- An All-out attacker set should be added, because every offensive Pokemon should have one.
- Thunderbolt and HP Rock/Ice should be slashed onto the offensive sets, or Gyarados/Pajay/Blubelrog etc. will wall the heck out of unboosted Winotinger and, in the case of Pajay, can Air Slash the Chimerical Pokemon to tiny bits.
- Counters: Try adding Flying-types and Brainoar. Flying-types are already mentioned, and Brainoars can survive a lot of attacks from Winotinger, and can Psychic the Chimerical.
- Trick Room? Winotingers are notably slow, so Trick Room can help with faster threats, although Miasmedics can Poison Jab Wino, but you can always switch...
Alas, that is but my humble opinions. Follow it if you think it's right, but OK if not.

[1] Winotinger already has all-out attacker sets in this showcase. Just because it has Nasty Plot or Trick for another moveslot doesnt mean its not an all out attacker.

[2] HP ground is far superior than HP Rock/Ice. Though Thunderbolt and HP Ice does fill a certain niche. Might be worth point that out in the showcase I guess, but its not worth it imo. Of which, honestly only Gyarados is of a serious threat.... Pajay can't OHKO it without some sort of boost, and Blubelrog isn't exactly the best pokemon out there.

[3] Good idea to recommend a Psychic partner, but Brainoar isn't too great for synergy or a partner to Winotinger as if to Metalynx and Syrentide. Both dies to strong Physical attackers for an instance, and anything that hits hard and outspeeds both of them (which is plenty cause both also has medicore speed) is present. I'd rather recommend Pokemon like Laissure and Gliscor in this instance for an example. 

[4] .....What? Trick Room? On a Pokemon with 85 base speed? No. Just.... no.
The general rule of Usable TR-ers are Pokemon with a MINIMUM base speed of 80 (which is already considered fast in most cases of Trick Room teams) and/or has access to Priority moves and/or is able to flexibly switch into danger and deal out chunks or damage and/or tanks well while dealing back damage and/or is super fast to work well with the team without TR and/or has access to strong priority moves; and they must fit at least a few of this niches to work well and synergies. Winotinger only fits one of this rule, which is that is able to decently freely switch into danger and deal out chunks of damage.


As we've discusses earlier meanwhile @Pocket, this showcase is simplistic but catches the charm of the Pokemon Showcased very well. Sure, more details can still be added, but once again im still a little too busy to properly critique and analyze it XD really good job on your showcase. I hope I can see more from you in the future.
Eh. I'm not the best competitive player out there, so... yeah. Still, what Reeves said is pretty valid.
