I used: Sandy Shocks, Florges, and Corviknight
My Opponent used: Bellibolt, Ditto, and Talonflame
Stadium: Mesagoza
Battle BGM: Ruinous Legend

My opponent in this match has a team that has a bunch of Pokémon that are rarely ever used, like Bellibolt and Ditto, and while there was Talonflame, it had the standard level up moves. I did see my opponent had a Slaking, which is a very tricky Pokémon to use in Single Battles due to its Ability, but once it does attack, it can hit very hard.
As with the team I use in this battle, some of the Pokémon that I use are some that I have been waiting to use for a while, Florges being one example, I did plan on using one in an earlier online battle in this game, but I never got around to using it, and I did go with the Blue Flower form, as that is my favourite out of Florges's forms. The set I went with has Calm Mind, and I chose Tera Blast with a Fire Tera Type, that way Florges has a way to take on Steel-type opponents, and Giga Drain is there to heal up.
I bring in Sandy Shocks for the Paradox Pokémon, and I went with an Assault Vest for the item, and it has Thunderbolt and Earth Power for the main moves, and Volt Switch if I need to switch out, Tera Blast is there whenever I decide to Terastallize Sandy Shocks, and it does have an Ice Tera Type as a way to take on Ground-type opponents.
Then we have Corviknight, and this is the first online battle in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet where I use a Generation 8 Pokémon, this is because I like having Pokémon in special Poké Balls, usually Apricorn Balls, or some that match the colour scheme of the Pokémon, and as I have almost every Generation 8 Pokémon in Apricorn Balls in Pokémon HOME, that is why I am holding off on Pokémon that was previously available in Sword & Shield, and instead using the Apricorn Balls you get from Porto Marinada on new Pokémon introduced in this generation, as well as some that were not in Sword & Shield. Corviknight takes on a defensive role, his moves are Iron Defense and Body Press, which is a strategy that I liked using with Corviknight back in Sword & Shield, he has Brave Bird for his Flying-type move, and Roost to last longer in battle, but the move was nerfed as it has 5 PP, or 8 maximum if you use some PP Ups on the move. I decided to go with a Tera Type that works very well with Corviknight, while Fighting is listed as being good for powering up Body Press, Dragon is very notable as that turns Corviknight's weaknesses into resistances, but then again Corviknight's typing does give it a good amount of resistances, Steel is considered to be the best defensive typing, unless it is part of a dual type with Rock to give it a 4x weakness to common types like Fighting and Ground.
