Mega Glimmora + Froslass Double Mega
https://pokepast.es/7855546db28371f2
I need help getting through Archaludon with this team, is there any way in which it can work with the current roster of Pokemon? Should I change up a Pokemon in order to support both my cores better? I'm unsure of Rotom is that good here. In short I need help finding a good mon to counter Archaludon which walls this team.

Mega glimmora
I do have a way to deal with archaladon but it might sound kinda riddiculous
Sinistcha
I mean technically you can use frosslass but sinistcha is better for it
My first note unrelated to Archaludon is: Brave Bird will break your Sash. You could either go Dual Wingbeat or change the item to Sharp Beak maybe.
Now about Archie... has it really been this much of a pain? You sure are lacking super effective damage to it other than Earth Power, but you have some great neutral special attacks against it that should not worry about their Stamina boosts.
Also, you could use Trick on it to disrupt and remove Leftovers.
I think Talonflame appreciates more survivability...? But sharp beak could also work
It's a pain when I'm fighting against rain teams tbf
I agree. I run Sash + Dual Wingbeat on mine
I was considering using Aerodactyl instead as well
Definitely a great option
I think like it or not I'd need a fighting type to get rid of
Archaludon
With a team of 5 special attackers full of neutral damage against it, I still believe you work around it
Fighting type move would still be amazing anyway for the Kingambits and Tyranitars too

I think this replay shows my issue with Arch rn
Rain teams don't really allow me to bring Glimm and Rotom is weakened
That might be a case of bringing both your megas - Glimm is strong without mega, earth power should do some good damage to Archie
And sludge bomb would be great against Scovillain
32 SpA Glimmora Earth Power vs. 28 HP / 31 SpD Archaludon: 108-128 (55.9 - 66.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
