Alright, so I have been looking at all the Mega Evolutions and their abilities lately, and I would like to discuss how they can be used and whether it can be a positive or negative effect on a team.
What I would like to first discuss (Since it's been beating down on me lately) is Mega Houndoom.
It has the following base stats :
HP - 75
Attack - 90
Defense - 90
Special Attack - 140
Special Defense - 90
Speed - 115
It has the ability Solar Power.
Now, for a Mega Evolution it's Special Attack is pretty decent and its Speed is pretty nice. Now, there are many Pokemon that you could use and would be better than this at a first glance. However, it has the ability Solar Power.
If you don't know what Solar Power is, it increases the Pokemon's SA by 1.5x during Sunshine. Now, this gives it a 210 Base (Hypothetically) , and it also increases the power of it's fire type moves, giving it a nice output. However, it decreases a the given Pokemon's HP every turn.
Now, what I would like to discuss is that is this a good Pokemon to use, how would you use it, what move set could you set up, and potential EV Spreads + held items.
Discuss.
