This rain team follows a classic structure. Pelipper is the rain setter of choice thanks to U-turn and its great defensive utility, while Barraskewda is the best Swift Swim user with its blasting Speed and powerful pivot option in Flip Turn. Ferrothorn is a staple in rain teams and help dealing with Electric types like Tapu Koko and Grass types like Rillaboom. It is also a very good answer to Tapu Fini, coming in after a Barraskewda Flip Turn to either threaten it with Power Whip or set some layers of Spikes. Offensive Zapdos can use its two powerful STABs with a perfect accuracy when rain is up, helping breaking through physical walls and bulky Water types like Toxapex and Slowbro who don't fear Barraskewda's moves. Despite being fully offensive, Zapdos still has an alright defensive utility, giving a secondary check to Grass type moves like Kartana's ones. Seismitoad is another great Swift Swim user who brings a useful Electric immunity and is able to threaten walls like Toxapex. Lastly, Galarian Moltres helps checking the threatening Dragapult, while being able to spam its fully accurate Hurricane under rain. Taunt and Nasty Plot makes it a deadly weapon against more defensive teams.

Most of the time you want to lead with Pelipper to set the Rain early in the game. Barraskewda is your main Speed Control tool and can weaken any team without Toxapex or Slowbro by spamming Flip Turn until everything is in range of its Liquidation. When one of these Barraskewda answer is in the opposing team, you can use its Flip Turn to bring either Zapdos or Seismitoad and force progress. You can also try setting Ferrothorn's Spikes and Seismitoad's Stealth Rock to prevent these Pokemon from recovering too much health with Regenerator.

This team based on Aurora Veil is pretty straightforward: you want to set your Aurora Veil early in the game and then setup your different win conditions quickly to either sweep or open a path for the following sweeper. Alolan Ninetales is the best Aurora Veil setter in the tier and can use support options like Hypnosis and Encore to give a free switch-in to one of your breakers. The Volcarona + Tapu Fini core is extremely threatening for most bulky offense. They can use both the screens and Substitute to get free setup turns against a lot of common answers. One of these two Pokemon will often have a very strong matchup against the opposing team, and you will thus have to let it setup in the best conditions. Having a defensive Landorus-T seems weird in this kind of offensive team, but it brings a lot of stability to the team and can force some defensive Pokemon to come on the field to safely bring a setup sweeper. Bisharp is here for its resistances and because it is a superb screen abuser with both Swords dance and Defiant. This team features an uncommon Bisharp set with Rock Polish, giving it a cleaner role, as it can boost both its Attack and its Speed to finish of a weakened team. Lastly, Blacephalon is here to bring some immediate Speed control option to the team, being able to revenge kill a lot of opposing setup sweepers. It can also be a great cleaner with Beast Boost late game if its main answers have been worn down enough.

This team is built around a deadly offensive core composed of Zeraora and Galarian Zapdos. Zeraora is a fast Electric-type who can beat most non Ground type Pokemon in the tier thanks to Bulk Up and its coverage options, making it highly effective at cleaning. The main Zeraora's check in the tier being Landorus-T makes Galarian Zapdos an insane partner, as it can take advantage of Zeraora luring in Landorus-T to come and get a Defiant boost allowing it to nuke something. Equipped with a Choice Band it can break through most walls in the tier, helping Zeraora who struggles against bulkier foes, including Ground-types that it struggles against. The defensive core is also a well known one. Toxapex and Tornadus-T form a very efficient Regenerator core able to deal with plenty of common metagame threats, while Landorus-T brings an Electric immunity while checking annoying Pokemon like Heatran. Jirachi rounds off this team by bringing a Tapu Lele answer and a key support option with Healing Wish. Indeed, Galarian Zapdos is very susceptible to chip damage and love to be brought back to full health late game to finish off the opposing defensive core. Zeraora can also appreciate being brought back to full health after a first setup attempt to clean late game.

A Bulky Offense team based around a deadly duo of threats in Choice Specs Zapdos and Choice Band Weavile. Zapdos' main STAB in Hurricane is extremely hard to switch into and can deter Ground types to come in, giving it more leverage to use Volt Switch in some situations. Weavile can help Zapdos by pressuring most Special walls, especially as it can be brought in by Zapdos' Volt Switch against Special walls like Galarian Slowking. Urshifu completes this offensive core forming a great Voltturn duo with Zapdos. It also loves to see Weavile clicking Poison Jab to weaken one of its main check in Tapu Fini. Physically defensive Ferrothorn and Specially defensive Landorus-T gives a solid defensive basis to the team while bringing some hazards control. Defog on Landorus-T is particularly important as you can remove Rocks set by other Landorus-T or Heatran to prevent chip damage on Weavile and Zapdos. Lastly, bulky Volcarona helps to check threats who can quickly overwhelm the Ferro + Lando core like Kartana and takes advantage of Special walls who can check Zapdos like Blissey with a Safeguard set.


Magnezone + Misty Seed Hawlucha Offense by Ox the Fox: Resource - SS OU Sample Teams (Crown Tundra) (31)Resource - SS OU Sample Teams (Crown Tundra) (32)Resource - SS OU Sample Teams (Crown Tundra) (33)Resource - SS OU Sample Teams (Crown Tundra) (34)Resource - SS OU Sample Teams (Crown Tundra) (35)Resource - SS OU Sample Teams (Crown Tundra) (36)

This team capitalises on Magnezone's trapping ability to make breakers like Tapu Lele and Kartana even more threatening. Magnezone's main target are Ferrothorn and Corviknight, being able to trap and beat the former with Iron Defense + Body Press, while severely crippling the latter with Tunderbolt. Its Rocky Helmet can further cripple Corviknight clicking U-turn while weakening some physical breakers. Removing Ferrothorn and Corviknight means that Tapu Lele can freely use its STAB moves to claim kills, while enabling a late game Kartana clean against teams that rely too much on Corviknight to check it. Tapu Fini is another Pokemon who loves to see Magnezone remove Ferrothorn and who can check threats like Urshifu-R, Weavile and Dragapult and revenge kill them with a Choice Scarf set. Landorus-T acts as a glue here, being able to set Rock and to pivot into Tapu Lele or even Magnezone on a Corviknight coming in to Defog. Lastly, Hawlucha is an incredibly powerful late game cleaner who takes advantage of the holes creates by Tapu Lele and Kartana.
