Kangaskhan

Behold what may be the biggest threat in Battle Spot Singles! Parental Bond lets Mega Kangaskhan rise to stardom, allowing her to attack twice per turn, effectively giving her a free 50% boost to her Attack and other bonuses such as the ability to blast through Focus Sashes and Substitutes! Mega Kangaskhan also has a superb stat spread that gives her not only great offensive presence but also good Speed and defenses that make OHKOing Mega Kangaskhan a difficult task. Even with a mediocre Normal typing, Mega Kangaskhan makes full use of it with her powerful STAB moves and only has a sole weakness to Fighting. What truly takes Mega Kangaskhan to the next level is her amazing movepool. Mega Kangaskhan's offensive movepool is extremely varied, giving her a tactic around almost all of her checks!

Mega Kangaskhan's only major flaw is that she is such a huge threat that almost every team has a battle plan against her. Teams will use things such as Rocky Helmet, Will-O-Wisp, and even specific Pokemon such as Porygon2 and bulky Serperior for the purpose of checking Mega Kangaskhan. While Mega Kangaskhan is incredibly difficult to directly check, she can certainly be worn down by a whole team. With so many teams being well prepared against Mega Kangaskhan, you may end up benching her from battles more often than you'd expect. Even with a metagame that attempts to be as hostile to Mega Kangaskhan as possible, however, she is still one of the most defining Pokemon of Battle Spot Singles, because any team that fails to prepare for Mega Kangaskhan is doomed to fail!
