Nat Dex [NatDex] Mega Latias [QC 1/1][GP 1/1]

[Jho]

Latias-Mega (F) @ Latiasite
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Psyshock
- Aura Sphere
- Calm Mind
- Roost

Mega Latias cements itself as one of National Dex's most consistent wincons thanks to its ability to break through many common Pokemon such as Toxapex, Blissey, and Gliscor. On top of this, its tremendous bulk affords it many opportunities to set up. Aura Sphere allows it to hit Pokemon such as both Mega and non- Mega Tyranitar as well as Weavile more consistently, making it much more difficult to Pursuit trap while also letting it hit Pokemon such as Heatran and Excadrill all in one moveslot. Psyshock is used for its ability to easily break through Blissey, deal significant damage to Calm Mind Clefable, and break through Haze Toxapex. Good teammates include Pokemon that can take advantage of its ability to heavily dent Tyranitar such as Dragon Dance Dragapult. Mega Latias also greatly appreciates Spikes support from Pokemon such as Ferrothorn and Ash-Greninja, as Spikes can easily wear down Pokemon such as Tyranitar and Heatran into range of Aura Sphere. It is also important to pair it with counterplay to Dragon Dance Dragapult such as Tyranitar, physically defensive Clefable, and Melmetal, as it can otherwise set up on Mega Latias or threaten to OHKO it with Never-Ending Nightmare.

Mega Latias cements itself as one of National Dex's most consistent win conditions thanks to its ability to break through many common Pokemon in the metagame such as Toxapex, Blissey, and Gliscor. On top of this, it's tremendous bulk affords it many opportunities to set up. It's newfound access to Aura Sphere allows it to more consistently hit Pokemon such as both Mega and non-mega Tyranitar, as well as Weavile, making it much more difficult to Pursuit trap while also letting it hit Pokemon such as Heatran and Excadrill. Make sure to explicitly state that this is all in the same moveslot, which is a really big deal. Psyshock is used over other options due to its ability to easily break through Blissey, on top of allowing Mega Latias to deal significant damage to Calm Mind Clefable and break through Haze Toxapex, something you cannot do with Stored Power. Good teammates for Mega Latias include Pokemon that can take advantage of its ability to heavily dent Tyranitar, such as Dragon Dance Dragapult, as well as Pokemon that can absorb crippling status effects like Toxic and Thunder Wave. Clefable and Gliscor are good examples of teammates for this. This is cool but not one of the most important things to talk about with Mega Latias in my opinion. I think Spikes are far more important than this. It is also important for Mega Latias to be paired with counterplay to opposing Dragon Dance Dragapult, as it can otherwise set-up on it or threaten to OHKO it with Never-Ending-Nighmare. Dragapult is really hard to check, but it's not like checks and counters simply don't exist. Mention some.

Good job, 1/1.

Add (AC=Add comma, AH=Add hyphen)

I had to cut some stuff down due to character limit (it was over 1200).
GP 1/1 once implemented!
