Team pitfalls when building around Volcarona

• Do not stack too many teammates that are also weak to water, flying, and rock.
• 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.
