Pokédex notes
Mega Mewtwo X is a Mega Unknown form in GO. Mega forms boost same-type allies in raids; lead with Mega when the lobby needs that type.
Where in GO: Mega Raids, Mega Energy, and high-tier events
Invest tip: Farm X Mega Energy from featured Mega raids and events. Prefer X when you want Fighting coverage; prefer Y for classic Psychic raid boosting.
Type matchups
- Fighting moves hit Normal, Ice, Rock, Dark, and Steel hard.
- Psychic moves hit Fighting and Poison hard.
When Mega Mewtwo X is your opponent, Flying, Ghost, Fairy hits hard.
