Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best moveset for Mega Mewtwo X in Pokemon GO?
Mega Mewtwo X's best moveset is Counter (fast) and Focus Blast (charged), providing 23.1 DPS as a Fighting-type attacker. This combination maximizes damage output thanks to STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus), strong energy generation from the fast move, and high DPE (damage per energy) on the charged move. For PvP, consider running Psycho Cut and Focus Blast instead, as PvP movesets prioritize energy generation and shield pressure over raw DPS.
What are Mega Mewtwo X's weaknesses in Pokemon GO?
Mega Mewtwo X is weak to Fairy, Flying, Ghost-type moves. On the other hand, Mega Mewtwo X resists Fighting, Rock-type attacks, so avoid using those types against it. To counter Mega Mewtwo X effectively in raids and gyms, build a team using its weakest type matchups and pick attackers that have STAB moves of those types.
What is Mega Mewtwo X's max CP in Pokemon GO?
Mega Mewtwo X's maximum CP is 6,910 at level 50 (with XL Candy), or 6,112 at level 40. Reaching level 50 requires XL Candy, which is only available to trainers level 31 and above — earning XL Candy involves catching, hatching, transferring, and walking Pokemon. Mega Mewtwo X's CP is calculated from its base stats: 399 Attack, 215 Defense, and 228 Stamina. Powering up from level 40 to 50 requires a significant investment of XL Candy and Stardust, so plan your resources carefully. A 100% IV Mega Mewtwo X caught from raids or eggs (level 20) will have 3,492 CP, or 4,366 CP with weather boost (level 25).
Is Mega Mewtwo X good for PvP in Pokemon GO?
Mega Mewtwo X is ranked #2 (Tier S) in Master League with a 75.00% overall win rate. The recommended moveset is Psycho Cut and Focus Blast. The ideal IV spread for Master League is 15/15/15 — for CP-capped leagues like Great League and Ultra League, lower Attack IVs with higher Defense and Stamina allow Mega Mewtwo X to reach a higher level within the CP cap, gaining more total stat product. Unlocking a second charged move is highly recommended for PvP, as it gives Mega Mewtwo X better coverage and the ability to bait shields more effectively. The cost is 100,000 Stardust and 100 Candy.
What CP is a 100% IV Mega Mewtwo X?
A perfect 15/15/15 IV Mega Mewtwo X has the following CP at key levels: 2,620 CP at level 15 (research encounters), 3,492 CP at level 20 (raid and egg catches), 4,366 CP at level 25 (weather-boosted raids), and 6,910 CP at level 50 fully powered up. If you catch a perfect IV Mega Mewtwo X, it is worth investing Stardust and Candy to power it up, especially if Mega Mewtwo X ranks well in raids or PvP. A 100% IV (also called a "hundo") is the rarest IV combination, so tag and favorite it to make sure you don't accidentally transfer it.
How to get Mega Mewtwo X in Pokemon GO?
Mega Mewtwo X is obtained by evolving its pre-evolution (Mewtwo with Candy).
Can Mega Mewtwo X be shiny in Pokemon GO?
Shiny Mega Mewtwo X's availability depends on whether Niantic has released its shiny form. Not all Pokemon have their shiny forms available yet. Check the current events page and Community Day announcements for any updates on shiny Mega Mewtwo X availability and boosted shiny rates during special events.
