Can you give a short explanation on why you chose each Pokemon?
This team originally started as a triple Intimidate core (Landorus-T, Mega Manectric, Incineroar). While Incineroar was solid defensively, it slowed the team down and didn’t contribute enough momentum, especially without offensive investment. Since I already had a special tank and Fire type in Assault Vest Volcanion, Incineroar became redundant.
Kommo-o replaced it to add an actual win condition and a way to break and close against stall, while keeping offensive pressure high. The team as a whole is built around momentum, forced switches, and capitalizing on chip damage rather than prolonged defensive play.
Any suggestions are welcome — I’m still refining my play after returning to competitive Pokémon.
Please don't use AI.
I'm sorry. I got carried away and I thought I cannot explain the roles of my pokemon in a professional competitive language and terms so I used it to refine my words....the thoughts and the team is my own, I have practiced with it a few times,  but I was afraid of my answer not being understood as I wanted it to be
You're all good. Doing your best to explain your own thought process is infinitely more helpful when giving feedback. LLMs just can't capture the intent behind the team as well as you can.
