"When torrential water tosses boulders, it is because of its momentum. When the strike of a hawk breaks the body of its prey, it is because of timing."

The basis of this team is dealing flat out punishment.
The first three pokemon are self-explanatory and more imporatntly, form the VoltTurn core. I've tried something new (atleast for me) and given three pokemon switching moves, which is why this team has more momentum and since these thre in combination have no real weakness, the utility is deceptively good.
The rest are for supporting and covering blindsides.
Weavile is a good revenge killer that can rid me of Greninja and many other pokemon, and is also unexpected.
Latios is one of the stars of the team. Since my team has a Stealth Rock weakness, doesn't appreciate any forms of entry hazards, and for the smoother functioning of the core, it carries Defog to cure all of it in one go, while also remaining true to the title of Hyperoffense.
Mawile is my premier sweeper, it can devastate entire teams if left unchecked, so yeah self-explantory. Also to help me shake off troublesome pokemon like Ferrothorn, Scizor, Forretress and Skarmory, (all of which can cause problems) with FIre Fang, and can set up to let me checkmate my opponent.
As always, feel free to place your opinions, advices and replacements on my team, because as I said, it's an Extempore team, which I made the instant I felt like it without giving a second thought.
