Medicham @ Medichamite
Ability: Telepathy
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Fake Out
- High Jump Kick
- Ice Punch
- Zen Headbutt
Mega Medicham uses its Pure Power to serve as a premier breaker in the OverUsed metagame. This set centers around High Jump Kick, which does massive damage to anything that does not resist it, while common switch-ins like Landorus-T and Tornadus-T are punished by Ice Punch. Zen Headbutt completes the STAB combination, allowing Mega Medicham to pressure common defensive Pokemon that resist High Jump Kick like Clefable and Toxapex. Fake Out provides a method of safely obtaining chip damage and can help revenge kill frailer foes like Greninja and Mega Alakazam after some prior damage. While Mega Medicham is an offensive behemoth, it is rather frail, making teammates that can utilize U-turn and Volt Switch such as Landorus-T and Rotom-W beneficial. Pokemon that can use Spikes, like Ash-Greninja and Ferrothorn, are also appreciated, as they help wear down opposing teams, making the list of Pokemon capable of switching in versus Mega Medicham's big hits even shorter.
