Strategy Overview

Medicham is, in short, the most powerful Pokemon--aside from possibly Slaking. Especially if it runs a Choice Band, it will pummel you to hell and back. With the potential to be an absolute monster, Medicham should be feared by any self-respecting battler. However, Medicham will be mediocre if you can't predict well enough to switch him in safely or hit opponents super effectively.
