Mega Medicham is a Fighting- and Psychic-type Pocket Monster. As a result, this Mega creature is vulnerable to the following elemental typings:

• Fairy
• Flying
• Ghost

The dual elemental typing of Mega Medicham makes it strong against the following types of creatures:

• Rock
• Fighting

Even though Mega Medicham will be a five-star Mega Raid boss, it won't have a massive Combat Power stat. With a mere 29,060 clicks on its CP counter and a low defense stat of 179, you can easily take this Mega monster down even if you are raiding it alone.

Mega Medicham has a decent moveset, but it won’t be good enough to knock you out of the raid with all your attacking Pokemon.
