NatDex Slam Winner
Venusaur-Mega @ Venusaurite
Ability: Overgrow
EVs: 252 HP / 152 SpA / 104 Spe
Modest Nature
- Sludge Bomb
- Earth Power
- Knock Off / Giga Drain
- Synthesis

With Thick Fat leaving it with only two weaknesses and phenomenal stats across the board, Mega Venusaur has blossomed into a powerful force in National Dex UU! Sludge Bomb and Earth Power threaten many of the best Pokemon in the tier, such as Aegislash, Clefable, Excadrill, and Iron Moth, and foes like Mega Latias and Hydreigon can be crippled if poisoned by Sludge Bomb. Knock Off is used to punish Celesteela by removing its Leftovers, as it would wall Mega Venusaur otherwise. However, Giga Drain can threaten foes such as Ting-Lu and Greninja and beat Mega Tyranitar, which would otherwise annoy Mega Venusaur by cutting into Synthesis recovery with Sand Stream. 104 Speed EVs allow Mega Venusaur to outrun Tyranitar and Adamant Aegislash. While it has notable weaknesses to Psychic- and Flying-types, such as Alakazam and Mega Aerodactyl, Mega Venusaur is often seen alongside partners such as Ting-Lu and Celesteela that can cover them. In return, it can take on threats like Tapu Fini, Keldeo, and Zeraora. It can also struggle to break through Celesteela and Skarmory, so options that threaten them, such as Rotom-W and Victini, are notable. Rotom-W and Victini also pivot Mega Venusaur in against their checks, like Hydrapple and Quagsire.

With Thick Fat leaving it with only two weaknesses and phenomenal stats across the board, Mega Venusaur is one of the premier mixed walls and What kind of threat? I never really felt it was a "threat" of the offensive kind, I feel it'd be more accurate to say it's a tank threats in National Dex UU. Mention how it can just 1v1 so much of the tier Sludge Bomb and Earth Power allow Mega Venusaur to threaten many of the best Pokemon in the tier, such as Aegislash, Clefable, Excadrill, and Iron Moth. Mention that Sludge Bomb can poison checks like Mega Latias Knock Off is generally used to punish Celesteela by removing its Leftovers, as it would completely wall Mega Venusaur otherwise. However, Giga Drain can be used to more immediately threaten options such as Ting Lu and Greninja. It also notably allows Mega Venusaur to beat Mega Tyranitar, which would otherwise annoy it by cutting into Synthesis recovery with Sand Stream. Mention what its EV spread does Mega Venusaur is an incredible option for most teams with an available Mega slot. While it has notable weaknesses to Psychic- and Flying types, such as Alakazam and Mega Aerodactyl, Mega Venusaur is often seen alongside partners such as Ting Lu and Celesteela, which can cover these weaknesses. In return, Mega Venusaur can take on threats like Tapu Fini, Keldeo, and Zeraora, which often give these Pokemon trouble. Mega Venusaur can also struggle to break through Celesteela and Skarmory, so options that can threaten them, such as Rotom-W and Victini, are notable, as well as providing pivot support to bring Mega Venusaur in against their checks, like Hydrapple and Quagsire.
