joeygobran’s winning team was built around flexible pressure rather than a single linear mode. Blaziken with Blazikenite, Speed Boost, Detect, Flare Blitz, Close Combat, and Rock Slide gave the team an immediate physical attacker that could protect itself while gaining speed. Garchomp used Garchompite Z with a Modest special set of Protect, Earth Power, Flamethrower, and Dragon Pulse, giving the team coverage that did not overlap cleanly with Blaziken’s physical damage.
The support structure was just as important. Rillaboom brought Grassy Surge, Fake Out, Grassy Glide, Wood Hammer, and U-turn with Miracle Seed, giving the team terrain control and priority. Farigiraf’s Armor Tail, Helping Hand, and Trick Room gave joeygobran protection from priority-based disruption while also adding a slower mode when needed. Primarina added Life Orb-boosted Liquid Voice Hyper Voice alongside Moonblast and Dazzling Gleam, while Kingambit with Focus Sash, Defiant, Sucker Punch, Kowtow Cleave, and Iron Head gave the team a resilient endgame attacker.
Across the top cut, Rillaboom was the clearest trend. It appeared on six of the top eight teams, with Miracle Seed used by joeygobran, MilkVGC, MarioCsGamer, 2edilso, and ProfSkarmoryYT. Fake Out plus Grassy Glide remained a common combination, and several Rillaboom sets also carried Wood Hammer and U-turn or High Horsepower.
Garchomp with Garchompite Z was another major presence, appearing on joeygobran, MarioCsGamer, 2edilso, and ProfSkarmoryYT. These were Modest Rough Skin sets using Dragon Pulse and Earth Power, with coverage slots including Flamethrower, Rock Slide, or Power Gem. Incineroar also remained relevant, appearing on MarioCsGamer, Index_7, 2edilso, and ProfSkarmoryYT, usually with Intimidate, Fake Out, Flare Blitz, and Parting Shot.
Life Orb Gholdengo with Good as Gold, Make It Rain, Shadow Ball, Nasty Plot, and Protect appeared on Index_7 and 2edilso, while ProfSkarmoryYT used the same move set and ability with a Modest nature. Raichu with Raichunite Y, Lightning Rod, Fake Out, Zap Cannon, Focus Blast, and Protect showed up on MilkVGC, 2edilso, and ProfSkarmoryYT.
Takeaway for ladder players: prepare for Rillaboom-centered tempo teams, Garchompite Z special coverage, and multiple forms of Fake Out pressure in Regulation Set M-C.
