It should, but with Volt Switch you KO, and also get the benefit of breaking Drought, setting up sandstorm, and switching in Ttar pretty much for free.

Iirc, what happened in the match was that the opponent switched Greninja in on my Alakazam on the turn I went mega, blocking a Psyshock. After that turn the whole Protean mix-up ensued. If I'm not recalling correctly, then you are definitely right; there must have been some EV spread/nature...

Pretty sure this won't be a popular example, but I really like the synergy between Mega Manectric and Ttar. It's a great combo to kill Charizard Y, for example. Volt Switch into Ttar, which will hit CharY hard and break Drought, and then Pursuit for the KO.
