I built this team because I hate zard y and floette and I think this counters them okay. I have final gambit ape for archaludon and maushold to cover for last respects weakness. I have dual wind setters but I’m wondering if that’s excessive given my team isn’t slow at baseline. any feedback would be much appreciated

Two of your megas are weak to ground and one of them will 100% take a ground attack and yet you have 0 way to deal super effective damage to them, having immunities is great too but, what exactly is Annihilape doing here? You benefit from the redirection but having a water or grass type would be great here
