If you don't like Focus Blast, then go mixed with HP Fire and Earthquake. That combo hits all of those things as hard/harder than Focus Blast and is 100% accurate.Just a super quick thing about mega sceptile: I find that its stabs are kinda unreliable; i more often find myself clicking focus blast to hit the omnipotent ferro/tran/sciz/klefki/skarm/you get the idea mroe than my stabs, and it would be nice if I could actually click my stab moves every once in a while cuz they're not too bad.
Well speaking of that, dpulse is kinda weak topping off at 85 bp and you have to choose between the inconsistent leaf storm or the weak giga drain for grass stab (i guess u cud go energy ball but giga's healing is more useful). So even if you could use your goddam stabs they're pretty piss weak as is.
Basically its overreliant on its coverage moves, which is the same reason I found myself not liking specs dragalge too much.
Really, Sceptile is not supposed to wall break or OHKO everything. It's a late game cleaner/revenge killer and it hits just hard enough to effectively fill that role. Grass/Dragon STAB is incredibly useful in that it threatens some of the best Pokemon in the tier. Lati@s, Greninja, Azumarill, Rotom, Diancie, Slowbro and Keldo are all terrified of this thing.
