[SET COMMENTS]
Mega Garchomp is a strong late-game sweeper, bursting through foes with its strong boosted Glaive Rush and Headlong Rush. Shift Gear allows Mega Garchomp to outspeed every Pokemon in the tier, including most +1 foes, while Tidy Up clears entry hazards. Jungle Healing allows Mega Garchomp to set up in the face of Mortal Spin users like Mega Steelix, helps deal with burns from Burning Bulwark, and limits the recovery any Imposter users can steal. 164 Defense EVs ensure Eviolite Imposter Chansey is OHKOed by +1 Glaive Rush. Mega Garchomp can never break through Fur Coat Pokemon like Arceus-Fairy, Mega Audino, Mega Slowbro, and Celesteela by itself, so teammates like Mega Lucario and Ultra Necrozma can help by dealing with these checks. Mega Garchomp enjoys teammates that can block or reduce Strength Sap's healing like Blissey or Mega Slowbro. Finally, Mega Garchomp appreciates being slowly pivoted onto the field by Pokemon such as Mega Swampert, Mega Audino, and Mega Steelix to provide it with as many opportunities to set up as possible. To Imposter-proof Mega Garchomp, you can use Fur Coat Arceus-Fairy, Arceus-Ghost, or Mega Slowbro.
