Aerial Ace or Psycho Cut for Physical Mega Absol?

Dec. 17, 2014



I want a good moveset for physical mega Absol, but I can’t get superpower. I found out that psycho cut was really good for Absol, but I also saw that aerial ace gave more coverage. Which one should I take for mega Absol? Should I maybe have both?

After dibbling around in Smogon for a while, I have come up with this: Superpower is a staple move for any Absol. However, seeing as you have no access to it, the better choice would probably bePsycho Cut. Aerial Ace gives more coverage, however it doesn’t have the power (or handy crit chance) that Psycho Cut has. The suggested moveset would be:

If you choose Stone Edge for the final moveslot, the set is resisted by 11 Pokémon. If you choos Play Rough (egg move, may be difficult to get), the set is resisted by 3 Pokémon. If you are able to get Superpower, the set is resisted by NO Pokémon. Perish Song forces switches, but it’s risky.

Hope you have some Super Luck with your Absol! (see what I did there?)
