Welcome to another episode of VGC 18 Baek to Baek Battles, a VGC Battle Spot Series as I go on the Championship Battle Spot Ladder and play some games. The goal of the series is to try out new Pokemon, new strategies and learn as we battle one battle at a time towards the end of the season and the VGC 2018 World Championship!

For the finale team of VGC 2018 Baek to Baek Battles, we're using Mega Tyranitar. Regular Tyranitar tends to be the more popular option due to its already incredible stats but Mega Tyranitar's combination of bulk and offense is insane. Bein able to do well against most common Mega Evolutions like Gengar and Charizard is also a plus! Today, Lurantis takes the star seat again for its return on the series!
