Clawitzer Terrain Pulse Team Help | Pokémon Champions

i tried to make a team around clawitzer's terrain pulse, since it seemed really strong on paper. for this i wanted two terrain options, which i picked to be electric since its easy to bring on the field with raichu-X, and psychic, since I've seen expanding force doing some good damage. in order to make use of expanding force i picked hatterene as another damage dealer and to set the psychic terrain. farigiraf protects against priority attacks and can set trickroom when needed (clawitzer is pretty slow, hatterene is extremely slow, enemies may tailwind to outspeed raichu). outside of trickroom i planned to redirect attacks away from clawitzer with rage powder or follow me. in the end i chose sinistcha with follow me. and since i had a trickroom plan anyway and i wanted a strong mega threat outside of raichu and also a physical attacker since my team seemed to special-sided who also shouldn't be flying so they can benefit from the terrain, i picked mawile to round up the team. clawitzer has aura sphere as coverage over dark pulse or dragon pulse since mawile already has dark moves and i wanted to keep opponent dark mons in check. farigiraf is build to survive kow cleave and another similar strong physical attack so it can set up trick room. hatterene is build to survive sneeslers dire claw and still set up psychic terrain (except when sneezler has life orb, then hatterene cant be saved). other than that i think the movepool and EVs of my pokemon are pretty basic. i am trying out this team in low masterball rank but it isn't doing as well as i hoped so id like to know if there's something that can be improved. here is the rental code: 0E8GJ3WJA3

Optimizing VGC Teams: Crawdaunt Strategies & TR Builds

Ah yes, while Mr. Craw has been a singles wallbreaker for ages, some random lobster has come to take the same place but in VGC.

I wanna find a mega that fits on this team, some changes to the other member's sets or replacements too while I'm at it.

Mega Gengar VGC Team Building Guide & Strategy

For a few days, I've been scratching my head over who should i slot in for the last 2 party member spaces for this team that involves Mega Gengar's shadow tag to create unfavorable situations that my opponent is forced to play against and allow the partner pokemon to take knockouts easily (Primarily Kommo-o). Ideally, the last 2 team members should enable me an alternate gameplan if Mega Gengar does not work whether that be via a secondary mega or just 2 usual pokemon.
