SUPER SPECS
I built this team around specs diancie + eggy which is a NUKE core. The idea of this team is to basically destroy something everytime one of these get a switch-in. miltank is my rocker and also checks incin, Vanilliux, and helps to ease the bro match-up. pass is glue scarfer which helps kill/ revenge kill and u-turns to get in a threat. toge is support wish passer and checks special attackers such as whims, ice cream, and other friends. it does well with checking those and also wish passes to eggy or diancie so they can start nuking again. and xatu to block rocks / be my fighting resist. Overall a pretty fun and neat team to use overall and personally one of my favorites to have fun with. :afrostar:

HO around BD Zangoose. Adamant because power and if you're going with Belly Drum, you're all about power. Shadow Claw so you don't get Colbur'd. Sneasel traps Ghosts, Whimsi provides setup - Infiltrator to outmeme Incineroar and Sneasel. Taunt is for something, Garbodor I guess so Xatu isn't under too big of a strain, also something else but can't remember what. Xatu provides non passive hazard control with Toxic for Comfey, also chips Passimian so it's in range of +6 QA. Rhydon is the Incineroar check with Roar for BU Braviary.

And finally, Togedemaru. Choice Scarf so I can outrun Helio and U-turn on him when I take 40 from Surf, checks Comfey and is faster than Passimian. This is particularly useful when the Xatu is dead so I can sack 2+ Pokemon and then skillfully revenge or cry when they go Lix. Nuzzle so I can paralyze stuff and bank on the 10% chance I set up with Zang.

Ik this is very similar to the team Go0d posted, but i made this a while ago. Yoshi can corroborate this, i was gonna post the team when you had to build around exeg-a, but i finally didn't have the time to post and yoshi forgot to post the team on behalf of me.

Passi baits Water-Types such as slowbro to come in and switch into exeguttor with U-turn. Sneal removes those Xatus trying to switch into passi and exeguttor's stab attacks. Xatu + Togedemaru is the defensive backbone and I put offensive diancie as my rocker with Fairium since i was lacking a Z-move user and it can be a good lure sometimes. You could change Diancie to Rhydon, but I haven't done that because you would be a lot weaker to fighting (your only fighting answer would be xatu, at least diancie can deal with fighting-types) and you would also lose the Z-move user. This would give you another Incineroar check tho, which is cool because I'm kinda weak to it. Pretty solid team overall, it does well in most matchups outside of other Sneasel + Passimian matchups and SD Incin ones, altho this one is handable if you play passimian well.

Idk if its intentional or an import mistake, but your Togedemaru's ability is Iron Barbs. I like the team though

Yeah, you are right, thanks! I used the team in nul against Blast and had the same problem, I didn't notice I put Iron barbs Toge until I was playing haha, I forgot to change it after that, but I already fixed the pokepast.

*cough cough* that seems very familiar chocapic eater user
 
Grats on Chokepic for winning Round 14!
Round 15: Seismitoad
seismitoad.gif

I feel like this pick comes as no surprise to anyone; since it was reintroduced into the tier, I thought it would be cool to see people build with it!
Deadline is (10 / 12 / 18)
Have fun :toast:!​
 


So here it is a team i made inmediatly after seeing seismitoad dropped back. Really good defensive core with seismitoad+plume, with spdef wish phox to give the team more sustain but also another strong answer to threads such as ice cream or eggy A, specs diancie to hit as strong as it can, brav bu with fightinium (w/defog cuz the team needed Hazard control) and sneasel to trap things or do a lot of dmg

Had already built this team before Toad dropped as I wanted to abuse an underrated threat in Vivillon, having Torterra + AV Slowbro over the core of Toad + Plume. I prefer this iteration as I feel this pair generally cover a larger portion of the metagame alongside Steelvally to help check Ice Cream and other miscellaneous stuff like Specs Whimsicott, Sneasel, and opposing Vivillon. Specs Heliolisk is broken and Scarf Passimian is splashable and helps offensively check Big Cat. Stuff like SubToxic Delphox can definitely be still annoying but for the most part I think this team covers most of the meta.

this team originally had a sash kadabra on it
then i did 37% to an assault vest slowbro with shadow ball..
team is now appropriately named "FUCK KADABRA LOL"

this is just some standard balanced shit from the master of balanced builds himself lol
physdef toad + spdef plume checks a good portion of the tier reliably, with ice type insurance in incineroar here to fill in the major gap. I ran with rotom as my defogger since its imo the best in the tier and provides me with a flying resist. passimian was easy to splash here and gave me an incineroar + other annoying mons revenge killer. comfey takes kadabra's place to give me the most polarizing wincon in the tier. it also gives the team some priority which is always appreciated.

Offensive Seismitoad with Grass Knot to lure opposing Seismitoad so Klinklang has an easier time sweeping. Hydro Pump and Timid nature lets you beat Xatu, so you can get rocks up and get rid of a fighting resist for Passimian. Xatu Switches into Steelix more consistently than Offensive Seismitoad. I prefer Flare Blitz on Incineroar to have a better match-up vs Comfey. Heliolisk Lures Seismitoad, Steelix, Torterra, and Palosand; basically everything that walls Klinklang.

Started off with Typhlosion because all it can do is click Eruption so it's not that hard to use. Modest because a) it still outspeeds Passimian aka the only relevant scarfer (fuck Delphox/random Heliolisk) and b) I want to do >4 to other stuff. Next up is a classic Xatu with U-turn so I dont lose momentum, I have Typhlosion to do that. Seismitoad came next because it's splashable as hell and blocks Volt Switch. Knock Off for random Golbats cause I hate them, also does an ok chunk to Dhelmise and Ground STAB isn't mandatory on this imo. Vileplume is the Helio and Comfey answer. Growth in the last slot cause it demolishes Bat-less stall and hits decently hard after a boost. CB Sneasel comes next to kill off Xatu, Cryogonal and other frail shit and soften up teams for Typh to clean + it has priority (otherwise I get boned by Power Gem/Solar Beam/Acrobatics Grassium Minior so some countermeasures are needed). Last is broken Electivire - it checks BU Braviary and PuP into Z EQ kills Steelix, Rhydon, Diancie and does 65 to physdef Seismitoad (!!!). A really cool breaker and fsr everyone acts like you're using AV.
