Build Notes

Mega Sceptile transforms into a Lightning Rod sweeper that absorbs all Electric-type moves and gains a Special Attack boost each time Rotom-Heat fires Discharge. Timid nature with max Special Attack and max Speed lets it outspeed most of the format and threaten targets like Garchomp and Basculegion with Grass Knot, Mega Gengar and opposing Dragon types with Dragon Pulse, and Steel types like King's Gambit and Mawile at +1 via Earth Power. Detect provides a safe turn to absorb pressure while waiting for a Lightning Rod boost.
