Hey y’all, I’m trying to build my second team, built around Mega Glimmora as it does well against Sun and Floette, probably the top two threats this season. And while it does well against those comps, it struggles sometimes into various compositions, including certain Snow and Trick Room compositions, as well as some gimmicks.

Essentially this is a more defensive tailroom team (primarily Tailwind).

I think that Glimmora, A. Ninetales, Corviknight, and Sinistcha all are pulling their weight, but if there are better alternative compositions, do let me know. I think my weak links here are Washtom and Kingambit, as they were the wild slots I was playing around with. Washtom has done me well into Rain and Sand comps, though.

I have spotted a lot of ground weaknesses, and if they kill some of my key mons I’m dead most of the time. I’m also very specially focused, so light screen or aurora veil is threatening as well.

On thing I’m sure of is that my Trick Room mode is really weak. Because my mons are mostly not negative speed, and I don’t have anything to directly stop Trick Room, I can struggle unless I perfectly stall it out with Corviknight and Sinistcha.

I was considering a secondary Mega because I also think my offensive pressure is quite low. I was looking at Trick Room megas like Gardevoir or especially Chesnaught, but I’m not too sure if they’d fit the team best.

Any advice is appreciated! Hovering around 1750 elo right now, so the team might be fine it might just be a skill issue on my part, since I am new to the team and I do notice I do a few mistakes in games.
