Its been a bit since I started out in Pokémon Champions, however Competitive Styles aren’t my field. So I was hoping to get some help!
For singles I was hoping to get a team that revolves very well with snorlax, and for doubles a team that holds well with sharpedo (and possibly chandelure soon, however I am aware of how frail and at a disadvantage their stats are—)
It would also help what behavior or item they should use, tysm !!



If we’re going off of just what you have in the box for doubles, you could build a rain team with sharpedo
Pelipper Arch sharpedo
You could use mega golisopod and farigaraf for trick room
If you’re fine using something like sash sharpedo over mega you could then use mega swampert to round it out
Or mega dragonite for more of a balance pick
bump
for more suggestionss
Is there another other than rain team? That was one I previously used ^^

my approach (evs are not final)
is it best to test it out first?
Why scizor
Scizor is awful rn 😭
Worse golli
to hit fairy pets and ice types salamence struggles with
Also
This team has 2 protects
This is confusing omd
Lowk Sneasler over basc
y maybe
i was just opticing for a good fire water grass core
and this is straight up not true since both share types but not roles
Yes it is
Scizor has seen 0 play since golli as well
Priority has died in this format so wanted bullet punch isnt great
