But Mega Ampharos is the perfect design philosophy for megas. Accentuating a pokemon without taking away too much to threaten its identity.

Mega Manetric for me is one of those pokemon that like Chesnaught looks like absolute shit in XY, but is fine in the official art and such

I would have made it electric/rock and themed it after a lighthouse, since it's named after a famous lighthouse (the Pharos at Alexandria) but I'm a twat.

Mega Ampharos is one of the best pivots in UU, well paired with any of the massive fire nukes in the tier since it laughs at water types and has a slow Volt Switch to get you nukes in safely. I run it on bulky offense teams.

Higher chance to paralyze.

Going to be honest, I fail to see the use in Cotton Guard on a mon with no recovery. When I use M Amp I use it as a pivot and an in for my scarfer through slow Volt Switch. You get so many chances to switch in with M Amp since Elec/Dragon is a really good typing.

It's not named specifically because of The Pharos of Alexandria. Pharos means lighthouse so it could be any lighthouse.
