Probably my last one for awhile, Tate and Liza suck ass but fixing them was too much effort. I just wanted to lean way more heavily into the doubles theme. I went with pokemon that were more or less parallels to each other for that.
First of Lunatone and Solrock, this is weird because Solrock is much more physical attack leaning, and this is a gen before special/physical moves. Solrock can easily use rock moves, and Lunatone can easily use psychic moves. I did give Solrock one special move in Solar Beam, but it's not so bad when buffed by Sunny Day, which also sets up the next mon.
Slowbro and Slowking are a great match, one buffs a ton, and the other copies those buffs with Psych Up. Slowking can also benefit form the Sunny Day before it expires while waiting for Slowbro to buff up by using Flamethrower. The nice benefit there is that fire covers a weakness in bug.
Lastly, Medicham threatens a ton of damage quickly and demands that you focus on it, while Xatu sets up heavy attacks that will fall if you ignore it to focus down Medicham.
