Mega Pidgeot Trio Raid Guide

Mega Diancie is one of the best options for this raid, without a doubt. It sports outstanding DPS and great TDO backed up by its resistance to Mega Pidgeot's Flying Type attacks. However, it also needs to be careful of Steel Wing due to a crippling double-weakness to Steel Type moves, meaning there's a 50/50 chance that its performance will be significantly hampered. 

• Strengths: Air Slash, Aerial Ace, Brave Bird, Hurricane, Feather Dance
• Weaknesses: Steel Wing (2x)

The top Electric Type Mega Evolution, Mega Manectric is the go-to for Electric-heavy teams. It's got strong performance that's backed up by comprehensive strengths, making it a universally useful pick against Mega Pidgeot.

• Strengths: Air Slash, Steel Wing, Aerial Ace, Brave Bird, Hurricane, Feather Dance
• Weaknesses: None

The premier TDO Mega Evolution, Mega Tyranitar has some serious lasting power and solid DPS to back it up. And while it doesn't appreciate facing Steel Wing, its lesser weakness to it makes it still manageable regardless of the situation.

• Strengths: Air Slash, Aerial Ace, Brave Bird, Hurricane, Feather Dance
• Weaknesses: Steel Wing

While it can't quite compare with Mega Diancie and Mega Tyranitar, Mega Aerodactyl makes a solid backup Rock Type Mega Evolution. I

• Strengths: Air Slash, Aerial Ace, Brave Bird, Hurricane, Feather Dance
• Weaknesses: Steel Wing

The backup Electric Type Mega Evolution, Mega Ampharos is still a decent option that's worthy of consideration if Mega Manectric isn't available for one reason or another.

• Strengths: Air Slash, Steel Wing, Aerial Ace, Brave Bird, Hurricane, Feather Dance
• Weaknesses: None

If you're going for Ice Types, then Mega Glalie is your Mega. It's behind the majority of the competition, but it's still okay.

• Strengths: None
• Weaknesses: Steel Wing

While Mega Rayquaza doesn't have any useful type-boosting effects in this raid, it's still a neutral damage bruiser that can put in good work if you lack other options.

• Strengths: None
• Weaknesses: None

Mega Gardevoir has an Electric Type Fast Move and an Ice Type Charged Move, meaning it can definitely work in an odd way despite lacking STAB on these moves and providing no worthwhile type-boosts.

• Strengths: None
• Weaknesses: Steel Wing

The premier DPS option for this raid, Shadow Ramparados hits like an absolute truck, and is one of the main reasons that bringing a Rock Type Mega Evolution is generally the top choice. This thing doesn't care too much about most of what Mega Pidgeot can do, but it doesn't like facing down Steel Wing.

• Strengths: None
• Weaknesses: Steel Wing

Shadow Electivire still stands as a top choice for raw Electrical damage, and it's a very safe pick due to its comprehensive set of resistances. 

• Strengths: Air Slash, Steel Wing, Aerial Ace, Brave Bird, Hurricane, Feather Dance
• Weaknesses: None

Shadow Mamoswine doesn't have an exceptional defensive profile here, as it has no resistances and a weakness to Steel Wing. Still, it's the top Ice Type counter, so it has its utility.

• Strengths: None
• Weaknesses: Steel Wing

One of the best Ultra Beasts out there, Xurkitree is comparable to Shadow Electivire despite its lack of Shadow boost and worse Charged Move option. That's just how strong it is.

• Strengths: Air Slash, Steel Wing, Aerial Ace, Brave Bird, Hurricane, Feather Dance
• Weaknesses: None

Defensive behemoth with a wrecking ball of a Charged Move, Shadow Rhyperior puts in exceptional work... though it doesn't care for Steel Wing.

• Strengths: Air Slash, Steel Wing, Aerial Ace, Brave Bird, Hurricane, Feather Dance
• Weaknesses: Steel Wing

Take Shadow Electivire and trade a little DPS for a little TDO, and you've got Shadow Raikou.

• Strengths: Air Slash, Steel Wing, Aerial Ace, Brave Bird, Hurricane, Feather Dance
• Weaknesses: None

Shadow Magnezone can't quite reach the DPS numbers of the above counters, but it more than makes up for that fact with exceptional TDO. While its natural bulk isn't exceptional, its stellar typing gives it a double-resistance to literally everything that Mega Pidgeot can throw at it, which helps out a lot.
