Final #180 (R 2313)by RixohVGC

Team Concept

Talonflame combines Gale Wings with an unheld item to double Acrobatics' power for priority high damage, while Maushold's Friend Guard reduces the damage its partner takes in this defensive double build. Annihilape and Hisuian Samurott provide physical closing power with Bulk Up and priority moves respectively. With three members carrying priority moves, the team keeps striking first even at a Speed disadvantage.

Key Pokémon Points

Talonflame (Gale Wings): Acrobatics / Tailwind / Protect / Taunt. A Speed attacker that doubles Acrobatics' power by holding no item, while Gale Wings also secures priority.

Maushold (Chople Berry, Friend Guard): Follow Me / Protect / Beat Up / Super Fang. A defensive support that uses Friend Guard to reduce the damage its partner takes.

Annihilape (Sitrus Berry, Defiant): Rage Fist / Bulk Up / Drain Punch / Protect. Grows stronger with Bulk Up before pushing through with Drain Punch to recover HP as it deals damage.

Hisuian Samurott (Life Orb, Sharpness): Ceaseless Edge / Protect / Sucker Punch / Sacred Sword. Sharpness-boosted crit STAB ignores Defense to deal heavy damage.

Mega Froslass (Snow Cloak): Blizzard / Shadow Ball / Aurora Veil / Protect. Snow Cloak also raises its evasion while Aurora Veil reinforces the whole team's bulk.

Glimmora (Focus Sash, Toxic Debris): Earth Power / Power Gem / Sludge Bomb / Spiky Shield. A rear-line attacker with a wide range of special coverage moves plus Spiky Shield to punish contact attacks.
