I used: Vaporeon, Zapdos, and Bewear
My Opponent used: Dragapult, Kyogre, and Urshifu (Rapid Strike Style)
Stadium: Wyndon
Battle BGM: Calyrex 2

There isn't much to go over with my opponent if the team selected for this battle were all Pokémon that are some of the most used, like Dragapult and Urshifu, and as Restricted Legendary Pokémon is allowed in the current format, in Ranked Battles that is, I am doing Casual Battles, where you can allow as many Restricted Legendary Pokémon as you want, and Dynamax would be banned in this season of Ranked Battles, my opponent has Kyogre.
Dragapult isn't anything different, but it was interesting to see a Physical Attacking Dragapult in Single Battles, while it is possible to use Dragapult as a Physical Attacker, it can learn a wide variety of moves and it can be used however you want to, I have seen some Dragapult sets use moves like Reflect and Light Screen to help its teammates, while taking advantage of its high Speed stat.
I wanted to get in a battle where I at least use Vaporeon, his main use is to switch in against Water-type Pokémon and use Yawn on them, but against Kyogre, this isn't an easy task, as Kyogre is one of few Water-type Pokémon that can learn an Electric-type move, in this case, Kyogre can use Thunder. Zapdos's moves were designed around Dynamax, as Max Airstream from Hurricane is very powerful and allows Zapdos to outspeed about everything, and I picked Bewear in case my opponent picked Tyranitar, and as another option for taking Dragapult's moves, as Bewear does have Fluffy for his Ability to reduce the damage from contact moves, and my opponent's Dragapult has Physical moves, and Bewear being immune to Phantom Force does make it a good switch in against Dragapult.
It was good seeing my opponent uses Urshifu, because while it is a very powerful Pokémon in battle, I haven't see too many players using Urshifu in online battles too often, well I have lately, as it is one of the most used Pokémon in online battles, but it is usually the Single Strike Urshifu that is used more than Rapid Strike Urshifu.
