[OVERVIEW]

With a recognizably high Attack stat, Mega Mewtwo X is one of the leading physical attackers in Balanced Hackmons. With vast and unpredictable coverage alongside Protean, it is able deal large amounts of damage to most of the metagame with relative ease. However, such power comes at a cost, as it can be difficult to deal with opposing Imposter users, which can transform into Mega Mewtwo X. It can also be rendered extremely ineffective against certain walls such as common Fur Coat users like Giratina.

Moves
========

Precipice Blades defeats many common Pokemon that are weak to Ground, such as Mega Gengar, Mega Diancie, and a plethora of defensive Steel-types, such as Registeel and Aegislash. Thousand Arrows can also be used as a more accurate option; however, the damage output from Precipice Blades is generally preferable. Bolt Strike is another powerful move that complements Ground-type coverage, allowing Mega Mewtwo X to take out Pokemon such as Mega Slowbro and the occasional Flying-types such as Mega Rayquaza, Ho-Oh, and Yveltal. Fusion Bolt is a more accurate alternative; however, similarly to Precipice Blades, the damage output from Bolt Strike is usually superior. V-create is useful for demolishing Pokemon that don't resist Fire-type attacks; however, it must be used sparingly, as the stat drops can easily be taken advantage of by the foe. Extreme Speed functions as a useful priority attack that works best for picking off weakened threats and also overcoming -ate Pokemon while not having to rely on King's Shield to lower their Attack stat. Sucker Punch also acts as a useful priority move for defeating offensive Pokemon that Mega Mewtwo X may struggle to beat, such as Mega Gengar and Protean Mega Mewtwo Y. Draco Meteor hits Dragon-types such as Mega Rayquaza and Giratina hard, especially when boosted by a Life Orb. King's Shield is essential, allowing Mega Mewtwo X to take on super effective priority moves from Pokemon with Aerilate, Pixilate, and Gale Wings; even if the foe doesn't suffer an Attack drop, the Steel typing from Protean allows Mega Mewtwo X to survive priority moves that it otherwise wouldn't.

Set Details
========

The given EV spread maximizes Mega Mewtwo X's offensive presence. A Speed-boosting nature is necessary to outspeed everything that it can. Not only does Protean render an Attack-boosting nature unnecessary, but the occasional Mega Rayquaza, Mega Diancie, and Mega Gengar running Speed-boosting natures can severely put a dent in Mega Mewtwo X without it. As such, a Jolly nature is the most practical choice. If Draco Meteor is being used, a Naive nature should be used, as it gives Mega Mewtwo X a little insulation from physical priority moves and does not lower its Special Attack. The 4 HP EVs should also be moved into Special Attack when using Draco Meteor. Safety Goggles is the safest item choice, allowing Mega Mewtwo X to block Spore from common Prankster users such as Aegislash; it is also especially useful with King's Shield unable to block status ailments. If more power is preferred, Life Orb is the best option to boost the power of all moves.

Usage Tips
========

When facing off against priority users, do not be afraid to use King's Shield. It is almost always the safest option unless it is highly likely the foe will do something that will be problematic, such as use a boosting move or switch to teammate that can defeat Mega Mewtwo X.

Team Options
========

The most important thing to have on your team is a check to your own Mega Mewtwo X in case an Imposter user transforms into it. This check may vary depending on the moves that are chosen; however, bulky Fur Coat users such as Giratina that do not have a weakness to one of Mega Mewtwo X's moves are generally the best option. A check for Giratina is useful if Mega Mewtwo X does not run Draco Meteor, as it will be hard-walled by Giratina otherwise; examples of Giratina checks include Mega Diancie and Mega Gengar. Sturdy Shedinja hard-walls Mega Mewtwo X, as it cannot afford to run moves that deal passive damage such as Infestation without severely limiting its coverage. As such, Pokemon that can eliminate Shedinja, such as Stealth Rock setters and Mold Breaker + Pursuit users, are recommended, such as Clefable and Mega Aggron, etc. Burns and paralysis will completely cripple Mega Mewtwo X, so a cleric such as Umbreon makes for a good teammate.

[STRATEGY COMMENTS]
Other Options
=============

Protean Mega Mewtwo X can effectively run any move that has a useful function; for example, Play Rough, Icicle Crash, and Knock Off can hit non-Fur Coat Giratina sets hard, while a potential Magma Storm could be used for the occasional Shedinja. A Refrigerate set can be used to surprise and defeat Pokemon that are weak to Ice such, as Mega Rayquaza, frail offensive Pokemon, such as Mega Gengar, and non-Fur Coat Giratina. Mold Breaker can be also be used in conjunction with Pursuit to defeat Sturdy Shedinja; Fighting-type STAB moves and an unrivaled Attack stat give Mega Mewtwo X a niche over other Mold Breaker users. U-turn could also be used as a powerful option for pivoting.

Checks and Counters
===================
**Giratina**: Giratina serves as Mega Mewtwo X's greatest check, particularly Fur Coat sets; without Draco Meteor, there is nothing that Mega Mewtwo X can do due to the lack of super effective physical coverage moves available.

