This season's meta has almost no one-shot items like Choice Band or Choice Specs, but Fairy STAB from Mega Floette can still OHKO neutral targets, so the build started there. Floette's biggest headaches were speed-tying mirrors, getting outsped by Choice Scarf users, and Steel-types like Scizor and Aegislash, so a bulky HP/Def Archaludon holding Sitrus Berry became the lead, setting Thunder Wave and Stealth Rock so Floette can clean up after paralysis. Garchomp with Focus Sash covers 1v1 matchups and runs Fire Fang to threaten Scizor, Kingambit leans on Stealth Rock plus Swords Dance and Sucker Punch to lock down the field, a second Mega in Delphox patches the Ground weakness, and Basculegion rounds out the team to handle Lucario and Blaziken. The author calls the build rough around the edges but says reading past the opponent's Iron Defense Metagross and leading with Archaludon, BasculeBuild article →

The team is built around Mega Skarmory, chosen for its well-rounded stats across all dimensions. The second Mega slot goes to Lopunny, whose presence alongside Skarmory can bait opponents into thinking the Skarmory is staying non-Mega, making it easier to land Mega Skarmory. Bellibolt and Hippowdon provide high-recovery pivot support that pairs well with toxic spikes laid by Sash Meowscarada. Glimmora with Choice Scarf rounds out the team to pressure Charizard and Volcarona while picking up enemy poison spikes. Bellibolt was the MVP, winning the vast majority of games, while Lopunny's reliance on the inaccurate High Jump Kick was the main source of inconsistency.Build article →

这套是作者在 M-3 看到 Mega 巨金怪成绩最好之后，决定拿它当轴重新组的队。围绕巨金怪先补上西狮海壬——用来处理巨金怪最怕的火、地、恶，同时压制常见的挡拆位河马兽和月亮伊布，配的是睡吃梦幻果型能立命。河马兽负责应付巨金怪打不过的烈咬陆鲨、坚盾剑怪、巨钳螳螂，用哈欠磨节奏。铝钢桥龙填魔幻假面喵、宝石海星、暴鲤龙、甲贺忍蛙这几个正面吃亏的位置，兼顾撒隐形岩和龙尾送走。烈咬陆鲨带气势披带加剑舞，专门破妙蛙花、钢铠鸦、月亮伊布这类受回，同时首发压晶光花+快龙+坚盾剑怪的组合。最后一格原本用 Mega 快龙，因为对 Mega 花叶蒂和 Mega 暴鲤龙胜率太差，换成 Mega 甲贺忍蛙——带草结能从上面越 Mega 暴鲤龙，对花叶蒂周边的坚盾剑怪、河马兽也打得动，最终日反而是它出场率最高，作者自认没有它上不去这个名次。短板方面作者点名怕晶光花+长耳兔、晶光花+风妖精、长耳兔+幽尾玄鱼、喷火龙和路卡利欧。Build article →

The author felt the format lacked strong Ice-types and that Fairies besides Mega Floette were underpowered, so he built around Mega Dragonite paired with a Fairy that breaks Dragon coverage, settling on Sitrus + Encore Primarina as the starting core. He then added Scarf Garchomp to handle fast Megas and dish out damage, plus Swords Dance Mimikyu as a matchup piece and breaker. Perish Mega Gengar serves as a second Mega, crushing tricky Mega Floette and ignoring Encore from threats like Mega Clefable that the team otherwise loses to. Iron Defense Corviknight rounds it out as a cushion that pairs well with Gengar. Mega Dragonite snipes weakened foes with Draco+Extreme Speed and freely Air Slashes slower targets; Gengar uses Destiny Bond after Perish Song to guarantee KOs. The usual lead is Primarina + a Mega + one filler. Stated weaknesses: Sash Gengar, Mega Glimmora, Stealth Rock + Taunt Mega Archaludon, Bellibolt and Vanilluxe.Build article →
The team starts from a Sash Basculegion, banking on opponents over-respecting the Choice Scarf version and getting caught off guard. The two Mega slots go to Dragonite for breaking tanky teams and Lopunny with Fake Out plus Megaton Kick for softer targets. Primarina, Archaludon, and Lucario fill out the roster, with Lucario specifically assigned to counter Meowscarada that Basculegion draws out, and to clean up Charizard teams with Aura Sphere and Rock Slide. The author notes Lopunny's unreliable Megaton Kick was the biggest flaw and the root cause of inconsistent results, while the overall team maintained solid stability across the final ladder.Build article →
The author calls this Aegislash-Dragonite, built around cycling those two. With new Megas up this season, strong Normals like Lopunny and Kangaskhan dropped off, so Aegislash could be brought to almost any team; when he Swords Dances and Hippowdon comes in, it usually Earthquakes, so he just Swords Dances again and often wins easily. Dragonite locks games down just by cycling Dragon Pulse and Roost, and its Fire move was switched from Fire Blast to Flamethrower to keep damage on Mawile and Metagross. Garchomp swapped Stone Edge for Stealth Rock on the final day because Mega Venusaur was too heavy; since the back is usually Aegislash-Dragonite, tanking a hit with the Sash then retreating to leave Rough Skin damage matters a lot. Meowscarada is the only reason he beats Mega Gyarados, which the core loses to, and Primarina's Encore handles annoying Lopunny, Kangaskhan, and Mamoswine. SpeciaBuild article →

