Strategy Overview
Mega Manectric faces competition from Raikou and Thundurus, both of which do not take up a Mega slot. Ground-types, such as Landorus-T, have also strained the viability of Mega Manectric. Mega Manectric also has a very shallow movepool and a very predictable moveset. However, despite having a shallow movepool, Mega Manectric has surprisingly good coverage options. Mega Manectric retains one of the highest Speed stats in the metagame, tied with only Mega Lopunny, which allows it to outspeed all of the unboosted metagame. Having Intimidate and Volt Switch allows Mega Manectric to act as a pivot and Intimidate shuffler.
