That moment when you realize random people know more about your meta than you do.
Anyway, I'd like to talk about Mega-Alakazam

Timid Nature
- Psychic
- Focus Blast
- Substitute
- Magic Coat
We never considered Mega Zam before the creation of this meta, because we were looking at OU pokes, and he is BL. However, as seen in the replay, he can easily turn into an almost unstoppable sweeping force after mega evolving. 150 base speed and 175 base special attack is a perfect combo for Brackets, getting him to +2 priority with a speedy nature and outspeeding almost everything within that bracket. Honestly without speed boosts or Prankster/Gale Wings I don't see this thing being outpaced by anything useful. Psychic/Fighting is just okay coverage for spamming with, but Fighting is definitely necessary with things like Mega Jawsus and Mega Absol running around. I put Magic Coat on as a gimmick to surprise the inevitable Prankster Whimiscott sent out to ruin you, and it worked quite handily in the first battle. Sub is just a preference of mine. I personally think this poke is very strong, and though I imagine it has many counters, it possesses the potential to sweep unprepared teams.
We haven't really messed around with abusing Speed Boost yet, but I plan to soon.
And I really want a new signature ;~;
