This thing probably won’t learn moonblast because of the solarbeam lore.Ideally what ability can salvage it in competitive format cause as it stands anything decently offensive 2hkos it even without stab and it dies easily to any poison move.
>>58492295From what people were testing mega maganium is actually good already.Just dragon tail the switch ins.
>>58492333>switches in a fairyUnfortunately not fullproof.
Flower Veil, best I can offer.
>>58492295solid: triage/ chlorophyll/ fairy aura/ solar powerinteresting but probably too weak: seed sower/ pixilateplease gf no: flower veil/ flower gift/ sweet veil
>>58492391Flower gift would be coolWhats up with the flower veil hate tho? Isn’t intimidate and parting shot super common
>anything decently offensive 2hkos it even without stabYou should actually check its stats.Also giga drain.
>>58492654This, what the fuck are you talking about OP
>Budew used Poison Sting
>>58492295The issue is justifying Meganium for the mega slot. They can give it any busted Ability for real, it won't change the fact that it uses up the mega slot. If it happens to be great or annoying, every offensive mon would just start running Poison moves for coverage while you waste your mega slot on potentially winning match ups with the Dragon immunity and the resistances to some of the most popular types.
>>58492909Mega Dimension solves this problem
>>58492909>If it happens to be great or annoying, every offensive mon would just start running Poison moves for coverageThis would mean that Mega Meganium succeeded in being a threat.
>>58492654Anything coming from base 130 attack/sp atk easily 2hkos it without stab if using max evs and a choice band.So yeah, its not that bulky and its gonna be forced switched out on bad matchups.
>>58492391Flower gift would make it pretty cool in doubles. People tend to forget the boost extends to your allies as well.>>58492295Drought would be a good ability, giving it access to a fire move (Weather ball) on top of Earth Power it gained in ZA.It helps that it can threaten Politoed (seldom used, admittedly) and the sand streamers.
>>58493027Forgot to mention using super effective moves and no not poison, poison is an easy ohko in that base attack range.If you run stab super effective then its just dead even without choice band or setup. It has a lot of threats, megas included.
>>58493007Eh, more like brought unexpected annoyance or expected annoyance and after 5 minutes of glory, they have prepared against it. If Dazzling Gleam is the best it gets for a Fairy move, then no Ability will save it. Not even Triage.
>ITT: anons desperately whiteroom ways that Meganium will die as quickly as possibleYou know you can just do this with any mon ever born right
>>58493080Skarmory, Corviknight, Scizor, G-Weezing, Moltres shits on it. It has Earth Power for now, but it's not guaranteed to stay. If Champions take it away, then even Fire types could potentially safely switch in and nuke it. Unless a hipster SD set with EQ comes that already takes up 2 moves for the way weaker offensive stat.
>>58493120Sorry I didn’t realize Dondozo walls also get 2hko’d easily by several options its weak to
252 SpA Glimmora Sludge Wave vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Meganium-Mega: 408-484 (112 - 132.9%) -- guaranteed OHKO>weedle used poison sting
>>58493208Poison is one of the easiest types to counter, literally just switch to any steel type.Also a reminder that Mega Meganium has perfect type synergy with Heatran, already a very popular choice
I think Solar Power would be perfect, as Earth Power and Sun-boosted Weather Ball would be near flawless coverage + you can Giga Drain lost HP as well
>>58493230>just switch outYou mean what you would do with literally any pokemon when a threat comes in?
>>58492295From the description its ability could be chlorophyll or solar power
>>58493258Why yes, that is exactly what I mean.
