Enter it in Pokémon Champions to play with this rental team.
Glimmora (Mega) is the team's special attacker: Modest with Sludge Bomb, Power Gem and Earth Power, at 209 Special Attack. It also runs Salamence (Mega) as an alternative Mega: only one can Mega Evolve per battle.
Rillaboom's Grassy Terrain is used for reducing Earthquake and Bulldoze damage.
Volcarona works as a pivot next to Glimmora (Mega): Rage Powder redirects; Flame Body punishes contact.
Rillaboom provides Fake Out and also hits with priority through Grassy Glide: that is how it gets the free turn without spending a setup move.
Salamence (Mega) sets Tailwind so the team moves first. Salamence (Mega) is the fastest at 189 Speed, followed by Volcarona at 157.
Salamence (Mega) is the spread attacker: Hyper Voice hits both foes at once.
Volcarona's Charti Berry covers the Rock hit it would otherwise lose to.
The Ice and Ground weaknesses are unresolved: Salamence (Mega) and Garchomp take 4× from Ice and Glimmora (Mega) takes 4× from Ground.
The spreads are hand-tuned: Glimmora (Mega), for example, runs 31 HP / 20 SpA / 1 SpD / 14 Spe.
