Movimientos y sets competitivos de Mega Gardevoir

Mega Gardevoir’s excellent Psychic / Fairy typing and high base 165 Special Attack make it one of the best options for a Wonder Guard Shell Smash sweeper. Judgment and either Iron Plate or Spooky Plate allow this set to beat Imposter users, as well as Fairy-type or Psychic-type Wonder Guard users, respectively. Thanks to the evergreen popularity of Wonder Guard Xerneas, Iron Plate is usually preferred, but Spooky Plate does have additional utility outside of hitting Psychic-type Wonder Guard users—notably +2 Spooky Plate Judgment OHKOes Mega Mewtwo X, Mega Mewtwo Y, and Mega Latios, as well as standard Primal Groudon after Stealth Rock. The remaining moveslots are dedicated to coverage for breaking as many Wonder Guard cores and Mold Breaker switch-ins as possible and are, as a result, quite flexible and very team-dependent. Grass Knot and Freeze-Dry are powerful coverage options that, most notably, allow this set to beat the ever popular Wonder Guard Primal Kyogre. On Iron Plate sets, Grass Knot is usually preferred for the OHKO on Primal Groudon after Stealth Rock at +2. Freeze-Dry nails a broader range of threats, however, including OHKOing Wonder Guard Gyaradosite Gyarados and Mega Rayquaza. Moonblast is a powerful STAB move that is often Mega Gardevoir’s best option against non-Wonder Guard switch-ins and also OHKOes the somewhat common Wonder Guard Mega Sableye. It also OHKOes standard Giratina sets even at just +1. Secret Sword and Lava Plume smack Normal and Bug / Steel type Wonder Guards, respectively, while Earth Power is notable for hitting both Electric Wonder Guard users and netting a guaranteed KO against Primal Groudon at +2. Mix and match these (or other) coverage options according to your team’s needs and current metagame trends. A Modest nature is preferred to secure several key KOs such as Mega Mewtwo X and Mega Rayquaza, but a Timid nature is an option if outpacing Timid Xerneas is desired. Wonder Guard Shell Smash Mega Gardevoir fits well on both balance and offensive teams as a powerful wincon. Physical Mold Breakers, though valuable on nearly every team structure in ORAS Pure Hackmons, are especially important teammates for Mega Gardevoir, breaking through the Wonder Guard users Mega Gardevoir’s chosen coverage moves may not pierce. Choice Band Primal Groudon is especially noteworthy for its excellent offensive synergy with Mega Gardevoir, as well as its ability to obliterate opposing Wonder Guard users with its STAB V-create. Fast and powerful Mold Breaker users such as Mega Mewtwo Y and especially Mega Gengar can make it very difficult for Gardevoir to get a Shell Smash up, so teammates such as Yveltal, Mega Gyarados, Wonder Guard Meloetta, Arceus carrying Knock Off, and various -ate Speed users like Mega Rayquaza and Mega Abomasnow are appreciated. Many of these Pokemon are also good entry hazard setters, and Mega Gardevoir appreciates Stealth Rock support to turn many of its already favorable rolls, such as +2 Spooky Plate Judgment or Grass Knot into 240 HP Primal Groudon, into guaranteed KOs. Aromatherapy support from support Wonder Guard partners with complementary typing such as Primal Kyogre, Meloetta, Slaking, and Mega Scizor, among others, is also appreciated to prevent Toxic or Will-O-Wisp from putting a timer on Mega Gardevoir’s sweep. Defog and Wish support from these teammates can also offset any chip Mega Gardevoir might take throughout a game, making its job as a late-game cleaner and wincon more flexible.
