Weaknesses: Flying, Psychic, Fairy (Lucario is weak to Fighting, Ground, Fire).
Strategy:
- Flying-type Pokémon: Staraptor is a fantastic choice, with powerful Flying-type moves.
- Psychic-type Pokémon: Kadabra/Alakazam or Gardevoir can deal heavy damage to Meditite and Machoke.
- For Lucario: Fire-type (Infernape, Rapidash) or Ground-type (Garchomp, Hippowdon) moves are super effective. Be careful of its high Attack and Special Attack.
- General Tips: Meditite's Pure Power ability doubles its Attack, making it surprisingly strong. Machoke's Guts boosts its Attack when it has a status condition. Lucario is Maylene's ace and can be very challenging. Don't rely on Normal-type moves.
