Moveset analysis
For raids and gyms, Mega Blaziken runs Counter with Aura Sphere — 22.0 DPS and 440 TDO as a Fighting-type attacker. It also covers the Fire slot with Fire Spin and Blast Burn.
In Great League it runs Ember and Overheat. In Ultra League it runs Ember and Overheat. In Master League it runs Ember and Overheat. PvP movesets favour energy generation and shield pressure over raw damage, which is why they often differ from the raid set.
The highest-damage fast move is Counter (13 DPS); Ember builds energy fastest (10 EPS). Blast Burn, Stone Edge are Elite TM moves and cannot be taught with a regular Charged TM.

Is Mega Blaziken good in Pokemon GO?
| Power up | Stardust | Candy | XL Candy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lv 20 → 40 | 135,000 | 15 | — |
Mega Blaziken is a Tier S Fighting-type attacker at rank #2, so the Stardust pays for itself in raid damage. Take it to level 40 first; XL Candy to 50 only matters once you already have a full team of six.
- Attack is its highest stat (329), so it hits harder than it survives — a glass-cannon raid slot rather than a gym defender.
- A second charged move costs 10,000 Dust and 25 Candy, and with 7 charged moves to pick from it is the single biggest PvP upgrade you can buy.
- Its moves get a damage boost in Sunny and Cloudy weather — worth timing raids around.
