STAB with Flash Cannon and Fire Blast but also the rather convenient ability Levitate which makes it immune to its 4x weakness to ground. Hydreigon passes on its
typing.
Barbaracle can abuse his STABs on movepool with his now
making Dragon Claw and Night Slash as well as Shell Smash on Stone Edge or Poison Jab. Barbaracle's
typing transfers over to the next pokemon.
Tyranitar doesn't get to much out of the typing but provides some nice special defense boost to the team with Sand Stream.

to the final team mate.
Mega Heracross now has access to Knock Off and Rock Blast STAB thanks to it recieving
. This also allows it good coverage moves to help support its typing like Close Combat being able to get rid of Dark-types and Bullet Seed to get rid of Water types. Heracross'
tranfers over to the first pokemon in the party which is Scizor. This helps to boost Scizor's Superpowers and also still keeps Technician Bullet Punch to deal with fairy types since Scizor is now weak to it.

FAQ
Q: Does Mega evolution effects the pokemon's type?
A: It affects the pokemon that has the mega's typing. for example if the pokemon that was recieving Gyarados's typing was Latios it would be a Water/Flying type prior to mega evolving. But if Gyarados Mega evolves Latios then becomes a Water / Dark type.

What is Type Exhange?
Type Exchange is a metagame where the typing of one pokemon transfers over to the next pokemon in the party. This forces the player to think a lot more about teambuilding because every pokemon literally affects the other. If you are still struggling to piece this together here is an example of a teambuilding process.
