Dracovish @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Strong Jaw
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
- Fishious Rend
- Crunch
- Leech Life
- Psychic Fangs

fish is excellent sweeper in this team. he is the main member of team becsuse it handle many Pokemons. i gave it scarf to outpace many Pokemons and an adamant nature to hit as hard as possible. other moves are just to fill slots and ensure he does not gave any boost( gastrodon's storm drain).

Sylveon @ Leftovers
Ability: Pixilate
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Mystical Fire
- Wish
- Hyper Voice
- Protect

sylveon is to resist dragon moves so. I gave this ev spread so that it can tank gastrodon's and hydriegn earth power and some more special moves.wish to help my mons with recovery and protect for its recovery. mystical fire help me to cripple special attacker and ferrothorn and hyper voice for stab. it also help me in safely switch in in fighting type move for bisharp

Bisharp @ Black Glasses
Ability: Defiant
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Iron Head
- Sucker Punch
- Throat Chop

bisharb has access to best priority move sucker punch with one sword dance it can 0ko dragapult ( which is one of best counter of fish) with black glasses it can 0ko mons which he was 1ko. though sucker punch lacks pp so i gave another dark stab to it. bisharp help me cripling some serious walls like eviolite corsola and eviolite dusclops which dragapult finds hard to also it can easily setup in the presence of toxapex and ferrothorn then can sweeps through entire team

Excadrill @ Focus Sash
Ability: Mold Breaker
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Rapid Spin
- Earthquake
- Iron Head

excadrill is my hazard setter and spinner gave it mold breaker to hit mimikyu and other ability baised mons. stealth rock amd rapid spin is for hazard. iron head and earthquake are stabs this pokemon is good in late game sweeping when everyone in opponent side is weaker or crippled. jolly nature to outspeed others excadrills

Ditto @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Imposter
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Transform

ditto is the best revenge killer in entire teir. if a pokemon somehow manages to setup ( like kommo, cloyster, dragapult,haxorus,lucario etc) then with choice scarf it can outspeed them and then kills them it also come in handy if an intimidater(like gyrados,arcanine) lower my attack then i can lower their too also i can easily switch ins in the earthquake (which my 2 mons fear) of levitaters( like flygon and hydriegn earth power) also i can use gastrodon's scald to raise its special attack (by switching in the predicting turn) or can heal himself with sesmitoad scald. both of uppermention are best counter to my fish

Sableye @ Aguav Berry
Ability: Prankster
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 Spe
Impish Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Foul Play
- Will-O-Wisp
- Encore
- Taunt

sableye comes with one of the best ingame abilities. foul play is one of the best stab . will o wisp help me to easily handle physical attacker before they can hit hard . encore also help to make pokemon limited to only one move. while taunt is to stop hazard setter and other setupers it also plays the role of spin blocker

quit good team but doesn't stand against bulky water type (especially sesmitoad and vapoureon) of their scalds burns then this team doesn't do much( because i have many physical attackers) does not know whom should i change because every body do their roles best

I'm locking your RMT for the time being as the forum rules require that you provide at least 3 lines of descriptions for each Pokemon to explain their roles. Please read the rules carefully and take a look at Team Showcase to see the level of detail we require. PM me with updated descriptions and I'll be happy to unlock this.

Hello, samsamkaria!
I would like to say i actualy like your team a lot, and i think it has a lot of potential! :)

So there are a few difficulties i can imagine it faces, so im going to try and help you with those by making a few changes. I'll explain each change as we go. :)
What you should know first is the things i keep in mind whilst rating you team;
-I would say this is a bulky offense team by the looks of it, though it could remind of a HO team with a strange defensive backbone in sylveon and the sableye for support, or a balance team, but im gonna go with the assumption that its BO.
-So the playstyle for BO is obviously an offense playstyle, so you are going to make plays at times to get the best matchup, and you are also going to be focusing on breaking you ropponents team down rather fast, not letting the game drag out for long as your team then struggles with being weakened heavily.
-A BO team normaly dont have that many straight-up walls that can sponge hits forever, but it relies on pivots that can take 1 or 2 hits then get you the optimal matchup or provide support or offensive pressure on their own.

So let's get started, shall we? :)

Your team currently:

Overview

A team built around Dracovish, a strong breaker in the current metagame that has quite few counters. It is one of the few pokemon that cannot be stalled out by recovery-move-users such as Clefable, Corviknight and Mandibuzz.
Alongside it we have Sylveon that provides with defensive support for it, being able to switch in on the most common revenge-killers that want to punish Dracovish for comming out, such as Dragapult and Hydreigon. Sylveon also switches in on and weakens Seismitoad, Gastrodon and Jellicent if need be, which is good for Dracovish.
Next is Bisharp being a setup pokemon with a strong priority move in Sucker Punch. It also boasts good offensive typing with Steel and Dark, topped on its already great attack-stat.
Excadrill doubles as both a Rocks-setter and hazzard remover. Hazzards are a must-have for all offensive teams. It punishes switches and double-switches, and deals chip-damage that works towards a late-game cleanup and makes it more difficult for walls to do their job.
Ditto is indeed a great revenge-killer thanks to its ability. It lets you check many setup-pokemon that may threaten your team.
Sableye can provide great support for a team with it's prankster ability.

