Nasty Plot Zoroark Webs
Nasty Plot Zoroark Webs
This is a webs team built around Nasty Plot Zoroark as requested, LO is fine on this build but I went for boots on this because it gives the opponent the illusion that your Zoroark is Salazzle and ofc boots let it switch-in more often. I added Araquanid because it's a fighting resist thats able to beat mons like Rhyperior, Salazzle, and Steelix while also setting webs. Rhyperior is the Stealth Rock user of choice on this team because it handles offensive fires like Salazzle and Zard while also putting out offensive pressure with Swords Dance. In need of a strong breaker we decided to add Choice Specs Gardevoir thanks to it being a great answer to fighting pokemon and steel-types being generally well handled on this build. Virizion an answer to ground-types such as opposing Rhyperior and it also takes on waters that can give this build issues. Lastly we decided to add Salazzle because it's a very strong offensive fire-type that's able to take on steels for the team. We also added it due to the aforementioned reason of it working good with the ability Illusion.
Thanks for the work on my team, Oathkeepre Loom and Mr AldoHere is your team HiddenPower23. I originally built a team around it but Loom built a better one thanks to the advice of MrAldo. So, here we go........
This is the mon you wanted first and foremost. Does well as a fighting and poison check to mons like Bewear, Vileplume, Virizion, and even Scrafty is predicted correctly. Gleam on Scrafty is a 2HKO however w/o a boosting item but that you can utilize with CM. I know you had requested Shadow Ball instead of Gleam but Gleam is better in the current meta due to Sharpedo, Scrafty, and other Darks being around. It can even hit Duraludon better than Psychic can. Scarf Passimian can bop it since Esp doesn't have Colbur here. Even U-turn is not nice to take. But you have teammates for that so here we go....
Your scarfer and 1 of your 2 ways to beat Steels like Steelix, Copperajah, Bronzong, and Escavalier. Standard set on Pass overall so not much else to go on here. You could go EQ > Rock Slide to bop Salazzle better but Rock Slide is a 2HKO anyway. Rock Slide also hits Skorch and Zard for OHKOs too. So yeah......keep Rock Slide.
Our beloved Manta Ray is back and doing what it does best. This is your defogger + fighting check + Toxic support all in one. Toxic is for opposing Waters that we got and any Grass types that you may come across since this set has no Flying STAB. You'll want to keep this thing's Boots as long as u can so please do so!
A nice little offensive presence for taking out the abundance of Waters that we now have like Jelli, Inteleon, Vap, Skewda, etc. Just be careful that you realize that this isn't your scarfer but a NP user and the said Waters have ways to beat this thing (save for a few of them). This is also 1/2 of your VoltTurn core with Passimian, so utilize that for what it is.
A secondary way to manhandle Steels and even a sneaky way to dispose of slower Waters thanks to its nice movepool. Fire Lash to drop the defense and then a subsequent Power Whip to bop them. It's also annoying to opposing teams when their items keep getting knocked off.
Last, but surely not least, is your rocker. This metal snake is built to take hits of all kinds as usual, except for the obvious ones that it doesn't (Fire, Ground, Fighting). It does also provide Toxic support as well. Heavy Slam is for the annoying Fairies that we have in Silvally, Comfey, Gardevoir, and Whimsicott among them. Body Press is the for opposing Steels thinking they're safe. You could forgo Toxic in favor of Iron Defense to give opposing teams nightmares when trying to deal with this physically.
Anyway, other than the suggestions I made, this team is solid as soon as I saw it and we hope you like it!
No problem man. Thanks for the teams.Flareblitzkreig

- Body SlamAt this stage of the meta Alolan exeggutor is a dragon that is pretty much outclassed tbh, which is unfortunate since just a couple of weeks ago it was actually very potent. OTR is the only set worth using here so the 2 teams are built to support it the best way we can by removing special walls by using the move I hate the most (yes I went there) plus hazards. Bother and trap pivotal mons that stop exeggutor like umbreon and go to town with it. Other dragons would probably be better but lets give the long neck its moment.Exeggutor-Alola @ Life Orb

hey, we appreciate that you have submitted a request to the teambuilding lab. unfortunately, as cincinno is unlisted in the ss ru post-dlc viability list, we have to reject this request.
feel free to re-submit a new request with something over cincinno, or with a completely new idea. as long as the mons requested are in the viability list thread: https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/ss-ru-viability-list-post-dlc.3666950/, we will be glad to work on the request!
Do you want something else built instead?Sorry, I forgot cinccino wasn't on that list. I believe it was on the viability rankings was pre-dlc? Thanks for the heads-up!
Yes, Maybe just remove Cinccino and use only Mowtom? Thanks!
