Thanks to Mishimono for providing this week's team, here's what he had to say about the first five members:

This is a team I had built around Diancie+Volcarona. I added Landorus-T as the next mon since I use it on like every team and it helps check stuff like Kang, Diancie and opposing Lando. I added Ferrothorn next since I had 3 water weaks and I think its good to have a steel-type on every team. Thundurus worked well as the next mon as I wanted something else that could beat Talon and Lando.

But what's their last? Submissions close Friday November 11 at 11:59pm EST!
 
Swampert @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Torrent
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 SpD
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Muddy Water
- Earth Power
- Ice Beam
- Wide Guard


This mon is my pick for Guess the Last. I feel like a strong Lando check really rounds out this team. Volc and Diancie will appreciated the wide guard support. swampert add missing coverage with good typing and bulk

Conkeldurr @ Lum Berry
Ability: Iron Fist
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 Def
Brave Nature
- Drain Punch
- Mach Punch
- Ice Punch
- Wide Guard

The team is without a doubt vulnerable to spread moves, so Wide Guard would definitely help out a lot. Ice Punch (-1) OHKO's Landorus-T and priority Mach Punch (at most 2) should take care of Kang and Heatran. Being a threat against Semi-TR is a sure fire, too, perhaps allowing Thundurus to use Taunt while Conkeldurr pressures the Fake Out user.
 
Hydreigon @ Life Orb
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA /252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Draco Meteor
- Dark Pulse
- Earth Power
- Protect

Dragons are good, let's add a dragon. The team has a gigantic heatran weakness between ferro and volc, hydrei adds a fire resist and a pretty reliable earth power. Also, the team needs a volcanion switchin, which hydrei does because dragons. Hydrei also adds a second aegi/jirachi check and second levitator for lando to eq next to.
 
Clearly we need wide guard and ideally another mon that lando can EQ next to it. Going with these restrictions we get an excellent choice.
PELIPPER!
Basically it gives good typing for the team with a water stab which is nice for countering Heatran. Tailwind can be good as it allows Pelipper to out speed stuff like base 110 and 111 once set, allowing it to put pressure on things like mega Diancie, sash Gengar and Terrakion as examples.

Pelipper @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Rain Dish
EVs: 252 HP / 136 Def / 4 SpA / 72 SpD / 44 Spe
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Scald
- Wide Guard
- Tailwind

its clear the answer is a wide guarding water
so im gonna put alomomola on it

Fishy (Alomomola) @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 40 HP / 252 Def / 216 SpD
Bold Nature
- Wide Guard
- Heal Pulse
- Mirror Coat
- Scald

avoids 2hko jolly kangaskhan return
and 3hko from lando eq which you can also wide guard

spread also survives bulky thundy t bolt and zard y solarbeam and mirror coats them for OHKO. earth power fran almost never 3HKOs it

Heal Pulse onto quiver dancing volcarona is really good because you can eventually just tank out stuff like Heatran and Volcanion that are supposed to wall it. With the HP and SpDef increase and u just ignore heatran and KO it with other stuff later lol

Scald burns and breaks tran sub, alternatively you can use helping hand because it probably does more damage than scald lol
 
Obviously the answer is a wide guard water type but I opted for something with more offensive presence than Alo or Pelipper even though these are fine choices. Carracosta was a fine looking pokemon but not quite what I was looking for. So Kingler is the obvious choice

Kingler @ Life Orb
Ability: Hyper Cutter
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Adamant / Jolly Nature
- Crabhammer
- Knock Off
- Wide Guard
- Protect

Kingler provides good offensive presence with its powerful Crabhammer and has excellent utility in Knock Off. Wide Guard shields allies from powerful spread options and protect is protect.

Time to vote! Was their last...

n1n1's Swampert
Test Bot #'s Conkeldurr
Yellow Paint's Hydreigon
FloristtheBudew's Pelipper
marilli's Alomomola
miltankmilk's Kingler
Matame's Mantine

Surprised no one nominated Neviathan tbh. Voting closes Sunday, November 13th at 11:59pm EST!
 
Well that's a fantastic ending to a project if I've ever seen one. Congrats to marilli for winning with relevant mon Alomomola.
As for the actual last:
Keldeo @ Life Orb
Ability: Justified
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Hydro Pump
- Secret Sword
- Protect
- Quick Guard

Lastly I added Keldeo as it could support the rest of the team by providing another Landorus check, helping Volcarona with Quick Guard and beating threats like Kyurem-B, Hydreigon and Kangaskhan.

We'll be going on a break until Gen 7 settles for a little bit, but thanks to all of you for keeping this project going for 16 great "week"s!
