warmbeacon-46 OP

This is the team i made. I dont know if its good or not but i just really wanted to use both camerupt and crabominable on the same team 😀

warmbeacon-46 OP

I had mega dragalge instead of crabominable but i changed it because dragalge wasnt doing meaningful damage (not sure if crabominable will) and i was lacking a bit of offense on the physical side

warmbeacon-46 OP

In case ur wondering why im not using Mega Mawile, i just think its boring and i simply dont want to. Incineroar is also a max atk build which is why its white herb

warmbeacon-46 OP

i posted this thread for 3 reasons
1. Is the team good?
Sure any team can work as long as you’re skillful enough but as i hate to admit it-im generally just bad. If its like, a bit too niche or the skill ceiling is a tad bit too high, im going to drop it. If its pretty good, ill use it.
2. Weaknesses & Improvements
Im seeking help from others to check if my team has any weakness (example: half the team is weak to ground) or if it has any bad match ups (i dont think this team likes going against rain teams) and how to fix the weaknesses/bad match ups. I would also want to see if the team has any room for improvements (example replacing a pokemon for another or changing a move to make it better, changing items, etc.)

warmbeacon-46 OP

Additional Notes:
im thinking of running thunder punch on crab just so its better against rain and also hyper voice on farig for more offense and to finish off low mons, but im not sure if thats ideal.
