If this Pokémon has any Psychic Energy attached, this attack does 40 more damage. This attack's damage isn't affected by any effects on your opponent's Active Pokémon.
Mega Medicham ex attacks with Chakra Fist for 100 base damage or 140 when any Psychic Energy is attached, and its damage ignores all effects on the opponent's Active Pokemon — making it the premier counter to effect-dependent walls. The win condition is landing Chakra Fist into ex targets at 140 damage to score 2 points per swing.
Open by benching Meditite and using Professor's Research, Copycat, and Poké Ball to find basics while building toward the Medicham evolution. Because Mega Medicham ex is a Stage 1 Mega, you cannot skip Meditite — Poké Ball finds Meditite, and the Mega evolution must arrive through draw. Turn 3 onward, Mega Medicham ex threatens 140 damage with a Psychic Energy attached, covering a wide range of ex knockouts in one or two hits. Pichu and Oricorio on the bench provide supplemental utility, and Lucky Ice Pop along with Training Area smooth the energy and healing game plan.
opponent's Active Pokemon (no Psychic Energy)
Chakra Fist base 100 dmg at [Fighting,Colorless,Colorless]
opponent's Active Pokemon (with any Psychic Energy attached)
Chakra Fist base 100 + Psychic bonus 40 = 140 dmg
Damage ignores all effects on the opponent's Active Pokemon — bypasses Safeguard, damage reducers, and status shields
The 40-damage bonus from any Psychic Energy turns Chakra Fist from a solid 100-damage hit into a 140-damage sweep. Prioritize sourcing a Psychic Energy by turn 3 so Mega Medicham ex is immediately threatening on the turn it evolves. Training Area helps accelerate the additional energy type.
Chakra Fist's ignore clause is uniquely powerful against decks like Oricorio. When facing Safeguard or damage-reduction tools, Mega Medicham ex attacks straight through. Use Sabrina and Guzma to drag up the defending Pokemon and ensure Chakra Fist lands where it is most efficient.
Every game against this deck has the same structural threat: if you can knock out the single Mega Medicham ex, the opponent loses immediately. Concentrate all offensive resources on the Mega. It has 180 HP as a Stage 1, so high-damage ex attackers or chip-plus-finisher sequences are required.
Fighting-type Pokemon are weak to Psychic. A high-damage Psychic attacker threatens Mega Medicham ex with boosted effective damage, turning 140 HP into a shorter survival window and racing the Mega before it can close out the game.
Mega Medicham ex needs Meditite on the bench plus a draw-delivered Mega evolution. Before turn 3, the opponent is attacking with raw Meditite or Pichu. Aggressive non-ex damage pressure in those two turns can deny the evolution window or leave the Mega on very low HP the turn it evolves.
