I used: Crobat, Wash Rotom, Thievul, and Centiskorch
My Opponent used: Charizard, Lapras, Eternatus, and Zamazenta
Stadium: Standard
Battle BGM: Peony

Here is your battle of the week where I fight against a player that uses what seems to be a team used in the main story, or a team that doesn't look designed for online battles, and my opponent has both Zamazenta and Eternatus on his team, and I have read about how Zamazenta in its Hero of Many Battles form should be OU instead of Uber because it doesn't get an Attack boost when it enters battle unlike Zacian, and even though it is a Fighting-type that gets a boost to Defense, Zamazenta cannot learn Body Press, which could have been a great move for Zamazenta.
My opponent didn't have a full team, which isn't required for online battles, but I don't know why my opponent has a Machoke on his team, I guess he didn't have any way to trade, but you can catch Machamp in Max Raid Battles, there has even been some Max Raid Battle Events where you can get a Gigantamax Machamp, so you don't really need to trade in order to get Machamp if you can find one in Max Raid Battles.
This is the same Crobat that I have used in a Single Battle team, and she has Tailwind, which is a very helpful move in Double Battles, and Crobat is one of the faster Tailwind users, and I gave her Haze as a way to counter my opponent's stat boosts through Dynamax, because most Max Moves boost the user's stats and decrease opponent's stats, and this is where Haze comes in, but the downside to having Haze on Crobat is so it can interfere with my Thievul's Special Attack boost from the Throat Spray.
While Thievul and Crobat can outspeed threats after Tailwind, and after Thievul's Unburden activates, the Tailwind can even support Rotom and Centiskorch, as both aren't that fast to begin with, and from what I have checked, Crobat is tied with Aerodactyl for the fastest Tailwind user, this is not counting Prankster users like Whimsicott or Tornadus, as they are the best users of the move Tailwind, but I like giving underrated Pokémon a chance in online battles, and I don't see too many players ever use Crobat in online battles, and while I have seen Thievul used by players with non-competitive teams, it can be a surprising Pokémon if you know how to use one.
