Daredevilzz26’s winning team was built around a clean sand mode with Tyranitar and Excadrill. Tyranitar carried Tyranitarite with Sand Stream, giving the team immediate weather control and enabling Excadrill’s Sand Rush. The Excadrill set was direct and efficient: Focus Sash, Adamant, and Earthquake, Iron Head, Rock Slide, Protect. That pairing gave the team fast spread pressure while still keeping Protect across both pieces for positioning.

The supporting cast made the sand core harder to trade into. Milotic used Sitrus Berry with Competitive, Scald, Icy Wind, Haze, and Protect, offering both speed control and an answer to setup. Sinistcha brought Colbur Berry, Hospitality, Matcha Gotcha, Shadow Ball, Protect, and Rage Powder, giving the team redirection and recovery support. Staraptor added a second Mega option with Staraptite and Intimidate, plus Close Combat, Brave Bird, Tailwind, and Protect. Gholdengo rounded out the team as a Life Orb Good as Gold attacker with Make It Rain, Shadow Ball, Nasty Plot, and Protect, giving Daredevilzz26 a strong special win condition alongside the physical sand pressure.

Across the top standings, weather was a major theme. Charizard with Charizardite Y appeared on Ahmed S., QuantumSlack, asteriio, and CrisVGC, often paired with Venusaur on the latter three teams. Rain structures also showed up repeatedly: Avalos used Politoed with Drizzle, while QuantumSlack and Corba9 used Pelipper with Drizzle, both alongside Archaludon with Leftovers and Stamina.

Several individual picks and items repeated across the top eight. Incineroar appeared on Ahmed S., Avalos, asteriio, and CrisVGC, with Intimidate and Parting Shot present on each of those sets. Basculegion appeared on Ahmed S., QuantumSlack, and MrAwesome, using either Life Orb or Choice Scarf with Adaptability. Garchomp was also common, appearing on Ahmed S., MrAwesome, asteriio, and CrisVGC. Sitrus Berry showed up on Milotic, Incineroar, Politoed, Pelipper, and other support pieces, while Focus Sash was widely used on fast or disruptive Pokemon such as Excadrill, Whimsicott, Vivillon, Venusaur, Maushold, and Annihilape.

Takeaway for ladder players: prepare for layered weather teams, especially Charizard sun and Archaludon rain, but do not overlook sand cores with strong redirection and secondary speed control.
