Electric terrain is back and with a new coat of paint since my last adaptation

Whats scarier than an iron thorns setting up a couple DDs in your face, one that doesn't need to hold booster energy, so I took the electric terrain team from my team bazaar post a while back and I gave it a couple touchups.
Loaded dice is a personal favorite item of mine on thorns as it makes rock blast more reliable rock stab than stone edge and pin missile with tera bug is strong enough against ground type, speaking of tera bug iron thorns is one of the few causes where bug is a pretty nice defensive typing to compensate its base one, bug resists all of the fighting ground and grass moves that could be thrown at iron thorns and only a crazy person would hit iron thorns with a flying or fire type move before its terastalized. And supercell slam getting powered up further by terrain makes it a powerful neutral option. Only downside to this set is all of your moves are 90-95% accurate but I'm sure that won't be an issue (in one of these replays it will in fact be an issue)
little guy is here to set terrain, maybe status something with discharge + scald or get up a spike, recover or memento last depending on preference
taking the place of 
from the OG build scarf pawmot while not as insane of speed control or free with changing moves, actually does damage and threatens thing especially with tera electric double shocks in terrain, CC is a given and volt switch for a bit of momentum and revival blessing in case we really need to bring someone back
while drifblim still has its matchups the team needed something faster after replacing raichu so sceptile it is, SD leaf blade and acro were simple enough, I tossed on tera blast fire as to not get burned by talonflame and hit steel types since bronzong and orthworm blocked EQ from preforming that task.
Rocker with the special set rocking eject pack draco meteor for momentum
Eject button regen pivot who can manage to occasionally set up late game with calm mind and clutch out a win

Iron Thorns
Flygon
Kilowattrel
Minior
Webs setter. Get webs up if you can/when it's optimal, then wear down opposing Pokemon with your attacks. Pounce is used for the speed drop to not lose to DD Scale Shot Flygon immediately. Tera Ghost is for an emergency spinblocker.
Defog deterrent for the team. Depending on Talonflame's speed investment, you'll either get rid of Talon to keep webs up or get a +2 Special Attack boost if they Defog, letting you break through teams. Tera Blast Ground is used to nail Electric-types such as Iron Thorns, Toxtricity, and Bellibolt.
Mirror Herb Dual Dance PZ is something I've been liking on HO recently. Being able to copy Shell Smash boosts is nice, especially if your opponent leads Torterra turn 1 against your Galvantula, as you can switch in on the predicted Shell Smash to gain the stat boosts. Mirror Herb is also nice to boost pass Cresselia and Sylveon by having Mirror Herb give PZ a free Calm Mind boost. Also, if you don't Tera Ghost and let your opponent spin away Sticky Web, you get a free speed boost. You also still have Nasty Plot and Agility to make PZ scarier. Nothing resists both Tri Attack and Shadow Ball aside from Hisuian Zorua, which is why I have those for the attacking moves. Tera Ghost lets PZ become immune to Fighting and Normal moves, taking advantage of Choice locked mons as well as being immune to Mach Punch as well as Extreme Speed and Fake Out shenanigans on ladder.
: Since Iron Thorns has issues with Swampert and Ground-types in general, I chose Toxicroak, as it excels in weakening these shared checks. The EV spread allows Toxicroak to outspeed Pokemon speedcreeping base 80s like Chandelure and Gallade. Tera Dark simultaneously boosts Sucker Punch and gifts it a Psychic immunity. 
I needed 'flygon insurance' and what mon does it better than bronzong. Normal ev spread, though I did swap out e-quake and psychic for bp and ice spinner in order to always deal with flygon whether it tera steels or tera fires which I believe to be the scariest versions, or if stays untera'd. Rocks and heavy slam are standard options for obvious reasons.
I needed hazard control to help with my grounded mons health, and at first I had tentacruel, but it didn't really fit the team. So, to help with the physical defensive side, I went with tsareena. Standard set, nothing too much different.
I wanted something that could act as a general defensive wall and help a bit with bronzong's longevity, so scream tail was next up. This is probably the go to switch in for most things, as it has reliable recovery and can take most attacks. This is mostly the standard set, though I did swap out encore for t-wave to help iron thorns outspeed things, and still accomplishes the job of stopping setup sweepers.
Finally, I wanted some speed control. Mienshao was the pick due to its regenerator ability and knock off. Standard set, works well against sticky web teams who commonly can't outspeed it.
Dragon Dance was the chosen build and its great! (when it hits.)
Terrain recovery + Def of seed makes here incredibly hard to KO and makes much easier to her setup.
Lee is the unburden mon of choice, speed is aways fundamental in HO. Lee coverage of Fighting Dark and Poison backed by SD fill a lot of checks the team needs.
Its the same as Cress. But instead of calming its mind it dances.
NGL the true start of the team. Once you grab a smash, +2 Bullet Seed on terrain does insane dmg.
Terrain setter , but it can pull its weight specially with SD and Glide.
: This was originally designed around Magneton as a stupid wallbreaker just like Magnezone was back in the day. And, it enjoys destroying Water- and Flying-types for Inteleon, Diancie, Toxicroak, and Vileplume. Naturally, as it just auto-loses against Flgon, I required a hard switch-in, and I settled on Cresselia.
: From here, I added Vileplume, as I liked how it provided a reliable physical wall that stonewalls Paldean Tauros-W. Alternatively, I could see Talonflame being run here, but I dislike the idea of using a frail support Pokemon alongside Choice Scarf Cresselia as physical walls. The team was growing weak to Fire-types, so I tacked on an Inteleon.
: Inteleon helps beat Fire-types offensively, and it can bother teams with its combination of Taunt + Scald + U-turn. However, I still struggled with Fire-type switch-ins and lacked hazards, making me add Diancie.
: Diancie provides hazards, a special wall, and an Incineroar / Chandelure switch-in. It also acts as a more solid Flying-type switch-in, as Magneton ain't taking anything too well.
