Top Mega Kangaskhan Counters

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

  • Terrakion: Double Kick, Sacred Sword
  • Shadow Machamp: Counter, Dynamic Punch
  • Keldeo: Low Kick, Sacred Sword
  • Mega Rayquaza: Dragon Tail, Dragon Ascent
  • Shadow Hariyama: Counter, Dynamic Punch
  • Mega Blaziken: Counter, Focus Blast
  • Conkeldurr: Counter, Dynamic Punch
  • Mega Alakazam: Counter, Focus Blast
  • Lucario: Counter, Aura Sphere
  • Galarian Zapdos: Counter, Close Combat

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 Kangaskhan with efficiency.

  • Breloom: Counter, Dynamic Punch
  • Machamp: Counter, Dynamic Punch
  • Hawlucha: Low Kick, Flying Press
  • Buzzwole: Counter, Superpower
  • Pheromosa: Low Kick, Focus Blast
  • Hariyama: Counter, Dynamic Punch
  • Virizion: Double Kick, Sacred Sword
  • Cobalion: Double Kick, Sacred Sword
  • Sirfetch'd: Counter, Close Combat
  • Heracross: Counter, Close Combat

How Many Trainers Are Needed?

Mega Kangaskhan can be defeated with two 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.
