* Mega Lucario is a dangerous wallbreaker on Sticky Web teams thanks to its near unresisted STAB combination and its great 145 Attack stat that is compounded further by Swords Dance and its Adaptability ability.
* Close Combat is Mega Lucario's strongest STAB attack, achieving incredible feats when boosted, such as OHKOing Yveltal and having a good chance to OHKO both Zygarde-C and Primal Groudon after Stealth Rock.
* Meteor Mash is Mega Lucario's most reliable Steel-type attack which compliments Close Combat beautifully, allowing Mega Lucario to hit Fairy- and Ghost-types hard, such as Arceus-Fairy and Marshadow that would otherwise resist or be immune to Close Combat, respectively. It also allows for a 20% chance for Mega Lucario to get a +1 Attack boost, which can potentially make Mega Lucario even stronger. Stone Edge allows Mega Lucario to OHKO Ho-Oh, a Pokemon that would otherwise resist both of Mega Lucario's STAB attacks.
* Inner Focus is Mega Lucario's best ability to run prior to Mega Evolution, allowing it to block Intimidate from Landorus-T and Mega Salamence prior to Mega Evolving. It also allows Mega Lucario to avoid the 2HKO from Yveltal's Foul Play due to it not getting an Attack boost when hit by Dark-type Attacks
* A Jolly nature is used to allow Mega Lucario to maximize its speed, letting it outspeed Mega Latios and Timid Yveltal. Should these Pokemon be covered, an Adamant nature can be used to allow Mega Lucario to hit as hard as possible, letting it cleanly OHKO Zygarde-C pre-transformation and 2HKO Giratina-O with Close Combat and Meteor Mash after a Swords Dance boost, respectively.
* 1-2 bullets on general usage tips
* 1-2 bullets for teammates (if applicable)
