JackGโs winning team was built around a clear sand mode, with Tyranitar carrying Tyranitarite, Sand Stream, and a Jolly set of Rock Slide, Knock Off, Low Kick, and Protect. That paired directly with Focus Sash Excadrill, whose Sand Rush and Adamant Iron Head, High Horsepower, Rock Tomb, and Protect gave the team a fast physical attacker that could pressure both Steel-weak and Ground-weak targets.
The second Mega option was Salamence with Salamencite, Intimidate, and a Timid special set of Draco Meteor, Hyper Voice, Flamethrower, and Protect. That gave JackG a separate Intimidate-backed mode and a spread damage option that did not depend on sand. Sneasler added another speed-scaling threat with White Herb, Unburden, Close Combat, Dire Claw, Fake Out, and Protect, while also giving the team immediate Fake Out pressure.
The support structure was also notable. Corviknight used Sitrus Berry, Mirror Armor, Brave Bird, Bulk Up, Roost, and Protect, providing a bulkier win condition alongside the more aggressive sand pieces. Tsareena rounded out the six with Expert Belt, Queenly Majesty, Power Whip, Low Kick, Aromatic Mist, and Protect, adding Grass coverage and another Low Kick user for opposing heavy targets. Overall, JackGโs composition had multiple pressure points: sand offense, Salamence offense, Sneasler disruption, and slower bulk through Corviknight.
Across the top teams, Tyranitar plus Excadrill was the clearest repeated shell. JackG, WellspringMask, and joniaco all used Tyranitarite Tyranitar with Sand Stream alongside Focus Sash Excadrill with Sand Rush. The WellspringMask and joniaco versions were especially close, both pairing that core with Staraptor, Sinistcha, Milotic, and Gholdengo.
Sneasler was another major standout, appearing on JackG, kaori_uy, Marcos Sena, and Scarlet2. The item choices varied between White Herb, Psychic Seed, and Electric Seed, but every listed Sneasler had Unburden and Close Combat. Focus Sash was also heavily represented across the top eight, appearing on Excadrill, Armarouge, Basculegion, Hisuian Arcanine, and Basculegion โ. Sitrus Berry showed up repeatedly as well, including on Corviknight, Incineroar, Milotic, and another Incineroar.
Takeaway for ladder players: prepare for Tyranitar plus Excadrill sand, but do not ignore Sneaslerโs ability to swing positioning with Fake Out or fast Close Combat pressure.
