Building a Competitive Delphox VGC Team | Pokémon Champions
Resumo
The Pokémon Champions | VGC Battles & Tournaments community is actively theorycrafting a new competitive team centered around Delphox for doubles play. This discussion explores optimal team compositions, including key partners like Incineroar, Blastoise, and Sinistcha, while debating the viability of Substitute versus Nasty Plot sets. It serves as a great resource for players looking to refine their VGC strategies and learn about current meta trends.
Im looking to build a new team around delphox but im not sure what mons would be good to use im building it for doubles battles
Again this is a vgc server bruh
I have a lot of experience with phox
Staraptor raichu Floette and blaistoise are all good secondary megas
But I will first start thinking like do u want nasty or sub?
I mean most delphox's are nasty no?
Yeah but now sub is taking the spot light in big tourneys
Probably sub
Ok
So now the secondary mega
Cough cough, let me interject
Have to do this joke it is manditory

Okey so we have a third of the team figure
Know we need support
So sinistcha, floette, blastoise, and prob like sneasler or incin is what I usually see
Yeah so cha blaistoise phox inci
Ok
This thing
Discord sent us an expired image link.
I will use gambit with life orb
That’s set up phox
Ohr we using sub
Haven't seen a single sub dephox team on the ladder in all of mb ngl
Yeah sub is for sucker-iron head-lw kick protect gambits
So u use sub and then next turn u heat wave
Ah ok
Gambit, and like sneasler ig?
Or garchomp
Ok so delphox, incineroar, blastoise, sinistcha then what should I do for the last 2 mons
Garchomp delphox is scary
Use pickerwheel to select two of the top non mega mons
Ok
So would sneasler and basculegion go good
maybe gambit chomp
Ok

Sub is in the spotlight on non double redirection teams
Always was
So that's what I've got i just want to make sure I have stuff optimized for the team
You need more Delphox and less blastoise
Ok
But more serious are the stats and moves good cause im going with sub delphox
And yes I changed them all to delphox
Well and items
This reminds me of a team I saw at worlds
Main thing I see is you have no weather control against common sun and rain teams
*Inianaop
Less Speed on blast
HP Dump
If ur gunna run Shellsmash your already going to be faster then most high tier mons anyways
The spread you have rn only really works if your swap Shell Smash out for Aura Sphere
You don’t really need it
Weather Control is irrelevant if you have Pokémon that can stomp and wall Weather benifts
Garchomp & Delphox stomp Charzard out
You just need to be carful against rain teams but you can use that too your advantage to play Blastoise
And your team is FULL of Sand team counters
Tuis team looks really weak to wide guard. Also the names are evil and I love it.
