I took this team all the way to MB2 today, but meeting a lot of arch/rain.

I am wondering how I can adapt this team to be any better in that matchup. I either need to predict perfectly with torkoal or vileplume to win it I feel. Or maybe I’m just not bringing staraptor enough.

Considering replacing aerodactyl with something that can handle it
