Gayangos2001โs winning team was built around a very direct blend of Fake Out pressure, positioning, and special damage. Raichu with Raichunite Y, Lightning Rod, Fake Out, Zap Cannon, Focus Blast, and Protect gave the team both immediate disruption and an Electric immunity angle. It paired with two more Fake Out users: Incineroar and Rillaboom, giving the composition multiple ways to control a turn before committing to its main attackers.
Gholdengo was the clearest damage centerpiece, holding Life Orb with Good as Gold and running Make It Rain, Shadow Ball, Nasty Plot, and Protect. That set gives it immediate spread pressure while still threatening to snowball if it finds a Nasty Plot turn. Garchomp used Garchompite Z with a special set of Dragon Pulse, Power Gem, Earth Power, and Protect, giving the team another protected special attacker rather than a purely physical option.
The support structure was also notable. Incineroar brought Sitrus Berry, Intimidate, Fake Out, Flare Blitz, Darkest Lariat, and Parting Shot, while Rillaboom used Miracle Seed, Grassy Surge, Fake Out, Wood Hammer, Grassy Glide, and U-turn. Volcarona rounded the team out with Rocky Helmet, Flame Body, Overheat, Struggle Bug, Rage Powder, and Tailwind, meaning Gayangos2001 had both redirection and speed control available without giving up offensive pressure.
Across the top teams, Rillaboom was the defining common pick, appearing on all four of the top-four teams. Three of those Rillaboom used Miracle Seed, while GDPโs used Sitrus Berry. Incineroar also remained central, appearing on the champion, runner-up, and fourth-place teams, with Intimidate and Fake Out represented each time.
Raichu with Raichunite Y was another major top-table trend, appearing on the first three teams. Gholdengo with Life Orb was used by Gayangos2001, Kakudon, and GDP, and all three Gholdengo sets included Make It Rain, Shadow Ball, Nasty Plot, and Protect. Eternal Flower Floette with Floettite appeared on both lore95โs and GDPโs teams, while Volcarona appeared on the top two teams with Flame Body but different items.
Takeaway for ladder players: Fake Out-heavy balance with Rillaboom, Incineroar, Raichu, and a Life Orb Gholdengo core was the clearest successful structure from this event.
