Summary
In Pokémon Champions this announcement requests team-building advice for a core of Greninja, Garchomp, and Lucario. It details EV spreads, natures, moves and items like Leftovers, Focus Sash, Lucarioite and asks about Mega and Greninjite options, aiming to improve ranked performance and counter popular metas.

Oooo!! Mega Lucario isn’t one I see often on the ranked battles
Are you a new player
Yeah kinda I’m only in great ball tier
Okay.
Also relatively new to competitive battles too
What do you want this core to do?
Also, #channel if I am not around to finish helping, some of this may help as well
Oh yeah I’ll definitely take a look through that
My strategy so far has been Greninja as a primary to sweep whatever it can and U-Turn if it’s at type advantage even with protean
Just quick bits on the most common mistakes seen. Saves me from bashing my head into snrofk
Greninja as your sweeper over mega Lucario?
And then Garchomp to try to clean up whatever it can after that fight if it’s type compatible, if not Lucario
I try to keep Lucario in my back pocket
But I’m not sure if that’s the best strategy
No one is really running him because sneasler
That isn't to say you should t
But being weak to fire ground and fighting with y-zard sun team, sand team, sneasler being the most popular rn, it makes it hard
Yeah Lucario I’m kinda open to swapping out, he’s been getting swept pretty easily my past few games
You can use greninjite as a secondary to play
If whatever main mega you choose to build around doesn't fit the typing well enough
Is there a way to get greninjite without ZA?
