This is a Rate my Team thread!
Its for VGC double battles, currently on battle spot my rating is hovering around the 1600's but i cant seem to get any higher and i dont know if thats because im fairly new to using a trick room team (been using it for less than a week)

Here's my team:

any help is greatly appreciated

Very cool team and in the losses that you've had what pokemon have been giving your team trouble? If it's a problem of trick room turns running out you can add a priority user to take advantage of speed once trick room expires

I think i've just been playing poorly with it, there's been a fair few games where i should've made better plays and i would've came away with a win. I do have trouble with opposing amoonguss' as me setting up trick room helps them out too

amoonguss is a very good answer to TR
use safety goggles on heatran to help vs amoonguss

i dont have the safety goggles item, and I was running a sub/leftovers set on heatran but i felt he wasnt getting the KO's he should've been, so i gave him the life orb and earth power to counter other heatrans and i feel that set has been working a lot better for me
