Mega Kang & Mega Chandelure Team Help

Summary

In Pokémon Champions | VGC Battles & Tournaments a member asks for help building a fun VGC team around Meowscarada and Mega Kang. The thread discusses an Adamant Scarf Meowscarada set, choosing a second mega (Mega Charizard Y or Mega Frosslass), teammates like Sylveon Whimsicott and a fire or water option, and moves such as Knock Off Flower Trick Triple Axel and U-turn to form a strong template.

Reply

deals with a lot of meta mons

Reply

aero and chomp also basc

Reply

and then mega kang

Reply

i js love kang

Reply

n wanna use it

Reply

i guess I want another mega

Reply

besides kang

Reply

since kang is usually a secondary mega

Reply

prolly mega chard y or frosslass

Reply

id prefer frosslass but rather meega char Y if its more efficient

Reply

Yeah, whats your moves

Reply

knock off, flower trick, triple axel and u turn

Reply

debating u turn for a fighting type move but stab pivot is nice

Reply

The thing is everyone is teching for zard a lot

Reply

v true

Reply

Yeah pretty much optimal

Reply

ya

Reply

oooh me likey

Reply

mega fox looks fun

Reply

yeah np i still appreciate the idea

Reply

prolly ice punch or sucker

Reply

bite?

Reply

for flinch

Reply

ig

Reply

whats bites bp

Reply

is it 60 or 40

Reply

oh okay lowk bite mite be kinda comp

Reply

might try it out

Reply

sounds funny

Reply

def not optimal but i might

Reply

i would need to be faster than what i want to flinch tho

Reply

very situational

Reply

also low kick over drain?

Reply

i like meow , kang, sylveon I think i want basc

Reply

hmm prima could be good if we give the team a tr mode

Reply

true

Reply

but then again

Reply

sylv hyper beam go boom

Reply

yeah

Reply

and thats pretty much the only steel type id struggle against

Reply

most others get taken care of by low kick or a fire type mon ill have in the team

Reply

could also do like

Reply

meow, kang, sylveon, mega char y, whimsicott n then

Reply

maybe basc or chomp

Reply

eh well sneasler nvm

Reply

kinda dogs on everything

Reply

i see why u chose delphox now

Reply

i could also js do mega froslass as a second mega

Reply

mega froslass sylveon sounds like a pain to deal with

Reply

meow, mega kang, mega fross, sylveon, basc, n then a fire type maybe?

Reply

sumn like rotom heat or incin or chand

Reply

or a more supportive mon

Reply

idk what yall think

Reply

lmk

Reply

dont forrget ab me tiwn

Reply

my fault

Reply

I like the idea of nega delphox but

Reply

its so squishy and why mega delphox when mega char Y

Reply

Why not this with chomp as the last mon?

Reply

no fire type

Reply

I might still try mega delphox lowk just bc its niche but idk

Reply

no ik but in terms of like

Reply

coherence

Reply

😭

Reply

so the answer is no

Reply

thats all im asking lol

Reply

hoi

Reply

so i want a team with meow and mega kng

Reply

so far id like meow mega kang sylveon and basc

Reply

oh

Reply

so they recommend mega delphox

Reply

to deal with sneasler

Reply

I say why use mega delphox when mega zard y exists

Reply

then I suggested something like meow, mega kang, mega fross, sylveon, basc, chomp

Reply

but it seems to be weak against sneasler and gambit

Reply

id like mega delphox but id like this team to be consistent and i feel like mega delphox is not

Reply

yeah somewhat

Reply

I feel like its far too squishy and without the sun boost just might as well use zard y

Reply

not sure if the stab psychic is worth the trade

Reply

though it is faster

Reply

it has a fun speed stat

Reply

I might give it a try honestly

Reply

well they suggested it as a secondsry mega to deal with sneasler

Reply

which is a good option

Reply

thats what I thought

Reply

I dint believe I have speed control lol

Reply

hmm

Reply

What about whimsicott instead of sylveon

Reply

eh idk

Reply

Yeah

Reply

I just wanna get the 6 mons set

Reply

id want zard y or frosslass as a secondary mega for that weather control

Reply

true

Reply

I mean I guess we could make it a rain team?

