Mega staraptor and dragalge have a lot of inherit synergy, they are both bulky megas at opposite speed tiers that do a lot of damage and are useful even in their base forms. Therefore I made a team around them.
Dragalge, staraptor and incin are all self explanetory. Farig is a tr setter with roar and priority block making it a good counter for other staraptors and sinistcha is a tr setter with rage powder and matcha gotcha so it can stop swampert.
Corv is an odd set but I didn't want it to do the exact same thing as staraptor and I needed another somewhat fast pokemon so it doesn't end up being hard tr.
Out of these pokemon I am most unsure abt keeping curse on sinistcha, its a remenant of my old team and could be protect or shadow ball but curse is still useful sometimes. I'd rather use something like araquanid over corv tbh, but I don't want the team to be too sluggish.
Any other suggestions are open and while life orb farig might seem off it hits so freaking hard and is the only way to make farig feel rly powerful without throat spray
