The power behind mega Alakazam is interesting with the comparison you make with shadow Mewtwo. I am glad it is here as a contender, but I dread the day that mega Mewtwo arrives because I like the idea of letting the fewer players that own a shadow Mewtwo hold their legacy dominance. I don't have a shadow Mewtwo, but still believe the game should keep some future proof things off limits and unchallenged. Also best of luck on a shiny Abra or Alakazam everyone!
I loved the raid challenge in Chicago against Machamp when we couldn’t use Mewtwo. I won my first go plus with my Alakazams and one Espeon. Haven’t really used them since then, which seemed odd. Now this beast is here!
Mega Alakazam 367- 382 > Shadow Mewtwo 360- 375. Shadow Mewtwo still holds it's number 1 psychic attacker due to Psystrike, and the difference is small in attack
