roost	Flight/Status	The user regains half of their maximum HP and temporarily loses their Flying type.	Ideally, you'll want Roost to eliminate the risk of being taken out by Mega Raichu X/Y. Use it to remove the flying type from the Mega Staraptor. Plus, it restores your stamina, so it’s a win-win.

Mega Staraptor teams are virtually identical in most competitive metas. pivot, apply/booster, destroyerand late game sweeper Same as Garchomp or Basculegion (male).

The idea is to establish the Mega Staraptor as your main tank/attacker by buffing its defense, speed, and attack, while enemy players are too focused on making it their top priority. At this point, use the Pivot (Grimmsnarl) strategy to place a Reflection or Light Screen to make it impossible for them to OHKO you.

You can then use Parting Shot with Grimmsnarl via Mega Staraptor to increase your stats and switch to Sinistcha for quick healing. Then use Strength Sap on Staraptor to boost its attacks and heal SInistcha. Then turn off Sinistcha and launch Whimsicott as Prankster. You can distribute more stat boosts or cause confusion to the enemy team.

Sinica	grass/ghost	Sap of Power Got matcha Powder of Rage protect	hospitality	Direct support, switch strategy	Switch to Sinistcha to activate the Hospitality ability and keep your Mega Staraptor's health in peak condition. Use Strength Sap on your Mega Staraptor to restore health and increase attack power. To get the most out of Hospitality, it is recommended that players use Grimmsnarl with Parting Shot.
Grimsnall	Dark/Fairy	parting shot reflect fake tears scary face	naughty	Support, disruption and transition strategies	Reflect applies team-wide, while Fake Tears and Scary Face can be used to get Mega Staraptor into optimal shape. Use Parting Shot on the Mega Staraptor and switch to Sinistcha to quickly recover the Mega Staraptor.
Whimsicot	Grass/Fairy	fake tears/protection charm/tickling/spores Moonblast fair winds	naughty	Support, stat boost, hinder	One of the best supports for Mega Staraptor. You can use fake tears, charm, tickle, cotton spore, and tailwind. If Prankster sets his movement priority to the top, Whimsicott can be very destructive and can be taken advantage of by setting up Tailwind from the start.
Gartsov	Dragon/Ground	earthquake protect rock slide frenzy	rough skin	Coverage, attacker, late game sweeper	Garchomp is one of the best Earth-type sweepers, with Earthquake capable of dealing with Mega Staraptor's most infamous Electric-type checks. Additionally, using a Garchomp with a Choice Scarf will prevent Garchomp from using any of his other moves, but will guarantee priority.
Basculegion (Male)	ghost/water	last respect flip rotate wave crash Aqua Jet	adaptability	Late game sweeper, switch strategy	An absolute beast. Once your team is wiped out, throw this Pokemon onto the battlefield, use it with your choice scarf, and bring one last respect to the enemy team. There will be nothing left. A late-game sweeper who could also be a potential ally for Sinistcha to switch to if needed.

Later in the game, players will want to switch to Basculegion or Garchomp to ensure victory. The Mega Staraptor may be pretty beat up or pretty healthy by now, depending on how strong the enemy team was.

If you have an electric check in front of you, it's always wise to have Garchov instead of Vasculegion. If an earthquake occurs at the right time, it can cause great damage to Megaraichu or Arcaludon.

Before using Earthquake, make sure you haven't used Roost with Mega Staraptor. Otherwise, you risk being hit by an earthquake and ruining your strategy.
