Editorial sample teams
Tyranitar's Sand Stream doubles Excadrill's Speed via Sand Rush and chips everything that isn't Rock, Ground or Steel. Garchomp takes your one Mega slot, Incineroar's Intimidate and Fake Out buy setup turns, and Gholdengo (Good as Gold) walls the status moves that would slow the sweep.
