Honestly, I don't know why I am doing this but here I go.
Just one thing before the team. I am painfully aware that Mono Poison lends itself better to more balanced/stall teams. Idk man, I just thought Mono Poison Offense would be a fun experiment, not really tryna turn it into optimal stall/balance.
EDIT: forgot the paste (seems to be a trend with me ffs). Here it is. I replaced
with 
. Defog + Levitate was too good on this team. Also, spdef spread because will-o covers def.
That's all, I hope to see what people think of the team.

I had decent success with this team around the 1200s-1300s ELO range (not a higher range because I suck at battling). So anyway, here's the team.
The Team
is the special wall and pivot of the team. Sludge Bomb gives it a STAB move that also has a nice 30% chance to poison. Future sight provides good support for wallbreakers, being able to overwhelm walls with it. Scald gives it good coverage with a burn chance. EQ is used to deal with 
since it is annoying for any Mono Poison team. I was considering having a black sludge + Chilly reception set, but I went with an AV set because of the sheer amount of bulk.
is a bulky wallbreaker. is always a nice mon to have imo, so I had to include it. Drain punch gives it a reliable Fighting STAB move that also provides recovery. Knock Off is always a good move to have, since it removes items and can force progress. Bulk up + sub allows it to set up on mons using status or weak utility moves. I chose a spdef spread to maximize 's bulk, since it is already physically bulky (although since I already have maybe I should maximize phys def). Guard Dog is a good ability to have bc intimidate is one of the most common abilities.
is THE special wallbreaker in any Mono Poison team (that isn't full stall ofc). Sludge Bomb and Earth Power gives it good STAB moves while Ice Beam and Flamethrower provide good coverage. Honestly, not much else to say.
is the physical wallbreaker of the team. provides a more than appreciated Psychic Immunity. Crunch and Gunk Shot give it good STAB moves, while Liquidation is really the only good physical coverage gets (apart from Waterfall). T-spikes are kinda just a filler move, though it can be used to bait a Rapid Spin while you switch to air balloon 
. Apart from wallbreaking, can provide intimidate support for the team.
is the scarfer/cleaner of the team. Fiery Dance gives it a decently good STAB move while also being able to boost itself, while sludge wave gives it reliable Poison STAB. Energy Ball and Dazzling Gleam are good coverage. Nothing much to say really.
can work as a wallbreaker or an unburden cleaner. CC is one of the most if not the most spammable move in the whole game, and it along with Dire Claw is a good STAB combination. Acrobatics almost mandatory on . Swords Dance makes this thing outright terrifying.
Weaknesses
This team is really weak to ground. Seriously, just 1 scarf
or 
and I am done (maybe with unburden could deal with . Also, maybe 
with Defog would help but idk. The team is also kinda weak to hazards because of no hazard removal. Psychic types are also annoying, but manageable bc of .
