Basic Volt-Turn team with specs alolan eggy as a breaker. Inci+Steelvally cover exeggutors weakness to ice while also providing momentum. Steelvally also provides a solid form of hazards control. Passimian provides some speed control while also giving momentum with u-turn. Rhydon is the stealth rocker in the team and Decidueye is the soft fighting resist that can also do massive damage to common defensive cores.

This is a bulky-offensive team that I built around the beginning of NU Open; I used it first against Robjr in this game, but I have also used it in various smaller tours since then. At the start of NU Open and when Gigalith got banned, I did a lot of thinking about metagame trends and determined that Specs Exeggutor-Alola was a really good pick in the metagame as it outran a vast majority of Pokemon on bulkier cores with some Speed investment and it had no real counters in the metagame. I expanded on Exeggutor-Alola's rise in viability here, but essentially I feel that it is a great metagame pick as a breaker and it works exceedingly well with U-turn or Volt Switch support. This team takes a fairly standard backbone (Xatu, Steelix, and Pivot Incineroar) and pairs it with the best revenge killer in the metagame, Scarf Passimian, to support Exeggutor-Alola. In addition, Samurott finds its way on as a second fast Incineroar check and a synergetic hard special hitter. Usually, you could see Clawitzer or something else take its place, but on this team specifically I certainly prefer Samurott for the extra Speed and Taunt. Overall, this is one of my favorite teams to play, I have had a lot of success with it, and I encourage everyone to give it a try!

Standard bulky offense revolving around Specs Aloan Eggy and pretty self-explanatory. BroLix + SD Incineroar as a backbone covers Eggy's various weaknesses whilst providing the team rocks, a Fairy, Ice and Fighting-resist as well as a secondary breaker. Colbur Rotom is soft Fighting-resist and arguably the premier hazard remover in the tier, Scarf Passimian provides necessary speed control and an offensive pivot that brings in your breakers. The speed on Eggy-A is customizable, 164 speed is for vapo although you could run only as much as required to creep Pivot Incineroar, although it ultimately boils down to which spread you prefer.
