Place Player Record Team
1 Tricki [DE] 8-1-0 Sceptile, Kleavor, Indeedee ♀, Aegislash, Incineroar, Gardevoir
2 mir_merchant [US] 7-2-0 Charizard, Pelipper, Archaludon, Venusaur, Grimmsnarl, Garchomp
3 Vinnamon [SV] 7-1-0 Farigiraf, Rillaboom, Camerupt, Kingambit, Araquanid, Altaria
4 TheParasectKing [US] 5-3-0 Drampa, Krookodile, Rillaboom, Annihilape, Gholdengo, Volcarona

Tricki’s winning team combined fast pressure, redirection, field control, and strong defensive utility. The headline pairing was Indeedee ♀ with Psychic Surge, Follow Me, and Helping Hand supporting Gardevoir with Gardevoirite, Hyper Voice, and Expanding Force. That gave the team a clear Psychic Terrain offense while still retaining flexible protection through Protect and Detect across multiple slots.

The rest of the composition covered several common tournament needs. Kleavor held Choice Scarf and brought immediate attacking pressure with Stone Axe, X-Scissor, Close Combat, and Night Slash. Aegislash added Wide Guard, which was relevant in a top cut full of spread attacks such as Heat Wave, Hyper Voice, Make It Rain, and Rock Slide. It also threatened damage with Life Orb, Iron Head, and Poltergeist, while King's Shield gave it a slower, positional mode. Incineroar was the classic stabilizer with Sitrus Berry, Intimidate, Fake Out, and Parting Shot, while Sceptile with Sceptilite supplied special coverage through Energy Ball, Dragon Pulse, and Earth Power.

Across the top teams, Rillaboom was one of the clearest trends. It appeared on Vinnamon’s third-place team, TheParasectKing’s fourth-place team, and also on Altkyle, Zach K, and QueerCrocodile’s teams. The common package of Grassy Surge, Fake Out, Wood Hammer, Grassy Glide, and High Horsepower showed how valuable priority pressure and terrain control were in this field.

Speed control was also heavily represented. Tailwind appeared on Pelipper, Volcarona, and Dragonite sets, while Choice Scarf showed up on Kleavor, Krookodile, Garchomp, and Annihilape. Defensive items and positioning tools were everywhere as well: Focus Sash was used by Venusaur, Kingambit, Sneasler, Hisuian Arcanine, and Ninetales, while Sitrus Berry appeared on Incineroar, Pelipper, and Volcarona. Wide Guard was another repeated answer, appearing on Aegislash, Pelipper, and Araquanid.

The runner-up team from mir_merchant stood out for its weather layering, using Charizard with Charizardite Y, Pelipper with Drizzle, Venusaur with Chlorophyll, and Archaludon with Electro Shot. That gave the top standings a very different look from Tricki’s Psychic Terrain-based winning build.

For ladder players, the takeaway is simple: bring proactive offense, but make room for Fake Out, redirection, Wide Guard, or terrain control so you can actually position it.
