Strategy Overview

Mega Venusaur has an incredible defensive ability in Thick Fat, which makes it only weak to Flying- and Psychic-type attacks. Its movepool and stats make it a tank that is very difficult to take down and a fine check to the many Fairy-types that roam around. However, it's rather slow and easily pressured by offensive teams, and it has rather poor coverage for an offensive Pokemon.

Below are some sample sets. These sets are likely to be standard, but they will be expanded upon and updated as the metagame progresses.
