Voting for thecrystalonix just because Mega Bro checks both mons really well. It's a shame Blaziken gets Knock Off and Thunder Punch; my vote would've went straight to edavis707 if it didn't.
I just cry and lose.What Pokemon do you use to deal with this core?
Mega Beedrill's Drill Run (my set) doesn't even OHKO 4 HP Mega Gengar.this one was really hard this week, I visited this thread a few times to try and come up with a reliable one-mon counter to these guys and just couldn't. This is a really strong core, no wonder we lose to it in our streams lol. Any defensive answer to Azu gets trapped and killed by Mega Gengar with either Destiny Bond or Perish Song, which is why didn't nominate anything like Mega Venusaur, and anything that fast enough to get rid of Mega Gengar before it Destiny Bonds you needs to be able to survive a +6 Aqua Jet from Azu (to be considered a true), which is why I didn't nom Mega Beedrill.
In the end I was going to nom a Choice Scarf Rotom-W set but never got around to it.
Rotom-W @ Choice Scarf
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 36 Def / 252 SpA / 220 Spe
Modest Nature
- Thunderbolt / Volt Switch
- Hydro Pump
- Hidden Power Ice
- Trick / Volt Switch
Enough speed to get the jump on Mega Gengar, put the spare EVs in Def so that Azumarill can't 2HKO you with a Play Rough + Aqua Jet combo (well it does if it gets a max roll on both attacks or a crit on either). Thunderbolt can 2HKO both, but you won't be sweeping this core with Rotom, as after you've killed off one then you're too weakened to beat the other bu you'll at least do a chunk with a Thunderbolt before you die.
I've gotta vote for what's there though, tbh I don't really like any of them except for maybe Greninja since it can at least force Azumarill out and then kill Gengar before it evolves, so I'll vote for aniravjain. I think regular Thundurus is better than Therian since you can go for a clutch t wave before you go down if you've just killed off Azu and too weak to beat Mega Gengar. Raikou is cool but since it can't OHKO Mega Gengar it'll just get 2HKOed by that or easily revenged by Azumarill. I was pretty close to voting for Ditto, it's actually probably better with a Focus Sash though..
