:Tapu Lele: :Urshifu: :Nidoking: :Mandibuzz: :Tangrowth: :Heatran:

I started this team with Tapu Lele, Urshifu and Nidoking.

Urshifu-Rapid-Strike @ Protective Pads
Ability: Unseen Fist
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Aqua Jet
- U-turn
- Close Combat
- Surging Strikes

Urshifu lures in Toxapex, Tapu Fini, Buzzwole and maybe even Ferrothorn so Nidoking can deal damage.
Protective Pads for not get chipped by Rocky Helm, Iron Barbs, Rough Skin etc.
This is important as the team is weak to Weavile and Urshifu is my only decent check to it.

Nidoking (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Sheer Force
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Sludge Wave
- Earth Power
- Stealth Rock
- Flamethrower

Nidoking deals damage so that Lele can clean up late game.
Nidoking has great coverage to beat every steel type. I prefer running Stealth Rock on Nidoking as it threatens out a lot of common defoggers meaning it can safely get up Rocks while the Opponent predicts an attack. Even with Three Attacks, Nidoking is still a threat. Modest for extra power. The team is not that slow, so I don't need to run Timid.

Tapu Lele @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Psychic Surge
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Moonblast
- Psyshock
- Focus Blast
- Future Sight

While I personally think Specs Lele is wayy stronger, Scarf isn't that bad.
Lele has great match-ups with common fast Pokemon such as Dragapult, Kartana, and Weavile.
Future sight allows Urshifu to beat it's counter Toxapex as well as Buzzwole.

Mandibuzz (F) @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Overcoat
EVs: 248 HP / 108 Def / 152 SpD
Impish Nature
IVs: 24 Spe
- U-turn
- Roost
- Defog
- Foul Play

I chose Mandibuzz as my Defogger.
Mandibuzz is the best Ghost Resist as it's not weak to U-Turn and also has reliable recovery.
Standard Mandibuzz set except the extra speed evs were put into Phys. Def to make it more bulky.
24 ivs in Speed to guarantee a slow U-Turn vs uninvested Heatran.

Tangrowth @ Rocky Helmet
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Relaxed Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Giga Drain
- Knock Off
- Focus Blast
- Sleep Powder

Tangrowth is my Main Phys. Def Pokemon.
I chose it as it checks a lot of common Physical Attackers in the tier (Kartana, Urshifu, Zeraora, Garchomp - somewhat, Bisharp, Barraskewda and Rillaboom to name a few.
Putting Pokemon to sleep is useful as it gives me an oppurtunity to go to Mandi and Defog because Mandibuzz is quite passive otherwise.

Heatran @ Air Balloon
Ability: Flash Fire
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpD / 4 Spe
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Taunt
- Toxic
- Earth Power
- Magma Storm

I chose Heatran only because Aegislash didn't fit well on my team.
I like that it can defeat Toxapex for Urshifu but that's pretty much it.
Air balloon over leftovers because opposing Heatran is a massive problem to my team.

I'm not too fond of this team. It's quite weak and it's also not Bulky Offense, which is my personal playstyle.
If you could give me improvements, that'll be appreciated
