Mega Lucario Moves in Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire

Moves List

Mega Lucario uses Lucario's moves: learn them before it Mega Evolves.

The TM pool is where it gets interesting. Coverage across 13 types means almost nothing walls Mega Lucario cleanly, with Focus Punch and High Jump Kick anchoring the STAB side. Matchup flexibility isn't a problem.
