Pokemon Ultra Sun Team Builder

A Pokemon Ultra Sun team builder (and Ultra Moon) should respect Alola’s trial structure: totem auras, regional forms, and dual-types that look cute until four of them share a Ground weakness. Coverage still wins island challenges.

Draft in the Ultra Sun / Ultra Moon planner — or start with Sun/Moon mode if that is your cartridge.

What makes this game’s team building different

• Trials replace classic gyms — bosses still have types; prepare answers, not only levels.
• Regional forms change expected matchups (Alolan lines especially).
• Fairy and Dark show up constantly in mid-to-late Alola.
• Ultra content rewards flexible coverage more than one hyper-offensive mon.

Core roles for your party

1. Starter path — Decidueye, Incineroar, or Primarina each leave different holes.
2. Ground or Electric — depending on whether Water or Electric is deleting you.
3. Fairy or Steel — dragons, dark, and fighting edges.
4. Water or Grass — island route glue.
5. Dark / Ghost / Fighting — Psychic and Normal walls.
6. Bulky pivot — totem fights punish pure glass.

Common type traps

• Stacking four Flying weaknesses into Rock/Electric/Ice.
• No Ground answer for Electric totems and routes.
• All Fire because Incineroar is cool.
• Ignoring Fairy into late dragons and fighting cores.

How to use the planner

1. Choose Ultra Sun / Ultra Moon (or Sun / Moon) in the grid.
2. Build six you will actually train through trials.
3. Read defense tallies for Ground, Ice, and Fighting stacks.
4. Keep four-plus STAB types for UBs and league energy.
5. Share the URL for co-op or nuzlocke notes.
