Medicham description

Pick if you like

Avoid if you dislike

High Damage: Medicham boasts an extremely high amount of practical combo routes that do a large amount of damage from several different combo starters. Mixups: Medicham has low-committal lows and highs, along with a strong anti-grab tool in jB, making it hard to play defense against it. Approaching: Medicham is a monster up-close, and has multiple approach tools to close the gap, including a far-reaching 2B that destroys projectiles. Low Skill Floor: A lack of motion inputs, high damage on BnBs, and a straightforward game plan make Medicham a character that's fast to pick up.

Fragile: Medicham has the lowest health and endurance in the entire game. You also have a rather mediocre anti-air parry hitbox, making your defense even worse. Pokes: Lacks quick disjointed attacks to contest strong Pokes from other characters. Parries: Medicham's mixups are a bit vulnerable to parries, which could be timed to cover multiple options at once.