Hiyopen kept last season's core almost untouched: lead with Basculegion or Archaludon to break the board open, use Perish Song Gengar to keep a numbers lead, then close with Umbreon. He prefers mastering one team over rotating, so it naturally beat Ninetales-Garchomp screen setups and Hydreigon-Metagross builds. Archaludon leads with Reflect against Mawile, then Luster Cannon plus Gengar's Shadow Ball handles steels; Gengar runs max Speed to widen Perish Song coverage and trade one-for-one or better off enemy setup mons. Umbreon uses Yawn for positioning and covers the fairies and fighters Gengar hates. He flags Life Orb Mimikyu, Grassy Glide Floette, Venusaur plus Umbreon, Blastoise, and Nasty Plot Gholdengo as his rough matchups, so he cut Lopunny for Toxapex to shore up bulk.Build article →
The build started when the author noticed Incineroar and Floette clicked well: burn things with Will-O-Wisp, then let Floette set up on the crippled Steel-types. Incineroar eventually got cut because Stealth Rock and pre-Mega Metagross wore it out, so its job was split between a bulky Life Orb Mimikyu (with Will-O-Wisp for guaranteed action) and Archaludon, which handles opposing Mimikyu/Delphox and sets up its own tempo. Running two Fairies bait Steels in, which the team then burns and sets up on. Mirror Armor Corviknight is stacked in Sp.Def so even Specs Aegislash becomes setup fodder. Sash Garchomp exists purely to deny opposing setup, and Mega Gyarados cleans when Floette/Corviknight can't. The author says the setup engine is solid and Mimikyu's workload basically decides the match, but stall matchups usually end in forced draws and the rising Iron Head/Meteor Mash Metagross meta is dragging the build's value down.Build article →

Otake's cycle team wears the opponent down with chip damage while pushing an ace through, and pressures picks at team preview to bait bad selections. He built around low-weakness, high-bulk cores: leftovers Hisuian Goodra as the special wall, weak only to Ground and Fighting (types with few strong special moves), so it plays like a wall with no real weakness, and its 600-stat base lets it fight back physically against Calm Mind sweepers. Sitrus Hippowdon is the physical wall, laying Stealth Rock and pairing with Dragon Tail to break things. Mega Blastoise is the ace; it usually fears Primarina, but Goodra dominates Primarina, so he cycles with others to open a lane. Late-added Mega Meganium baits fire types and locks with Encore; Toxapex spreads Toxic Spikes on Primarina and Meowscarada. He admits Choice Scarf Gholdengo had poor synergy and the lowest usage, barely seeing play.Build article →
作者从六代就在用的三首恶龙+大嘴娃组合起家：这俩纯靠属性相性和威吓打循环，几乎每一步都是猜招，所以想找个能做出「中间选项」的软垫。于是先加了对火焰鸡强、能应付一堆对面的河马兽；再针对能立铁壁的巨金怪+西狮海壬这条线，塞进第二只Mega耿鬼，两边都能压。之后为了给双Mega做循环、顺便挡烈咬陆鲨和暴鲤龙，收了暴鲤龙自己；最后一格留给正面单挑用的西狮海壬拓宽出场组合。大嘴娃走循环型而非场地反转，因为谜拟丘要打嬉闹和双Mega跟场地反转配合不好。河马兽满速追顶点电肚蛙和最慢60族，砂还能剥Mega快龙的多重鳞片，让三首恶龙+大嘴娃这套也敢派上去打有快龙的队。三首恶龙耐久堆到能挡特化铝钢桥龙的流星群，也常首发展开。耿鬼火力拉满秒西狮海壬，实际出场率比大嘴娃还高，Mega比例大概耿鬼六成、大嘴娃四成。暴鲤龙HB挡+1恰雷姆的百万吨飞踢，技能带自暴自弃针对巨钳螳螂，最后一战1HP扛下来是MVP。西狮海壬带神秘水滴+冥想，对镜像和纯对撞局能压缩出场名额。明确认输的坑是替身型Mega快龙，河马兽没吼叫掀不动多重鳞片，只能靠对面出现得少来回避。Build article →