**Imposter**: The titanic bulk of Imposter users such as Chansey almost always means that they will defeat Mega Mewtwo X, even if the latter wins the Speed tie. Additionally, if Mega Mewtwo X is unable to check its own Mega Mewtwo X set or if your team's check has fainted, then transformed Imposter users will be free to sweep.

**Shedinja**: Mega Mewtwo X can't afford to run moves that defeat Shedinja without hindering its own coverage against the rest of the metagame.

**Fur Coat**: If the Pokemon running Fur Coat isn't weak to any of Mega Mewtwo X's moves, it will likely be able to check Mega Mewtwo X. Notable examples include Giratina and Mega Audino.

Thanks for waiting

Overview:

• Minor nitpick, but I would change the phrasing of "loses heavily to the Pokemon that wall it" to something more like "can be rendered extremely ineffective" or something similar because the walls usually cannot actively kill it directly, and rely on things like burst

Set Offensive Protean:

• (optional) I think the name of the set can just be Protean, as there is unlikely a defensive Protean set, much less an M2x one

Moves:

• (Remove) mentions of Primals
• (optional) As an OO, U-turn can sometimes be an option for powerful pivoting
• Mention that Espeed can also overcome -ates and gale wings without having to rely on KS

Set Details:

• The max speed also lets it speed tie GengarM which can otherwise run circles around M2x, even with KS
• Naive over Jolly to give insulation (and also increase SpA)
• Safety Goggles with KS is especially good since KS does not block status and some ates run spore to try to take advantage of this

Team Options:

• Burn (and Para) cripple Protean M2x (as you lose the advantage of selecting your type in advance)

Other Options:

• Fighting STAB (and the unrivaled attack stat) lets it be a niche Mold Breaker option
• Magma Storm can be the one coverage that has decent power and can get Shed
• (Remove) Mention of Primal Groudon as well as Crabhammer as it is now redundant by Thousand Arrows
• (optional mention of) PH Coil M2x

Everything else is good

QC3/3

I implemented this check so it should be ready for GP

Thousand Arrows can also be used as a more accurate option,; (comma --> semi colon) however, (AC) the damage output from Precipice Blades is generally more preferable. Bolt Strike is another powerful move that complements Ground-type coverage, allowing Mega Mewtwo X to take out Pokemon such as Mega Slowbro and the occasional Flying-types such as Mega Rayquaza, Ho-Oh, (AC) and Yveltal. It is also used to hit Mega Rayquaza hard. Fusion Bolt is a more accurate alternative, ; (comma --> semi colon) however, similarly to Precipice Blades, the damage output from Bolt Strike is usually superior. V-create is useful in demolishing Pokemon that do not don't resist Fire-type attacks (just subjective), ; (comma --> semi colon) however, (AC) it must be used sparingly, (AC) as the stat drops can easily be taken advantage of by the opponent foe. Extreme(space)Speed functions as a useful priority attack that works best for picking off weakened Pokemon threats and also overcome overcoming [to match "picking off] -ates Pokemon while not having to rely on King's Shield to lower their Attack stat. Sucker Punch also acts as a useful priority move for defeating offensive Pokemon that Mega Mewtwo X may struggle to beat, such as Mega Gengar and Protean Mega Mewtwo Y. Draco Meteor hits Dragon-types, such as Mega Rayquaza and Giratina sets (I don't think this really matters when adding that word. When "sets" is being said, it sounds like Mega Mewtwo X can hit Giratina no matter what moveset it runs.) hard, especially when boosted by a Life Orb. (full stop period) , and can efficiently defeat other Dragon-types such as Mega Rayquaza. King's Shield is essential, allowing Mega Mewtwo X to take on sets that run super effective priority moves such as Aerilate, Pixilate, (AC) or Gale Wings; even if the opponent foe doesn't not suffer an Attack drop, the Steel typing from Protean allows Mega Mewtwo X to survive priority moves that it otherwise wouldn't.

Set Details
========

The given EV spread maximizes offensive efficiency for Mega Mewtwo X. A Speed-boosting nature is necessary to outspeed everything that it can. Not only does Protean render an Attack-boosting nature unnecessary, but the occasional Mega Rayquaza, Mega Diancie, and Mega Gengar running Speed-boosting natures can severely put a dent in [needed if you're not saying "can severely dent"] Mega Mewtwo X. A Jolly nature is therefore the most practical choice. If Draco Meteor is being used, a Naive nature should be used, (AC) as it gives Mega Mewtwo X a little insulation from physical priority and also does not lower its Special Attack. The 4 HP EVs should also be moved into Special Attack when using Draco Meteor. Safety Goggles is the safer item choice, allowing Mega Mewtwo X to block Spore from common Prankter Prankster users such as Aegislash; [semi > period] it is also That item is the best choice, (AC) especially useful [less choppy imo!] with King's Shield unable to block status aliments. If more power is preferred, Life Orb is the best option for boosting the power of all moves.

