Robin_VGC’s winning team was built around layered speed control, terrain pressure, and strong spread damage. Eternal Flower Floette used Floettite with Fairy Aura and a Modest nature, giving the team a central Fairy-type attacker with Moonblast, Dazzling Gleam, Calm Mind, and Protect. Salamence added Salamencite, Intimidate, Tailwind, and spread pressure through Hyper Voice, while also threatening Draco Meteor.
The offensive core was backed by Gholdengo with Life Orb, Good as Gold, Make It Rain, Shadow Ball, Nasty Plot, and Protect. That set gave Robin_VGC a clear special snowball option alongside Eternal Flower Floette’s Calm Mind. Sneasler provided a fast physical mode with Grassy Seed, Unburden, Dire Claw, Close Combat, Rock Tomb, and Protect, directly pairing with Rillaboom’s Grassy Surge. Rillaboom also supplied Fake Out, Grassy Glide, Wood Hammer, and High Horsepower with Miracle Seed. Incineroar rounded the team out with Sitrus Berry, Intimidate, Flare Blitz, Parting Shot, Snarl, and Fake Out, giving the composition a second Intimidate user and another pivoting support piece.
Across the top cut, several patterns stood out. Sneasler appeared on three of the top four teams, with Robin_VGC using Grassy Seed and both kazo [AU] and Zeeb using Psychic Seed. Gholdengo appeared on the first- and third-place teams with the same Life Orb, Good as Gold, Timid, Make It Rain, Shadow Ball, Nasty Plot, Protect structure. Salamence was present on both Robin_VGC and OrangeSteve’s teams, each using Salamencite, Intimidate, Hyper Voice, Draco Meteor, and Protect.
Terrain also mattered heavily. Robin_VGC and OrangeSteve both used Rillaboom with Miracle Seed and Grassy Surge, while kazo [AU] used Indeedee with Choice Scarf and Psychic Surge and Zeeb used Indeedee ♀ with Rocky Helmet and Psychic Surge. Fake Out support was common as well, appearing on Rillaboom, Incineroar, Raichu, and other high-placing structures. Incineroar remained a key stabilizer, appearing on Robin_VGC and Zeeb in the top four, with more copies just outside the top cut on Vinnamon [SV] and gg Gab [FR].
Takeaway for ladder players: Robin_VGC’s win shows how strong Regulation Set M-C teams can stack terrain, Fake Out, Intimidate, and multiple setup threats without relying on a single mode.
