I would just use standard, solid teams. They make quick work of the low ladder. Sample teams and Pokemon high on the viability rankings are your friendsDoes anyone have some suggestions as to what I should use on my team for the suspect test? I haven't even started building it yet, I'm just looking for something to get me started. Any suggestions are appreciated!
Thanks for the advice! I made a team about an hour ago (https://pokepast.es/0353783eb2c3622a) and have gone 3-1 so far on the ladderI would just use standard, solid teams. They make quick work of the low ladder. Sample teams and Pokemon high on the viability rankings are your friends
You definitely don’t need Sash Chomp on such a balanced team — that set is best for hyper offense, which cannot take hits as easily. Otherwise, seems cool!Thanks for the advice! I made a team about an hour ago (https://pokepast.es/0353783eb2c3622a) and have gone 3-1 so far on the ladder
Any other items you recommend? Thanks for the advice - I'm up to 8-4 now!You definitely don’t need Sash Chomp on such a balanced team — that set is best for hyper offense, which cannot take hits as easily. Otherwise, seems cool!
Lefties, Life Orb, Lum Berry, and Rocky Helmet are all viable!Any other items you recommend? Thanks for the advice - I'm up to 8-4 now!
Good ideas! I'll probably pick Lefties or Helmet, since I want this Garchomp to be sticking around for a while, and Blissey could always Heal Bell it awake.Lefties, Life Orb, Lum Berry, and Rocky Helmet are all viable!
Depends on team -- both have merit, but NP is a bit more commonWhat hydreigon set is better? 3 attacks + Roost or NP with 2 attacks?
Kyurem (tie), Excadrill, Landorus-T, Rotom-H/W, Nidoking, Tapu Fini, bulky Volcarona, Moltres-Galar, some RH Chomp, and Adamant Urshifu-R.timid or modest specs lele? I have been using a team with timid but I find I'm getting these really lame rolls/3HKOs on stuff like Corv and Chansey. What is the speed needed for?
Timid is better imho, as you wont get outsped by other base 95 Pokemon and Pokemon such as Jolly Excadrill, Timid Max Speed Tapu Fini, and Timid Nidoking. These are all targets you want to outspeed and getting a OHKO or a 2HKO on at least.timid or modest specs lele?

They’re coming. The suspect took up a ton of time on Friday and over the weekend. Then, my computer broke Saturday and I just got a new laptop Monday, so I’m still getting situated. The drops will be tonight, tomorrow, or Friday at the latest.Wait, I’m a bit confused. Were there supposed to be drops posted in the VR update?
ohhhhh gotcha, thanks Finch! I was a bit confused, haha. Have a nice day!They’re coming. The suspect took up a ton of time on Friday and over the weekend.

it will be locked regardless as we are mid suspect, so it’s not as urgent as usual anyway
Only use I can see is a more specially defensive variant stealth rocker with Toxic (you can cripple most defoggers with it) as a way to stave off electric types and tbolt variants of cm clefable, while forcing progress on most defoggers and ground types (usually stealth rockers). drill's problems are that with the prevalence of corvi and skarm you are hard walled, rilla is as strong as ever and many powerful attackers can have type advantage on it (water, fight, fire and ground are incredibly common STAB or coverage moves). even outside of sand i would run sand rush, because you don't necessarily need mold breaker and you want to take full advantage of having an excadrill against an eventual sand team.Are there any uses for excadrill outside of teams with sand??
Yes. a bulky set with Rapid Spin or Stealth Rock can be used to check Clefable lacking Flamethrower and Tapu Koko, and occasionally a suicide lead set is used on hyper offensive teams for setting Stealth Rock, though Mew and Landorus-T usually do that better.Are there any uses for excadrill outside of teams with sand??
Excadrill can act as a Suicide Lead on some fringe Hyper Offense builds as well as being a check to Tapu Lele in some cases, with a EV spread of 4 Atk / 252 SpD / 252 Spe with Leftovers as its item. It can set Stealth Rocks and can poison checks such as Zapdos, Slowbro, and Swampert with Toxic. Furthermore it can cripple other Pokemon as well. Another option could be Rapid-Spin.Are there any uses for excadrill outside of teams with sand??
I think Koko + Lucha might be enough. The heavy usage of Ground-types won't do Regieleki any favor at all. I personally would not use it at all as an attacker. It's entire niche lies in dual screens, and even there it competes with Tapu Koko, Ninetales Alola, and Grimmsnarl, which offer more utility and support altogether. However, to add more offensive partners to your build, you should consider a Stealth Rock setter, and I think either Lando-T or Garchomp work out well with their defensive sets, as they can take on Zamazenta-C and other Pokemon such as Heatran decently well. You could add FutureSight support given by Slowbro / Slowking, depnding on your team and Teleport is always a great tool to get in your Pokemon safely.I was theorybuilding an electric terrain team, I've thought of an offensive core of Koko Regieleki Hawlucha, but I've no idea on how to complete the team. At first I thought of double terrain shenanigans with Rilla and Clawitzer, but it was too much for my frail heart. What would you add to that offensive core?
Honestly, I think that Regileki fits best on rain teams on the sixth slot. Rain teams just destroy the ground types in ou which would make its thunder spam a lot easier and the fact that Leki has a non existent movepool, you can slot in both thunder and thunderbolt and use the appropriate stab depending if rain is up or not. Your idea of thunder spam with rapid spin also fits rain since that would take pressure off Pelipper from getting rid of hazardsI was theorybuilding an electric terrain team, I've thought of an offensive core of Koko Regieleki Hawlucha, but I've no idea on how to complete the team.
