The Water/Dark-type Mega Gyarados boasts good stats and can be used as a decent Water, Dark, and even a Dragon type attacker courtesy of its diverse moveset. However, do note that it doesn't excel in any of these departments. 😕
It's not a bad Pokémon per se, just widely outclassed in both its typings and obviously, doesn't compare to the real dragons out there. 😶🌫️
⚔️ Raids
The sheer power levels of Primal Kyogre and Mega Tyranitar leave Mega Gyarados out of the Mega Evolution slot in teams. 😬
That's not all, as even non-Mega Hydro Cannon users like Greninja and Primarina surpass Mega Gyarados in damage output. 🫣
As a Dark type again, non-Megas like Hydreigon, Darkrai, and even Zoroark offer higher DPS.
🛡️ Gyms
Mega Evolutions can't be put in gyms.
💥 The best moves for Mega Gyarados in PvE are Waterfall and Hydro Pump (Water type) or Bite and Crunch (Dark type).
