How to use Aerodactyl-Mega in the current VGC format

Aerodactyl-Mega is listed as a Rock/Flying type in the current Pokémon Champions format, with usage data pulled from competitive teams, tournament results and Showdown-ready pastes tracked by MetaVGC. This page brings together its most common moveset, nature, ability, item, teammates and type weaknesses so you can judge where Aerodactyl-Mega fits in a VGC team.

The most common build highlights Tough Claws, Aerodactylite and Jolly 2/32/0/0/0/32. Its frequent moves include Rock Slide, Dual Wingbeat, Tailwind, Protect, Wide Guard, and Ice Fang. Treat those choices as a data-backed starting point: they show what players are bringing, while EV spreads, Tera Type and the final move slot should still respond to your expected matchups.

Defensively, Aerodactyl-Mega has important weaknesses to electric 2x, ice 2x, rock 2x, steel 2x, water 2x. That matters during teambuilding because a strong composition needs ways to cover those attacks without giving up offensive pressure. Partners such as basculegion-male, garchomp, kingambit, sneasler, and sylveon appear often because they can add positioning, type coverage, speed control or safer switches into common checks.
