[FONT=&quot]Good evening! I have finished the game, finished the ‘dex, etc., and am looking to build a fun team for post game and battling my brother as well. I wanted to use at least one more Gen. 8 Pok?mon in the last two slots, and have otherwise filled out my roster with Pok?mon I have not used before.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]All have been bred for perfect IVs, but I haven’t settled on defined roles just yet.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Whimsicott
Timid * Infiltrator * Focus Sash
Moonblast
Energy Ball
Psychic or U-Turn
Tailwind

Whimsicott is Tailwind support and a special attacker. Does not have to be a designated lead.

[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Flygon
Jolly * Levitate * Haven’t decided
Earthquake
Outrage
Crunch
U-Turn

I have tended to not use dragons in the past, so Flygon would be my first foray into them. Physical attacker, but I don't want to necessarily get stuck into Choice Band. I am sure there are better moves/coverage.[/FONT]


[FONT=&quot]Toxapex
Calm * Regenerator * Black Sludge
Scald
Haze
Recover
Baneful Bunker[/FONT]


[FONT=&quot]Probably don't need to go into this one. Nothing unusual here; just didn't really try it out in Ultra Moon, so giving it a chance here.

Corviknight
Careful * Pressure * Leftovers
Hone Claws
Brave Bird
Steel Wing
Roost

I am kind of between two spreads here, as I am likely to remove Steel Wing for Substitute. [/FONT]


[FONT=&quot]So, my take is that I need at least one entry hazard (Stealth Rock?) ‘mon and probably a Knock Off option. But I really don’t feel strongly about the other Gen 8 Pok?mon at this point...feels like everyone has Dragapult and so I covered dragon with Flygon.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]That said, also not set on the other four or their move sets.[/FONT]
