Best Mega Scrafty Team Builds | Pokémon VGC Strategy

What is a good teams for scrafty
Made it to master ball with this team! It is a lot of fun & a little cheesy 🧀🧀.
The goal is to set trick room with oranguru & then use instruct to farm flinches or double drop bombs. There is a noticeable lack of protect. My goal is to last long enough to set trick room twice with Guru. If that happens I feel I have a pretty good chance at victory.
Abundant Rock Slide > for charizard y/pelliper teams & the surprising amount of double flinches it yields with instruct.
Solar Beam > need for mega swampert. Also has come in handy against a lot of Bascu.
Body Press > even without defense EV , hits quite hard with Torkoal base defense. Has K.O. a lot of maushold & Kanga on my climb.
Non mega Gorlurk iron fist build > I like Drain punch being a 1hko bomb that restores my health bar. I ran mega for awhile in Ultra Ball and did not like it.
So my biggest question would be WHERE on this hyper offense trick room team would YOU like to see Protect?
Next question is where could I go to learn how to optimize the EV's on my specific team?
Favorite way to run the team that took me to master ball :
Oranguru / Hatterne
Mawile / Torkoal
Set trick room turn 1. Bait into attacking hatterne with DG pressure, instructed on turn 2.
Once Hatterne is k.o. bring in torkoal to consecutive instructed eruptions or mawile to cleanup. Sucker punch saved for the turn trick room ends unless needed.
Saw the synergy Maushold + Annihilape has, as well as Coaching Sneasler + Ceruledge, and remembered seeing a while ago that while building teams in low power formats, it can help to think of Duos, 2 pokemon who together can Run Wild, so I decided to put the four of them on a team together
However I'm having trouble figuring out what the final duo should be. I tested aero and floette, and I didn't like the feel of it. they're strong together, but they didn't click with the team the way I'd like them to. Currently, with the 4 mon core, the team suffers heavy weaknesses to flying, psychic, and ground. (ghost too but with maushold and follow me it's less of an issue) so I need a good duo that can fill the back of whatever I bring, or be the lead, and that ideally are good answers to those 4 types.
Obv Dark types come to mind since I'm struggling with psychic and ghost defensively, but the problem is the two main dark types in the format, incin and gambit, both amplify the already glaring ground weakness. I thought about something like eelektross and corviknight, these two help with flying and ground, and corv resists electric, but the two just don't really click together the way I'd like
I was running Ice Punch on Annihilape for while as a ground answer, but honestly I wasn't feeling it and I like the guaranteed crit from storm throw to get around bulky set up pokemon

I can change everything but i want to keep Scrafty and Primarena
My first thoughts were that Archaludon and Annihilape would be the best partners for beat up. I built a pretty standard rain core around that idea

I made a trick room team with mega crabominable, and I noticed it kinda has a particularly hard time against sun teams and that I don't use its sun mode a lot. Any advice on which pokemon to switch Torkoal and/inceneroar for to have a better match-up against sun teams? Been thinking of maybe running Mega Blastoise as an option to bring in instead of crabominable for that
Please help build a team around mega Beedrill
So I made a team that I feel like has good coverage. At first I made this team to counter TR. Then I just started pairing Pokémon together for the best synergy. Just looking for insight on what y’all might think about the team or what I can do/change to make this better!
I need gelp buliding a team with flowette
Im using the raichu Y Team from michaelderbeste and originally it had foette as the 2nd mega but he switched to mawhile because it has a good fairy resist but why not just run metagross? What would u guys pick as the 2nd mega? Floette, mawhile, metagross or somethig else? Thx in advance 🙂 had the best sucess with floette because it fits the setup theme with calm mind to make it super strong and good with the fake out support. Havent tried metagross yet tho
I used this team in a tournament (its the team I asked help for a day or 2 ago) I did decent with the team, Im just noticing that my clefable and peliper arent very helpful (as in I feel like they have anti synergy here since I can never find a time to use them but its ALWAYS peliper, clefable is fine its just the thunderwave moveslot I dont see myself using) clefable is fine IMO but I dont see myself using thunderwave. any advice on this?
hi guys, i've been running this team, but i rarely ever use garchomp - do you think anything else could be better (like an incineroar or a basculegion or idk) : https://pokepast.es/ba7eb94e2a3030e4
Also apparently my floette set is bad but i like draining kiss and calm mind so idk
This is a Trick Room team built around Mega Mawile. It includes a fast Garchomp, specifically optimized to OHKO Mega Charizard Y, and a slow Ninetales designed to overwrite rain immediately. The Ninetales also serves as a check to Archaludon with Overheat and can pressure Swampert with Solar Beam. I substitute these two in place of Incineroar when facing rain or Charizard-based teams. Since I am new to VGC, this is my first self-built team, and I would love some suggestions or feedback
I just got it and wanna build a nice team around it, but i dont know how. Pls help me
Getting back into VGC after a short break, I played champions at launch but dropped until recently, while its not a mandatory focus I would like to play a team core that can include M Eelektross, would appreciate any advice or knowledge on what pairings play into it and or what team I could be running to achieve the best results with it at this point in time (I do have VGC experience prior playing from SWSH through Reg I SV, so I dont need a coach so much I do a meta breakdown/team suggestion)
Hello everyone! I have been wanting to build Arash Ommati's Protect The King team for the next season in a couple of hours. We got the natures, items and the moves but not the spread.
Any Pros willing to help me out and give me a hand to look out for threats in the M-B regulation?
I love playing the game but I am very bad at teambuiling, here's 2 mons I have in mind (raichuX is gonna stay, just not sure about maushold) any advice on what I could add?
This is everything in my box i hope its good to make the best team
it's the standard zard y - toxapex set but instead of metagross and hydreigon for its second core i wanna try using mega scrafty
the idea is to set up screens with grim and infestation and then parting shot into double intimidate by scrafty.
I'm using gholdengo as the cover for scrafty but honestly I'm not sure about this gholdengo. this is my first time playing vgc and don't know anything about how to pilot this cheese man.
since i have no speed control, i ended up using scarf max special atk set with trick but i haven't played enough of it. in theory trick infestation should be really good but i want to know if there are any other options i could use
Making this channel to dump my teams(Team Reports incoming when I feel like it)
I wanna give u free hand first. Just give me ur best ideas for the team. The photos of the pokemon are not up to date but the basic is here. Have fun
I am not sure what will be better. Probably the Tr team but maybe we can fuse it into one team?
