M Venusaur + M Aerodactyl Team Review

quickivory-77 OP

In Reg MA, i made a M Venusaur team, abusingits amazing matchups into meta threats by pairing it with partners that could deal with Psychic and Flying Types.
But now, in Reg MB, with Staraptor, i needed to rework my team, and i switched from a trick room centered team, i chose a Tailwind based M Aerodactyl team.

I want to know if there's anything i could optimise or change.
Incineroar has taunt because if not Trick Room destroys me.

The team is mainly Bulky Offense, using Twind to compensate in Speed.

M Venusaur, Rotom-W, Incineroar is main core, and Gholdengo is here because its incredible into Staraptor.

Just read this

i spent so much time making calcs for so many interactions i forgot to add the item

Venu could use ingrain or leech seed for more staying power. Incin could use a dark move over taunt, but those are just suggestions. Garchomp NEEDS dragon claw. Otherwise, you look fine

quickivory-77 OP

I really like 3 attack Venusaur as Epower makes my matchup into rain far better, because it threatens arch and gambit.
I chose Taunt cause this team would suck into TR otherwise
I have another Garchomp set, its white herb scale shot stomping tantrum, but that doesnt match the team. maybe i drop stomping by Dclaw cause i have 2 inmunities to EQ

quickivory-77 OP

I also think Leech seed is too passive for my liking

quickivory-77 OP

already put Dclaw

I'd love to get a benchmarks breakdown before I commentate

For the evs

I would not drop stomping for claw here actually, it's fine

quickivory-77 OP

i dropped Dclaw and its better honestly i have 2 inmunities to EQ Anyway so i can manage it.

Garchomp i smade to take opposing garchomp's Dclaw, if the Garchomp doesnt have an attack boosting item, its fast enough to catch non timid 100 speed mons like Charizard Y and Gardevoir.

Aerodactyl was made to 1 point faster than base aerodactyl while doing just the right amount of damage to OHKO non boosted M staraptor if it goes 32 hp 2 def. I need the adamant nature for that.
The bulk is so that it can take two aqua jets from non mystic water/LO Basculegion which helps me wit avoiding revenge kills. It can also take a Staraptor CC even if 32+

M Venusaur can take a M Aerodactyl Dwingbeat if Jolly . It is modest and enough SP in SpA to reach the Stat Bump. i gave the rest into Special defense but 1 because i want to break speed ties with opposing M Venusaur.

A similar reasoning goes for the rest but i dont remember them all i just remember that Incin is 1 point faster than M Staraptor in Twind, something similar with Gholdengo and Dragapult.

quickivory-77 OP

oh wait its true the garchomp was the old one ohhhhh

quickivory-77 OP

its 3 defense not 3 hp
