Build Notes

Mega Sceptile is the primary sweeper, leveraging its Lightning Rod ability to absorb Discharge from Choice Scarf Rotom-Heat and gain a +1 Special Attack boost before attacking. Timid nature with maximum Speed and Special Attack investment lets it outspeed nearly everything in the format including Choice Scarf Basculegion-M and Dragapult. Earth Power is the key new addition in Pokemon Champions, patching the steel-type weakness that held Mega Sceptile back in previous formats. Energy Ball and Dragon Pulse round out coverage, while Protect lets it safely receive the Lightning Rod boost mid-turn.
