id say this is a pretty balanced team, there is no direct speed control but sinistcha has trick room to reverse opposing trick room or counter tailwind if need be
i have been struggling against sand so suggestions in that department are welcome
Another One

Why the Prim?
Trick Room isint really that Meta in Open Team Sheet Bo3
Sinistcha --> Whim
Prim --> Bas
Expecially when ur not rly commiting
i wanted some fairy coverage for dragon that threaten my xard
Use Sylvi
https://klipy.com/gifs/sylveon-9
also what made you think this was a trick room team😭
She's an atomic bomb with fairy feather
Sinistcha + Prim
Made it look like you were playing mode
sinistcha is for countering tr
and is great into rain
You dont really need too in this meta
You can 2v1 a Trick Room Setting
And destroy there team
Sylveon Hyper Beam Can 1 Shot Farigaraf
Even with Light Screen
i dont need to counter tr or i dont need to counter rain?
because like
rain is everywhere
also i gotta specify
this is for ladder
Lot of zard x use dd + coaching sneasler to deal much dmg
im not a big fan of the "protect the queen" strats tbh
it feels too reliant on one mon and xard is a physical attacker so its easier for my opponent to neuter it with intimidate and rain
after some testing i have concluded that sinistcha is a bench warmer, im open to replacements
potentially a water type, im not very satisfied with my sand matchup
come on team builders do your thing i dont wanna make a new thread
