Mega Lopunny wields its mighty fist up high, becoming a very potent wallbreaker and sweeper thanks to Power-Up Punch and its stellar Speed tier, which capitalizes on National Dex's lack of good speed control and lets Mega Lopunny give its team a great offensive matchup. It can even keep the performance going with Encore and prevent defensive walls that try to hold off Mega Lopunny like Toxapex and Corviknight from using their recovery moves; however, predicting wrong into Corviknight's Brave Bird or Toxapex's Scald can spell the end for Mega Lopunny quickly. Return and Close Combat make it nigh unwallable; however, it can still be outsped by Pokemon like Unburden Hawlucha, Choice Scarf Landorus-T, and Choice Scarf Tapu Lele, stopping it from being a perfect sweeper. Corviknight and Slowbro are valued for being able to stop these revenge killers alongside providing Mega Lopunny with pivot and Future Sight support, which expands its opportunities to break down the opposing team. Additionally, it still values teammates that can break down Zapdos, Corviknight, and Clefable for it to not rely on Encore as much, so Tapu Koko and Heatran make for great partners.
