Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Changes can be a leftover over black sludge for clod but having the latter helps if ever a Mon tricks it. Fire tera on meow can be changed but being burnt sucks when it's not that strong to begin with. Steel tera on tusk is admittedly nicer during the Chien Pao meta but it can tank some...
Covert gholdengo for Garg, Dragon tera corv to better rain MU and avoid getting trapped while retaining a decent number of resistances. Steel def tusk as just a role compressor
Water absorb in Clod for Rain MU and bug tera to resist ground and guarantee a toxic on something like great tusk or other counters, walled by air balloon gholdengos tho
Adamant CB Bax with Water tera so in lead matchups you ensure you'll get off at least one nuke. Unburnable. It's movepiol melts teams with no fairys or bulky waters. Glaive rush and Icicle Crash is just nutty, EQ for coverage and Ice shard for priority
Hey jam, Idk if you remember me but I've sent you multiple teams you used in your lives in gen 8 and I aim to do that again. CB Baxcalibur and Scarf Meowscarada

Hey aim, this is a banded assurance TTar team for when u and the boys wanted to play with something fun on your next collab. With rocks or spikes up, Assurance OHKOS offensive chomp, and does around 60% to spdef lando upon switch in while everything else is hit very hard. HP on tar is to better...
Sorry for the long post, i got carried away but yah, hope u get to use it on your own or with storm zone cus I really think this team can top the ladder with u guys. Feel free to give me feedback. Have a great one bruv!
Also vest zone is a good pivot into Lele in case u need corv for the physical attackers of the opponent. This team struggles with unaware calm mind clef hence the heavy alam on tar which isn't common. Ofc, UrshifuR is also a threat, actually fighting types in general are a threat to this team so...
I got the idea of offensive Alolan tales from your hail team. Moonblast ohkoes Urshifu R from full. Like u said freeze dry plus moonblast is good coverage. Veil usually makes the difference between a win or a loss. Gives set up for Volc,l. Helps ttar live longer and keep breaking. Pert and corv...
Ttar is a solid breaker like you said. Very hard to switch into. This spread let's it break as intended with an added utility of ghost resisting and tanking some special attacks especially under screens giving it the chance to come in and wreck it's counters especially if rocks r up
Pert serves as a blanket pivot to a lot of threats. Yawn makes the defoggers and sweepers that pert invites to think twice. Yawn + Flip turn is imo a potent way of generating momentum. If a grass comes in the flip to corv, if corv itself comes then go to zone. Just go to the best option.
This...
So some rationale.
Volc is often the wincon, it's terrifying behind screens but walled by heatran. So we'll use magnezone to trap it. I got the idea from a post in the lure thing here in the forum, changed the spread a bit to deal more damage to spdf corv and incoming ground types. Back to tran...
