Altaria-Mega is listed as a Dragon/Fairy 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 Altaria-Mega fits in a VGC team.
The most common build highlights Pixilate, Altarianite and Modest 32/0/0/10/17/7. Its frequent moves include Hyper Voice, Draco Meteor, Protect, and Tailwind. 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, Altaria-Mega has important weaknesses to fairy 2x, ice 2x, poison 2x, steel 2x. That matters during teambuilding because a strong composition needs ways to cover those attacks without giving up offensive pressure. Partners such as scizor-mega, pelipper, decidueye-hisui, raichu, and hydreigon appear often because they can add positioning, type coverage, speed control or safer switches into common checks.
