How to use Gyarados-Mega in the current VGC format

Gyarados-Mega is listed as a Water/Dark 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 Gyarados-Mega fits in a VGC team.

The most common build highlights Mold Breaker, Gyaradosite and Jolly 2/32/0/0/0/32. Its frequent moves include Waterfall, Dragon Dance, Protect, Crunch, Iron Head, and Earthquake. 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, Gyarados-Mega has important weaknesses to bug 2x, electric 2x, fairy 2x, fighting 2x, grass 2x. That matters during teambuilding because a strong composition needs ways to cover those attacks without giving up offensive pressure. Partners such as garchomp, sneasler, kingambit, delphox-mega, and sinistcha appear often because they can add positioning, type coverage, speed control or safer switches into common checks.
