First Attempt Champions Team Build
Summary
This Pokémon Champions forum thread details a user's first attempt at building a competitive team for the game. The core strategy revolves around a Trick Room setup using Farigiraf alongside Mega Kangaskhan, supported by Intimidate from Scrafty and Aurora Veil from Alolan Ninetales to boost bulk. The discussion also touches upon optimizing the role of Whimsicott, considering item changes to improve its survivability or utility within the Hail-based team structure.

might chance Whim item, but she is gonna die fast anyway bc of hail, so might as well try to get dmg from her if i can
Scrafty is a much bulkier inc
Main opening for none ghost teams will typically be Kang + Farig to setup TR
then make sure to keep kang alive, and bring out scrafty after setting up a screen
Should be easy enough kang is super bulky and intimidate should help him
But the whimsi
Make it a fat encore version with mental herb
Or ice resist berry
Because I do see that being a issue
oh i fixed whim
