Team pitfalls when building around Skarmory Mega

• Do not stack too many teammates that are also weak to fire and electric.
• Rock coverage and entry-hazard pressure can make this Pokemon harder to use without support.
• Sweepers usually need defensive pivots or status support so they can enter safely.
• Defensive Pokemon still need offensive partners; avoid building a team that cannot pressure key types.