So first we need to take a look at some of the problems your team faces:

Defensive threats to the team:

Defensive Threats

Your team's offensive core is made up of Dracovish and Bisharp. These pokemon both struggle with the three first defensive pokemon, Seismitoad, Ferrothorn and Toxapex. All these are very common in the metagame and therefore it is a must that a BO team is able to deal with them. Corviknight is mainly a problem because of its movepool including Body Press. Body Press threatens out Bisharp, which usualy cannot kill Corvi quick enough to not get ko'ed in return, making Dracovish the only pokemon that can break through this pokemon. Dracovish therefore may struggle with having to switch in constantly on attacking moves or hazzards, weakening it. Corviknight also runs bulk up very often, making it difficult to break without getting punished by a +1 Brave Bird or Body Press.

Offensive threats to the team:

Offensive Threats

Offensively your pokemon have a few issues as you can see, but as i mentioned earlier, a BO team doesnt need to counter every pokemon, it merely needs to take 1 or 2 hits with either pivots or a pokemon that can ko the threat in return. What i've mainly put on the list are pokemon that are threatening to BO teams because they either outspeed our own pokemon or have the ability to take a hit or two and punish or ko our pokemon in return.
Common threats to BO include, but are not limited to; Excadrill, sand rush or mold breaker, Cinderace, Togekiss, Toxtricity, Dracovish, Dracozolt, Bisharp and Conkeldurr. Some of these will have ways of outspeeding by speed-boosting moves or abilities, such as Excadrill, be naturally fast as Cinderace, certain sets run Scarf as Togekiss, Toxtricity, Dracovish and Dracozolt. Some pokemon runs priority that can threaten the team once boosted or your team is weakened, as Bisharp with Sucker Punch, and some pokemon will be bulky enough to take 1 hit from certain pokemon and threaten in return with strong attacks.

So the changes i recommend are quite simple, really;

Big Changes;
->
Seismitoad @ Leftovers
Ability: Water Absorb
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 SpD
Relaxed Nature
Stealth Rock / Scald / Earthquake / Grass Knot

The reason im making this change is because your team will benefit from having a pokemon that can pivot on pokemon like Dracovish, Dracozolt, Excadrill and Cinderace. This pokemon also checks Bisharp to a certain degree, and doesnt allow it to setup. This set also carries Grass Knot, which helps your team weaken opposing Seismitoads for Dracovish and Bisharp.
While Rapid Spin is nice for your team against opposing spikes or sticky webs, Seismitoad will be more usefull for your team by the reasons mentioned above. Sticky Webs also works slightly to your advantage, letting Bisharp get it's defiant boost and have no real issue with the drop thanks to Sucker Punch.

->
Rotom-Heat @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 248 HP / 116 SpA / 144 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
Overheat / Volt Switch / Thunder Wave / Trick

This swap is to deal with the remaining offensive threats, Corviknight and Togekiss, as well as giving you a pokemon that can Volt Switch out to give you the correct matchup which benefits your tea greatly. Trick also annoys bulkier pokemon as corsola-galar and others that will get crippled by the choice-item. Thunder Wave lets you take a spec Draco Meteor from Dragapult and cripple it's speed.
Sableye doesn't provide much usefull support for your team, its main jobs are to taunt, will-o-wisp and spin-block. It does it's job quite well, and threatens many fast opposing physical attackers such as Excadrill, Dracovish and Dracozolt by crippling their attack with the burn. This job becomes rather redundant after we make the change of Excadrill -> Seismitoad, as Seismi is able to counter or pivot on these. Rotom-heat also has more offensive pressure and as previously said, lets you pivot on an check the remaining offensive threats.
Other options are Grimmsnarl that also gets prankster, and can cripple Togekiss' speed with Thunder Wabe, though this is threatened by Corvi. This pokemon also works as a check against dragons as Dragapult and Hydreigon, but you already have Sylveon for this, so whilst this is an option if you want a prankster pokemon that can carry Thunder Wave and Taunt, i definetely recommend Rotom-Heat over this.

Smaller changes;

Dracovish
Leech Life -> Outrage
Leech Life doesnt really provide much coverage for Dracovish. It is not a pokemon that will want to take too many hits to begin with, so leech life for recovery will not be as useful. I recommend outrage, as it gives you Dragon-stab to hit the water-immunities as Seismitoad and Gastrodon, potentialy being able to ko them with prior damage.


Sylveon @ Leftovers
Ability: Pixilate
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 152 Def / 104 SpD
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
Mystical Fire / Wish / Hyper Voice / Protect

This set prevents you from being 2hko'd by 0atk Corviknight with no attack boosts. Keep in mind that this does not counter Corvi, as corvi often carry Bulk Up, which lets it setup on you.

0 Atk Corviknight Iron Head vs. 248 HP / 152+ Def Sylveon: 164-194 (41.7 - 49.3%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

The team i suggest:

I do hope this helps you!
Have fun laddering :)

Due to prior experiences, i do accept critizism for my rates, but i ask anyone that wishes to do so to keep it short and precise and use facts and solid arguments, preferably with calcs, to improve on the rate and the team. Thank you. :)
