  1. Corviknight (M) @ Leftovers
  2. Ability: Pressure
  3. EVs: 252 HP / 168 Def / 88 SpD
  4. Impish Nature
  5. - Body Press
  6. - Brave Bird
  7. - Roost
  8. - Defog
  9.  
  10. Basic Corv, U-Turn missing because BB is just way better here and u already have Voltturn in Rotom and Dragapult.
  11. Checks Toxicroaks Weaknesses really well.
  12.  
  13. Dragapult (M) @ Choice Specs
  14. Ability: Infiltrator
  15. EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
  16. Timid Nature
  17. - Draco Meteor
  18. - Shadow Ball
  19. - Thunder
  20. - U-turn
  21.  
  22. Pult is your Standard Offensive Threat. I put Thunder on it since you need the damage for pex, corv and Mandi, also the para chance is really nice and can sometimes go a long way. You already know what else it does other than that.
  23.  
  24. Rotom-Heat @ Heavy-Duty Boots
  25. Ability: Levitate
  26. EVs: 240 HP / 92 SpD / 176 Spe
  27. Calm Nature
  28. IVs: 0 Atk
  29. - Volt Switch
  30. - Overheat
  31. - Pain Split
  32. - Toxic
  33.  
  34. Bulky Pivot, synergizes well with Corv and can blanket check some things. 176 Speed to creep for Max speed Scizor so u dont lose to SD Knock + BP since Scizor is getting more popular recently.
  35.  
  36. (+2 252 Atk Life Orb Scizor Superpower vs. 248 HP / 0 Def Rotom-Heat: 321-378 (105.9 - 124.7%) -- guaranteed OHKO) (+2 252 Atk Life Orb Scizor Knock Off (97.5 BP) vs. 248 HP / 0 Def Rotom-Heat: 260-307 (85.8 - 101.3%) -- 12.5% chance to OHKO) (+2 252 Atk Life Orb Technician Scizor Bullet Punch vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Dragapult: 324-382 (102.2 - 120.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO)
  37.  
  38. Gastrodon (F) @ Leftovers
  39. Ability: Sticky Hold
  40. EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
  41. Sassy Nature
  42. - Scald
  43. - Earthquake
  44. - Recover
  45. - Clear Smog
  46.  
  47. Heatran Check basically, can also check CM Clef and other setuppers like CM fini or non Giga Drain Volcarona. Volcarona is a bit trick with Gastrodon so I put Leftovers instead of HDB to make some matchups more lenient to play. If you face Giga Drain Volc and Gastrodon dies just go rotom after and toxic and spam pain split and finish with overheat it should deal with a +1 +1 +1 QD volcarona if u have full hp.
  48.  
  49. Toxicroak (F) @ Life Orb
  50. Ability: Dry Skin
  51. Shiny: Yes
  52. EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
  53. Jolly Nature
  54. - Drain Punch
  55. - Gunk Shot
  56. - Ice Punch
  57. - Sucker Punch
  58.  
  59. Star of this Team. I really like Toxicroak it has always been one of my favourite Pokemon and it doesnt do too bad of a job in OU. I tried Choice Band before but it is easily abuseable for the opponent when u are choice locked. You can recover the Life Orb Chip back up with Drain Punch. Gunk Shot hits heavy as shit and Ice punch for stuff like Lando, Dnite and Chomp. Sucker Punch is just good bcuz u can snack off some kills if a sweeper from the opposing team doesnt quite die. It doesnt do much damage but provides a good niche.
  60. The Mon is really fun to play with, too.
  61.  
  62. Clefable (F) @ Leftovers
  63. Ability: Magic Guard
  64. EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
  65. Bold Nature
  66. - Moonblast
  67. - Knock Off
  68. - Soft-Boiled
  69. - Stealth Rock
  70.  
  71. Yeah so uhh its a Standart Bold Clef, nothing too special here it just does Clef things, checks a margin of the Physical Attackers in the meta and yeah u already know what it does.
  72.  
  73. Threats: Slowking(-Galar): FS Port still pretty annoying to deal with for this team so u need to go hard pult everytime and especially Glowking can hit it with other moves instead of just scald or clicking FS. It is manageable but its not the optimal matchup.
  74.  
  75. Kyurem: Only the Specs one with Focus Blast, Draco, EP and Freeze Dry. Theres not much leeway to play around it so yeah, be careful against it.
  76.  
  77. Other than that u basically have ways to play around everything if u play smart. Team is very fun to use imo, enjoy :D
