Esquie’s winning team is a direct offensive build with several layers of positioning support. Every Pokemon on the team carries Protect, giving the composition consistent ways to manage double targets and tempo turns. Lycanroc Dusk with Focus Sash, Tough Claws, Rock Slide, Close Combat, and Accelerock gives the team immediate pressure plus priority. Sneasler adds Fake Out and Close Combat, with White Herb and Unburden making it a key early-game tempo piece.

The two stone users, Froslass with Froslassite and Scovillain with Scovillainite, give the team very different kinds of support. Froslass brings Blizzard, Shadow Ball, and Aurora Veil, letting it contribute damage while also improving the team’s ability to take hits. Scovillain uses Overheat, Giga Drain, Rage Powder, and Protect, combining redirection with mixed offensive coverage. Behind that, Kingambit with Black Glasses, Defiant, Swords Dance, Kowtow Cleave, and Sucker Punch is the clearest setup and priority threat. Basculegion rounds out the team with Sitrus Berry, Adaptability, Wave Crash, Last Respects, Aqua Jet, and Protect, giving Esquie another strong physical attacker with priority access.

The most notable trend near the top was the overlap between first and third. Zach K [US] used the same six Pokemon as Esquie: Froslass, Scovillain, Lycanroc Dusk, Kingambit, Basculegion, and Sneasler. Several item and role choices also matched, including Froslassite Froslass, Scovillainite Scovillain, Focus Sash Lycanroc Dusk, Sitrus Berry Basculegion, and White Herb Sneasler. The move details differ in places, such as Scovillain using Flamethrower instead of Overheat and Sneasler using Gunk Shot instead of Dire Claw, but the core structure clearly had a strong event.

Rain-adjacent structures also showed up high. Roy_Alphard paired Politoed with Swampert and Gengar, while Wb_vg used Pelipper, Swampert, and Archaludon alongside Charizard and Venusaur. Sitrus Berry appeared repeatedly across top teams on Politoed, Basculegion, Pelipper, and several lower top-eight support or bulky picks. Focus Sash was also common on aggressive or utility Pokemon, appearing on Lycanroc Dusk, Vivillon, Venusaur, and Glimmora in the top eight.

Takeaway for ladder players: Esquie’s run shows the value of pairing immediate pressure with Protect-heavy positioning, redirection, priority, and a reliable late-game attacker.
