- Sleep TalkTrying to find a way to succeed with this core, I decided that HO would be the way to go with Mega Houndoom and Toxicroak's excellent setup potential. In the absence of Azelf, Aerodactyl was the obvious choice for a lead. It's the most reliable rocker in the tier, beats forre, and double edges to avoid hazard removal. I stuck with adamant Toxicroak from the dish, with surprisingly good results (as seen in the sparrow replay). I was also happy to see that it beat support Crobat with +2 suckerpunch after rocks, always with brave bat, and sometimes with no chip versus support. Mega Houndoom was slightly harder to find success with. It either sweeps or does very little, but destiny bond and having a hard check to standard Celebi were excellent. Snorlax was the real hero. In the meta of Celebi, Drei, Sylv, and Conk, a sjocking amount of teams aren't prepared for standard curselax. Further, the dish and Celebi are excellent for clearing the way. Speaking of which, Colbur Celebi seemed like the obvious choice as a necessary conk check aside from the fact that it beats krook with giga drain and hydreigons that aren't smart enough to u-turn with gleam. Finally, though neither dish takes super effective damage from sylveon, Escavalier seemed like an obvious choice in the last spot to resist sylveon, celebi, and fit with the setup theme.Toxicroak wiping a weird sparrow ladder team:

Hey Kamer your second replay shows another team if you don't have 3 replays by the 20th it won't get accepted :X
