Sun team is going to be pretty broken with all the new protosynthesis abilities ngl
Flutter Mane
Base 135/135 Sp.Atk/Speed, run it with timid nature, choice specs AND in the sun, you got yourself 200/200 Sp.Atk/Speed mon. Not enough? Tera Fairy it, and even resisted hits are going to OHKO offensive mons, and Fairy/Ghost provides wonderful coverage. It's pretty much regieleki speed with specs kyogre damage
Quaquaval (unrelated to sun team but it's still broken)
Of course they're going to make the starters broken again, this time we have a dancing duck with 120/85 Atk/Speed. While it's not that good, it gets aqua step (80 bp, +1 speed) AND moxie AND SWORDS DANCE. Use SD on a mon it forces out, use aqua step once, and it'll start cleaning up on the rest of your opponent's team. btw It's also one of the only offensive spinners in ou as far as I'm concerned.
..Leafeon. (while tera blast is not banned at least)
I'd say it's a underrated sun team mon. It's not that viable in gen 8 because its sweep is ended once sun is gone, but now it gets Trail Blaze (50 bp, +1 speed) which is just Aqua Step but weaker. It can also Tera Rock to deal with Fire & Flying types with Tera Blast. Same deal as Quaquaval, one SD, one Trail Blaze, and it's off to sweep even when the sun goes out. Swept quite a few teams with it in SD
Roaring Moon
Base 139/119 Atk/Speed, it's just Flutter Mane but physical, and runs scarf instead of specs. Don't think I need to explain much anymore, just refer to Flutter Mane
Last but not least Torkoal.
Being the only and still the only one with Drought, it's like the most important member in a sun team. Same as gen 8, just the classic Stealth Rock Rapid Spin, good stuff.
That's all, in my opinion gen 9 is going to be mostly hyper offense since recovery moves nerf and all the setup sweepers and scald being avaliable to only 2 mons. Also like 90% of the mons gets spikes for some reason
(help how to make [pimg] work)
