Removing the Flying-type from its banner also makes Mega Altaria more likely to withstand some of its few remaining weaknesses, like Ice and Electricity. On top of that, Mega Altaria's Fairy half gives it an immunity to Dragon-type attacks, negating an essential Dragon-type weakness. This is a type combination unlike any other in the Pokemon games to date, giving this Mega a distinct advantage against other Dragons and all-too-common Dark-types. Mega Altaria may have mediocre stats compared to other Mega Evolutions, but the fact that it becomes a Dragon/Fairy-type gives trainers more than enough reason to give it a whirl. After all, why use a Dragon/Flying-type when more powerful options were available? But Mega Altaria has something going for it that other Dragon-types do not. Since it was introduced, Altaria took a back seat to other more powerful Dragon-types, like Salamence or Dragonite. Speaking of potent anti-Dragon options, an unlikely challenger fills the role in Altaria.
