Legacy Scarlet/Violet article. Preserved for archive/reference. Treat the numbers as historical reference structure, not a claim about the current Pokemon Champions tournament field.
Legacy format read
The historical format rewards flexible positioning, rain cores, and teams that can play into both Tailwind and Trick Room. Incineroar-style glue remains valuable because it improves board control.
What to test next
Run damage calculations into common rain attackers, review lead plans against Tailwind, and track whether your team has a real answer to redirection plus setup pressure.
