Fair enough I guess, although opposing Cinccinos are still enough to make me sit up a little straighter and play more carefully when using that team. Don't forget about Sharp Beak > Life Orb though; not having that extra recoil is really nice. Also… (Sharp Beak is slashed on the Physical Attacker set)Rollout Shucke
I disagree with Cincinno being a problem when you have fletch and delphox to revenge kill at worst, in the end cincinno is one of those mons that slip your mind when teambuilding cause... it is cincinno, a bad mon on its own and when building offense it always managed to screw you over. I sincerely dont consider at all realistically, maybe a bad habit but the team has the emergency buttons to handle it.
Durant gets flinched by king's rock shit anyways :V
Your suggestion all around though and I like it, but braviary is a cool and I was tired of using durant there :[
Thanks for the team man, I'm new to RU so I can't really tell if something is good or bad (lol rip me). I'll definitely give it a try and see how it goes. Thanks again!XenoTech N here ya go!
Teambuilding Process
Okay so as you requested I started out with Hone Claws Durant, who is a monster in this metagame. Durant has a ton of trouble with Bulky Waters and Steel-types, so to fix mostly the latter I added in a cool option: Gastrodon. This gives you a nice switch-in to Steel and some Water-types while acting as a good physical wall for stuff like Tyrantrum. After that, I decided to add Aromatisse, which supports the team with Wish and Heal Bell while walling stuff like Sneasel, Scrafty, and Hitmonlee. The team needed a backup answer to Fire-types with Grass coverage moves and a Stealth Rocker, so Mega-Camerupt fills that role nicely and also benefits from Aroma's Wish support. I needed a revenge killer and a check to Venomoth so I went with Choice Scarf Braviary with Sleep Talk over Superpower. That may seem crazy but Venomoth is a BIG threat right now (it also helps check Amoonguss) and the rest of the team already handles Steel- and Rock-types nicely except for Aromatisse. Finally, I needed some sort of win condition. I looked around for a long time and finally settled on Virizion, as it could check some extra stuff like Mola and set up on it. Stone Edge over Zen Headbutt since it hits Sigi and defensive Flying-types as well as Delphox on the switch.
Overall I really like how this team plays, it has a lot of defensive synergy and any of the Pokemon can put in work if needed (that's one reason why I like Gastrodon > Alomomola on this team). If you have any edits that you want to make please feel free to suggest changes! I've only played a couple games with it but it's already done really well, hope you enjoy it XenoTech N! ^.^

I may be KingT but I am not Jesus. I'll see what I can come up with though.Requesting Mega Camerupt balance, with a volt turn core, and hazard removal+hazard stacking, and possibly a way or two to break stall :)
with a volt turn core, and hazard removal+hazard stacking, This is the hard part tbh;-;, if the mega is too restrictive,I'm more than open to another :x.
Not too many mons get volt turn and with i being hazard stack it limits a lot of team building, but i put an example above.The volt-turn tbh is just something I was thinking of to help get Mega Camerupt in easily and exploit hazards. It's not strictly necessary tbh,if not anything else maybe have some team members that bait in easy targets for a double switch in to Mega Camerupt?
do you want one like the sample thing i posted up? I can just plug in the sets or make another one to your likingIf anyone still comes here. I would love to request a soike stacking team with Cm Meloetta. (idc if its offensive cm or sub cm) I would like it to be a hazzard stacking team with either one fo the. So yh looking for a team thats offensive since i mostly make my teams into stall by accidents. So yh hopefully you will accept my request and build a team around it ^.^
i've asked to host a new thread, but llamas said he wasn't comfortable taking the thread from gorex since he isn't completely dead :[Let me be blunt here, i'm the only one building(ocasionally NT and Scythe will put out some teams as well) i'm looking to getting someone to host a new thread with new builders so please be patient, it's only natural i'm gonna miss some of the requests :(
I have the rest of the day free now so i'll get to some of them that aren't done yet like the one above
No, I said ask him if he is willing to give it up, if you pm'd him on the forum and he didn't answer in spite of having been on a couple times or something, then take the project, but idk how a different host is going to produce teams more efficiently if its the same number of people building at the same rate.i've asked to host a new thread, but llamas said he wasn't comfortable taking the thread from gorex since he isn't completely dead :[
