TMs define Mega Gardevoir's movepool. The natural moves cover basics with Future Sight and Moonblast, but the real versatility comes from technical machines giving it coverage across 7 types. That's where the options open up.

Hard to wall, honestly. Mega Gardevoir threatens 10 types beyond its own STAB, with Grass and Electric standing out. Pair that with Future Sight and Synchronoise and switchins need to think twice.

|---|---|
| 2x (Weak) | Poison, Ghost, Steel |
| 0.5x (Resist) | Psychic |
