Is a mega-stone always the best route to go?

I mean, obviously there is the MAJOR stat boost, but only one Pokemon per battle can use it. But on the other hand, you never know what Pokemon is best as a mega evo. SO is it worth putting a mega stone on multiple Pokemon?

I would normally put a mega stone on only one Pokemon, but putting multiple stones on them could have its advantages, in the case of the one you want to mega-evolve fainting prematurely. Or if it’s weak to most of the Pokemon you are battling. You could really go either way.

I would say, though, having multiple mega stones in-game is better than in competitive, because you can better afford to lose a Pokemon with revives in hand. In-game you can basically mega evolve whenever you want to, but in competitive you have to have good timing. Again, either way has its ups and downs Without focus sashes and all that, you can’t stay alive, but then without multiple mega stones, if your mega faints you’re sunk.

I’m not sure if I made much sense, so I’m hoping someone else who knows a bit more of what they’re talking about will answer this in more detail. If I did, however, make sense I hope I helped.

In-game I’d have as many Pokemon holdingMega Stonesas you can, since the game is very easy anyway and you won’t have things likeFocus SashandLife Orbetc yet during the story there really isn’t anything to lose.

However, if you’re playing competitively whether you’re competing in aWiFi Battleor in theBattle MaisonI would only recommend oneMega Stone, you can only summon one per battle and you need to decide which would be most beneficial to your team if you have more than one possibleMega Evolution.

If you have more than oneMega Stonein a competitive match itputs you at a huge disadvantage as that time your opponent lived with1 HPand you were holding an inactiveMega Stoneinstead of aLife Orbfor example means you lost that match up for no reason.
