You are mostly right. According to what Sejun posted on his blog, his exact team is as follows.View attachment 39249
Of course Sejun ended up winning the whole thing... I watched some of his replays, and this is the team he used:
Kangaskhan @ kangaskhanite
Level: 50
EVs: 244 HP
- Low Kick
- Fake Out
- Sucker Punch
- Double-Edge
Dialga @ Shuca Berry
Ability: Pressure
Level: 50
EVs: 252 HP
- Trick Room
- Earth Power
- Flash Cannon
- Dragon Pulse
Xerneas
Ability: Fairy Aura
Level: 50
EVs: 4 HP
- Dazzling Gleam
- Geomancy
Talonflame @ Life Orb
Ability: Gale Wings
Level: 50
- Brave Bird
- Tailwind
- Quick Guard
- Taunt
Quite a straight-forward team with few tricks, but with Trick Room as an extra form of speed control. since Xerneas only had 4 HP EV's, it seems like all his pokemon had 252/252 spreads as well. It seems like Tailwind was his primary strategy though, so I'd expect his Kanga and Dialga to be Adamant and Modest, but who knows.
For a change, all the top 3 players in the world have shared their teams. All 3 used Talonflame or Crobat, which fullfills more or less the same role.
This was pretty funnyEarthquake (97.9%) — As mentioned, Garchomp’s being a Ground type in addition to being a Dragon type added much to its utility. Nearly every Trainer tapped into that strength with Earthquake. The bigger question is what the other 2.1% of Trainers were thinking. We’ll never know.
This was actually really fun to read! I hope the do this for future competitions, and that they release battle videos of the top 3 finishers like they did for the BoHMega bump (but I'm in charge here so who cares hehe) the PGL published an article talking about usage and stuff from this competition. http://3ds.pokemon-gl.com/information/c7c1001f-a9f3-4c14-9314-bda2a70d8380
Basically, they list the most used Pokemon and their most used moves. The interesting part is that they actually give some opinions and somewhat of analysis on them.
This was pretty funny
Mega Garchomp suks plz improve itDespite its ability to Mega Evolve, most Trainers went in another direction with Garchomp (only 4.9% of Garchomp held Garchompite).
