Alright /vp I have a question for you all

Who do you feel is the most underrated Mega Pokemon?

I haven't been able to use them all but I am starting to take a liking to Mega Houndoom and nobody ever uses him

Mega-Doom can do well when paired with a Drought pokemon. In multi-battle, if your partner has a Megazard Y with Tailwind(Bank), you can clean up pretty well.

Not exactly fast enough to sweep. Pretty bad defensive typing with below average bulk.

But dear Arceus that pure power stab'd HJK.

he may not be very bulky but he has such good coverage, very few mons can freely switch into him, you pretty much need to revenge kill him.

Rock/Ice has two 4x weaknesses, and 4 other weaknesses for a total of 6. However, it only resists 4 types.

Grass/Psychic has one 4x weakness and six other weaknesses for 7. However, it resists six types.

Technically, Grass/Psychic is better defensively. But Rock/Ice is better overall due to Rock and Ice STAB.

With support from Yveltal (Dark Aura) and Meowstic/Ninetales (sun), this thing hits insanely hard.
It can even OHKO some opposing cover legendaries with just Flamethrower.