Reply

true no rock slide or weathee control

Reply

kinda get cooked by weather control

Reply

Ive thought of mega kang and mega aero

Reply

but i feel like those 2 are both secondary megas

Reply

I mean my only option would be to match the sun or go rain

Reply

theres no reliable snow westher setter

Reply

like

Reply

mega froslass would be my only option

Reply

oh well

Reply

Theres anine

Reply

yeah

Reply

Just csme to mind

Reply

anine sounds nice ngl

Reply

never melt ice blizzards n westher control

Reply

I could even run icy wind on it too for speed control

Reply

then again

Reply

still kinda shit matchup into sun

Reply

yeah ofc

Reply

I wouldnt need sylveon

Reply

so i could do

Reply

meow

Reply

kang

Reply

anine

Reply

basc

Reply

mega delphox chomp maybe?

Reply

or go full snow with froslass as the other mega

Reply

u right

Reply

mewoscarada checks both

Reply

meowscarada is there as an antimeta check

Reply

scarf triple axel checks bith

Reply

pass the sauce then 😭

Reply

and meowscarada too?

Reply

ah cool

Reply

well lowk

Reply

im lesning into mega delphox and kang now

Reply

kinda js wanna use mega delphox now too

Reply

could do meow, kang, mega delphox, chomp

Reply

Yeah not bad

Reply

could just add anine for that

Reply

takes care of both

Reply

though still not amazing into sun, sun also benefits delphox

Reply

Could also do aero instead of chomp but I like the eq synergy with delphox

Reply

this was a quick idea they came up with

Reply

but it does lack speed control and westher as well

Reply

im all ears

Reply

or eyes actually

Reply

cause we textin

Reply

im open to all kinds of ideas

Reply

so wasdup

Reply

I wanna have my final 6 before i go to beddd

Reply

Oooh talon

Reply

The burdf

Reply

yeah for suemre

Reply

I think I do want 2 megas thi

Reply

Honestly im up for delphox

Reply

now

Reply

It looks fun and its a mega I havent used

Reply

I like this

Reply

ngl im not a fan of chomp

Reply

Id rather not use it

Reply

I alr suggested anine

Reply

I feel like weather control aint mandatory

Reply

Speed control prolly yes

Reply

what is

Reply

v true

Reply

mega, meow, mega fox, chomp, anine, basc?

Reply

then again tho team feels kinda frail with that comp

Reply

id run fat basc wil colbur prolly

Reply

or sash

Reply

yeah thats what I was thinking

Reply

id go full support on ninetails then

Reply

like blizzard aurora icy wind protect?

