Top Mega Aggron Counters

Pokebattler, which calculates all possible combinations of Pokémon and moves, lists the top ten Mega Aggron counters as such:

  • Primal Groudon: Mud Shot, Precipice Blades
  • Mega Blaziken: Counter, Blast Burn
  • Shadow Groudon: Mud Shot, Precipice Blades
  • Shadow Excadrill: Mud-Slap, Scorching Sands
  • Mega Garchomp: Mud Shot, Earth Power
  • Mega Heracross: Counter, Close Combat
  • Terrakion: Double Kick, Sacred Sword
  • Shadow Machamp: Counter, Dynamic Punch
  • Shadow Garchomp: Mud Shot, Earth Power
  • Reshiram: Fire Fang, Overheat

It is recommended to power up your counters as much as possible, but creating that amount of strong Shadow Pokémon with their moves unlocked is a tall order for even the most practiced players. Here are ten additional non-Shadow and non-Mega counters that can help take down Mega Aggron with efficiency.

  • Keldeo: Low Kick, Sacred Sword
  • Lucario: Counter, Aura Sphere
  • Therian Forme Landorus: Mud Shot, Sandsear Storm
  • Heatran: Fire Spin, Magma Storm
  • Excadrill: Mud-Slap, Earthquake
  • Groudon: Mud Shot, Precipice Blades
  • Conkeldurr: Counter, Dynamic Punch
  • Machamp: Counter, Dynamic Punch
  • Emboar: Low Kick, Blast Burn
  • Blaziken: Counter, Blast Burn

How Many Trainers Are Needed?

Mega Aggron can be defeated with three trainers, but if you cannot guarantee the top counters with maxed-out CP and the best moves, your best bet is to make sure you have four or more players. Using the Circle Lock Technique to guarantee Great or Excellent throws, along with Golden Razz Berries, is the best way to catch Pokémon. If you get a Shiny, though, it is a guaranteed catch so be sure to use a Pinap Berry.

Shiny Odds

The Shiny rate for Mega-capable Pokémon is approximately one in 60.
