Regular ampharos can be substantially more powerful holding a choice specs( Mega ampharos is 471 sp. atk, specs ampharos is 541). Plus, it outspeeds azumarill by 5 points, which is especially helpful considering most azumarill users would expect the mega version and go for play rough instead of...

The solution to kelfki is obviously own tempo numel. Immune to thunder wave and swagger. Not to mention it has a super effective stab against it. Sorry, 2 super-effective stabs.

How is hydreigon a "shit mon" in any way, shape or form? It has great synergy with megagross as stated. It's special attack is still pretty good and it learns flash cannon to hit fairies.

Honestly, what is the worst new mega? Right down to it, M-Beedrill. I am not, by any means, saying beedrill is bad; it is a solid mega with a good ability and ok type coverage. However, that's where its pros end; Pitiful defense, low bp moves, stealth rock weakness, and vulnerability to priority...

The tiny movepool pidgeot has is the real issue. It has to run HP ground, which requires either an imperfect special attack iv or imperfect ivs in every other stat, or it won't be able to touch heatran. With it however, it can deal with heatran fairly nicely: 252 SpA Pidgeot Hidden Power Ground...

Yeah, mega beedrill has very scary stats, the bane of existence for fairies, and good coverage on some common steels, though it's walled to hell and back by skarmory. Magnezone would make a good teammate. Unfortunately defense evs are required to survive bullet punches and aqua jets, so that...

The sad, sad truth, I'm afraid.

I assume you're talking about beedrill?

Uh yeah. People have explained that evs in defense can save it from priority. Base 150 atk is nothing to laugh at when backed by adaptability.

I'm sorry, but work up Audino is pointless. Base 60 Atk and 80 Sp. Atk are just deplorable for a mega evolution, so I think it can only be used defensively; and it would be outclassed as a defensive fairy. BTW I believe the nature that raises defense and lowers speed is relaxed.

Oh come on, M-Pidgeot is most certainly not the worst of the megas! 252 SpA Pidgeot Hurricane vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Slowbro: 154-183 (39 - 46.4%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery(and I'm assuming most will be invested in physical defense). Surely it can't be that bad. And with SR:252...

Though it would only last 5 turns... Still a good option despite this.

Some people like to use Mega Manectric as a mega on a rain team because of spammable thunder though. And I have Ampharos as my mega on my rain team.

HP grass, or Mow Rotom might see an increase in usage: A STAB that Swampert is 4x weak to, resistance to swampert's STAB(and immunity), and also has will-o-wisp.

How well would wash rotom counter Mega swampert? Edit: I mean, it's immune to ground, resists water, has will-o-wisp, and is overall bulky.
