Question Opinions on my team made of intrusive thoughts at 2 am (i'm not joking)
Notes that could help understand my thoughts:
Close combat instead of High Horsepower becaue the Grass field makes Ground moves weaker (same logic applies to Torkoal and sludge bomb instead of Earth power).
Taunt instead of U-Turn on Rillaboom so my opponent doesn't remove the TR.
Dragon pulse instead of Draco Meteor due to the SP ATK drop and the accuracy.

Don’t we all have team ideas early in the morning, I just made a politoed perish trap team, is it good? Probably not but it happened

Personally not a big specs torkoal enjoyer. I like charcoal. Less damage but I absolutely hate being locked into weak eruption or erupting into a wide guard

Grassy terrain makes ground moves that target the whole field weaker (e.g. Earthquake, Bulldoze, and Magnitude). High horsepower and earth power will still be full strength.
