**Grass Spam Ho**
(https://pokepast.es/cf5453d6b479c2c2)
This team is based around the ability to abuse Grassy Terrain from Bulu to a very high extent. Charizard and Bulu, with their powerful offensive nature, bring opportunities for Hawlucha and Magearna to eventually win.
**Explanations**
I chose Hawlucha, Tapu Bulu, and Charizard because Charizard and Bulu can check a good amount of each other's threats and provide good support with the abilities of Grassy Terrain to enable offensive potential. A bulky Calm Mind Magearna helps greatly with its ability to switch into stuff like Zam and Lele while maintaining offensive pressure with Calm Mind.
These guys enable a late-game Hawlucha win by pressuring a lot of stuff that would be hard for Hawlucha to deal with at the very start.
Bulky Magearna and Lando are perfect glue as they provide a VoltTurn core that can pivot into a lot of threats in the entire tier while still being able to provide offensive pressure to force progress. When you can't usually switch into or make much progress against a threat, you always have your Charizard and Bulu that can deal with those said threats.
Imprison max HP Yache Lando is cool here because of its ability to stop opposing hazards from going up while having your own rocks and U-turn to be able to pivot into stuff safely with the max HP investment. Yache is cool because it will definitely catch stuff like Koko and other Ice Beam users off guard, allowing you to kill said threat or pivot out with less risk.
Serp is chosen here to help enable even more offensive pressure with Glare to stop threats and make even more progress with Leaf Storm by abusing terrain, defogging rocks if needed, and preventing rocks from going up with Taunt.
**Threats**
*Charizard Y:*
On preview, it looks like this thing is going to destroy a bunch of stuff, so it usually ends up with you having to trade your Charizard X in most cases, especially with the lack of hazard control for it, so be sure to watch out for that.
*Opposing Hawlucha:*
This thing can definitely become a demon if you lose key mons like Magearna or Charizard to have somewhat of a chance to stop it in its tracks, or you may have to end up in iffy Hawlucha 1v1s.
**Things That Aren't Super Threatening but to Watch Out For**
*Things faster than you:*
As you can see, Hawlucha is the main speed control of this team, but it can only switch in once and keep its Speed boost. This automatically puts you at a disadvantage from a speed perspective, so most of the time, you're going to have to rely on Lando and Serp to switch in and try to take back momentum with the threat of Leaf Storm and the ability to Glare anything that can come in or U-turn to use your other threats. However, this can vary depending on what the opponent has.
Thanks for listening!

- I love Keldeo. Despite specs really not being a real set, I chose to build with it here since I expected other people to already post with the far superior sub cm set. I pair it with future sight cresselia and z-wood hammer tapu bulu to help break through its many defensive checks like toxapex, tapu fini, latias-mega and the rare venusaur-mega to name some. Scald is the most spamable stab attack since it cant miss and burn puts more pressure on checks. Toxic is there for latias and slowbro that don't fear burn very much and are susceptible to toxic, putting a lot more pressure on them to consistently switch into keldeo. Hydro pump and secret sword are self explanatory; strong stab moves to break through teams. The 36 spdef allows keldeo to survive 2 + fire blasts from volcarona after a turn of grassy terrain healing.
- I then went with cresselia since it is able to act as a fat wall to common issues for the team structure I was going for in medicham-mega and tapu-lele, while also having surprising offensive utility in future sight and thunder wave. Future sight is specifically there to nail toxapex and venusaur-mega which are able to switch into keldeo and tapu bulu too in the case of venusaur, however it is also able to hit targets neutrally such as tapu-fini and rotom-wash. Thunder wave cripples threats like tapu-lele, alakazam-mega and tornadus-therian which can otherwise be troublesome and are able to revenge kill keldeo and tapu-bulu. Ice beam is an immediate attack that can pressure landorus-therian and garchomp mostly.
- Next up was a rocks setter and steel type, which coincidentally is also able to pressure toxapex and latias-mega with magma storm. It provides a valuable fairy and grass resistance, along with a second ice and psychic resist, patching up a lot of the defensive holes the team had before. It is also not passive, pressuring out defensive pokemon that fear being trapped and racking up chip damage very quickly on pokemon like tapu fini.
