How the team plays

Raichu (Mega Y) is the team's special attacker: Timid with Zap Cannon and Focus Blast behind Protect, at 180 Special Attack. It also runs Floette-Eternal (Mega) as an alternative Mega: only one can Mega Evolve per battle.

Rillaboom's Grassy Terrain is used for reducing Earthquake and Bulldoze damage and activating Volcarona's Grassy Seed for +1 Defense.

Incineroar works as a pivot next to Raichu (Mega Y): Intimidate lowers both foes' Attack; Parting Shot lets it switch out without losing the turn.

Raichu (Mega Y), Rillaboom and Incineroar provide Fake Out and Rillaboom hits with priority through Grassy Glide: that is how it gets the free turn without spending a setup move.

Raichu (Mega Y) is the fastest at 192 Speed, followed by Floette-Eternal (Mega) at 144. It runs no speed control: it relies on hitting hard before the opponent moves.

Floette-Eternal (Mega) is the spread attacker: Dazzling Gleam hits both foes at once.

The Rock, Poison and Ground weaknesses are unresolved: Volcarona takes 4× from Rock, 2 of the six are weak to Poison and 2 of the six are weak to Ground.

The spreads are hand-tuned: Raichu (Mega Y), for example, runs 32 HP / 8 Def / 1 SpD / 25 Spe.
