This is a weird concept I thought of a few days ago and finally made a team for it, so let's get started.


The Zonginator (Bronzong) @ Mental Herb
Ability: Levitate
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 SpD
Sassy Nature
IVs: 0 Spe
- Gyro Ball
- Trick Room
- Stealth Rock
- Reflect

since the idea of this team is to use Electric terrain and Trick Room, we obviously need a good trick room setter, and who better to do it than DUU's only gravity-defying bell, Bronzong! Gyro Ball for STAB, Trick Room to reverse the speed order, Stealth Rock for hazards and to break Focus Sash, and Reflect to boost our weaker defense. bronzong is probably the best pokemon to fill this role because it has levitate to ignore ground moves, which our team needs.


Lurchin' Urchin (Pincurchin) (M) @ Aguav Berry
Ability: Electric Surge
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA
Relaxed Nature
IVs: 0 Atk / 0 Spe
- Rising Voltage
- Scald
- Spikes
- Recover

Pincurchin is our Electric Terrain setter since it is slower than Tapu Koko... and Tapu Koko isn't allowed in DUU anyway. Rising Voltage for STAB plus the Electric Terrain boost, Scald for coverage on Ground, Fire, and Rock, and to get burns, Spikes for even more hazard damage with your sneaky pebbles, and Recover to heal off damage.


Moon lady (Cresselia) @ Leftovers
Ability: Levitate
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
Sassy Nature
IVs: 0 Atk / 0 Spe
- Ice Beam
- Light Screen
- Trick Room
- Helping Hand

Cresselia is the backup to Bronzong. Ice Beam for coverage on Flying, Ground, Grass, and Dragon, Light Screen to boost special defense, Trick Room to reverse the speed order, and Helping Hand to boost your allies' attacks.


Respect the zolt (Arctozolt) @ Choice Band / Life Orb / Assault Vest
Ability: Volt Absorb
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Atk / 8 SpD
Brave Nature
IVs: 0 Spe
- Bolt Beak
- Icicle Crash
- Stomping Tantrum
- Low Kick

Unfortunately, Arctozolt and his frosty brother, Arctovish, and sorely outclassed by their reptilian cousins, but not for this team. Bolt Beak for massive STAB damage as well as the Electric terrain boost, and potentially a Helping Hand boost from Cresselia, Icicle Crash for STAB, Stomping tantrum for coverage on Fire, Rock, Steel, Electric, and Poison, and Low Kick for Coverage on Rock, Steel, Dark, and Ice. I chose Arctozolt over Dracozolt because Arctozolt is slower, bulkier, and hits Ground and Grass types really hard. You can run Choice Band for maximum damage output, Life Orb so you can switch moves, or Assault Vest for extra special bulk. Even though you would be losing power without a damage boosting item, electric terrain is basically a free choice item for electric moves, and most of the time you are gonna be spamming Bolt Beak.


Tree? (Xurkitree) @ Aguav Berry
Ability: Beast Boost
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 144 Def / 112 SpA
Relaxed Nature
IVs: 0 Atk / 0 Spe
- Energy Ball
- Rising Voltage
- Hypnosis
- Calm Mind

Now, this is why I chose to do this team. Xurkitree is the strongest special attacking electric type in the entire game, and it gets Beast Boost, one of the best abilities in the game. Energy Ball for coverage, Rising Voltage for absolutely ridiculous STAB damage, Hypnosis to allow Xurkitree to set up, and Calm Mind to boost both special stats.


Red lobsters (Clawitzer) (M) @ Life Orb
Ability: Mega Launcher
Shiny: Yes
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpA
Quiet Nature
IVs: 0 Atk / 0 Spe
- Water Pulse
- Dragon Pulse
- Heal Pulse
- Terrain Pulse

Clawitzer is here to kill the Ground types that threaten this team. Water Pulse for STAB, Dragon Pulse for coverage on... well... you get the point. Heal Pulse for big healing for teammates, and Terrian Pulse for coverage on Water and Flying.

Anyway, that's the entire team. I would also like to mention that you can use Vikavolt instead of one of the other mons because it has a great Special attack, can kill grass types, and has Levitate. please send advice because people don't really respond to my posts.

Edit: I forgot to send the pokepaste in case someone wanted to try the team. https://pokepast.es/8370a585cc49d5fe

i do appreciate the nicknames :)
I think this team might need a second Electric Terrain setter. If Pinchurchin faints, you won't be able to set Electric Terrain again.
Magnezone might be able to work, but it's double weakness to ground is rather annoying. Its great SpA is helpful and it does fits into the Trick Room speed tier, though. Melmetal, However, is an amazing Trick Room pick and randomly gets Electric Terrain. Its bulk, attack power and good coverage could really be a game changer for this team.

Edit: Alternatively, you could give Xurkitree Electric Terrain instead of Hypnosis. Just depends on what you want to do.
