Mega Manectric Trio Raid Guide

Objectively speaking, Mega Steelix is... not really great here. However, it is a Ground Type Mega Evolution, so it can boost the entire raid group to new heights while on the field.

If you intend to bring a Mega Evolution along for the ride, then this is arguably the Pokemon for the job. The problem here is that even the much-lauded Mega Gengar is pretty lackluster in this raid, with performance somewhere around the bottom of the "Good" counters in practice. 

Another neutrally-strong Mega Evolution, Mega Alakazam is a power-house Pokemon that turns out to be a bit lacking in this raid. 

Shadow Mamoswine is the top-DPS option for this raid, hitting very hard despite being the Ground Type with the least bulk on this list. This is one of the top priorities, to be sure.

While it doesn't quite have the DPS of Shadow Mamoswine, Landorus - Therian Forme has a stronger average DPS despite its Flying sub-type. It's definitely one of the best counters on this list, all-in-all.

Garchomp has stupid longevity thanks to its virtually unprecedented 3x resistance to Electric Type moves, and it has high DPS to boot. This is definitely one of the best counters for this raid!

Not quite as good as Garchomp, but close!

Groudon is a bit of a tank, sporting high bulk and good damage output. However, it's another case of "Garchomp, but worse".

Everyone's favorite mole-Pokemon with a proper name that doesn't begin with a "D" is here, and it's a bit of a double-edged sword. It has the standard-fare double resistance to Electric Type attacks and a resistance to Psychic Fangs, but it's also weak to Fire Type moves, so its utility will tend to be a bit iffier.

As a testament to just how strong Psychic Types are and just how lackluster Ground is, Shadow Mewtwo comes in with one of the higher DPS totals in the game. It's really frail, but it's still viable off-type, which says a lot.

Landorus-Therian Forme but a bit worse.

Garchomp but a bit worse.

Shadow Swampert has the advantage of resisting Mega Manectric's Fire Type moves, making it potentially valuable for this raid.

While often overlooked, Golurk actually has a decent presence as a Ground Type attacker, and can make some waves in this raid.

Yes, we're this desperate for Ground Types.

Double-resisting Psychic Fangs is about the only note-worthy achievement here.

The true classic; hard to go wrong with good, old Mamoswine.

Another true classic, the non-Shadow Swampert is a decent option here as well.
