At a glance, your team seems weak to substitute Heatran. Thundurus hits some defensive benchmarks but is very underwhelming offensively with this spread. In my opinion, given the fast-paced nature of your team you could use some more offense. If you feel like soft-resetting for a new Thundurus...

I hesitate to say this given your opinion on the genies, but if you change your mind, AV landorus-t does many of the things Granbull does but with better bulk, better offenses, a better speed tier and arguably better typing. It's S-rank for a reason :/

So the thing is that Persian is easily 2hko'd by Rock Slide. Other Landorus checks are quite a bit bulkier (like Milotic). keeping a mon that outspeeds Landorus-T or otherwise checks it is very important - I consider Milotic a sort of soft-check as it discourages Lando-T given its amazing power...

Will-O-Wisp on Sableye would allow you to beat Kangaskhan 1v1 and greatly expand Sableye's utility. Right now it seems fairly useless against Landorus, Terrakion and a good number of bulkier mons. Will-O-Wisp is a great move to cripple physical attackers and get chip damage on bulkier mons. I...

Recently I had the first VGC Premier Challenge of my life. Knowing that I would be playing players of a variety of skill levels, I wanted to build a versatile team with some strategies that could take advantage of lower skill levels of newer players. Because I was very afraid of opposing gimmick...

Serperior: Keep BL

Butterfree isn't categorically bad, but is mostly outclassed by Vivillon. The marginal difference in bulk however means that Butterfree can survive priority that Vivillon wouldn't. Of course, I mean the quiver dance, sleep power, hurricane bug buzz set, not the weird infestation set... :P

I think it was mentioned earlier in the thread that what makes Serperior overwhelming is the fact that Leaf Storm is both a boosting move and a very powerful STAB attack. This gives you the room for glare and coverage moves. +2 for almost any move is really strong, even if it's a weak move like...

Confirming as aqbf

Another, somewhat nonviable terrakion switchin could be chesnaught. Unfortunately with Hera's stab megahorn back in play, I don't think Chesnaught will be able to do much of use against other pokemon anymore (even less than it already did). Edgequake is really good and stab close combat to back...
