A - Mega Gengar
With one of the best Speed stats out of all the competitive Pokemon, and tied with Tapu Koko's speed stat, Gengar is easily able to revenge kill fragile and weakened foes, as well as hard checking, arguably, the most dangerous Mon in this tournament, Marshadow. And with it's amazing Special Attack along with its Speed, it can take the role as Wallbreaker, as well.
Gengar @Gengarite
Ability: Levitate
EVs: 4 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Destiny Bond
- Sludge Wave / Sludge Bomb
- Shadow Ball / Focus Blast
- Taunt
Gengarite is the obvious choice of item for it. Taunting setup sweepers and Stealth Rock users to relieve your other Mon, Gengar can also kamikaze troubling Pokemon through utility Taunt and Destiny Bond by trapping it with Shadow Tag--after revenge killing its initial target. Sludge Bomb/Wave is powerful stab that counters the influx of the Tapus and Fairy types(albeit Magearna). Shadow Ball is a solid, spammable stab that you can use against trapped foes, and Focus Blast can work well against Darkrai counters and bulky steel types.
