[SET COMMENTS]
Mega Charizard X is a fearsome sweeper thanks to its good stats and strong ability in Tough Claws. It’s good into foes like Ferrothorn and Corviknight and can muscle through even sturdy targets hit for neutral damage such as Ting-Lu and Rotom-W. It also has a niche as a physical attacker that’s immune to burn from Flame Body and Will-O-Wisp users such as Moltres and Rotom-W, allowing it to circumvent a good way to beat physical attackers. Earthquake allows it to hit Pokemon resistant to Flare Blitz like Heatran, Garganacl, and Toxapex. Dragon Claw is an option on teams that do not need Mega Charizard X’s defensive utility as much, as it allows Charizard to hit Dragonite, Rotom-W, and Alomomola. Roost is another option that can be used to provide Mega Charizard X with longevity throughout a battle, helping it heal from Flare Blitz recoil and entry hazard damage and allowing it to set up on Pokemon like Tapu Koko, Volcarona, and Clefable as well as threaten to wallbreak multiple times in a game. Ogerpon-W appreciates Mega Charizard X’s ability to pressure its checks like Ferrothorn and Dragonite and can wear down checks to Mega Charizard X like Alomomola and Toxapex. Pokemon like Hawlucha and Iron Boulder are good partners for Mega Charizard X, as they can chip down shared checks such as Landorus-T and Alomomola. Mega Charizard X hates taking damage from Stealth Rock, so Taunt leads like Grimmsnarl, Landorus-T, and Tapu Koko are appreciated. Grimmsnarl and Tapu Koko also set up dual screens, allowing Mega Charizard X to offset its mediocre bulk and set up much easier.
