I started using Mega Aggron and love it. I bred a 6IV one (was supposed to be 5IV but Sp Atk randomly got 31 too, lol) and had someone hatch it shiny for me. I invested EVs in HP, Sp Def and Def, and he's a tank. So far he hasn't gotten knocked out in Battle Maison when my other Megas had a hard time staying alive in the first round (the opponents tend to all attack the Mega Pokemon at once to get rid of it for some reason). Earthquakes and Close Combats don't do shit to this guy. Pure Steel plus Filter? Heavy Slam? Hell yes.
I love Mega Houndoom's design but I just wish he had a better ability due to the weather nerf.
Used both Mega Charizards. I find Y more useful on my team, plus I like its design better. I dunno, I just find X's model to be bad, and not a fan of the flowery wings and shoulder teeth.
Mega Gengar isn't as good as I thought, but Gengar in general is pretty frail. Liking Mega Lucario.
I'll have to try Mega Kangaskhan after I breed some.
I used to use Mega Aggron but I found his damage output lacking and his lack of reliable recovery was off putting. Mine was Sassy 252 HP/252 Sp Def/4 Def with Heavy Slam/Earthquake/Stealth Rock/Dragon Tail. Do you use Adamant or something?
No I use Impish. His damage output is low, I agree, but his strong defense has saved my ass many times, when my other Megas wound up dying in the first round (Lucario, Charizard, Gengar, despite having perfect IVs) and Heavy Slam is pretty reliable as long as the opponents aren't heavy. This is Super Triple battles though, which is my favorite to play, and he kind of carries my whole team during that since my other Pokemon are usually glass cannons. In Super Triple I find my Megas tend to get targeted by all the opponent's Pokemon, my other Megas will die quickly but Mega Aggron brushes attacks off well.
I see, I play Singles in the Maison and on Wi-Fi both. I wish I could tolerate using him more as he's my favorite visually, but Abomasnow's wallbreaking is just so delicious. Maybe I'll try running Aggron again if I start playing triples, I imagine EQ's spread damage is nice,
