camronghorashi’s winning team was built around a clear rain structure with Pelipper providing Drizzle, Tailwind, and Focus Sash utility. Pelipper’s Protect, Weather Ball, Hurricane, and Tailwind gave the team immediate tempo control, while Archaludon paired naturally with the rain mode through Electro Shot alongside Dragon Pulse, Flash Cannon, Protect, Leftovers, and Stamina. Basculegion added a fast Choice Scarf attacker with Adaptability, Wave Crash, Flip Turn, Aqua Jet, and Last Respects, giving the team both direct pressure and pivoting.
The support layer was just as important. Grimmsnarl carried Light Clay with Prankster, Parting Shot, Spirit Break, Reflect, and Light Screen, giving the team a durable defensive framework. That made sense next to bulk-oriented pieces like Calm Leftovers Archaludon and Mega options in Venusaur and Metagross. Venusaur used Venusaurite with Chlorophyll, Modest, Protect, Earth Power, Sludge Bomb, and Giga Drain, while Metagross used Metagrossite with Clear Body, Jolly, Protect, Iron Head, Psychic Fangs, and Body Press. The final composition had speed control, screens, rain pressure, and multiple attackers that did not rely on the same damage type.
Across the top four, several patterns stood out. Focus Sash appeared on Pelipper, Excadrill, Whimsicott, and Kingambit, making it one of the most common items among the highest finishers. Life Orb also showed up repeatedly on Sneasler, Garchomp, and Talonflame. Sitrus Berry appeared on Farigiraf and Garchomp, while Leftovers was used by Archaludon and Milotic.
There was also a noticeable emphasis on speed control. Tailwind appeared on Pelipper, Staraptor, Whimsicott, and Talonflame across the top four teams. Trick Room was present on Farigiraf and Gardevoir, giving the third- and fourth-place teams alternative pacing options. Weather was another major theme: camronghorashi used Pelipper rain, while manuel_ortuno brought Tyranitar with Sand Stream next to Excadrill with Sand Rush.
In terms of repeated Pokemon, Staraptor appeared on both manuel_ortuno’s and Gymprincess99’s teams, each with Staraptite and Intimidate. Metagross was used by camronghorashi and Gymprincess99, both with Metagrossite and Clear Body. Basculegion appeared on the first- and fourth-place teams with Adaptability, and Garchomp appeared on the third- and fourth-place teams with Rough Skin.
Takeaway for ladder players: prepare for teams that combine Tailwind or Trick Room with strong item efficiency, especially Focus Sash leads and rain-supported attackers.
