SS ou Team (Pex+Gsola+Thorn) ! Help appreciated :)

Hi guys! I've never made a team before, but I have always been interested in building teams to use in-game. I was hoping someone could lend some helpful input to my team as well as tell me what a good lead off might be! Thanks in advance <3

-------The Team------

Ferrothorn-AttackAnimation-XY-3.gif

Ferrothorn @ Leftovers
Ability: Iron Barbs
EVs: 248 HP / 8 Atk / 252 Def
0 Sp

Impish Nature
- Leech Seed
- Power Whip
- Spikes
- Gyro Ball

I have my spiky guy over here to help me set up spikes and in general be very annoying with leech seed. I have gyro ball as a STAB steel type move for coverage. I have been using it as a lead so far, but I am not sure if there is a better option.

Weavile @ Life Orb
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Ice Shard
- Icicle Crash
- Low Kick
- Foul Play

Weavile is my main revenge killer who can get some hard-hitting moves in like that priority Ice Shard. I used to run it with knock off but that is gone now, so if there is a better Pokemon now, I am willing to try some new things out. I have life orb on just to add some more power.

Dragapult @ Choice Specs
Ability: Infiltrator
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Thunderbolt
- Draco Meteor
- Fire Blast
- Shadow Ball

Dragapult here is my Dynamax Pokemon. I use it more as a late-game sweeper who can get out of choice lock which is neat. He hits hard and has some great coverage that I lack, especially in thunderbolt.

Corsola-Galar @ Eviolite
Ability: Cursed Body
EVs: 252 HP / 156 Def / 100 SpD
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Strength Sap
- Will-O-Wisp
- Haze
- Night Shade

Another annoying Pokemon here, but it is one of my favorites. A pretty standard set with will o wisp for burns and strength sap for recovery. I have night shade on as of now but I don't know if hex is better to play off of the burn effect. Also, while I have another stealth rock setter, I am debating running it here because corsola is good against rapid spin users.

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

My stealth rock setter here who makes use of rapid spin as well for clearing hazards. I have never used Excadrill before, but I needed some form of coverage with its ground typing. I have not really experimented with it yet so I don't know if it will do much but I am interested to try.

Toxapex @ Black Sludge
Ability: Regenerator
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Toxic Spikes
- Scald
- Recover
- Toxic

My final annoying Pokemon that I feel works well with Thorn+Gcrosola . He's a good tanky 'mon to help me wall some threats my team is weak against. I have toxic and TSpikes on it just because I never find myself in situations where I have really needed to use Haze, so I prefer crippling with Toxic in most situations. Recover is there for obvious reasons too.


Thanks for taking the time! Again- I'm new here so I don't know of the descriptions give enough to work on, but I try!!
xoxo thanks <3

+Haze/-Toxic Spikes on Toxa, cause of Regenarator
and +Stealth Rock/-Haze on Corsola?
Should make your life a bit easier, because you can switch around with Toxa for Haze if needed.

Since Weavile can't learn Pursuit in SS anymore, I recommend using Mammoswine with Thick Fat. Its the better Ice Attacker atm imo and then replace Excadrill with Grimmsnarl to round up your Team, because Excadrill wthout Sandstorm is just meh.
 
Thanks for the feedback. I have replaced Weavile with the impy thing and made the move changes. I like the team but I know what you mean by it's a basic team. I'll have to experiment with other things too. Thanks again.
