CptAuroOG’s winning team was built around multiple flexible speed and positioning tools. Salamence provided Intimidate and Tailwind while still threatening damage with Life Orb, Draco Meteor, and Heat Wave. Rillaboom brought Grassy Surge, Fake Out, Grassy Glide, and a Sitrus Berry set that fit naturally with Gholdengo’s Grassy Seed. That pairing gave the team a strong mid-game mode: Rillaboom applied immediate pressure and terrain support, while Gholdengo could use Nasty Plot behind Good as Gold and threaten spread damage with Make It Rain.
The more distinctive part of the composition was its double Floettite and Raichunite Y pressure package. Eternal Flower Floette used Floettite with Flower Veil, Calm Mind, Dazzling Gleam, Draining Kiss, and Protect, giving CptAuroOG a Fairy-type win condition that could scale if given turns. Raichu added Lightning Rod, Fake Out, and high-risk special coverage in Zap Cannon and Focus Blast. Hisuian Arcanine rounded out the team with Focus Sash, Rock Head, Flare Blitz, Head Smash, Extreme Speed, and Protect, offering immediate physical pressure and priority.
Across the top teams, Rillaboom was the clearest repeat pick, appearing on the teams of CptAuroOG, Amethyst_sys, Maggrosbeat, ThePhil, Manraj Sidhu, and FudiFudi. Fake Out plus Grassy Glide remained a major part of how these teams controlled turns. Sneasler also showed up repeatedly near the top, including MaxTrickRoom’s Psychic Seed set, Amethyst_sys’s Grassy Seed set, ThePhil’s Grassy Seed set, and Manraj Sidhu’s Grassy Seed set.
Eternal Flower Floette was another notable presence, appearing on CptAuroOG, Maggrosbeat, and Zoph, each with Floettite. Gholdengo appeared on both CptAuroOG and Maggrosbeat with Make It Rain, Shadow Ball, Nasty Plot, and Protect. Incineroar remained common among the 5-2 and 4-3 teams, while Salamence appeared on CptAuroOG, Maggrosbeat, Manraj Sidhu, and FudiFudi, most often carrying Tailwind.
The item trends were also clear: Focus Sash, Life Orb, Sitrus Berry, Grassy Seed, and several Mega-style stones such as Floettite, Salamencite, Charizardite Y, and Raichunite Y were all represented in the upper standings.
Takeaway for ladder players: prioritize teams that can combine Fake Out, speed control, and a clear boosting or damage-scaling endgame.
