Annihilape/Toxapex Sun Balance

Doubles • Regulation Set M-B

Synergy

Shares Charizard's Sun and Toxapex's stall shell with other Sun Balance builds this season, but swaps in a Focus Sash Annihilape that punishes Incineroar with Defiant and outpaces most Charizard for immediate Rock Tomb pressure.

Win Conditions

Annihilape threatens fast Rock Tomb and Close Combat knockouts on the Fire types that otherwise trouble Charizard, Venusaur, and Garchomp, while Charizard's Sun and Toxapex's stall grind down the rest of the opposing team.

Threats

Not detailed explicitly in the video. Annihilape is built to hit hard and pull back rather than stay in, so the team can lose value if it can't find a safe Close Combat window against slower, bulkier answers.