Reply

no fairy coverage tho

Reply

maybe even moonblast aurora icy protect

Reply

or dazzling

Reply

this is sarcasm

Reply

I just suck at team building man chill on me :(

Reply

its why I ask for help 😭

Reply

they are but I overthink it a lot

Reply

my first idea was M-Kang, meow, whimsicott, mega char Y, chomp, basculegion

Reply

that feels like it covers most things imo

Reply

I hate using chomp js csuse I dislike the mon

Reply

But i feel like I need to run it

Reply

I mean yeah but then where is my sneasler answer and rock slide user

Reply

true id get rid of whim at that point tho

Reply

ooh maybe

Reply

Kang, meow, char, aero, sylveon, basc

Reply

eh

Reply

had a better sound in my mind

Reply

char aero aint as good of a lead as whim char

Reply

lool

Reply

ill just try this

Reply

I think it covers most of my bases

Reply

lowkey wanted to use mega delphox after u gave me the idea but im too tired

Reply

ill cashapp 5 bucks to whoever helps me figure this shit out atp

Reply

I changed my mind

Reply

now I wanna

Reply

use mega kang and mega chandelure in a team that works under tr and tailwind

Reply

meowscarada is not 100 necessary

Reply

ill work on it tmr tho

Reply

if yall have any ideas for the 6 mons lmk

Reply

obv it would probably be mega kang, mega chandi, farigi, and whimsicott

Reply

yes yes

Reply

both of my favorite megas

Reply

fuck it ima win with my favorites even if it aint optimal

Reply

is it interesting in a good way or a bad way

Reply

Ooooh coool

Reply

i just realized the video the wolfey made with mega chand had kang

Reply

but it aint mega kang tho

Reply

It was regular fake out last resort silk

Reply

I do not wanna use wolfeys team tho

Reply

ts lame

Reply

no

Reply

I just came up w it rn looking at my pokemon in my box

Reply

NO

Reply

i fucking hate wolfey

Reply

so no def did not get inspired by wolf

Reply

But i was looking for chandelurw teams on poke pastes

Reply

and it said wolfey’s chandelure team

Reply

anyways i wante mega chandi and mega kang

Reply

and they would work in a tailwind/tr team

Reply

so ik the core is chandi farigi whim and kang

Reply

just gotta find the last 2

Reply

ugh I dislike precise

Reply

but id disagree

Reply

you go for whichver speed control seems best in ur matchup

Reply

yesh there will be some weird speed interactions

Reply

but

Reply

ah shit i hate that even more

Reply

😭

Reply

But I can understand

Reply

the speed tiers have to be precise ig

Reply

Mega Kang and Mega Chandelure

Reply

i just came up with the idea Ill work on the stats tommorow but today I wanna at least have my 6 mons ready

Reply

I think
Mega Kang
Mega Chandelure
Whimsicott
Farigiraf

Reply

so far

Reply

lowk I can just copy mr fraud wolfeys speed tiers

Reply

I do

Reply

but thats what the last 2 slots are gor

Reply

To counter my weaknesses

Reply

yeah ill do that tmr fs

Reply

im thinking gambit maybe

Reply

not amazing with tailwind but great in tr

Reply

I mean you always have priority

Reply

but 50 base soeed

Reply

50 base speed is kinda crazy

Reply

what do u think ab it being the 5th tho

Reply

also kang checks gambit with low kick

Reply

or drain punch still dunno which one I want

Reply

Mega kanga and giraff are good .

Reply

I do, but not sure what you mean by this question

Reply

yes yes

Reply

also no offense taken I suck at teambuilding

Reply

well since it has the ivs

Reply

In tailwind kingambit has the same speed as mega zard

Reply

I think its 70

Reply

But everyone has max speed IVs technically

Reply

Wrong

Reply

rly?

Reply

or everyone has 0 ivs

Reply

Speed Star is the most diverse stat

Reply

wym by speed star

Reply

woah thats actually interesting

Reply

I guess I just havent seen much of gambit under tailwind but under the naked eye it looks like it doesn’t make much of a difference

Reply

The all speed all attack 2hp is the first build you do

Reply

I just assumed thats all

Reply

Right

Reply

Kang is phat tho

Reply

so its not much of an issue

Reply

It is more of an issue with chand

Reply

tfue but a double up has its risks

Reply

hm okay so is it safe to say I add gambit as the 5th?

Reply

Then you evolve. As swerve said, if you have tailwind you should use it to calc. As I said, gambit speedties mega zard so in tw so theoretically speaking, you would outspeed a zard by 1 point if you have 1 point speed investment in your gambit

Reply

I understand tailroom might not be optimal and can be tricky but Its the team I wanna play so ill just deal with the bad

Reply

I understand that for sure, I was just not familiar with gambit under tailwind thats all

Reply

Mega kanga gets OHKOd by sneasler with a cc

Reply

That is why team building is tough

Reply

hmm we do need a good answer to sneasler

Reply

We do have farigi

Reply

Could js go twin beam too

Reply

for full coverage

Reply

against all sets

Reply

yepi that sounds good

Reply

Sneasler Farig is one of the hardest lead I face

Reply

yep

Reply

theres still a lot of sash sneaslers running around

Reply

If I lead kanga Farig.

