I used: Golisopod, Gengar, and Porygon2
My Opponent used: Crobat, Inteleon, and Charizard
Stadium: Standard
Battle BGM: Marnie

While I do like seeing players using Pokémon that aren't commonly used in online battles, I do see a good amount of Charizard being used online, Inteleon is usually through players using non-competitive teams, and I did see he had Crobat, Falinks, and Centiskorch, those Pokémon are ones that I rarely ever come across, or almost never, because I believe this is the first time I have come across a player that has used Crobat in any of my online battles, and it is a Shiny Crobat, not a fan of the colour scheme for it, but at least it is a decent Pokémon.
I usually find it best to lead with Golisopod in most fights, this isn't a Pokémon that you would normally lead with, but if I want to make use of her Emergency Exit, it is at least there. Porygon2 isn't really new or anything, I did use this one in a Double Battle team, and I adjusted its moves to work in Single Battles, so it has Ice Beam and Discharge for good type coverage, Tri Attack for STAB, and Recover for a healing move, and it has an Eviolite, basically the only item you would ever see on Porygon2 whenever one is used in an online battle. Discharge is there for its higher paralysis chance, and while it is helpful against Crobat and Inteleon, as both have high Speed, that can take them out in one hit, as they don't have good Special Defense to take Discharge.
I brought Gengar back for another online battle, and this time he can Gigantamax, I am not a fan of Gigantamax Gengar's design, I feel it's almost like Mega Gengar, but even more terrifying, and this is one of the few Gigantamax forms that I have not yet used in an online battle until now. G-Max Terror is kind of like Shadow Tag, so I guess it's kind of like how Mega Gengar worked in previous games, but for the set I went with, he has a Choice Specs to boost the power of his Special moves, like Shadow Ball, Sludge Wave, and Thunderbolt, and I gave him Trick to screw up opponents by giving the Choice Specs to them. I did consider Destiny Bond and Focus Sash on Gengar, but if he is one of my Gigantamax options, it's not really easy to do, because if a Pokémon's main role is to use Destiny Bond, then you shouldn't use your Dynamax on that Pokémon.
