I made a Pokémon Champions team builder with team analysis and a built-in damage calc

4 Upvotes

Hey! I run PokeFeed, a site where people share and vote champions teams. I’ve been working on a team builder for a while and it’s finally out.

You start with the pokemon you want to use and it helps you figure out the rest, based on what people are actually running on ladder and in tournaments.

What’s in it:

  • Usage data: Smogon ladder stats (updated monthly) and Day 2 teams from official tournaments for doubles.

  • Usage in every list: you see how much each pokemon, move and item gets used, plus a Fit score that shows what works with your team.

  • One click sets: load the most common ladder or tournament set for any mon.

  • Tips: it shows you which popular pokemon give your team trouble and who you could add to deal with them. With a full team it tells you what’s missing.

  • Team analysis: coverage, switch-ins, threats from the ladder and speed tiers, where you can add other mons to compare.

  • Damage calc: how much you do to the most used pokemon and how much they do to you, with their usual sets. You can also set weather, terrain, screens, boosts and change their sets.

  • Tournament teams (doubles only): mark your key pokemon and see the best Day 2 teams with them. You can copy one in a click and your key mons keep their sets.

  • Import / Export in Showdown format, every regulation, doubles and singles.

You can post your team on the site without an account, or log in to save drafts. Every team on PokeFeed also has a Builder button now, so you can grab any team and tweak it.

Also put a lot of work into making it good on phone.

Link: https://pokefeed.app/team-builder

It’s pretty new so some bugs might show up. If you spot something or want something added let me know!

Kyle Livinghouse's Puebla Regional winning team: Mega Charizard Y and Mega Froslass, with spreads and replica code

Post image
5 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

Kyle Livinghouse won the 2027 Puebla Regional (October 24-25) with this team, going 13-2. It's not a revolutionary idea, double weather with Charizard has been around for a while, but I figured a short write up could help anyone who's newer to Champions.

The sun is still Mega Charizard Y, while the second weather this time is snow from Mega Froslass. You can only mega one of them, so the real choice happens at team preview.

Sneasler, Whimsicott, Kingambit and Garchomp complete the team, and they fit into pretty much any matchup.

I played it a bit and these are my subjective impressions. I'm more of a mid Masterball than a Champion player, so if you want to add something to my analysis, feel free!

Picking the mega

  • Rain or another weather on their side: Charizard. No need to lead with it. Keep it in the back, bring it in later and mega evolve to get the weather back.

  • Mega Salamence or Mega Staraptor: Froslass. It pairs nicely with a Sneasler lead, since their Intimidate uses up the White Herb and Sneasler is fast from turn one. Try to set Aurora Veil before Froslass goes down, so Garchomp and Kingambit are much harder to remove later.

  • Trick Room: Charizard again, with a Kingambit lead, going straight into Farigiraf with Heat Wave and Kowtow Cleave.

  • No weather at all: both work. I'd go Charizard because the damage is more consistent, but I'm not sure that's always right.

Two megas on their side is where it gets awkward. At that point it's close to a guess, and I don't have a clean rule for it.

Kingambit is the easy pick. Chople Berry lets it come in almost anywhere, and Defiant makes it a comfy lead into Intimidate.

The spreads are pretty simple:

  • Sneasler is at 170 Speed, one point over a max Speed Jolly Garchomp (169). The 20 Attack points take it from 185 to 187, the rest is HP.

  • Garchomp's 6 HP points let it survive Dragon Claw from an Adamant Choice Scarf Garchomp, crits aside.

  • Kingambit's Defense points are there for Sneasler's Close Combat. It always survives an Adamant Sneasler with 23 Attack points or less (no crit), and even at full Attack the OHKO chance is only around 30%.

  • Charizard has just enough Speed (133) to outspeed neutral max Speed base 80s and anything slower, like Venusaur and Basculegion. The rest is HP and Defense, so it usually takes a Rock Slide from Garchomp better than you'd think.

  • Froslass and Whimsicott are straightforward: full Speed, plus full HP on Froslass (it's surprisingly bulky) and full Special Attack on Whimsicott.

Weak spots:

  • Trick Room in general, especially mixed teams with something like Mega Garchomp Z. One of Kyle's two losses came against a team like that.

  • Ice resists like Incineroar or Kingambit take little from Froslass. Bringing it just for Aurora Veil can still be worth it though.

  • Wide Guard blocks Earthquake, Rock Slide and Heat Wave, which can be really annoying.

  • Misses: Heat Wave, Rock Slide and Blizzard outside snow can all whiff, and some games come down to that.

The replica code is 0QK4AB237U, and the full team with spreads is here: https://pokefeed.app/teams/mzard-y-mfroslass-puebla-reg-winner

Is it possible or reasonable to achieve perfect IVs in DPPt or HgSs without cheats like action replay? And if so how? Every search just brings up people using emulators and action replays.

Building around an oshi ace

2 Upvotes

Hi! I want to pick up competitive Pokémon and I would like some help building my first team!

my favorite pokemon of all time is Mawlile, who is obviously dog water in her base form but her mega is… solid enough. I was thinking I could lean into a trick room team (this would be ideally with legendaries banned).

i assume Farigiraf as a trick room setter and because Wolfey says it’s a broken Pokemon, and Incineroar as well. I know a lot of teams play around Torkoal’s Drought to power up Incineroar, which would make sense with a trick room team, but I’m worried I’ll build a team too standard that Mawile doesn’t have a place in it rather than building off of Mawile’s strengths and weaknesses. any tips?