Reply

You will most probably go 1 for 1 on that trade but they will most probably get TR up if they want or do whatever with their Farig and you cannot do much

Reply

okay so recap, we got
Mega Kangaskhan
Mega Chandelure
Farigiraf
Whimsicott
Kingambit

Reply

ur saying in a situation where its kang farig vs sneasler farig?

Reply

Yes

Reply

I mean

Reply

theres a lot of different outcomes on a lesd like that

Reply

I can twinbeam switch, if they think I go for the immideate tr

Reply

Sneasler Farig is a pretty common lead

Reply

My moveset prolly wont have protect

Reply

😅

Reply

I need ice punch coverage

Reply

True

Reply

I mean

Reply

I run fake out, ice punch, double edge and hammer arm on my kanga

Reply

I was thinking fake out double edge low kick or drain punch the ice punch

Reply

But it is heavily built for TR

Reply

Ahhh hammer arm is cool but thats hard tr yeah

Reply

thats why I said thats hard tr.

Reply

Unless something is 4x weak or I am 100% sure I am playing in TR, double edge does more damage than hammer arm

Reply

and yeah probably drain punch for longevity

Reply

But mega kanga kills gamit with a fighting berry with helping hand hammer arm

Reply

yeah double edge one shots so many different mons its kind of insane

Reply

mostly rather frail mons but still

Reply

hits very hard

Reply

Gambit would survive the drain punch

Reply

yeah low kick does more but it still dosent ohko

Reply

And I sometimes run primerina in the back and giraff front so gambit is a big threat that I need gone

Reply

But I struggled a bit with hyper offensive teams at times

Reply

yeah set on farig will probably be twin beam , hyper voice, trick room, and then protect/helping hand

Reply

cause helping hand with chandi would be kinda nice

Reply

With mega kanga and helping hand it would KO

Reply

not sure if its worth taking away protect

Reply

Also ttar

Reply

does drain punch helping hand ohko ttar?

Reply

I do not run hyper voice. I have 2 fighting coverage on my team for the dark types

Reply

W/o

Reply

With chople no

Reply

Ive never seen chople ttar

Reply

But low kick would

Reply

what ab mega ttar

Reply

Does it ohko mega ttar

Reply

Drain

Reply

You have to calc. Cannot tell you from the top of my brain

Reply

Drain punch does not KO 100%

Reply

Ah oki js thought u had calc pulled up

Reply

helping hand is what im curious about

Reply

ill have to calc tmr when I do stats

Reply

Even with helping hand

Reply

yeah I know

Reply

i stated ill do that tommorow again I assumed they had the calc pulled ip

Reply

anyways

Reply

i might opt for low kick but i dunno

Reply

I am not the best person to be talking calc notes from. I do not calc. I just play on vibes most of the time and then see what happens based on a varied dataset

Reply

drain punch has a lot of pros

Reply

yeah me neither, I usually learn if my mon lives certain moves as I play and always remember

Reply

its 12:17 am

Reply

for me

Reply

just finished my semester so im giving myself the luxury if staying up late

Reply

I will, I just want to have my 6 figured out

Reply

I have 5

Reply

Just need one more

Reply

You will not. The 6th mon syndrome exists for a reason. Even best team builders have 5 and then they try to what works for the 6th on ladder

Reply

You go to matches and see what you feel is missing and then slowly include that

Reply

hm okay

Reply

any Ideas at least?

Reply

Im considering sneasler

Reply

fs

Reply

only thing is I don’t really play on showdown but i have a lot of bp and hella mons so ill be fine

Reply

Ill def try sneasler

Reply

I think a good char answer is also needed

Reply

Though double edge might just do it lol

Reply

Also a team that has dual speed modes sound great but can be a pain in the hindsight to operate. You have to understand which works when and may or may not like it

Reply

Also what is char clicking in front of chandi

Reply

Use it on showdown to see how it feels

Reply

fsfs

Reply

maybe even bascu

Reply

for the last slot

Reply

yeah ill sleep on it

Reply

Isn’t your TR mode just gambit?

