businesspiggy’s winning team leaned on layered speed and immediate damage. Talonflame was the clearest pace-setter, using Sharp Beak, Gale Wings, Brave Bird, Flare Blitz, Tailwind, and Protect to threaten fast pressure while enabling the rest of the team. Gengar added another form of control with Gengarite, Cursed Body, Shadow Ball, Sludge Bomb, Icy Wind, and Protect, giving the team a second way to manage opposing speed without committing only to Tailwind.
The physical core was direct and punishing. Eelektross carried Eelektrossite with Levitate, Adamant, Wild Charge, Close Combat, Substitute, and Protect, giving businesspiggy a bulky attacker that could use Substitute to punish passive turns. Krookodile brought Life Orb, Intimidate, Jolly, High Horsepower, Knock Off, Earthquake, and Protect, combining disruption with strong Ground and Dark damage. Basculegion ♀ rounded out the offense with Mystic Water, Adaptability, Adamant, Wave Crash, Last Respects, Aqua Jet, and Protect, adding priority and a clear late-game damage threat.
Roserade was the utility piece that made the team harder to stabilize against. Focus Sash, Poison Point, Modest, Sludge Bomb, Energy Ball, Sleep Powder, and Protect gave businesspiggy status pressure and coverage into Water- and Fairy-adjacent targets while still preserving tempo through Protect. Overall, the composition did not rely on a single mode: it could play through Talonflame Tailwind, Gengar Icy Wind, Intimidate from Krookodile, Sleep Powder from Roserade, or raw attacking pressure from Eelektross and Basculegion ♀.
Across the top teams, Gengar was the most visible repeated centerpiece. businesspiggy, AndruApple, and PenguGuy all used Gengarite Gengar, with AndruApple opting for a Timid Substitute, Perish Song, Protect set and PenguGuy using Shadow Tag with Sludge Bomb, Shadow Ball, Substitute, and Protect. Wash Rotom also appeared on both sheepie’s and PenguGuy’s teams with Choice Scarf, Levitate, Hydro Pump, Volt Switch, Electroweb, and Thunderbolt.
Intimidate was another recurring tool, appearing on businesspiggy’s Krookodile, AndruApple’s Scrafty, and PenguGuy’s Arcanine. Choice Scarf showed up repeatedly as well, including sheepie’s Wash Rotom, PenguGuy’s Wash Rotom, and AndruApple’s Meowscarada. Top teams also commonly paired strong Mega options with support or redirection pieces, such as AndruApple’s Clefable with Follow Me and PenguGuy’s Tinkaton with Fake Out.
Takeaway for ladder players: build with multiple speed-control plans, because the winning team showed that Tailwind plus Icy Wind can support several different endgames.
