Enter it in Pokémon Champions to play with this rental team.
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 Staraptor (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 Ceruledge's Grassy Seed for +1 Defense.
Raichu (Mega Y) and Rillaboom 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 193 Speed, followed by Staraptor (Mega) at 178.
Primarina is the spread attacker: Hyper Voice hits both foes at once. Liquid Voice turns Hyper Voice into a Water-type attack. At 96 Speed, it depends on Tailwind being active.
The Ice, Flying and Fairy weaknesses are unresolved: Garchomp takes 4× from Ice, 2 of the six are weak to Flying and 2 of the six are weak to Fairy.
The spreads are hand-tuned: Raichu (Mega Y), for example, runs 24 HP / 16 Def / 26 Spe.
