Strategy Overview

Mega Camerupt is a viable Trick Room Pokemon with base 20 Speed after Mega Evolving, which allows it to outspeed and KO Amoonguss, a Pokemon that Trick Room teams struggle with. It has bulky 70 / 100 / 105 defenses and its base 145 Special Attack and ability Sheer Force let it hit hard. However, Mega Camerupt is not viable outside Trick Room and requires support from other Pokemon on its team. It's also hard to send out without taking prior damage or letting its teammate faint.
