Build a Strong VGC Doubles Team with Your Mons
Before anything, i want to clarify that i already hit master ball with a slightly different version of this team, but now i want to perfect it for the path going forward to champions tier and to use it in a future tournament I'm planning to participate in.
I wanted to invest some speed on M-Mawille so she can outspeed max speed garchomp under tailwind, of course at the cost of losing some attack and hp points, but since she gets a boost with her ability when mege i didn't see a problem. Also, i changed her ability from Hyper cutter to intimidate. Reason being is so she can survive an earthquake from garchomp and provide a counter to physical attackers in general, Hyper cutter was to prevent her being intimidated but i think she will still hit hard when mega. (Haven't tested so i cant know for sure)
Finally the last change i did was to replace sinistcha with volcarona. Because i didn't bring sinistcha to matches that much cause of general bad matchup for him and sometimes he didn't offer much to the game besides the healing and the redirection plus being a grass offer some coverage for switching. Not saying it was bad, but most times i didn't want to open with it because i lost the healing and it's not that good offensive. So I chose Volcarona for his good defensive stats, it also offers redirection and is a second tailwind settler with a good offensive power, given me a fire coverage to deal with annoying mons like kingambit. That way i can open with him plus Mawille, with flame body and rage powder it can deal with physical attackers that treat Mawille and can set tailwind, so i don't need to depend on peli for it.
I would like to hear some feedback, if there are changes i could or should do on the moves, stats, ability or even another mons to use to make the team more solid. Also i want to know any treat i didn't see that can counter the team and overall opinion on the team.

If you have need of a pokemon and no one has been able to get you one, list it here for me. I am off work Monday and Tuesday and can collect a copy of the mons you need. I will not grind out floette eternal. Everything else I should be able to get a copy of. Once I have your Mon I will ping you so you can trade me for it.

A gravity team built around Mega Scol. However I find myself only really bringing scol to specific matchups. Anything anyone would tweak? It doesn’t feel inconsistent just missing something that would make it click.
idk what to add for the 5th and 6th pokemon.
Want to try mega mawile for a change, came up with this haven’t played matches yet.
Team: https://pokepast.es/cef9d5b78b12811e
Which team is better for master ball tier and below of course fun comes from winning so please ping me if you can

Basicaly I am new to Pokemon Champions
and require help in setting up team
I am running a dual sun and sand team but i don't know any matchups like when should I use sand team I am good with sun team but can anyone tell me when to use sand team?
Or if there is any better team than my current one
I have only played DS and gameboy games before no switch games so i don't have access to pokemon home
So im trying to make the 2 best Hoenn megas work but I feel like something is missing.
I wanna try and keep both megas and with rain it feels good to being Overquill. He might be overkill though i might chamge him to a poison greif set instead with barb barrage and spikes 😁
Im thinking about dropping Arch but hes useful for Staraptor match ups.
Any ideas yall?
2.Scovillian Starts with speed boosted by chlorophy , hitting insane damaged fire moves and leaf storms to ko the other mons.(white herb)
3.Talonflames comes full support with tailwind and feather dance using gale wings , flare blitz and u turn for chip damage.(focus sash)
4.Staraptor comes to sweep the opponents with contrary of mega staraptor boosting attacking by two stages by feather dance of talonflame ( mega stone)
im winning 95 percent of my matches with this in my doubles , someone rate my team and give some improvements.

Ask for help
Can yall suggest some good teams(staraptor or delphox of example)
I'm kinda overwheled by all the mons I have
(Also have sinistcha if it's useful in any teams)
(No move sets and other details for now just need some team suggestions)
A friend of mine has told me that M Dragalge has potential so i tried making a team around it.
For now i have this concept, i haven't definedall of the SPs, but the whole idea is that Dragalge tries to use Draco Meteor, and then Flip turn, using its 132 Special attack while also using regenerator by flip turn, which also resets its stat drops.
I added Rotom-W bc typewise it has amazing synergy with Dragalge, mainly that Rotom-W is good into Ice and Ground types, while dragalge is GOATED into grass types.
I then added Scizor + Kingambit for revenge killers that can follow up after Dragalge uses DM + Flip turn.
Sinistcha is here because i needed speed control but also because the team is that tanky. I have Shadow Ball for now so that sinistcha can be more active inside trick room.
Gyarados is here because of intimidate support, and also because i wanted something that can be a little bit faster and sweep, hence the DD
Its probably not the best team but for now it may work, i am looking for recomendations, what are some great Dragalge partners, and is my team too passive?
Hi
I need to change something in this team because I feel like it is not enough to climb up the ranks.
Are there any recommendations for my current team? Any changes that you can suggest?
Thank you
PS: Below are the pics of my team and the available pokemon that I have. I can still do some recruitment but my tickets are running low.
there!
these are my current pokemon, what can i use to make a good team with mega froslass? Im mainly gonna use it for singles but idm using it for double battles too. If you can help, id be really grateful
I want to build a team that functions well in and out of trick room and also is not obviously a trick room team at team preview. Obvious trick room would be something like farigaraf, crabominable, and kingambit, so shouldn’t be obvious picks. I already have most of the team picked out, I just need help figuring out how to build each member and who specifically to make the trick room setter.
Team currently consists of:
Hatterene
Armarouge
Metagross
Kingambit
The pokemon I’m considering adding are kangaskhan, tyranitar, grimmsnarl, whimsicott, hydrapple, and dragapult.
Of course I know not all of these are exactly good picks but they’re what I have available right now, plus are kind of what I’m looking for because the lack of usage may throw opponents off.
And when I say “semi-trick room” I mean that no matter the team comp in each battle, it can function well both in and out trick room.
So which two(of the listed pokemon I’m considering) would be the best additions to the team and what are some good builds/build plans(or roles, tank, damage, support, etc) for a few of the pokemon on the team.
And of course I’m not asking to have the whole team built for me, if I was going to do that I’d just ask chatgpt or something.
I’ve been using this team for a bit and I’ve not sure what to change. Please don’t recommend kingambit, gholdengo, incin, or sneasler
I'm woring on a mega staraptor based team with the second mega being raichu y, I have run it through simulations and found out the only mon that poses a threat is another raichu y to the straptor as with whimsi using fake tears on star it still doesn't survive a base zap cannon, I've been looking for better mons for this team and this is the final result, any pointers on how i can tweak this?
