off. (https://pokepast.es/d21e333d782eb7da)
Lets get into my first pokemon and my restricted, the one and only Miraidon






1008-0.png
This is my first Pokemon, a standard Miraidon set that synergizes well with the team. It works well with Ursaluna because it can spam Discharge and Tera ground Helping Hand Pelipper also can power up Mirai as well.

Miraidon @ Choice Specs
Ability: Hadron Engine
Level: 50
Tera Type: Electric
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Discharge
- Electro Drift
- Volt Switch
- Draco Meteor

Pachirisu works very well with the team, Sitrus berry helps Pachirisu spam follow me and be quite a nuisance. But the real bulk comes from volt absorb. Volt absorb means that Pachi can heal when Miraidon uses discharge and keep spamming follow me. This also means it can switch into strong moves like volt switch from other Miraidon and force opponents to make tough decisions. Helping hand allows teammates like Ursaluna to do serious damage with hyper voice and make moves that wouldn't normally kill, kill. Endeavor is strong move when paired with nuzzle. It can nuzzle fast opponents, Tank hits and then usee endeavor to do big damage, This is super useful against opponents like Zamazenta and other tanks. Terra Grass is to bait moves like Stomping Tantrum or Earth Power that are usually pointed towards Miraidon to do little with follow me. Most of the time it doesn't need to tera though because it can live strong moves like Calyrex-Ice Stomping Tantrum. It also weakens the power of surging strikes Urshifu which would usually OHKO Miraidon with Surging Strikes in the rain
Pachirisu @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Volt Absorb
Level: 50
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Flying
EVs: 84 HP / 220 Def / 206 SpD

- Helping Hand
- Endeavor
- Nuzzle

Urshifu-Single Strike has always been in his big brother Rapid-Strike's Shadow but on this team I came to the conclusion that Urshifu-Single Strike would fit better, this is because I want to be able to hit strong psychic types like the Calyrex's and I want fighting stab to hit things like Ursaluna. It can outspeed and OHKO flutter mane under tailwind support from Pelipper.
Urshifu @ Black Glasses
Ability: Unseen Fist
Level: 50

EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Protect
- Close Combat
- Sucker Punch
- Wicked Blow

Pelipper is a very important support mon on my team, It stops sun rain teams using Koraidon and can help Miraidon with tera ground helping hand. It takes hits from Urshifu very well and can use tailwind to double all of its teamates speed. It pairs with Pachirisu with follow me and volt absorb and rain boosts Ogerpon's Ivy Cudgle.

Pelipper @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Drizzle
Level: 50
Tera Type: Ground
EVs: 252 HP / 76 Def / 4 SpA / 140 SpD / 36 Spe
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Hurricane
- Wide Guard
- Tailwind
- Helping Hand

Bloodmoon Ursaluna
Ursaluna is an incredibly strong Pokemon that synergizes well with it's teammates, It can easily sweep with helping hand, tera normal and tailwind and it is just a generally exceptional pokemon for this team.
Ursaluna-Bloodmoon @ Life Orb
Ability: Mind's Eye
Level: 50
Tera Type: Normal
EVs: 84 HP / 252 SpA / 172 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Earth Power
- Blood Moon
- Hyper Voice
- Protect

Ogerpon | Pokédex
Ogerpon is super strong in rain and water absorb makes it a good matchup into opposing water types such as kyogre. It also offers more follow me support which makes this team very hard to deal with.
Ogerpon-Wellspring (F) @ Wellspring Mask
Ability: Water Absorb
Level: 50
Tera Type: Water
EVs: 228 HP / 76 Atk / 4 Def / 12 SpD / 188 Spe
Serious Nature
- Ivy Cudgel
- Horn Leech
- Spiky Shield
- Follow Me

This team of course needs improvement to please tell me how I can fix any problems. The only thing is I want to keep Pachirisu no matter what.

I’d personally run a timid nature on mirai, or a bit more bulk than this, but idk, I think there are better ev spreads for specs mirai.
 
ngl :terapagos:+:flutter mane:seems really good into this team. I’ll flesh the post out later cause I don’t have time lol.
EDIT: The official flesh-out (that sounds so wrong)
Ok, so let's start with what's stated already. The pairing of Flutter Mane and Terapagos. This pairing can completely ignore your Pachirisu due to Dazzling Gleam, Icy Wind, or Tera Starstorm. And Pelipper isn't bulky enough to take a Specs Terapagos Hyper Beam (forgot to mention specs terapagos and speed booster flutter). Plus, Tera Shell+the removal of Rain AND Electric Terrain after Terapagos Terastilizes is really bad for your team. And with the Icy Wind support from Flutter, Terapagos can out speed Miraidon and slap it with a Earth Power or Hyper Beam. And if you don't Tera, Moonblast is still a threat. Again, Pachirisu gets wrecked by Earth Power and Tera Starstorm if it decides to Tera. And Urshifu gets rekt by Flutter as well. All you have is Ursaluna, which will get chunked down. Don't talk about Ogerpon. Take these suggestions, but they aren't mandatory.
- Urshifu to :urshifu rapid strike:
This was a pretty simple fix, as Urshifu-R can better abuse Rains in with the Choice Scarf item, get the jump on Terapagos and with Tera Water Surging Strikes it doesn't get wrecked by Flutter Mane. Plus, you still keep the Fighting-type pressure going. I'd run Scarf with Tera Water, Surging, CC, U-Turn and Aqua Jet.
- :ogerpon wellspring: to :Whimsicott:
This is again another easy fix, as now your offensive Water type is taken up by Urshifu. Plus, Whims applies more support for Mirai with instant TW and Encore support, along with Light Screen. I'd run Sash, TW, Encore, Moonblast and Light Screen with Tera Ghost
-Since Whims took TW, you can drop it on Pelipper for either Weather Ball or Protect.
I didn't want to alter the team, and I think that Pachirisu could be cool. Good luck!
