Dustin Hahn’s winning team was built around fast pressure, layered damage, and multiple late-game cleaners. Charizard with Charizardite Y, Blaze, and Modest nature supplied immediate spread offense through Heat Wave, while Weather Ball and Solar Beam gave it direct coverage options next to Protect. Salamence added a second Mega slot with Salamencite, Intimidate, Modest Hyper Voice, Draco Meteor, Flamethrower, and Protect, giving the team another special attacker that could pressure both single-target and spread positions.
The support and tempo pieces made the offense easier to position. Whimsicott carried Focus Sash, Prankster, Moonblast, Tailwind, Encore, and Protect, giving Hahn speed control and disruption without needing to commit to bulk. Sneasler used White Herb with Unburden and an Adamant nature, threatening Close Combat, Gunk Shot, and Rock Slide while still preserving Protect. Kingambit’s Chople Berry and Defiant set gave the team a strong answer into opposing stat control, with Kowtow Cleave, Iron Head, Sucker Punch, and Low Kick covering both sustained damage and priority. Basculegion rounded out the six with Life Orb, Adaptability, Jolly Wave Crash, Last Respects, Aqua Jet, and Protect, offering another physical damage source that could punish weakened boards.
Across the top standings, Charizard was one of the clearest repeated picks. Charizard with Charizardite Y appeared on the first-place team and again on Theerapong Klomkul’s third-place team, while the wider top eight also included Charizard on Kanon Daiba, Jason Patrick Castaneda, and Jonas Lygre’s teams. Heat Wave, Weather Ball, Solar Beam, and Protect were common parts of those Charizard sets, with Ancient Power appearing on the Timid Charizard builds from Theerapong Klomkul and Jason Patrick Castaneda.
Sneasler and Kingambit also showed up repeatedly. Dustin Hahn, Kanon Daiba, and Jonas Lygre all paired Sneasler with Kingambit, and Jem Reyes also used Sneasler with Psychic Seed and Unburden. Chople Berry Kingambit with Defiant was especially consistent across the listed teams, appearing on Dustin Hahn, Kanon Daiba, Jason Patrick Castaneda, and Jonas Lygre. Focus Sash Whimsicott with Prankster, Tailwind, Encore, Moonblast, and Protect was another repeated package across the top eight.
The other notable direction was slower positioning. Farigiraf appeared on both Theerapong Klomkul and John Takezawa’s top-four teams, both carrying Trick Room and Protect. Sylveon also appeared on both of those teams with Fairy Feather, Pixilate, Hyper Voice, and Moonblast, giving those builds a clear spread-damage option under controlled speed conditions.
Takeaway for ladder players: Charizardite Y offense looked strongest when paired with reliable speed control, priority, and at least one physical closer.
