Finally a person that actually has viable sets. Look at literally ANY other RMT post and you’ll understand my pain. I’ve seen Thunderbolt Gyarados and I have PTSD now.
That's exactly how I felt last year, but then I wrote that Google Doc and everything magically became more bearable.
Why is it that people never include their playstyle in their tags? Hyper Offense, Balance(d), and Stall.
Some people don't really know what playstyle their teams are. If not building around a playstyle helps them win, then why should you try to force them to do so?
Because it helps if you like playing Hyper Offense, and you only want to rate teams that are HO. You could click the tag “hyper-offense” and see all the questions tagged “hyper-offense”. Besides, it isn’t very hard to at least figure out what playstyle your team is. I never said anyone had to build around a certain playstyle. Also, to be honest, I can’t see ANYBODY winning with these trash sets LMAO.
I've never seen anyone who like rating certain playstyles over certain other ones. And if the sets are really as trash as you said, then there probably is no playstyle.
Well this RMT is mostly fine. I mean the majority of the other RMTs. Actually, you’re right though. Some sets were so trashy and convoluted I cant even tell what they’re supposed to accomplish.
The only things that stand out are: Maybe add Earthquake or Dragon Claw over both Double Edge and Facade. Having two flying type moves isn't that great. Agreed both have their utility but you'll get stumped by something that resists Flying.

Another thing is that two of Xerneas' moves have shaky accuracy, not something I'd feel comfortable with. Thunderbolt is a little wekaer but more reliable. Or, instead, I suggest Psyshock so you're not completely walled by a special wall. Another move I've seen used is Ingrain to prevent that Groudon from roaring away your Geomancy boost.

Apart from that, your team looks pretty solid. Good luck.
I think thunder is there to check Kyogre, so its accuracy doesn't matter.
That does make a lot of sense, thanks. TIL.
