Overview:
SS LC has not been kind in terms of teambuilding, with several archetypes such as Sun and Veil dominating an entire era of its own before being banned out of the tier. This team was initially built during the Sun meta, with several changes to account for meta shifts. The idea behind the team was to build a fun, sorta anti meta team that utilized several underrated mons and/or sets. The superstar of the team is definitely Stunky, an underrated breaker with various strengths. Staying with the “Nature” theme, the mon I chose to pair with Stunky is Mudbray, who is able to shore up Stunky’s weaknesses and provide a secondary breaker and win condition for the team. Next came Cutiefly, a mon that I view as the best mon in the tier and is able to supplement an entire Webs archetype by itself. Moving on Vullaby and Corphish were added to provide a pivot and priority to take advantage of Stunky’s offensive capabilities. Lastly, Ferroseed was slapped onto the team to provide a defensive anchor to several glaring weaknesses in the team.

Mudbray is the complementary piece to Stunky. I opted for a more offensive option, utilizing Choice Scarf to eliminate Mudbray’s mediocre speed and surprise opposing threats. Scarf Mudbray is able to outspeed notably diglett, ponyta, wingull, and cutiefly, who are prominent threats to Stunky and the team and take them out. The set is generally the same as Eviolite Mudbray with Earthquake as STAB, Heavy Slam to nuke Cutiefly, and Rock Slide to hit flying types like Vullaby and Rufflet. Close Combat was chosen as the last move to KO Munchlax, a mon that would pose a threat to Stunky.
