I have made a new team, and it does have some under-used Pokémon, as well as some top-tier ones, so I do like to balance things out when using different Pokémon.
My opponent's team contains some of the most powerful Pokémon in competitive battling, like Excadrill, Gyarados, Dragapult, and a few others, and I was surprised to see Horn Drill, not sure if that is meant to be a popular option on Excadrill, because I don't use 1-hit KO moves.
My new team contains some interesting Pokémon, and about the Gardevoir on the team, this is the same Gardevoir that I have used in my past online battles, so starting things off is my Galarian Corsola, this thing is a defensive force, the reason is that Galarian Corsola has some good defensive stats, and because Galarian Corsola can evolve, the Eviolite makes her very resilient, and with Cursed Body, there is a chance she can Disable the last move her opponent used on her. In terms of competitive usability, Galarian Corsola sees more use than its evolved form, the reason is because as a Corsola, it has base 100 Defense and Special Defense, and with the Eviolite, it is an unbreakable wall, while its evolved form Cursola sacrifices 50 points of Defense in exchange for a very high Special Attack stat, it's not that Cursola is bad or anything, it is a good Special sweeper in Trick Room, it's just that Eviolite Galarian Corsola is one of the best walls in the game.
Galarian Corsola can use moves like Will-O-Wisp and Strength Sap, which are very handy moves as it can nerf Physical attackers, as well as heal up Corsola, so that way she can remain in battle for a long time, it's surprising how terrible Corsola was for a long time, and then it got a Galarian Form which ended up being one of the most overpowered walls in the game.
Then for the rest of my team, Bisharp is in my top 10 favourite Pokémon from Gen 5, he does have Defiant, so anyone trying to lower Bisharp's stats will result in an Attack boost, so that way Bisharp can deal heavy damage. Throat Chop, Iron Head, and Sucker Punch are good move options, although Bisharp does get some good Physical moves, like Brick Break, Psycho Cut, Stone Edge, X-Scissor, and many others, so it is a solid Pokémon with that Dark/Steel-type and high Attack stat.
Milotic is my other defensive Pokémon on the team, she has Marvel Scale, so any status condition will give Milotic a Defense boost, and I have read that Dragon Breath does see competitive use for the paralysis chance, but I find Ice Beam to be more reliable. Haze is there to reset any stat buffs to the opponent, so it is useful in most situations.
My opponent picks some very powerful Physical attackers, and I have heard about Gyarados being one of the most powerful Pokémon to Dynamax, because Bounce will give it Max Airstream, and if Gyarados has Moxie, that will allow Gyarados to sweep entire teams, this Gyarados didn't have Moxie, but it was still a tough opponent.
