How the team plays

Staraptor (Mega) is the team's physical attacker: Jolly with Brave Bird and Close Combat behind Protect, at 160 Attack. It also runs Raichu (Mega Y) as an alternative Mega: only one can Mega Evolve per battle.

Rillaboom's Grassy Terrain is used for reducing Earthquake and Bulldoze damage.

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

Staraptor (Mega) sets Tailwind so the team moves first. Raichu (Mega Y) is the fastest at 165 Speed, followed by Staraptor (Mega) at 143.

Gholdengo is the Life Orb spread attacker: Make It Rain hits both foes at once. At 104 Speed, it depends on Tailwind being active.

The Ground, Fire and Water weaknesses are unresolved: Arcanine-Hisui takes 4× from Ground, 2 of the six are weak to Fire and Arcanine-Hisui takes 4× from Water.

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.
