+Dark/Ghost is a great typing defensively as it's only weak to Fairy-type moves, while being immune to Fighting- and Normal-types.
+Great ability in Prankster pre-evo which gives it one turn priority upon mega evolving
+Another great ability in Magic Bounce when Mega evolved which lets it bounce all incoming status moves.
+Good defense and Spdf stats while mega evolved.
+Access to a plethora of good moves that allow it to support itself defensively, mainly Metal Burst, Foul Play, Recover, Will-O-Wisp, Calm Mind
-Fairy-types are abundant in the metagame which makes it suffer

[SET COMMENTS]
Set Description
========
-Foul Play is one of the best move Mega Sableye can run to damage opposing physical offensive Pokemon, and stop set up moves.
-Will-O-Wisp is used to cripple opposing physical offensive Pokemon such as Mega Tyranitar, Kyurem-Black, Dragonite, Mega Gyarados and more, which when paired with Foul Play can deal a lot of damage per turn.
-Metal Burst is mostly used against specially offensive Pokemon as Mega Sableye is able to sponge a hit and OHKO back with Metal burst, in that way it can beat Greninja, Non-Dazzling Gleam Meloetta, Genesect, Latios, and more.
-Recover gives Mega Sableye longevity as it able to recover a good portion of its health giving it a sure win against Pokemon that cannot 2HKO it effectively.
