How to use Chandelure-Mega in the current VGC format

Chandelure-Mega is listed as a Ghost/Fire type in the current Pokémon Champions format, with usage data pulled from competitive teams, tournament results and Showdown-ready pastes tracked by MetaVGC. This page brings together its most common moveset, nature, ability, item, teammates and type weaknesses so you can judge where Chandelure-Mega fits in a VGC team.

The most common build highlights Infiltrator, Chandelurite and Timid 2/0/0/32/0/32. Its frequent moves include Heat Wave, Shadow Ball, Protect, Trick Room, Calm Mind, and Energy Ball. Treat those choices as a data-backed starting point: they show what players are bringing, while EV spreads, Tera Type and the final move slot should still respond to your expected matchups.

Defensively, Chandelure-Mega has important weaknesses to dark 2x, ghost 2x, ground 2x, rock 2x, water 2x. That matters during teambuilding because a strong composition needs ways to cover those attacks without giving up offensive pressure. Partners such as torkoal, kingambit, sylveon, farigiraf, and milotic appear often because they can add positioning, type coverage, speed control or safer switches into common checks.
