Well, I already lost 5 matches due to critical hits by things not carrying scope lens at opportune times and once with Frost Breath missing the only time I used it (you had one job Glaceon) along with a lucky crit on their side in the same match. Not even going to bother with rank now. I figured I'd lose at least 10% matches this way, but not 25%.
I also underestimated speed in this meta. I definitely should've made my Flareon faster, fast enough to outspeed max Leafeon after one Flame Charge. Also one of the better strategies I saw was Trick Room Curse Flareon. That thing was nasty but good thing it had guts allowing me to stall it out. A non-guts variety would be absurdly hard to kill. While interesting this didn't surprise me (curse reveals TR instantly) and he only got TR off because he was using focus sash on Espeon. In fact no team today surprised me, just their lucky crits and that one terrible miss. Only one of my Leaf Blades crit when highly desired, the rest were overkill or still safe even if I didn't crit.
Here was my team. Never used Vaporeon because I should have given him Sunny Day over Toxic. I expected a more stall heavy metagame but with swords dance and curses flying around with nothing but haze to stop them stall just isn't happening. For the same reason, Kee berry was ok but not great, though I really don't know a better item. Really should have put Protect on Leafeon instead of Synthesis, though that did help me once or twice when my wish user was already down.
