Best counters

All viable counters — ranked by DPS³×TDOSuper-effective charged moves only
All movesetsRegular movesets (no Elite TM)

DPS and estimated total damage output (TDO) are computed against Mega Sceptile's actual typing and Mega boss stats — each attacker's best fast + charged pairing, ranked by the combined DPS³ × TDO score. Legacy / Elite-TM movesets are excluded. Shadow forms exist for Mamoswine — a Shadow version deals ×1.2 damage (~20% harder) but also takes ×1.2 damage. This is per-boss matchup math, not the neutral-target tier list. Full formula on the methodology page.
