liamvgc’s winning team is built around direct offensive pressure with multiple ways to control tempo. Basculegion carried Mystic Water with Adaptability and an Adamant nature, using Wave Crash, Last Respects, Aqua Jet, and Protect. That set gives the team immediate Water-type damage, priority through Aqua Jet, and a late-game threat in Last Respects without being locked into Choice Scarf.
Eternal Flower Floette was the team’s Floettite user, running Flower Veil with Moonblast, Dazzling Gleam, Light of Ruin, and Protect. It gave liamvgc both single-target and spread Fairy damage, while Whimsicott provided the clean support package of Focus Sash, Prankster, Tailwind, Encore, Moonblast, and Protect. Tailwind is especially important here because the rest of the team is packed with attackers that benefit from moving first rather than playing a slow positioning game.
The remaining three slots rounded out the offense. Garchomp held Life Orb with Earthquake, Dragon Claw, Rock Slide, and Protect, giving spread damage and Rock Slide pressure. Charizard used Charizardite Y with Heat Wave, Solar Beam, Weather Ball, and Protect, adding another spread attacker and strong special coverage. Kingambit completed the roster with Black Glasses, Defiant, Sucker Punch, Kowtow Cleave, Iron Head, and Protect, giving the team a Dark-type endgame option and priority alongside Basculegion’s Aqua Jet.
Across the top standings, Basculegion was one of the clearest trends. It appeared on three of the top four teams and four of the top five, with liamvgc using Mystic Water while Viiv, Altkyle, and Goodwyn all used Choice Scarf. Every listed Basculegion in those placements had Adaptability and included Wave Crash, Aqua Jet, and Last Respects.
Kingambit was also heavily represented, appearing on the first, second, third, and sixth-place teams. The item choices varied between Black Glasses and Chople Berry, but Sucker Punch and Kowtow Cleave were consistent. Incineroar remained a major support presence as well, appearing on the second, third, fourth, and sixth-place teams with Intimidate, Fake Out, Flare Blitz, and Parting Shot showing up repeatedly.
Focus Sash was another common item near the top, used on Whimsicott, Glimmora, Pelipper, Sneasler, and others in the top eight. Eternal Flower Floette also stood out, appearing on the first, third, and eighth-place teams with Floettite and Fairy-type pressure.
Takeaway for ladder players: prepare for Basculegion and Kingambit endgames while respecting fast Tailwind offense backed by Focus Sash support.
