Stage teams 15-40

15-40, a level-284 stage, opens lane 1 a row earlier than the rest. Electroar stands in the second row, then Turtuff, Humbleetle and Surgehoof. Electroar's arc knocks enemies back before they reach Turtuff, Humbleetle's dung balls slow them where they land, and Surgehoof splashes into the slowed group.

The other lanes start in the third row or later. Lane 5 is the tiger lane from 15-20, moved to a new place: Stalkerix in front, Kitjitsu, then Ignisnap setting the burn that lets the tiger dash and heal. For this stage, lane 4 is Voltling, Cheerlet and Sparkdoe, two paralyses with a healer between them. Here, lane 2 is Pyrohound, Rockfu and Frugatoad.

Lane 3 is the gap. Ripplewing and Frostpaw start in the fourth row with no guardian, relying on Sleep and Slow to keep enemies away. If anything leaks through, it's likely to be there.

Since this lineup has no listed swaps, Frostique for Frostpaw and Frugagon for Frugatoad are the obvious upgrades, the same ones that worked on nearby stages.
