I like how interesting my opponent's team is, although it does confuse me why my opponent has an Alolan Vulpix on the team, I'm guessing that thing's there for Snow Warning, and she is that likely to have an Eviolite, but then again I'm not even sure if that Ninetales even has Drought, but neither were used, so I am sure this is just a team my opponent put to use, and he's not very likely a competitive battler, and from seeing Earth Power from Swampert, this could be one you get through Dynamax Adventures, and he did have some questionable moves, like some sort of Steel-type move on Lapras, while Max Steelspike does make Lapras last longer in battle, it's not recommended, the few Steel-type moves Lapras can learn are Smart Strike, Iron Tail, or Iron Head, and all of them are Physical moves, and Lapras does have equal Attack and Special Attack, so it is possible to use a Physical Lapras with Dragon Dance or Curse, but the only Physical Ice-type moves it could get are Ice Shard and Avalanche, so having Special moves are the best it can do in battle.
I usually tend to lead with Indeedee in battle, because the Psychic Surge and getting in as much damage as possible with Expanding Force can help in the start of the battle. I get to test out Golurk in the fight, it has a Weakness Policy, which is good when Dynamaxed, as Golurk is weak to a lot of types, and it is a bit on the slow side. Golurk does get a lot of good Physical moves, but the ones I went with are Earthquake and Poltergeist for powerful STAB options, while Stone Edge and Dynamic Punch provide great coverage, and this Golurk does have No Guard, so that will make sure both Dynamic Punch and Stone Edge always hit, if I had Iron Fist on Golurk, then I would go with one of the Elemental Punches, either Ice Punch or Thunder Punch, while Close Combat would be used in place of Dynamic Punch. I'm sure that even with Iron Fist, Poltergeist will still hit harder than Shadow Punch, although the difference is that Poltergeist will only work if the target is holding an item, but it was a great boost to a lot of Physical Ghost-type Pokémon, and Golurk is one of those Pokémon that benefits from the addition of Poltergeist.
