If you want to get into Masterball quickly with a very offensive and unique, I do recommend using this one I built around Salamence and Cinderace. Salamence is on the decline but it still features a very strong toolkit with Tailwind & Intimidate support. Flying coverage is also quite strong now, so I decided to run a Salemence that works against the Garchomp Z spam. The spread lets it survive Modest Dragon Pulse and some other key special hits such as Hyper Voice Sylveon, Dazzling Gleam Floette and hits from ZardVenu while still being able to OHKO bulkless Sneasler and outspeeding 90 Base Speed Pokémon such as Arcanine-Hisui and Annihilape. Cinderace is an amazing partner that can deal with the Steel & Fairy Types which Salamence struggles with. Keep in mind that you won't change your typing to Dark if your Sucker Punch fails. Gunk Shot (with Libero) picks up Sylveon & Floette. I was not sure which item to run because I was set on Life Orb Primarina which is why I went for White Herb ultimately. That makes it a great Pokémon into Setup Balance teams. The speed allows you to outrun the 110 Base Speed Pokémon and the bulk is generally nice for a lot of things (for example Aqua Jet LO Basculegion or High Horsepower Rillaboom). As stated before, I wanted to run a Life Orb Primarina because it also synergizes extremely well with Salamence. Main threats are Rillaboom and Sneasler which Salamence removes and Tailwind support is amazing for such a strong Pokémon. 108 speed is used to outrun Choice Scarf Basculegion in Tailwind and the bulk lets it survives -1 Dire Claw + Life Orb recoil which is super important against Focus Sash Sneasler variants. The attacks are pretty straightforward for a Life Orb set and I don't regret choosing those. Kleavor is supposed to keep Charizard in check. I figured Focus Sash is the best option here to deal with fast / priority Tailwind + Heat Wave. I put Feint on it to use Tailwind most effectively and the idea of knocking out Whimsicott with Stone Axe + Feint was really intriguing. It also helps into other Focus Sash Pokémon such as Sneasler or Venusaur. Adamant Nature is important to get the aforementioned knockouts as well as KOing Farigiraf in one hit. Tsareena makes tons of sense on an offensively paced team like this one. You don't want to be trapped in the vortex against Rillaboom + Incineroar and its typing is a great addition to the team. Threatening Basculegion with Power Whip is nice. It also gives you a solid pick into Swampert. Triple Axel knocks out Venusaur and thanks to Wide Lens, the miss chance is just 1% (per hit). That makes it a great Pokémon into SunRain teams. High Jump Kick is the fighting move to chunk Archaludon and Kingambit for more. Choice Scarf Gholdengo is also a great Pokémon into ZardVenu. Immune to Sleep Powder and able to knockout Charizard with Power Gem. Focus Blast here is mainly for Archaludon and I did not see the reason to run Trick or Thunderbolt. The little bulk allows Gholdengo to eat a Sucker Punch from Kingambit or a Heat Wave from Delphox which is pretty nice.
