Pokémon team builder for VGC and Showdown: build your team, analyse type coverage, and export a paste.
Start by choosing the active format so the builder can align Pokémon, moves and items with the rules you want to test. Fill the six slots with a clear plan: offensive pressure, defensive pivots, speed control, support options and answers to the Pokémon you expect to face. The grid keeps the full team visible so you can compare roles instead of editing one Pokémon in isolation.
Use type coverage, format warnings and the tactical evaluation as checkpoints while you iterate. A strong VGC team usually needs more than six individually good Pokémon: it needs safe switches, compatible abilities, realistic damage plans, protection from common weaknesses and a way to control turn order through Tailwind, Trick Room, priority or naturally fast threats.
When the structure looks ready, export the team as a Pokémon Showdown paste or import an existing paste to refine it. This makes the builder useful both for creating new Pokémon Champions teams from scratch and for adapting tournament teams found on MetaVGC into a version that fits your matchups, comfort picks and testing notes.
