I used: Cursola, Garbodor, and Thundurus (Therian Forme)
My Opponent used: Whimsicott, Gourgeist, and Ludicolo
Stadium: Turrfield
Battle BGM: Legend 1

I seem to come across Monotype teams lately in most of my online battles, and my opponent in this case is a Mono-Grass team, and I liked my opponent's choice of leading with Whimsicott and using Tailwind to boost the Speed of the rest of my opponent's team, and Ludicolo being a possible Dynamax option with setting up rain with Max Geyser, and being faster than almost everything on my team with Swift Swim, that is some good strategy with a Mono-Grass team.
My Cursola isn't anything new, as I have used him before, he is mostly the same as before, he has Shadow Ball, Earth Power, and Burning Jealousy for some good Special moves, and Strength Sap to restore HP. Cursola is one of my least favourite Gen 8 Pokémon, and I am aware that there are some that like Cursola's design and concept, but I don't find it that interesting of a Pokémon myself, and this is one Pokémon in which I prefer the pre-evolved form, because Galarian Corsola did use to be a huge deal in the competitive scene in Gen 8 back when it was a great Eviolite user and it can withstand hits and use Strength Sap to heal itself while lowering the target's Attack stat, but now with every Legendary Pokémon back in the game, Galarian Corsola has fallen all the way down to even the lowest tier, but it was one of the best walls in early Sword & Shield online battle.
It was a good thing I picked Garbodor for this fight, which is something I never thought I would say about my least favourite Pokémon, but the team is based around some of my least favourite Pokémon, so I had to include Garbodor on the team, his G-Max Malodor can be useful in poisoning the opponents, specially after my opponent has Dynamaxed, because the poison can help weaken them a bit.
While I have come across a bunch of Monotype teams, I don't know if ever I will list which types I have come across, because I liked my opponent's team choice for a Mono-Grass team.
