I'm a monster, and I'm using a grasshole team.

Lead with Grotile, it's frail and hits hard with grass and flying attacks.

Tropius x4 resists grass and ground, ground's more common to check the part steels that plague this format.

Mawile counters Ferrothorn with Fire Fang, and I forgoed the Power-Up-Punch set for Iron Head and Play Rough. People tend to eat the first charge attack from Mawile since PUP seems to be the most common.

The only mon I struggle with is Tentacruel and G-Weezing. Mawile resists poison, but it's so frail and Tentacruel resists everything it has. Weezing has a fast fairy attack so a healthy Mawile can beat it with shields, but Overheat and Sludge Bomb gibs my entire team.

If it's a bad opening match up I sacrifice Grotile to safely let in Mawile to either finish off the open or lock in a bad match up for Tropius to farm energy.
