Counter that Pokemon! (READ THE FREAKING FIRST POST)

R.F. said:
Mega Swampert would have been a little bit better, but I'm not particularly sure, how megas are handled here. Do you switch in the unevolved Pokemon first and let it mevo in the next turn, or can we just assume that the Pokemon is already mega evolved on the switch in?

We do it where the Pokemon is already mega evolved.

And for the Swampert counter:

Aurorus @ Choice Specs
Trait: Refrigerate
EVs: 4hp/252spa/252spe
Modest Nature (+Sp. Atk, -Atk)
- Freeze-Dry
- Nature Power
- Thunderbolt
- Dark Pulse

the lack of earthquake and toxic means ice dino can tank an hp fire (<10hko) and knock off (5hko with specs, will be 7hko later on) easily. it will lose its specs but nature power (which turns into tri attack) or freeze-dry are still clean kos, specs or not.
