Building a Hard TR Sun Team: Finding the Perfect 6th Mega
Summary
The Pokémon Champions | VGC Battles & Tournaments server is diving deep into competitive team building. This discussion focuses on optimizing a hard Trick Room sun team by selecting a second Mega Pokémon capable of countering major threats like Mega Charizard Y, Mega Swampert, and Kingambit. Community members are actively debating potential candidates and movesets to ensure the team remains viable in the current VGC meta.
I am building a TR sun team, I have 5 Pokemon so far:
https://pokepast.es/013e226f79236b4f
I'm looking for a 6th member of the team that is my 2nd mega that can deal with Mega Charizard Y, Mega Swampert, and Kingambit, as those are the threats I am worried about. If possible, benefits from sun as well. Any thoughts on stats and movesets would be appreciated as well!
I would suggest finding a second mega
Could be for a different team mode but you’ve gone pretty hard into trick room
yea thats why i put the team
im looking for 2nd mega
my default mode is farig incin and crab torkoal in back
ik ur good at trick room can u help me find a good mega?
Camerupt
Mawile
Or the wahh special drampa
https://klipy.com/gifs/drampa-pokemon-5
Yeah ok
Lemme think
Actually
Play Pyroar
It gives you a great non-TR mode
And also synergises really well with Torkoal and Farigiraf
Camerupt goes too hard into TR and Mawile is the same AND you already have a physical mega
thats what this team is for
hard tr
i didn't want drampa incase i was forced to bring cloud nine in when torkoal already set up sun
and mawile is another physical
camerupt makes 3 fire types
i need something that can beat kingambit, swampert, and charizard
any thing to help with these 3 mons?
Hmmm
That is not easy at all
Closest youll get probably actually is Drampa
i mean i have crab to deal with king
so really just zard y and mega swamp
chat does ampharos work
actually nvm
little help here?
https://pokepast.es/013e226f79236b4f
Swampert and charizard?
A water type would prob be best against swampert
And charizard
ya, i need a slow mega that works in tr for this
Oh a mega???
I was gonna suggest araquanid but needing a mega makes that difficult
slowbro perhaps?
thats the first thing that comes to mind
Not really a mega but primarina might work
Slowbro is rly rly gimmicky
I see lot of Sneasler weakness
So prim hurts
Maybe a steel type
steelix or aggron?
Mawile
Both very gimmicky
Scrafty or golurk are the two I see that kinda not rly deal with your yard + swampert issue
chat what about mixed attacker camerupt
solar beam rock slide
with torkoal
Nah
Solar beam torkol
Rock slide ttar?
I don't think your team should be that bad into them tho, cuz they are both fast asf and thats exploitable
t tar hurts torkoal
Right
actually my torkoal alr has solar beam
so mawile?
Mega scrafty
Or maw
Both work
alr
heres what im thinking
iron head rock slide sucker punch play rough
no protect on mawile
Holy
ill test it
but like
32+ SpA Mega Charizard Y Weather Ball (100 BP Fire) vs. 32 HP / 32+ SpD Mega Mawile in Sun: 246-290 (156.6 - 184.7%) -- guaranteed OHKO
so
lets hope rock slide connects...
alr chat
lets test
Gl
rotom wash, but its not very great rn
