I don't know if this is a competitive team of if it is a team that was made up of some of the most popular Pokémon and a bunch of Legendary Pokémon. If you don't know what I am going over, not everyone is a competitive battler, you might come across players using their main story teams, which usually consist of a Starter Pokémon, a bunch of Pokémon you find through the main story, and sometimes the box Legendary Pokémon of that version, and they usually don't have the best Natures or are EV Trained. We get the Treasure Eatery of Medali for this battle, and there are only four stadiums that can appear in online battles, this is where you can change a Pokémon's Tera Type, but you need 50 Tera Shards, and it takes a lot of time to grind up some if you can only get up to four Tera Shards per Tera Raid.
With my opponent's team, I did see the lead of Greninja and Charizard, two of the most popular Pokémon in the series, Greninja even won two polls for most popular Pokémon, and Charizard has been around since Generation 1, both of which were even playable characters in the Super Smash Bros. series. My opponent has the Shiny variants for both of them, Shiny Greninja is one of the most popular Shiny Pokémon due to the black colour scheme to it, same with Charizard.
My opponent has three of the Treasures of Ruin, they have really powerful Abilities where they lower the stat of all Pokémon on the field except that Pokémon, this does also affect teammates, Wo-Chien has Tablets of Ruin, which decreases the Attack stat of all Pokémon on the field except Wo-Chien, while Ting-Lu has Vessel of Ruin, which has the same effect, except it is Special Attack that is decreased instead, my opponent did have Chien-Pao, but it wasn't used, and between the time of recording this video and it going live, Chien-Pao did get banned to the Uber tier because of its high Speed and Attack, as well as Swords of Ruin, Chien-Pao's Ability which decreases its opponent's Defense when it is in battle.
This is where I test out Tinkaton, as well as give Meowscarada another chance to battle. Tinkaton has an Assault Vest for her item, and I originally was going to use Tinkaton in my other team I used in Single Battles, but her typing clashed with another Pokémon on that team, and I had Ceruledge planned for this team, but to give my teams a bit more variety, I ended up putting one of them on the other team. Tinkaton has Gigaton Hammer, her signature move, and this move hits very hard, Knock Off to remove the opponent's item, and Play Rough for her main Fairy-type move. I reveal Glimmora's Tera Type in this battle, I chose Grass to give him a resistance to Ground, but do note that like with Sword & Shield, when I make different teams, I sometimes bring back a Pokémon that I have previously used, so there is a chance that Glimmora or any of the Pokémon that I used in this battle will be brought back on future teams.
It was good seeing my opponent using two of the Swords of Ruin, and the two picked were the least used members, Wo-Chien doesn't see much use as it is meant to be the more defensive, but its typing isn't that great defensively, as it is 4x weak to Bug and it is weak to many types, Wo-Chien usually has a different Tera Type to its regular type, Water is a good choice as that give Wo-Chien a resistance to Fire, while Steel is a good option, the downside is it keeps its Fighting-type weakness. As with Ting-Lu, Poison or Fairy are good Tera Types defensively, as Ting-Lu is the slowest out of the Treasures of Ruin, but it does have a massive HP stat, while having good Attack and Defense. It would have been nice to see my opponent use Miraidon in this battle to see if I can stand up to it, because I have read that Miraidon is very overpowered, but I don't know if my opponent's Miraidon is EV trained, or any of the Pokémon used in this battle were.
