Mega Eelektross/Blaziken Coaching

DoublesRegulation Set M-B

Synergy

Focus Sash Blaziken's Coaching hands an immediate Attack and Defense boost to bulkier partners like Eelektross-Mega and Garchomp, letting them break through answers faster than their base stats alone would allow. Kingambit and Eelektross-Mega both punish the Intimidate and Parting Shot pivots that would otherwise slow that plan down. Life Orb Ninetales-Alola contests the weather war with Snow Warning and cleans up with Blizzard and Freeze-Dry once the opposing weather is gone.

Win Conditions

Coaching from Blaziken boosts an ally's Attack and Defense on the spot, letting Eelektross-Mega or Garchomp punch through bulkier answers immediately instead of needing their own setup turn. Eelektross-Mega can also stack Coil independently for a plus two Attack and Defense sweep behind Wild Charge and Drain Punch. Ninetales-Alola wins the weather war with Snow Warning and mops up with Life Orb Blizzard and Freeze-Dry in the endgame.

Lead Options

Focus Sash Blaziken + Eelektross-Mega, Kingambit + Ninetales-Alola

Threats

Trick Room teams exploit Eelektross-Mega's low base Speed and the team's lack of dedicated Speed control. Fast threats like Aerodactyl and Mega Gengar still outspeed Blaziken even after a Speed Boost. Evasion-stacking strategies such as Minimize and Acupressure on Pokemon like Overqwil complicate the team's accuracy-reliant moves, and Unaware users ignore the Coaching and Coil boosts the plan depends on.
