Strategy Overview

Once the biggest threat of Battle Spot Singles last generation, Mega Kangaskhan has seen quite a downgrade due to Parental Bond only having a 25% damage bonus. Don't be fooled though, it's still a powerful sweeper that's bulky, has a good movepool, and has a good amount of power once it boosts its Attack. However, it's easier to wall than last gen, and Mega Kangaskhan still has serious problems with Double-Edge, Rocky Helmet, Rough Skin, and Iron Barbs chipping away at its health.
