Ideas and Improvements for my Gen 9 DUbers Espathra/Calyrex team

Question

Choco (Espathra) (F) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Speed Boost
Shiny: Yes
Tera Type: Dark
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Calm Mind
- Baton Pass
- Protect
- Stored Power
Setup Pokémon to Baton Pass into a Sweeper. (Calyrex or Kyogre. Maybe Raging Bolt in a pinch.)

Grim Reaper (Calyrex-Shadow) @ Life Orb
Ability: As One (Spectrier)
Tera Type: Dark
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Protect
- Astral Barrage
- Expanding Force
- Snarl
Primary sweeper, Espathra, and Psychic terrain boosted Expanding force is a powerful threat that many Pokémon can’t wall.

Nurse Joy (Indeedee-F) @ Focus Sash
Ability: Psychic Surge
Tera Type: Steel
EVs: 248 HP / 8 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Follow Me
- Heal Pulse
- Helping Hand
- Alluring Voice
Support Pokémon that can be a nuisance if not dealt with. Heal Pulse can heal up Calyrex with the countdown to death that is life orb, or make water spout stronger by healing Kyogre.

Dodo (Koraidon) @ Choice Band
Ability: Orichalcum Pulse
Tera Type: Fire
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Close Combat
- Dragon Claw
- Flare Blitz
- Wild Charge
Powerful coverage sweeper and sun setter for Bolt.

Zap (Raging Bolt) @ Leftovers
Ability: Protosynthesis
Tera Type: Flying
EVs: 252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 SpD
Modest Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Thunderclap
- Electroweb
- Draco Meteor
- Protect
Electro Web can slow down the Opponent and sometimes get kills. Draco Meteor for dragon coverage and Thunderclap for sniping kills.

Feesh (Kyogre) @ Life Orb
Ability: Drizzle
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Origin Pulse
- Water Spout
- Blizzard
- Protect
Absolutely insane Espathra sweeper, with the speed boost it can have effectively priority Water Spouts entering the field. Blizzard is to deal with grass types like Sinistcha or Amoongus.

Comments

One thing is, for Indeedee, swap Alluring Voice for Psychic, as it doesn't gain STAB or Terrain boosts from a Fairy move. Also, having two opposing weathers on a team usually disrupts synergy: if you were forced into Kyogre and Koraidon together, one would be practically useless without their weather boosts and with rain or sun weakening their best moves.

Who would be a good replacement for Koraidon? If I need fighting types I’ll get Urshifu, I don’t know what to use for fire coverage then. I don’t want to get rid of Kyogre it’s way too good to replace.

---

Honestly I wouldn’t bother with fire coverage when you have rain because they work against each other anyway.

---

So Urshifu then? The question is rapid strike for the rain boost or single strike for farigaraf shut downs

---

Urshifu (M) @ Life Orb  
Ability: Unseen Fist  
Tera Type: Dark  
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe  
Jolly Nature  
- Wicked Blow  
- Close Combat  
- Detect  
- Fire Punch
Is this a good Koraidon replacement?

---

I honestly can’t help you with a Korraidon replacement. The extent of my DUbers knowledge is the stuff that overlaps with VGC.

---

Rapid Strike would be better as it's Surging Strikes get boosted by Kygore's Rain.
Use this set:

Urshifu-Rapid Strike @ Life Orb
Ability: Unseen Fist
Tera Type: Water
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
-Surging Strikes
-Close Combat
-Detect
-Aqua Jet / U-Turn

---

to much Special attackers... no fake out or anything like that

---

To be fair, they have an Indeedee-F, which would block Fake Out, and Indeedee-F is a good lead pokemon.

---

rillaboom esp AV sets would really counter along with haze or ice spinner Dnite
