Here's my team:

Moltres-Galar @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Berserk
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Dark
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Substitute
- Nasty Plot
- Fiery Wrath
- Hurricane

Main sweeper, first turn I substitute, next I nasty plot, finally if I'm still high health I tera dark and spam fiery wrath. Sound based moves are a problem tho

Whimsicott @ Focus Sash
Ability: Prankster
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Dark
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Tailwind
- Encore
- Fake Tears
- Helping Hand

Sets up tailwind, encores fake out users or tailwind/trick room kinda thing. Fake tears really bulky Pokemon so that they cant be a threat to moltres and helping hand just for some extra damage

Okidogi @ Assault Vest
Ability: Guard Dog
Tera Type: Steel
EVs: 252 HP / 116 Atk / 140 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Drain Punch
- Poison Jab
- Knock Off
- Ice Punch

coverage for like 11/18 types I think and is just a great bulky attacker who can cook everyone. just realized while editing this is has 0 attack ivs idk why I did that I was sleepy when I made this team. just good support

Heatran @ Leftovers
Ability: Flash Fire
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Grass
EVs: 252 HP / 116 Def / 140 SpA
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Heat Wave
- Flash Cannon
- Earth Power
- Protect

more coverage and a secondary attacker if moltres goes down

Rotom-Wash @ Sitrus Berry
Ability: Levitate
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Grass
EVs: 252 HP / 116 Def / 140 SpA
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Thunderbolt
- Hydro Pump
- Will-O-Wisp
- Protect

yet again more coverage and support

Incineroar @ Safety Goggles
Ability: Intimidate
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Grass
EVs: 252 HP / 156 Def / 100 SpD
Careful Nature
- Fake Out
- Flare Blitz
- Parting Shot
- Knock Off

guess what, more support just a standard bulky incineroar I just spam switch it out to get as much intimidate and stuff

A few issues I see are:

That I only have one tailwind setter, but I couldn't find another tailwind setter who would work on this team, and I feel like every Pokemon here is important.

EVs might be bad. I was trying to make sure everything was bulky enough to survive and support while Moltres sets up.

Maybe better secondary attacker options? If Moltres goes down, I have heatran, rotom wash, and okidogi, as well as incineroar, but he's not that good with his evs. Although they kinda cover everything, I bet there's better options.

Moltres takes a long time to set up. I usually start turn 1 by sending out whimsicott and Moltres and tailwind and substitute. Next turn I either encore an opponent if they use fake out or trick room or something or fake tears a bulky Pokemon or switch out, and then nasty plot on Moltres. Finally third turn I usually helping hand if whimsicott is still in or attack with other Pokemon that might be in and terastalize dark and fiery wrath it usually kills pretty much everything.

I don't know how to improve this team so I'm looking for help from pros.

I'm about 1260 elo on Pokemon showdown in DOU.

@appledrapeau1402 hope this helps

I haven’t played dou before so I can’t make a full rate but there are some small changes I’d suggest. On moltres drop substitute because it’s seems kinda over kill for setup and instead use protect change the item to life orb for a damage boost. On whimsicott I’d suggest dropping helping hand or fake tears for protect so you don’t lose sash to fake out users
Can you add a description for each of your mons as per rule 2.1? I understand the strat with whimsicott and moltres but there's not much context on the other pokemon. Like this, I can try to upgrade the team much more. Thanks!
yeah ill add some description give me a bit of time and hopefully it can help. @r-the-great i will probably drop fake tears but i think that sitrus berry might be better just because if it gets low and beserk activates then i can just heal up to about half, and if i get low again another beserk boost.
Oh yeah that totally makes sense. I kinda forgot berserker was a ability lol
@appledrapeau1402 gave descs
If sound moves are an issue, maybe Throat Chop on Incineroar over Knock Off could help, although Knock Off could still be better.