Reply

Kang and chand can work under tr

Reply

Primerina might be not bad or sylveon

Reply

Chandi might be a bit harder to pull off

Reply

Sylveon and mega chandi is a good combo

Reply

I did think about those however sneasler

Reply

Sylveon sounds like a good pick

Reply

at that point id be leaning hard into trick room tho

Reply

my tailwind options would be a bit more limited

Reply

Onv id still outspeed a lot of mons but not everything

Reply

You have twin beam and chandi is there for sneasler

Reply

trueee

Reply

I like how prim and sylveon sound for sure

Reply

again the only problem is then I feel like the tailwind mode is kind of eh

Reply

Bulky sylveon can survive adament dire claw and can OHKO sneasler with hyperbeam

Reply

Causw it would be okay so recap, we got
Mega Kangaskhan
Mega Chandelure
Farigiraf
Whimsicott
Kingambit
Sylveon/prim

Reply

yeah sneasler im not too worried about

Reply

Sounds good. Now rest, play and report back

Reply

yeah im gonna try sylveon and basc

Reply

see which one works best

Reply

I lowk like prim too but sylveon hits harder

Reply

sounds good preciate yall for ur time

Reply

ill let yall know how it goes tmr

Reply

If i dont forget

Reply

guys should If fo

Reply

Moonblast tailwind sunny day protect

Reply

or moonblast tailwind sunny day encore

Reply

Or moonblast tailwind encore protect

Reply
Reply

Hello

Reply

Whimsicott?

Reply

Yes

Reply

This looks cool. Even if someone changes your weather, you can get sun up but protect is nice to have unless you definitely want whim to die

Reply

i have the paste alr

Reply

i think im done? now i js gotta train my mons n hop on ladder

Reply

You can always try on showdown first

Reply

eh i dont mind

Reply

Then go for it

Reply

i enjoy playing on champs with the animations n stuff

Reply

https://pokepast.es/2eb8d76f29497b2e

Reply

I have seen people complain about losing vp on a team they did not like so cannot be too safe

Reply

All the best mate

Reply

i cant decide if i want sitrus or colbur on farigi

Reply

ive lost vp on many teams I didint like

Reply

and time

Reply

but its okay

Reply

i dont mind

Reply

Same here. But have to give waring as it is not my vp

Reply

lmk what u think ab the paste

Reply

Looks okay

Reply

You have to play with it first

Reply

yep

Reply

also one more thing

Reply

what do u think is better on farigi colbur or sitrus

Reply

The spread I have survives gambits kowtow

Reply

Depends on your needs. If you see a lot of kingambit sneasler leads, colbur is better

Reply

You actually survive a kowtow and cc

Reply

For other leads, sitrus

Reply

If you want the giraff to stick around longer go for sitrus. If you want him to get Tr up and die, go colbur

Reply

hmm something aint right

Reply

I feel like im missing damage

Reply

I also feel like in certain matchups I need to bring both kang and chandi to cover weaknesses

Reply

I think gambit gotta go

Reply

Or idk

Reply

Maybe sylveon gotta go

Reply

kinda disappointed team doesn’t feel as strong as I thought

Reply

fairigi kinda feels like a burden after it sets trick room ip

Reply

all good trial and error it is what it is

Reply

mega chandi looks good on paper but then is always a pube away from ohkoing things

Reply

No need

Reply

I have given up

Reply

though id like to make hisuian samurott work

Reply

Vgc hazards are really mid yeah

Reply

Only ok one is t-spikes I guess

Reply

yeah they are

Reply

still gonna use em tho

Reply

Ice spinner what

Reply

I think ice spinner only gets rid of terraik

Reply

not hazards
