I used: Orthworm, Iron Valiant, and Skeledirge
My Opponent used: Magnezone, Heracross, and Azumarill
Stadium: Pokémon League
Battle BGM: Star Barrage

With my opponent's team having some of the top Pokémon in online battles, and a full team of Shiny Pokémon, I did like what strategy my opponent had with those Pokémon.
When I saw Magnezone leading, I wasn't sure if it had Magnet Pull, which was why I decided to Terastallize Orthworm right away, and I did go with the Electric Tera Type, because combined with Earth Power, this gives Orthworm no weakness. I did see the Magnezone was hitting very hard, which led me to believe it had Analytic, which increases the power of its moves by 30% when it moves last, I was surprised how much damage it dealt to Orthworm, even with the Electric Tera Type, this Magnezone could be holding a Choice Specs.
I decided to get in more with Iron Valiant, and one thing I didn't go over in the previous video is that in my online battles, I can only have one Paradox Pokémon, and I didn't want to use a full team of them, but it might change whenever we get a later format which allows even Restricted Legendary Pokémon, much like what Sword & Shield did, because what I did in my later Sword & Shield online battles, I only allowed two Legendary Pokémon per team, and tried balancing my team with underused Pokémon to make it not look too overpowered, and if I used a Legendary Pokémon that was in the Uber tier, it was the only Legendary Pokémon I could have on the team, and the rest of the team had to be Pokémon that were in the lower tiers, like RU or lower.
Going over the rest of my opponent's Pokémon, I did like the choice of using Heracross, as this isn't a Pokémon that sees use lately, but with the Flame Orb and Guts, it does make a dangerous opponent, and there was Azumarill, which did hold a Sitrus Berry, but I didn't see it use Belly Drum, it could be because I had Iron Valiant active during them, and Moonblast would take away at least half of Azumarill's HP, and even after using Belly Drum, I would finish off Azumarill with Shadow Sneak. I do like how Shiny Azumarill is yellow, desite its pre-evolved forms being green, and how Azumarill and its pre-evolved forms are normally blue.
I don't know why I went with Skeledirge for this battle, it was mostly in case my opponent sent in Dragonite, but I was surprised by what happened in the end of the battle, not to give away who ends up winning, but I did see that most of my opponent's Pokémon are weak to Iron Valiant, but at least my opponent used Azumarill to stand up to my own Pokémon, don't know how different things would be if my opponent used any of the two Dragon-type Pokémon.
