Team Builder

Team has two modes. 1) Swampert, Pelipper, Archaludon, & Sinistcha is the basic mode, the idea is for Swampert to outspeed and ohko your opponent's big pieces in the rain. Sinistcha likes using life dew a lot because every mon on this team has max hp and (mostly) defensive spreads. Once Swampert goes down/is positioned badly Archaludon is usually able to clean up/give Swampert a better situation. For leads I usually lead Swampert & Archaludon with the intent to switch one out immediately into Pelipper depending on what the opponent leads. This is to either activate swift swim or get electro shot online and begin setting up. It's important to realize if Archaludon or Swampert should be used for late game.

2) The second mode is the same except you sub out Swampert for Aerodactyl. This mode is almost exclusively used against Charizard Y teams. Rock Slide and Ice Fang are super threatening to Charizard and Garchomp respectively. That being said, the matchup is still pretty difficult because you kind of need Aerodactyl to carry you. Archaludon is good if Charizard is already knocked out, or if you have rain up, otherwise be very cautious. Opposing Garchomp and Aerodactyl with rock slide threaten your mega Aerodactyl, so play very defensively with it until you can get a clean rock slide off on their Charizard. Worst case scenario try to electro shot their Charizard while in tailwind. For leads it is similar to the first mode except it is Aerodactyl and Archaludon. If they lead Charizard Y then you may protect Archaludon and delay bringing in Pelipper to override their sun. If they lead something that threatens Aerodactyl like Basculegion I switch Aerodactyl out and use Archaludon to force out Charizard Y. 2A) I find that many times Charizard Y Floette teams almost always bring Floette because the see Aerodactyl. Because of this I usually revert back to the first mode, I have yet to be punished for bringing Swampert against this kind of team.
