In Pokemon GO, new seasons tend to come into rotation every so many months as part of the live-service format in which the game tends to follow. With each new season that occurs, a new seasonal theme is introduced, which man influence the types of wild Pokemon, Egg hatch spawns, Raid bosses and in-game events are available to the player at any given time. Additional in-game celebrations and events may introduce additional Pokemon for a limited time, particularly with the like of certain Raid bosses such as Shadow Raids, 5-Star Raids, and Mega Raids.

Mega Raids are especially challenging in Pokemon GO, but they offer some of the best rewards. As well as Stardust, Rare Candies, EXP, and Berries, they're a way to get valuable Mega Energy. This can be used to evolve Medicham into its Mega Form once it's been caught. Given how difficult and important they are, it's important to be prepared for Mega Raids when they happen - so all relevant information to help players prepare, such as core weaknesses/resistances and the best counters, has been included in the guide below.

Mega Medicham Weaknesses & Resistances in Pokemon GO

Mega Medicham Pokemon GO

In Pokemon GO, Mega Medicham is a Fighting and Psychic Dual-Type monster with a maximum CP of 2821 and a stat spread of 205 ATK, 179 DEF, and 155 STA. Due to this Type combination, Mega Medicham is resistant to monsters and moves of the Fighting and Rock Types, so players should avoid utilizing these attributes at all costs, so as to not put themselves at any disadvantage.

However, due to this unique Type combination, Mega Medicham is also weak to Pokemon or powerful moves of the Ghost, Fairy, and Flying Types. For this reason, Trainers should prioritize building a team of such specimens, as this will give them the best shot at taking down the raid boss. Lastly, through the Weather Boost mechanic, Mega Medicham gains an increase in power whilst battling under Windy or Cloudy weather conditions, so players may wish to avoid Raids in such locations if possible.
