Best Partners for Mega Gengar in VGC
Summary
The Pokémon Champions | VGC Battles & Tournaments community is actively theorycrafting optimal partners for Mega Gengar, including Rillaboom, Incineroar, and Bronzong. This discussion covers strategic core building, terrain management, and competitive battle analysis. Members are sharing team compositions and replay data to help refine strategies for the current VGC meta.
Rillaboom and the rain frog are such an obvious choice. And incin would make a fire water grass core and be incin. Gengar got sludge wave in gen 8 so I think oranguru or a steel type partner (mainly bronzong) would be nice to rip those off and counter trick room with imprison/instruct. But what is everyone else planning?
Not sure if it’s helpful but I went up against this team today. Might give you an idea
Only a replay no showdown paste

I think that guy wanted the fish and Gengar to have the same roll and it didn't work out well for him. I think no terrain is probably a bad choice
