Defensive Calculations
Well seeing how everyone knows that this pokemon isn't that defensive it can mainly get one shot by every thing
Summary
Mega Sharpedo is one of those megas that is under looked in VGC. The reason is basically because of how frail it is. I would most likely pair Mega Sharpedo with either a Follow Me user such as Cleffairy or Togekiss, or even pair it with an Amoongus with Rage Powder to redirect all the attacks away from Sharpedo so it can run havoc on your opponents team. As for move choices, I chose Crunch to deal with the Mega Metagross's out there plus its a great STAB move that will get the Strong Jaw boost. Waterfall, even though it won't get the Strong Jaw boost it is a great STAB move. With Ice Fang to round out the moves to deal with pesky dragon types like Mega Mence and Lando Ts. In conclusion, Mega Sharpedo though being really frail can fair well with the right team, with the Stong Jaw ability and massive Speed and Attack, Mega Sharpedo has really good potential in VGC.
