Mega Aerodactyl Riopaser
2026-06-15
A dual-Speed team with Mega Aerodactyl and Mega Charizard Y as alternative modes. It combines Tailwind, Trick Room, and sun with a high offensive ceiling, but demands a clear mode choice from Team Preview.
Core Pokémon
Aerodactyl / Kingambit / Farigiraf / Charizard
- — Two Mega modes: Aerodactyl for Speed and offense, Charizard Y for sun and special pressure.
- — Flexible Speed control through Tailwind and Trick Room.
- — Kingambit and Garchomp are the strongest static pieces and sustain physical damage.
Japan Meta Team
2026-06-07
Aggressive sun offense with Mega Charizard Y, Chlorophyll Venusaur, Sneasler, Choice Scarf Basculegion, Garchomp, and Incineroar. It offers broad role coverage, mixed offensive pressure, and strong pivoting, but lacks formal Speed control and depends heavily on Charizard and Incineroar.
Core Pokémon
Charizard / Sneasler / Basculegion-Male / Garchomp
- — Clear sun-offense identity through Charizardite Y, Weather Ball, and Chlorophyll Venusaur.
- — Excellent role coverage: Intimidate, Fake Out, pivoting, priority, anti-setup, anti-Trick Room, status, and weather.
- — Incineroar combines Fake Out, Intimidate, Taunt, and Parting Shot.
Mega Glimmora
2026-06-04
Tailwind offense with a secondary sun mode. Charizard, Whimsicott, Weavile, Garchomp, male Basculegion, and Glimmora provide broad offensive coverage, strong opening tempo, and several breakers, but rely heavily on Whimsicott for Speed control.
Core Pokémon
Charizard / Whimsicott / Weavile / Garchomp
- — Excellent offensive coverage, with Electric as the only clear gap.
- — Reliable Prankster Tailwind from Whimsicott.
- — Strong turn-one tempo through Weavile's Fake Out.
Sun Balance Core
2026-06-04
Sun balance with Mega Charizard Y, Venusaur, Incineroar, Kingambit, Farigiraf, and Whimsicott. The team controls tempo through sun, Tailwind, Trick Room, Fake Out, Encore, and Armor Tail, but must choose its Speed mode carefully.
Core Pokémon
Venusaur / Charizard / Incineroar / Kingambit
- — Dual Speed control through Farigiraf's Trick Room and Whimsicott's Tailwind.
- — Clear sun core with Charizardite Y and Chlorophyll Venusaur.
- — Strong turn-one control through Fake Out, Prankster, Encore, and Armor Tail.
Rain Pelipper
2026-06-04
Rain and Tailwind offense centered on Pelipper, Archaludon, and Basculegion. Drizzle, Swift Swim, Electro Shot, Fake Out, and multiple priority moves form a clear offensive plan, although the defense relies heavily on Pelipper and careful positioning.
Core Pokémon
Archaludon / Pelipper / Basculegion-Male / Dragonite
- — Clear rain identity through Pelipper, Basculegion, and Archaludon.
- — Solid Speed control through Tailwind, Swift Swim, priority, and Fake Out.

Mega Kangaskhan
2026-06-04
Tailwind offense built around Mega Kangaskhan, supported by Whimsicott, Garchomp, Kingambit, Charizard, and male Basculegion. The team has a high static score, broad offensive coverage, reliable Speed control, and a stable defensive profile.
Core Pokémon
Whimsicott / Kangaskhan / Garchomp / Kingambit
- — Very high overall static score: 80.3 / A.
- — Strong type defense with no high-risk shared weakness.
- — Solid Speed control through Whimsicott's Tailwind and Garchomp's Rock Tomb.
Mega Steelix Wolfey
2026-06-01
Sand balance with a partial Trick Room mode: Mega Steelix is the main win condition, Tyranitar controls sand, and Sinistcha sustains the slow mode. Protect improves Sinistcha's safety, although the team must manage its Speed plan carefully.
Core Pokémon
Steelix / Rotom-Wash / Sinistcha / Sneasler
- — Mega Steelix is focused clearly as a win condition through Body Press, base 200 Defense, Wide Guard, and Steelixite.
- — Protect greatly improves Sinistcha's stability as a Trick Room setter.
- — Tyranitar remains an excellent sand setter, setup sweeper, and possible alternative Mega.
