Wait until opposing threats are weakened before attempting a Belly Drum setup with Mega Chesnaught in Pokémon Champions. Belly Drum raises its Attack to the maximum, but it also cuts its current HP in half, leaving it more exposed to a knockout before it can attack.
Choose the setup moment carefully
Keep Mega Chesnaught back while you identify Pokémon that can threaten it. Consider setting up only after those opponents have been removed or weakened enough that Chesnaught is less likely to be knocked out at reduced HP.
Avoid using Belly Drum when Chesnaught is already low on health or when the opponent can still exploit its reduced HP before it gets a chance to attack. The setup is a risk, not a guaranteed sweep.
What to expect from the team details
The available description identifies a ranked team built around Belly Drum Mega Chesnaught, but it does not name the team’s other Pokémon, moves, or items. Don’t treat redirection, speed control, or a particular item as confirmed parts of that build based on the available information.

Good guide for Pokémon Champions players. The strategy part was useful.
I tried this today and it worked better than my old setup.
Nice guide. I am checking the other Pokémon Champions articles next.
This guide answered the exact question I had.
