How the team plays

Charizard (Mega Y) is the team's special attacker: Timid with Ancient Power, Heat Wave and Weather Ball behind Protect, at 179 Special Attack. It also runs Dragonite (Mega) as an alternative Mega: only one can Mega Evolve per battle.

Charizard (Mega Y) sets sun and Incineroar, Venusaur and Dragonite (Mega) take advantage of it.

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

Incineroar provides Fake Out: that is how it gets the free turn without spending a setup move.

Dragonite (Mega) sets Tailwind so the team moves first. Charizard (Mega Y) is the fastest at 132 Speed, followed by Garchomp at 122.

Sylveon is the spread attacker: Hyper Voice hits both foes at once. Pixilate turns Hyper Voice into a Fairy-type attack. At 80 Speed, it depends on Tailwind being active.

The Ice, Rock and Dragon weaknesses are unresolved: Garchomp and Dragonite (Mega) take 4× from Ice, Charizard (Mega Y) takes 4× from Rock and 2 of the six are weak to Dragon.

The spreads are the generic 32/32 ones and have not been tuned to specific benchmarks.

We build each spread against the most used Pokémon in the meta and around its teammates: the Speed that pays off most (counting the team's Tailwind or Trick Room) and just enough bulk to survive one or two hits from the threats no other member already handles, with the rest into attack. It's an estimate on the Pokémon Champions scale (0–32 per stat, 66 in total), because players don't publish their real spreads.
