Moveset analysis

For raids and gyms, Mega Mewtwo Y runs Psycho Cut with Ice Beam — 18.3 DPS and 438 TDO as a Ice-type attacker. It also covers the Psychic slot with Confusion and Psystrike.

In Master League it runs Psycho Cut and Psystrike. 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); Psycho Cut builds energy fastest (14 EPS). Hyper Beam, Psystrike, Shadow Ball are Elite TM moves and cannot be taught with a regular Charged TM.

Is Mega Mewtwo Y good in Pokemon GO?

Worth powering up
Power upStardustCandyXL Candy
Lv 20 → 40 135,000 15

Mega Mewtwo Y is a Tier S Ice-type attacker at rank #1, 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 (413), so it hits harder than it survives — a glass-cannon raid slot rather than a gym defender.
  • A second charged move costs 100,000 Dust and 100 Candy, and with 8 charged moves to pick from it is the single biggest PvP upgrade you can buy.
  • Its moves get a damage boost in Windy weather — worth timing raids around.

Unlocking the second charged move is the highest-value upgrade: it lets Mega Mewtwo Y bait shields instead of committing to one attack.
