Mega Charizard X & Y Team Guide for VGC
Summary
The Pokémon Champions | VGC Battles & Tournaments server provides a deep dive into competitive Mega Charizard team building. This discussion compares the meta-dominant Charizard Y against the physical threat of Charizard X, offering optimized team pastes for both variations. It is an essential resource for players looking to improve their VGC performance and understand current competitive strategies.
Hey, I’ve followed the competitive scene for a while but never really participated. I haven’t followed much post champions release but I’d like to get into it. Since I don’t have much competitive experience and don’t know the current meta idk where to start team building. I’d like to make a Mega Zard team, whether it be x or y or one for each. Can yall help me?
well
zard y is the meta rn
and its really easy to make teams with it
yeah you basically just put zard y with 5 other meta mons and you win. It's so good that you don't really even need another mon to take advantage of the sun and you'll still get amazing value.
the two variations I've seen with it is the whism's with glimmora
and the one with sylveon
I've mostly seen those
Zard X is a monster if you can play carefully enough
The biggest difference is, Yard is a special sun spread attacker. Xard is a physical single target attacker. The only other real difference outside of those is Xard loses his 4x weakness
In fact, xard benefits most from snow over sun imo
Since aurora veil covers it so well and allows it to get dragon dance up at least once
Discord sent us an expired image link.
idk about ev's though
I used to run a xard team I made. Couple other people use mine and have done allegedly 8-2 avg
Lemme see if I can find it

I have another built that is more offensive with Sylveon in place of sinistcha
Works very well next to Xard
Ah the a9 stats are wrong
Swapped to test. Normally is max speed not spd
As for yard
