You! Me! Rivals! Yes?
I've been thinking a lot about teams to use centered around Urshifu's two styles in the Isle of Armour, and while there's still a lot of info and variables we don't know yet so this isn't final, here's a rough team idea I've put together for the Rapid Strike Style:
1) Rapid Strike Style Urshifu - Fighting/Water-type
2) Talonflame - because I loved using it in Kalos and Alola and I'm happy it's coming back
3) Mudsdale - to cover Urshifu and Talonflame's weaknesses to Electric
4) a Grass-type to cover Talonflame and Mudsdale's weaknesses to Water. Seeing as Venusaur and Blastoise are getting Gigantamax forms, if you can get Bulbasaur and Squirtle somewhere in-game without needing to transfer them (and I don't see why you couldn't), I'll use the Gigantamax Venusaur. Its Poison typing can also cover Urshifu's weakness to Fairy.
5) Frosmoth - I still haven't used it on a team yet, nor have I experienced the wholesome greatness of camping with Snom. Plus its Bug typing can help against Venusaur and Urshifu's weaknesses to Psychic.
6) Jolteon - because I realise this team has a glaring weakness to Flying, and I doubt Frosmoth is enough to handle the average Flying-type on its own.
