Ditto Mega Pairing Ideas and Troll Mega Tips

Summary

In Pokémon Champions this announcement discusses running Ditto with two megas and using a troll mega (example Mega Aggron with Protect) to bait opponents. It covers missing support like Rage Powder or Follow Me, Maushold as a flexible pivot with U Turn, and tradeoffs around Icy Wind and Intimidate spamming. Useful tactical ideas for competitive team building and counterplay.

This is the best my smooth brain could come up with. It's almost good? Curious if anyone has something obviously better.

So funny story. I was helping a guy today with fighting ditto teams

And the way we made it happen was to put a mega on the team that's absolutely useless just to troll them. A mega aggron with protect that was weak to the entire rest of his team. No other moves

It'll help you understand a few of the key things missing

Yeah if I could figure out a strong core of four I totally would love to have a troll couple slots to make them afraid of some other mega pokemon

Rereading that the only thing I'm missing is rage powder/follow me support. I suppose maushlld also gets uturn and has a lot of options as a flex pick?

I was getting in a rut where I'm like well I wanna run icy wind and intimidate spam for support then going but wait that's just nerfing my ditto and when they switch in their last Pokemon I will have a -speed copy of theirs
