Mega Medicham PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

⚔️ Raids

Mega Medicham is a Fighting and Psychic-type Mega Pokémon with not a lot of uses in raids. Let’s get right into why.

👁️ Psychic type and 🥊 Fighting type

Mega Medicham is the definition of okay stats for a Mega Pokémon. It has respectable attack and defense, but neither is exceptional. Mix that in with a sub-par attack pool, and Mega Medicham leaves a lot to be desired.

⭐ Perks

You could argue that its stats make it a good support Pokémon for mega boosting. While this is true, I think there are some things worth taking into consideration. Firstly, its type combination does not give it a whole host of resistances. Second, there aren’t that many raid Pokémon where having a boost to both Psychic and Fighting types would be beneficial. Thirdly, overall, wouldn’t it be better to invest in Mega Pokémon of both respective types that can either survive longer or do more damage?
