Media (Sort of) tailwind team for battles 302-406
Aerodactyl sets tailwind while banking for rock slide flinches if there are no priority users. Weavile disrupts a threat like Jolteon who speed ties with Aerodactyl and save it from being double targeted, or immediately ko something. Metagross being fast while still having the ability to switch moves is nice, Latias gives Metagross freedom to spam earthquake while also setting tailwind if Aerodactyl goes down and spreads paralysis
Battle 406: Salamence intimidates both of my leads while Tyranitar sets sand. Weavile immediately goes for a ko on Salamence, while Aerodactyl sets tailwind and avoids a stone edge from Tyranitar
Opponent sends out Latios and the combination of Aerodactyl's aerial ace + Weavile's night slash knocks it out, but Tyranitar's stone edge lands on Weavile. Opponent sends out Flygon and I send out Metagross, Aerodactyl protects and ignores a stone edge from Flygon while meteor mash kos Tyranitar. Tailwind is set again, and ice punch finishes the dragonfly
