Mega Medicham

General overview of Mega Medicham

In Pokémon Legends: Z-A, Mega Medicham is a formidable fighter thanks to its Ability which doubles the power of its physical attacks. Its type remains identical to that of its base form: Fighting and Psychic. This type combination allows it to use powerful moves like Psycho Cut or Ice Punch to deal heavy damage to its opponents.

In the Pokédex, Mega Medicham is often described as a master of martial arts. Its extreme concentration allows it to unleash its full inner strength during a battle. This Mega form particularly highlights its raw power and its precision.

Base stats and characteristics

The Mega Evolution considerably improves Medicham's stats. Mega Medicham has an extremely high Attack, making it a very dangerous offensive Pokémon. Its base stats emphasize power rather than defense.

• HP: average

• Attack: very high

• Defense: decent

• Special Attack: low

• Special Defense: average

• Speed: good

Its Ability amplifies its strength even further, allowing Mega Medicham to reach an impressive damage output. At level 50 or level 100 in the main games, it can easily eliminate many opponents with a single well-placed attack.

Mega Medicham in strategic battles

In a strategic build, Mega Medicham is considered a very effective physical attacker. Its Fighting type allows it to threaten many popular Pokémon while its Psychic type gives it additional coverage against certain opponents.

A standard moveset includes moves like Psycho Cut for STAB Psychic coverage and Fighting type moves like Force Palm or High Jump Kick. Ice Punch is often used to hit Pokémon of the Flying or Ground type that might otherwise resist it.

On a balanced team, Mega Medicham is generally used as an offensive sweeper. It can come onto the field, benefit from its Mega Evolution and deal massive damage before the opponent can react.

Usage in Pokémon GO and raids

In Pokémon GO, Mega Medicham is available during special events or Mega Evolution raids. Players can obtain Mega Energy by defeating Mega Medicham in raids and then use that energy to activate the Mega Evolution of their own Medicham.

Once Mega Evolved, it provides an Attack bonus to Fighting and Psychic type Pokémon in raids. This makes it an interesting choice for strengthening a team during battles against certain bosses.

With a good Max CP level and good IVs, Mega Medicham can reach respectable power in battle. Players can improve its performance by using Candies, TMs to optimize its Fast Attacks and Charged Attacks, or by powering it up to level 40 or level 50.

Mega Medicham and the Pokémon TCG

Mega Medicham also appears in the Pokémon Trading Card Game as Mega Medicham EX. These cards often highlight its physical power and spectacular attacks.

Mega cards generally have a higher Energy cost but offer significant damage in return. Some Full Art or special versions are highly sought after by collectors.

In a Fighting or Psychic deck, a Mega Medicham card can be used as the main attacker. Its high power and significant damage output allow you to quickly put pressure on the opponent.
