I'll start off the teambuilding with a doubles team based around Purrloin and Frillish, which I'm calling Rescue Cats.
Turns out Scarf Frillish is really good in doubles, and I figured it'd be a good idea to base a team around it. I mentioned how good Purrloin seems on paper in the Doubles Metagame thread, stating that it would be around Tier 3 due to its access to quite a few pretty great moves, such as Fake Out, Knock Off, Copycat and Fake Tears while being pretty decently bulky with Eviolite. So it worked quite nicely when paired with Frillish due to softening checks that would otherwise take Water Spouts. Copycat is also anti Trick Room Support, as you can use it again yourself the following turn to cancel it out due to its low priority.
Intimidate is much better in doubles than singles, so I brought Litten due to its 17 speed tier, plus removing grass types that would wall Frillish. Having a second Fake Out user is also pretty alright, and Will-o support means the opponent can't hit back as hard. Gastly was chosen because of Fake Tears supporting it as well as covering one of Frillish's main threats, Grookey . Vullaby was helpful for a variety of reasons, namely that Tailwind support is invaluable, Knock Off weakens opponents for Gastly and Frillish, and Vull covers both Grookey and Pawniard , Frillish's main threats. Finally, because I have two Ground immunities, I thought to use Mudbray due to its great physical attack and covering Pawniard.
In total, Frillish Gastly and Mudbray are my offense, with Vullaby, Litten, and Purrloin being the support. The goal of the team is to remove the opposing Water and Ground Resists (Such as Grass types which are threatened by Vullaby and Litten) while preventing the opponent from controlling speed via 2 Scarf mons, Vullaby's Tailwind, and Purrloin's Copycat. This is a really fun team to play with, so hopefully you have the same amount of fun I'm having with it.
