FAQ

What is Mega Malamar weak to?

Mega Malamar takes super effective damage from Bug, Fairy-type moves. Bug is a double weakness (2.56×), so those attackers clear it fastest.

Can Mega Malamar be shiny?

Yes — the encounter after this raid can be shiny.

What weather boosts Mega Malamar?

Fog, Windy. Boss moves of the boosted types hit 20% harder (so do yours), and the catch is level 25 instead of 20: 2,189–2,290 CP instead of 1,760–1,841. The 10/10/10 IV floor is the same either way.

Is Mega Malamar worth raiding?

Mega Malamar has no raid-attacker or GO Battle League ranking on this site, so the reasons to raid it are the dex entry, the candy and the shiny rather than your battle teams.
