The Strong Prevail

Mega Aggron's Ability became Filter after Mega Evolution.

This was an extremely rare Ability.

Aside from it, only Mime Jr. and Mr. Mime might possess this Ability.

Its effect was simple.

It reduced damage caused by super effective moves.

Put simply, it further enhanced Mega Aggron's defensive capabilities against moves with type advantage.

If it were on Mime Jr. or Mr. Mime,

Filter would not have seemed quite so powerful or exaggerated.

After all, their own type resistance was not especially outstanding.

Although their special defense was decent, overall, they could only be considered passable.

However,

when Filter appeared together with Mega Aggron, things became somewhat different.

Aggron, originally a Steel and Rock Type Absol, became a Pure Steel Type after Mega Evolution.

While gaining Immunity to Poison-type moves, it also possessed solid resistance to no fewer than ten types.

Not only that,

the only types that remained super effective against it were Fighting, Fire-type, and Ground, none of which had a quadruple weakness.

With the support of Filter,

the damage those three types could inflict was reduced even further, only slightly stronger than ordinary Water- or Electric-type moves.

It would not be an exaggeration to say

that for Mega Aggron, the suppressive power brought by type advantage had basically fallen to its lowest point.

Even Mega Blaziken, with its Fire and Fighting Type combination, could only be said to handle this giant more easily than other Absol.

Mega Blaziken still held an absolute advantage in one regard.

That was its speed.

Leaping roughly fifty meters into the air in an instant, it effortlessly dodged Mega Aggron's Take Down.

The two Absol, one in the sky and one on the ground, exchanged glances.

Their powerful auras collided, sending visible waves of air spreading outward layer by layer.
