Mega Lucario VS Excadrill?

K so I’ve been sitting here for about 2 hours wondering on which of these two use. I haven’t got a whole team planned yet (Procrastination. FTW) so I obviously can’t give you an idea of my team ;~; but I’m not sure whether to use Lucario (Mega Lucario) or Excadrill.For me it’s not just a question of the better offensive option. I know Lucario possesses the higher offensive stats, but Excadrill has access to Rapid Spin, which is something I might need. I dunno :< So I’m completely torn. Alot of power or utility + good power? I has Dragonite (I havn’t got the whole team, but I have some of it), which is the main thing weak to Rocks so far. Halp Me. D:

I think you should choseExcadrillbetween the 2. Excadrill is actually super great, as it is an excellent counter to Tyranitar, abusing the Sandstorm for the use of one of his 3 wonderful abilities (unless you run Mold Breaker) and a spinner is always great to have. But actually, thinking wise,why don’t you get both ?

If you can’t decide, then you will have a great offensive Mega-Evolved Pokémon, and a spinner. A spinner is mandatory on teams with Dragonite, just because of the ability, Multiscale.There are not Mega VS Not Mega.

Honestly, if I were you, I would simply try to get both, or at least Excadrill.

Excadrill is a spinner with a huge attack, access to Mold Breaker Earthquake and a counter to Tyranitar lead, if you have Swords Dance + Sand Rush and Earthquake to kill Tyranitar. Lucario, on the other hand, provides nice offense but is not so useful, except in double with Beat Up Scarfed Sneasel.
