Mega Staraptor and Mega Raichu VGC Team Tips
Summary
In Pokémon Champions | VGC Battles & Tournaments members test a team built around Mega Staraptor and Mega Raichu. The announcement covers missing ground coverage and speed control, suggestions like swapping Incineroar for Garchomp, using Tailwind, dedicating attackers to Scovillain, and adding Protect or moves like Aqua Jet and Dragon Claw to improve matchups.
I wanted to try building a team with these two, and I'm finding some success, but I'm also missing ground type coverage and meaningful speed control, how do y'all think we could tweak this

I'd say garchomp over incin
That's not a bad idea
Made a couple changes, my scovillain matchup is not as good and I don't have protect on most mons, also I don't have fire type coverage but I have tailwind and better offense

Fire type coverage isnt too important
As for the scovillain matchup, can probably just dedicate one of your attackers to just killing them
Like Basculegion
fair enough
I was thinking also of swapping a few moves for protect, like aqua jet on basc and dragon claw on garchomp
