How the team plays

Tyranitar (Mega) is the team's physical attacker: Jolly with Dragon Dance, Rock Slide and Knock Off behind Protect, at 200 Attack. It needs one free turn to set up, and the rest of the team is built to provide it. It also runs Staraptor (Mega) as an alternative Mega: only one can Mega Evolve per battle.

Tyranitar (Mega) sets a sandstorm and Excadrill takes advantage of it.

Sinistcha works as a pivot next to Tyranitar (Mega): Rage Powder redirects; Rocky Helmet punishes contact.

Staraptor (Mega) sets Tailwind so the team moves first. Staraptor (Mega) is the fastest at 178 Speed, followed by Excadrill at 140.

Excadrill is the spread attacker: Rock Slide hits both foes at once.

The Fire, Ground and Fighting weaknesses are unresolved: 3 of the six are weak to Fire, 3 of the six are weak to Ground and Tyranitar (Mega) takes 4× from Fighting.

The spreads are hand-tuned: Tyranitar (Mega), for example, runs 18 HP / 16 Atk / 32 Spe.
