May. 8, 2024Mega Alakazam Strengths
Unsurprisingly, Mega Alakazam is quite robust against many Pokemon types. However, its main strengths are its effectiveness and resistance againstfightingandpsychic-typePokemon. So, Pokemon like Machamp, Lucario, and many others will have a tough time dealing any damage to Mega Alakazam. Hence, avoid building any team with either of these two Pokemon types.
Thankfully, this pesky Pokemon also has some weaknesses. It primarily belongs to the Psychic element type, so most attacks use confusion as the focal point. Fortunately, Mega Alakazam isweak against Bug, Dark, and Ghost Pokemon. So, popular Pokemon like Gengar, Beedrill, etc are a good idea to bring along with you to the fight if you don’t have the recommended Pokemon below!
The best course of action here is to bring over the shadow variant ofMewtoand the mega variants of Tyranitar and Gengar. These three Pokemon are the best counters to a Mega Alakazam and will be a formidable opponent against him.
If you don’t have an Alakazam in your Pokedex, you’ll get a bonus battle where you catch one. Once you have an Alakazam in your inventory, you’ll get rewarded with Mega Energy. Once you collect200 Mega Energy, use the item and evolve your Alakazam to a Mega Alakazam.
This month, shiny Mega Alakazam is available in the rotation as part of the Mega Raids. The spawn rate is low, and adding them to your party is even tougher than one might expect. However, they will spawn with better rates during the Mega Raid event.
Mega Alakazam is already the ultimate form of the Pokemon. As such, it has no further evolution.
