Who is faster? Alakazam Or Heracross?( Both mega)?

Showdown…Opponent had Tailwind Up

It was mega heracross vs my Mega Alakazam

Alakazam was maxed speed-timid,31ivs,252evs.

Heracross-Idk, but would it outspeed me if it was maxed out in speed also? (Mega Form)

A Mega Alakazam with maximum speed investment hits 438 speed. Mega Heracross whereas only hits 273 speed when fully invested. Because of Tailwind, the 273 speed would have been doubled to 546 therefore would have out speed you.

Should the situation arise, I would play it safe and switch. However if I am correct about people running little speed investment, I would try get some prior damage off on it and make a judgment as to how much investment it has in HP. Just don’t make stupid gambles. On the other hand, should it have Tailwind support, it may not be running much speed seen as it wouldn’t out speed much important and still loses out to a lot of scarfed Pokemon. Then again, this situation is unlikely to happen.

Heracross would be faster, since tailwind doubles your teams speed stat. Hope I helped!
