Pokémon Champions & VGC Best Team Cores
Find out the best team cores used in Pokémon Champions and their best teammates, based on 327 tournaments.
Competitive ranks 4-Pokémon cores by the lower bound of the 90% Wilson confidence interval on match win rate, from tournaments with at least 16 players. Only cores present on at least 1% of tournament teams qualify, and tiers are cut by standard deviation from the mean — rewarding cores that are both good and reliably good.
Finishers counts matches from players who played the whole event. Dropouts (players who quit mid-tournament) are almost always losing-in-progress, so excluding them gives a cleaner read on how the core performs in competitive conditions.
123 cores of size 4 ranked across 9962 teams (Regulation M-A).
