This discussion highlights the importance of weather control and tactical team composition for high-level VGC play.

what's the moveset

roost is interesting, i think you rather have protect, because infront of charizard you have too switch and no one her besides ceruledge wants to tank a heat wave
wait why is garchomp rocking scarf protect
wat
Meant to have life orb on chomp and I’d use greninja against charizard
Wouldn't you rather have blizzard instead of ice beam since you have A9
water shuriken is also a really bad move
Charizard is not dying to that especially if sun is up
What do you think I should change then
Was thinking of dropping ceruledge for something else but I’m not sure
if you want to use Scizor ceruledge is fine
you can bait out fire moves and switch into it for a boost on bitter blade
i think A9 has to go here because it isn't really providing anything
instead i would recommend either Whimsicott
with Tailwind
rain dance
encore
and moonblast
or Sableye
with Quash
rain dance
and whatever else you need
duel screens/Fake out/ disable encore/Will o wisp/thunder wave
Rain would be really beneficial because then you can run weather ball on Greninja and have a 100% accurate 100bp water stab
Bet ty ty imma do sableye and try it
no prob, good luck on the grind
evs?

If you run dual screens I think light clay is almost always better
