Thoughts on my Alpha Sapphire Trick Team?
I'm honestly not sure if this is the right place to put this. So, for context, I've been playing Alpha Sapphire lately, and I recently got to the Battle Resort. I tried the Battle Maison, and didn't make it too far with my playthrough team. So I'm working on a new battle team, for Double Battles. I picked a Trick Room-based strategy simply because I don't do things like that very often. Here's my team, I'm open to any suggestions! I'm not listing Natures because I feel there's zero chance I can get all the Natures I'd want
Cofagrigus (Sitrus Berry)

EVs: 252 Defense, 4 Sp. Atk, 252 Sp. Def
Darmanitan (Life Orb)
Ability: Sheer Force
- Bulk Up
- Zen Headbutt
- Fire Punch
- Hammer Arm
EVs: 252 HP, 252 Attack, 4 Sp. Def
Spiritomb (Razor Claw)
Ability: Pressure

EVs: 4 Defense, 252 Sp. Atk, 252 Sp. Def
Tangrowth (Leftovers)
Ability: Regenerator

- Poison Jab
- Rock Slide
- Protect
EVs: 252 Attack, 252 Defense, 4 Sp. Def
Slowbro (Slowbronite)
Ability: Own Tempo

- Earthquake
- Aqua Tail
EVs: 252 Attack, 252 Defense, 4 Sp. Def
Keep in mind that Alpha Sapphire is the only 3DS Pokémon game I own, and that, combined with the 3DS online servers being shut down, means I can't get Pokémon that aren't available in Alpha Sapphire, which also limits what Egg Moves I can get.
