How to use Charizard-Mega-Y in the current VGC format

Charizard-Mega-Y is listed as a Fire/Flying 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 Charizard-Mega-Y fits in a VGC team.

The most common build highlights Drought, Charizardite Y and Timid 2/0/0/32/0/32. Its frequent moves include Protect, Heat Wave, Solar Beam, Weather Ball, Air Slash, and Overheat. 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, Charizard-Mega-Y has important weaknesses to rock 4x, electric 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 garchomp, sneasler, kingambit, aerodactyl, and incineroar appear often because they can add positioning, type coverage, speed control or safer switches into common checks.
