I used: Togedemaru, Aromatisse, Lugia, and Lapras
My Opponent used: Indeedee, Hatterene, Pincurchin, and Calyrex (Ice Rider)
Stadium: Ballonlea
Battle BGM: Battle Tower

In the first battle where I test out a team that sort of makes use of Trick Room, it is not really a Trick Room team I have, while Aromatisse does have that move, she has After You to make her teammates move right away, and most of my other team members are a bit on the faster side or have at least a decent Speed stat, while my opponent's team is a full Trick Room team, as all of the Pokémon on the team are very slow, and I did see my opponent has Ice Rider Calyrex, which is a very dangerous Pokémon on Trick Room teams with that Glacial Lance.
Some of the Pokémon on my team have ways to inflict status conditions in some way, Togedemaru has Nuzzle to paralyze one of the opponent's Pokémon, and Iron Head to inflict flinching, but with my opponent leading with Indeedee and Hatterene, which was a popular lead as Indeedee can use Follow Me to ensure Hatterene sets up Trick Room. I find it unusual to see my opponent using both Pincurchin and Indeedee on the same team, as both have Abilities that set up terrain, so Indeedee is usually the one to lead and make sure Hatterene can set up the Trick Room.
I put one Restricted Legendary Pokémon on my team, and this is not a Ranked Battle, so Dynamax is allowed, because in the current season of Ranked Battles, Dynamax cannot be used. For Lugia's moves, it has Aeroblast and Earth Power for dealing damage, Recover to heal off some HP, and Protect so that I have a Pokémon that can use it in a Double Battle. It has a Weakness Policy, which is a good item on Lugia, as it normally doesn't have that high of a Special Attack stat, and Multiscale and its great defensive stats make sure it can take at least one super effective hit, and that does make it a very powerful Dynamax user. I do have Lapras for my Gigantamax user, as she can use G-Max Resonance to set up Aurora Veil without the need of using Hail, Lapras is one of my main users of Dynamax on the team, it's usually the Gigantamax form that is preferred, because taking Max Hailstorm over G-Max Resonance isn't worth doing because it does provide support to teammates.
