| Place | Player | Record | Team |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | jiholee32 [KR] | 7-2-0 | Vivillon, Incineroar, Politoed, Archaludon, Gengar, Swampert |
| 2 | Kravell [US] | 7-2-0 | Blastoise, Sinistcha, Incineroar, Sneasler, Delphox, Kingambit |
| 3 | Charmoffense [US] | 6-2-0 | Kingambit, Garchomp, Farigiraf, Aerodactyl, Charizard, Sylveon |

jiholee32’s winning team was built around layered control with a rain-leaning offensive core. Politoed brought Drizzle alongside Sitrus Berry, Weather Ball, Perish Song, Encore, and Protect, giving the team both weather pressure and a clear endgame button. The second Perish Song user, Gengar with Gengarite, Cursed Body, Shadow Ball, Sludge Bomb, Perish Song, and Protect, made that plan harder to ignore and gave the team another fast special attacker.
The support structure was just as important. Vivillon used Focus Sash, Compound Eyes, Sleep Powder, Hurricane, Rage Powder, and Protect, combining disruption with redirection. Incineroar filled the expected glue role with Passho Berry, Intimidate, Fake Out, Darkest Lariat, Parting Shot, and Protect, letting jiholee32 cycle positioning while reducing opposing damage. Archaludon with Leftovers, Stamina, Electro Shot, Dragon Pulse, Flash Cannon, and Protect gave the team a sturdy special attacker, while Swampert with Swampertite, Torrent, Wave Crash, Ice Punch, Earthquake, and Protect supplied direct physical pressure. The result was a team that could slow the game down with Sleep Powder, Encore, Parting Shot, and Perish Song, but still had enough damage to punish passive play.
Across the top finishers, Incineroar remained a major presence. It appeared on both finalist teams, with jiholee32 using Passho Berry and Kravell using Sitrus Berry, and it also showed up several more times in the top eight. Fake Out and Parting Shot were common parts of those sets, reinforcing how valuable pivoting and immediate tempo still are in this format.
The third- and fourth-place teams were especially similar. Charmoffense and Sanaito both used Charizard with Charizardite Y, Garchomp with Life Orb, Kingambit with Black Glasses or Focus Sash, Sylveon with Fairy Feather, and Aerodactyl with Aerodactylite. That shared shell pointed toward a proactive mode built around Tailwind from Aerodactyl, spread or high-output damage from Charizard and Garchomp, and priority or late-game pressure from Kingambit and Sylveon.
Focus Sash, Sitrus Berry, Life Orb, Charizardite Y, and Aerodactylite were all visible near the top, while Perish Song appeared on the champion’s Politoed and Gengar as a defining strategic angle.
Takeaway for ladder players: bring enough positioning tools to manage Incineroar cycles, and have a concrete plan for both Perish Song endgames and fast Aerodactyl-led offense.
