How the team plays

Charizard (Mega Y) is the team's special attacker: Timid with Heat Wave, Weather Ball and Solar Beam behind Protect, at 179 Special Attack.

Charizard (Mega Y) sets sun when it Mega Evolves and Incineroar and Venusaur 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.

Charizard (Mega Y) is the fastest at 132 Speed, followed by Garchomp at 122. It runs no speed control: it relies on hitting hard before the opponent moves.

Garchomp is the spread attacker: Earthquake and Rock Slide hit both foes at once.

Toxapex carries Wide Guard, the practical answer to Rock: blocking Rock Slide is more reliable than surviving it.

Toxapex carries Wide Guard, the practical answer to Ice: blocking Blizzard is more reliable than surviving it.

Toxapex carries Wide Guard, the practical answer to Ground: blocking Earthquake is more reliable than surviving it.

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.
