tomasbmp’s winning team is built around layered positioning tools and multiple setup threats. Sneasler brings Focus Sash, Fake Out, and Rock Tomb support while still threatening damage with Close Combat and Poison Jab. Incineroar adds the second Fake Out, Intimidate, Helping Hand, and Parting Shot, giving the team reliable ways to control turns and create openings.
The payoff pieces are spread rather than concentrated in one slot. Eternal Flower Floette carries Floettite with Calm Mind, Draining Kiss, Dazzling Gleam, and Protect, giving tomasbmp a durable setup option. Kingambit uses Life Orb with Kowtow Cleave, Sucker Punch, Swords Dance, and Protect, making it a clear late-game pressure point once opposing resources are softened. Delphox adds another mega option with Delphoxite and Nasty Plot alongside Heat Wave and Psyshock.
Sinistcha ties the composition together. Hospitality gives passive recovery support, Rage Powder helps protect the team’s setup turns, and Trick Room gives tomasbmp a way to change the speed dynamic when needed. Between Fake Out, Rage Powder, Parting Shot, Rock Tomb, and Trick Room, the team has several practical ways to decide which Pokemon gets to act safely.
Across the top standings, Eternal Flower Floette was one of the clearest trends, appearing on tomasbmp, AndreaLai94, Luan G, and Ben_ny, always with Floettite. Charizard was also prominent, appearing on Pro4tomico, AndreaLai94, IlRepe, and Mingochan, each with Charizardite Y. Kingambit showed up on tomasbmp, AndreaLai94, IlRepe, and Ben_ny, with Defiant on all four listed teams.
Sinistcha and Incineroar were also common support choices. Sinistcha appeared on tomasbmp, Luan G, Darkanh23, and Ben_ny, while Incineroar appeared on tomasbmp, Luan G, Mingochan, and Ben_ny. Focus Sash was spread across several roles, including Sneasler, Venusaur, Whimsicott, and Excadrill, while Life Orb appeared on Kingambit, Garchomp, Gholdengo, and Kommo-o.
Takeaway for ladder players: build with enough positioning tools to support your setup attackers, because the top teams leaned heavily on Fake Out, redirection, pivots, and flexible speed control.
