˗ˋˏ❤︎ˎˊ˗ Pomelo Late Night Practice results recap

˗ˋˏ❤︎ˎˊ˗ Pomelo Late Night Practice was a 27-player online event on Limitless, played in Pokemon Champions Regulation Set M-C on 2026-11-10. The final round sequence had lssjace35 over pomelo, kotori over lssjace35, and kotori over jocan, leaving Kotori [JP] on top at 6-2-0.

Place Player Record Team
1 Kotori [JP] 6-2-0 Aerodactyl / Tsareena / Basculegion ♀ / Raichu / Kingambit / Sneasler
2 LSSJace35 [US] 5-3-0 Delphox / Rillaboom / Sneasler / Primarina / Hisuian Zoroark / Dragapult
3 blueberryarmadillo600 . [US] 6-1-0 Eternal Flower Floette / Delphox / Sinistcha / Sneasler / Kingambit / Incineroar
4 Pomelo [CN] 4-3-0 Swampert / Armarouge / Indeedee ♀ / Salamence / Tyranitar / Gholdengo

Kotori’s winning team is built around layered pressure rather than a single obvious mode. Aerodactyl with Aerodactylite gives the team fast Tailwind and immediate spread pressure through Rock Slide, while Dual Wingbeat and Ice Fang round out its coverage. That speed control supports a group of attackers that can all threaten meaningful damage: Basculegion ♀ with Adaptability and Kasib Berry, Kingambit with Black Glasses and Swords Dance, and Sneasler with Focus Sash.

The support structure is also notable. Tsareena brings Wide Lens, Queenly Majesty, Power Whip, Low Kick, Helping Hand, and Protect, giving Kotori a support slot that can still attack. Raichu with Raichunite X, Lightning Rod, Fake Out, Volt Switch, Volt Tackle, and Protect adds another layer of positioning and disruption. Alongside Sneasler’s Fake Out, Kotori had multiple ways to create safe turns for Tailwind, Swords Dance, or direct attacks. The team’s game plan looks straightforward: establish tempo early, keep up offensive pressure, and use Protect across most of the roster to manage turns cleanly.

Across the top teams, Sneasler was the most visible repeat pick, appearing on the first-, second-, and third-place teams, plus BlazeKick’s eighth-place team. Its sets varied: Kotori and blueberryarmadillo600 . used Focus Sash with Poison Touch, while LSSJace35 used White Herb with Unburden. Fake Out was also common near the top, appearing on Kotori’s Raichu and Sneasler, LSSJace35’s Rillaboom and Sneasler, blueberryarmadillo600 .’s Sneasler and Incineroar, and abp123’s Rillaboom.

Delphox also stood out, appearing on both LSSJace35’s runner-up team and blueberryarmadillo600 .’s third-place team with Delphoxite, Blaze, Timid, Heat Wave, and Nasty Plot. Kingambit appeared on both Kotori’s winning team and blueberryarmadillo600 .’s team, each with Defiant, Adamant, Sucker Punch, Kowtow Cleave, Swords Dance, and Protect, though with different damage items. Sitrus Berry and Focus Sash were frequent item choices across the top cut, showing a mix of bulk and consistency around aggressive teams.

Takeaway for ladder players: prepare for fast Sneasler-centered pressure, but do not ignore flexible support cores with Fake Out, Tailwind, and Helping Hand.
