Team pitfalls when building around Darkrai Mega

  • Do not stack too many teammates that are also weak to fighting, bug, and fairy.
  • Sweepers usually need defensive pivots or status support so they can enter safely.
  • Defensive Pokemon still need offensive partners; avoid building a team that cannot pressure key types.
  • Check whether legendary or mythical Pokemon are allowed in your game rules or competitive format.
