so this is my first ever team that I have been using for abit now, but it always felt incomplete.
What the team is meant to be is a Perish trap team that I can pivot to a rain team, Mega Gengar is the centre of this team he is meant to lockdown a Pokémon in the field to maybe perish song or too help me win the weather war. They are also built to kill Pokémon that my team might struggle with such as Sinitea, a slow basculgeon, mega frosslass and other.
Politoad is here to help the team out like setting perish up while Gengar is just trying to survive, switching in to it so it tanks the move, set up rain so that we stop Charizard Y and Venu or tyranitar and steelix, and do some damage when it get the chance to.
Primarina is here to counter pokemom my other Pokémon struggle against such as garchomp, kommo-o, Charizard when we’re in the rain, and is pretty much our rain sweeeper and with the Welp of Gengar we can stop Pokémon from switching in and out an KO them.
Kommo-o is a set up sweeper who is here to deal with kinggambit, garchomp, and other we have two other Pokémon to him set up
Sneasler / Sinitea, this two are here to counter and help support the team, such as Sinitea healing kommo-o when he user that one move and help Gengar stay alive during the perish tik down. Now sneasler is here to threaten Pokémon with fake out in the start of a match, and maybe killing kinggambit, Charizard y and floette who my other Pokémon my struggle against.

But as I said this Pokémon team seems incomplete, so I would love advice to improve this team.
Srry for the bad explaining and bad photos
I forgot the pictures
Maybe incin over sneasler?
K
But what should I run on incin .
Cuz I have never used it before
Wait I'll give you my set

Incineroar @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Intimidate
Level: 50
EVs: 30 HP / 2 Atk / 10 Def / 20 SpD / 4 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Fake Out
- Flare Blitz
- Taunt
- Parting Shot
Use another item aside from sitrus and throat chop over flare blitz
Ok
Ima try later
Kommo o should be soundproof
Idk if anyone else pointed that out
I think he might have just forgotten to change that
I def did
Have any recommendations on what item to use
The water resist berry would be my first choice
Although you'd have 3 berries
Eh
chople or sitrus
incin is here to parting shot cycle gengar back in and maintain the lock
I said the water berry bcause like basc is rly threatening
yeah it is but basc is aiming for gengar here
turn cycle looks like, mega+perish song+fake out,protect+protect,swap out gengar+parting shot and bring gengar back in, protect protect to finish out
may be interested in swapping primarina for starmie
yes you lose spam
but you gain water wall that knows flip turn and skill swap
Rotom wash could be interesting too
Screenz + volt switch for pivot

Lemm try this team out lwk
What does skip swap do again ?
I lwk forgot and I can’t check rn
use it to steal shadow tag from gengar
Oh
K
Yeah ima try Starmie in casuals first for abit to see how it goes
better defensive typing. allows you to extend the trap in the face of eq users
K
Any idea on what item I should have my Sini hold

And on incin ?
What moves should I run on Politoad ?
