Mega Blaziken VGC Team Building Guide | Pokémon Champions
Summary
The Pokémon Champions | VGC Battles & Tournaments community discusses optimizing a Mega Blaziken team for competitive play. This thread covers essential strategies for overcoming difficult matchups like Salamence and Golisopod, while exploring potential additions like Rotom-Freeze or Glaceon for ice coverage. It serves as a valuable resource for players looking to refine their physical attacker cores and improve their VGC tournament performance.
im borrowing this account from a friend since i dont have discord and need help building a blaziken team because i dont like zard y.
main goal is to let mega blaziken sweep, he matters the most so keeping him alive is a must but difficult because of his defenses
most difficult matchups are salamence because of ohkos with flying type moves, and golisopod because of a few reasons; gpod is sometimes in rain, flare blitz doesn’t ohko because of its defenses, etc.
farig is here to counter trick room, kingambit to counter intimidate/ discourage incin, basc for late game sweep, sneasler for annoying fairies, and big chomp because big chomp
i’m fine with changing the team however, as long as i keep mega blaziken.
i have a lot of mons availible so don’t worry about getting new ones

i can tell u want to ged rid of chrizardy
having 3 rockslides
but id wanna give blaziken swords dance instead
setting it up shouldn’t be a big problem since u have fakeout
ur whole team is basically physical attackers
which isnt immediately a problem
but can be difficult against pokemon with high physical defenses
since ur having trouble with salemence
id wanna add an ice pokemon
or pokemon with strong ice coverage
that easily oelneshots
since u dont have speed control other than stoping trick room and blaziken
maybe consider icy wind
true
hmmmmm
rotom freeze has icy wind and electroweb
glaceons icy wind can oneshot garchomp btw
oh really.
yeah
hmmmm
but glaceons an ice type
so not very good defensively
blaziken snow team?
i mean
u can
auora veil could definitly help
yeah
but then u have to worry about keeping alolan ninetails alive
ur already using focus sash
maybe u can set up aurora veil if u position correctly with fakeout
i could give him smth else
ig
maybe steel berry if he can tank some steel moves
with lucario z flash cannons runing around?
what else can we do
u could run scarf
but re positioning would probably be harder
dang
well
blazikens two moves are close combat and flare blitz
maybe bulk isnt the answer
just destroy as much as he can before he gets koed
on who
blaziken
yeah he probably dies
but u can use redirection
with follow me or rage powder
oh?
what are the options
ah but like salamence hypervoice
u could use indeedee
or clefable
or even maushold
wait maushold gets friend guard
i think so yeah
but i liked using technician
oh
pop bomb
cus hes really strong if u invest in him
oneshots so many pokemon
and yes including charizard y
he just needs to not miss
still salamenc hyper voice
so i gave hime wide lens
yeah idk he might still die
so just throw ice at it
yeah i used maushold anihilape when he got added
ice fang basculegion😂
wht
they will never see it coming
i dint think that oneshots
but idk
idk maybe
ill check
damage calc
just use a special attacker against salemence
with a good ice move
