SV OU SUDOWOODO + MIMIKYU HO [Peaked #20 1948 during OLT]

Yo I saw the youtube video on this excited to try it out after i finish making my jumpluff team lol. Okidogi and sudo seem to have a clear role I'm less sold on the mimikyuu though it seems like another ghost type would be better fit, though that's just me

From what I can imagine Mimi has arguably the easiest time getting set up out of all Ghosts if not most setup sweepers currently available in OU, Disguise ability should make this clear enough. Other ghosts in the current OU VR would include Dragapult which is also frail and doesnt get much direct use out of DD as far as I know, Sinistcha which is more leaning into fat and probably doesnt hit sufficiently hard, and Ceruledge which has a very exploitable Fire secondary typing in a meta ruled by fat Grounds.

Ceruledge could maybe be considered but i'm confident it has a much worse time than Mimikyu does, dual ghosts serve the extra role of Spinblocking, and a Ghost who dies to spinners immediately is not a great spinblocker IMHO

Not very experienced on the meta so this is more theorycrafting from my shorter experience but running this team i feel setting up mimi is a breeze, only the sweep potential afterwards is kinda up in the air

Yeah Mimikyu sounds like such a meme but I think it's actually viable, ghost is imo the best type in the game and anti-HO tech is very useful in gen 9 (priority, phazing, TR, unaware, encore, etc) hence disguise has a lot of value this gen. Tera ghost + spikes allow Mimikyu to patch up its main weakness of having 90 base attack but it still definitely has issues when running into bootspam stuff or fast mons that resist sneak.

This post kinda details why the other ghosts are not great picks on this team, ceruledge would be better offensively but lacks much defensive utility (checks moth but the goat sudowoodo helps with that), pult and sinistcha lack offensive synergy with the rest of the squad since this team focuses on breaking down mons like :landorus-therian: :gliscor: :great tusk: :skarmory: :moltres: :zamazenta:. Pult kinda works but then you're much weaker to fairies.
