  Ever since I started dabbling into VGC my interest was always to find some unique anti meta tech that can carry me. Already being trash at the game way back then, most, if not all of my teams were quite hot garbage. My teambuilding journey for the last two teams was relatively standard, given a few unique sets and a Maushold but I still had the itch to use something anti meta that I built from scratch. This was surely going to be taught in a format with such a high power level, however to my advantage I did have a lot of knowledge on what the team compositions were and how I can possibly answer them. I needed somewhere to start and my mind immediately went to Miraidon. idea I thought that miraidon was a strong contender to build a nice and easy anti meta squad around. There are a few reasons for thinking of Miraidon as my restricted of choice: Choice of Restricted: ·     The most offensive Pokémon are already a stable part of the metagame, cue all the monstrous restricted legendr

The journey of a new team started with the ideation to put my absolute #1 favorite to the test and teambuild with Reshiram (yes the final team is of a lunala but i have to explain the context). When I was initially exploring the idea I was quite fascinated by it because it felt it this mon had its place, particularly due to the rise in Zamazenta’s popularity. Being a bulky dragon type at its nature also allowed it to take those big electric type attacks from Miraidon which were quite the big hype in the moment. I laid out many ideas, out of which the ones I tested included going back to a Orthworm pairing with Reshiram which felt irrelevant due to a lack of Groudon teams in the current format (I don’t think they are coming back at this point). Testing various variants of Reshiram including the assault vest versions, the ones with safety goggles, at a point I was looking into a fire spin + yawn combo with it being placed beside dondozo… a team that featured Enamorous and Thundurus pai
