How to use Starmie-Mega in the current VGC format

Starmie-Mega is listed as a Water/Psychic 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 Starmie-Mega fits in a VGC team.

The most common build highlights Huge Power, Starminite and Timid 2/0/0/32/0/32. Its frequent moves include Protect, Liquidation, Aqua Jet, Psycho Cut, Ice Spinner, and Zen Headbutt. 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, Starmie-Mega has important weaknesses to bug 2x, dark 2x, electric 2x, ghost 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 pelipper, sneasler, archaludon, kingambit, and incineroar appear often because they can add positioning, type coverage, speed control or safer switches into common checks.
