Wait I was under the impression that deadline wasn’t over yet. My opponent missed our first time so we rescheduled to 10pm -4 tonight

:terrakion: :choice_scarf:, :steelium_Z:, Outspeeds Shell Smashers except Minior. Close Combat hits all Pokemon for at least neutral damage.
:carracosta: Shell Smash, Sturdy with Heavy-Duty Boots give it at least one uncontested action. Powerful priority with Aqua Jet. :steelium_z: OHKOs Cradily, :groundium_z: and :waterium_z: possible options too.
:cradily: Storm Drain, can check shell smashers such as Omastar, Giga Drain improves its longevity and makes it threatening.
:diancie-mega: Is immediately threatening and can force switches, outspeeds the metagame when paired with Sticky Web, support sets such as Encore were explored to deal with Curse users and passive Pokemon.
:kabutops: Can pivot its team mates safely with Flip Turn. Access to priority in Aqua Jet to threaten opposing sweepers and Superpower to remove Cradily makes it a strong option for Monothreat.
:stakataka: Strong Trick Room user that can turn the tables against the generally fast Pokemon used in these battles. It struggles to setup though due to the copious amounts of Close Combats, Body Presses, and Earthquakes thrown around.
:regirock: Iron Defense-Body Press sets are extremely threatening due to the lack of Special Attackers in Rock Monothreat.
:aerodactyl-mega: Dragon Dance sweeper with enough coverage (Iron Head, Earthquake) to threaten all Rock-type Pokemon. Forces switches too, so Substitute is an option.
:nihilego: / :omastar: Special attacker, which is rare for Rock teams. Nihilego is much more immediately threatening, while Omastar has to Shell Smash to ensure it doesn't get revenge-killed next turn. Doesn't help that Cradily can tank a +2 Ice Beam from Omastar and OHKO it with Giga Drain though.

| 24   | Talonflame         |    1 |   1.79% |   0.00% |
| 24   | Swoobat            |    1 |   1.79% |   0.00% |
:thundurus-therian: Bolt-Beam combination in HP Ice and STAB Thunderbolt makes it a force to be reckoned with. Agility, Nasty Plot sets were explored as it forces too much switches.
:landorus-therian: Is Neutral to Stone Edge, allowing it to safely check Mega Aerodactyl, Physical Celesteela, and opposing Landorus-T in a pinch. Also sets Stealth Rocks to weaken the opposing team.
:celesteela: This can do anything. Autotomize sets with a Physical or Special set is sure to threaten opposing teams, with :firium_z: and :rockium_z: allowing it to nuke opposing Celesteela in a pinch. Unfortunately gets outsped and OHKO'ed by Choice Scarf Thundurus-T even at +2.
:aerodactyl-mega: Dragon Dance sweeper with Ice Fang, Fire Fang, and Stone Edge to threaten all Flying-types.
:dragonite: Bolt-Beam combination in Thunder Punch and Ice Punch allows it to clean late-game. Is quite slow, but Multiscale allows it to setup most of the time. Extreme Speed allows it to pick off threats such as Thundurus-T.
:zapdos: / :articuno: Have enough bulk to withstand the Bolt-Beam combinations, and can retaliate with their STABs accordingly. Articuno's access to Ice Shard allows it to pick off threats, while Zapdos can threaten opposing teams with HP Ice and Thunderbolt combination.
:corviknight: Outclassed by Celesteela as an immediately threatening setup sweeper, but can perform as a defensive Pokemon that checks Mega Aerodactyl. It can use a Bulk Up-Agility-Power Trip set, though.