Usage Tips
========

When facing off priority users, do not be afraid to use King's Shield. It is almost always the safest option, unless it is highly likely your opponent will do something that will be problematic, [ac] such as boosting their Pokemon's [the opponent has no stats to boost!] stats or switching into another Pokemon that can defeat Mega Mewtwo X.

Team Options
========

The most important thing to have on your team is a check to your own Mega Mewtwo X in case an Imposter-user (RH) transforms into it. This check may vary depending on the moves that are chosen, ; (comma ---> semi colon) however, (AC) bulky Fur Coat users that do not have a weakness to one of Mega Mewtwo X's moves are generally the best option. (Such as what?) A check for Giratina is useful if Mega Mewtwo X does not run Draco Meteor, as it will be hard-walled by Giratina; (A semi colon should go here because there is a conjunctive adverb linking two independent clauses (otherwise)) otherwise;, (semi colon ---> comma) examples of Giratina checks include Mega Diancie and Mega Gengar. Sturdy Shedinja hard-walls Mega Mewtwo X, (AC) as the latter it [keep "the latter" because "it" doesn't specify whether you're talking about Sturdy Shedinja or Mega Mewtwo X] cannot afford to run moves that deal passive damage such as Infestation without severely limiting their its coverage, thus strategies that eliminate Shedinja such as Stealth Rock and Pursuit Mold Breaker are recommended. Burns and paralysis will completely cripple Mega Mewtwo X, thus so a status-healing move is recommended on defensive Pokemon on the team. (Some notable Pokemon that run Stealth Rock, Pursuit Mold Breaker, and status-healing moves?)

[STRATEGY COMMENTS]
Other Options
=============

Protean can effectively run any move that has a useful function; for example, Play Rough, Icicle Crash, (AC) and Knock Off can hit non-Fur Coat Giratina sets hard and, [space] while a potential Magma Storm could be used for the occasional Shedinja. A Refrigerate set can be used to surprise and defeat Pokemon that are weak to Ice such as Mega Rayquaza, or frail offensive Pokemon such as Mega Gengar, as well as non-Fur Coat Giratina. (full stop period) sets that don't run Fur Coat. Mold Breaker can be also be used in conjunction with Pursuit to defeat Sturdy Shedinja; Fighting-type [adjective] STAB moves and an unrivaled Attack stat is what gives it Mega Mewtwo X a niche over other Mold Breaker users. Lastly, U-turn could be used as a powerful option for pivoting.

Checks and Counters
===================
**Giratina**: Giratina serves as Mega Mewtwo X's greatest check, especially Fur Coat sets; without Draco Meteor, there is nothing that Mega Mewtwo X can do due to the lack of super effective physical coverage available.

**Imposter-users**: The titanic bulk of Imposter-users (RH) almost always means that it they ["imposter users," so multiple!] will defeat Mega Mewtwo X, even if the latter wins the Speed tie. Additionally, if you are Mega Mewtwo X is unable to check your its own Mega Mewtwo X set or the check has fainted, then transformed Imposter-users (RH) will be free to sweep. (I would mention Chansey somewhere because that is a common Imposter Pokemon in BH.)

**Shedinja**: As was already mentioned, Mega Mewtwo X can't afford to run moves that defeat Shedinja without hindering its own coverage against the rest of the metagame.

**Fur Coat**: Also as previously mentioned, If the Pokemon running Fur Coat it is a Pokemon that isn't weak to any of Mega Mewtwo X's moves, most bulky Pokemon with Fur Coat it will likely be able to check Mega Mewtwo X. [period] Notable examples include can check it, such as Giratina and Mega Audino.

Nice job Misaka Mikoto! 1/2 :)

[OVERVIEW]

With a recognizably large high Attack stat, Mega Mewtwo X is one of the leading physical attackers in Balanced Hackmons. With vast and unpredictable coverage,(AC) and through the utilization of Protean,(Protean does not give a mon "vast and unpredictable coverage". Dangling modifier? I think?) it is able to deal large amounts of damage to most of the metagame with relative ease. However, such power comes at a cost, as it can be difficult to deal with opposing Imposter users, which who can transform into Mega Mewtwo X. It can also be rendered extremely ineffective against certain walls such as common Fur Coat users like Giratina.

The analysis was uploaded, but you made some concerning choices in adapting this analysis, which already had the necessary QC checks, that indicate a lack of metagame knowledge.

As such, Pokemon that can eliminate Shedinja, such as Stealth Rock setters and Mold Breaker + Pursuit users, are recommended, such as Clefable and Mega Aggron, etc. Burns and paralysis will completely cripple Mega Mewtwo X, so a cleric such as Umbreon makes for a good teammate.

Clefable has no use in BH, and Mega Aggron has limited viability (it is especially not useful as a Mold Breaker + Pursuit user). Umbreon is also mostly unviable.

We do appreciate your effort to add concrete examples, which Heisenerg's analysis was a bit deficient in. In uploading this analysis, Eevee General and I have replaced your examples with more viable ones. In the future, please don't take over an analysis if you're unfamiliar with the metagame.
