Summary of thread: Ever faced a powerful team that sent you looking for a brick wall to bang your head against or spent the day just wondering how you lost so hard. These teams can define metas yet everyone knows those moments don't last forever and sooner or later the teams flaws will be exposed for the world to see and a group of Pokemon will emerge to break it. The purpose of this thread is to find said weaknesses and create cores that can break the teams of infamy because deep down Everyone knows no team is truly invincible.
This project aims to look and see how certain mons that work together to exploit said weakness, in other words a core that can break/destroy a team. This can help fine tune teams in order to prevent them from getting destroyed by a simple core. Anyway without further ado, here are the rules.
Rules:
1. Each week I will pick a team and during the submission period, everyone can talk about what cores they think breaks a team and submit a core that they think is the most threatening to that team. In other words, what core they think destroys the selected team and why?
2. Cores can have 2 or 3 mons, and sets as well as at least 2 lines of explanation will be required as to how that core destroys the team for that week. You can also talk about the weaknesses of the team being broken if you wish. In addition, all Pokemon nominated must be on the viability list or have "extremely" well known niches. Anybody who posts crap like Special Machoke will have their posts deleted.
3. After the submission period has passed, everyone will vote on the core that they believe is the most threatening to the team. Each person will be allowed 1 vote. You can also use the voting period to submit ideas on a team you would like to see broken next. You cannot vote for yourself.
4. The winner of each round will be placed in the Hall of Fame!!
5. Good luck, have fun, and most importantly no one liners. n_n

Team of the Week - Round 12!
Muk + Trapper by Anty
Muk + Trapper by Anty
The team is incredibly standard for supporting a Curse Muk sweep. Probopass can trap most Steel-types that completely wall Muk, which serves as the team's main wincon since it can beat just about anything else after a few curses. Leafeon provides some wallbreaking while also checking Golem and other Ground-types with Synthesis to stay healthy for longer games, and Scarf Mime revenge kills threats like Monferno and NP Chatot. The team is supported by a Clefairy/Vullaby backbone, which can be incredibly difficult to break through with Muk support.
