For this video, I show some battles you can do after becoming Champion, the Trainers are higher level, so in this video, I battle against Archer in the Team Rocket Hideout, which was where we first met him alongside Giovanni. He's not the only battle, you can also battle Mina every day, and her team is higher level than before.

As the rest of the description, I recommend watching the full video before reading past this point of the description.

The first battle for this video is against Mina at Vermilion City, she has Mr. Mime and Wigglytuff, but she has a new addition to her team, Alolan Ninetales. I will list her team and their moves.
Mr. Mime: Psychic, Light Screen, Reflect, Dazzling Gleam
Wigglytuff: Flamethrower, Thunderbolt, Shadow Ball, Dazzling Gleam
Alolan Ninetales: Blizzard, Dazzling Gleam, Dark Pulse

If you have a high level Poison or Steel-type, this should be a very easy fight. Mina can be fought daily in order to obtain many Bottle Caps, which after beating the Elite Four, you can get maximum IVs on your Pokémon if it is at Level 100.
Then we have Archer in Team Rocket's Hideout, I will list his team and their moves.
Electrode: Thunder, Foul Play, Explosion, Reflect
Golbat: Air Slash, Crunch, Sludge Bomb, U-turn
Magmar: Fire Punch, Thunder Punch, Clear Smog, Brick Break
Weezing: Dark Pulse, Flamethrower, Sludge Bomb, Shadow Ball

Archer's team has good type coverage, Golbat's Crunch, Magmar's Thunder Punch and Weezing's Dark Pulse and Shadow Ball cover their weaknesses, even though there is no point in having both Dark Pulse and Shadow Ball on Weezing, can't he have Thunderbolt instead of Shadow Ball? I also like how Archer references that Team Rocket will return in three years, which means there will very likely be a sequel to this game.
On Route 17, this is where Jessie and James are, alongside their talking Meowth, which for some reason cannot talk in this game. They have their usual Arbok and Weezing, Arbok has Poison Jab, Glare, Crunch and Rock Slide, and Weezing has Sludge Bomb, Dark Pulse, Flamethrower and Thunderbolt. I thought they would have Lickitung and Victreebel on their team like in the Anime.
I was going to show off something special that you can only get from Pokémon GO, but I ended up getting an error, but I will show off that special thing in a later video.
After becoming Champion, there will be a Pokémaniac, who will sell you Mega Stones for 30000 Pokédollars, I will go over each Mega Evolution by Pokédex number.
First up is Mega Beedrill, this thing has massive Attack and Speed, and a great improvement to Beedrill, it is the best user of U-turn and can inflict great damage with Poison Jab, Drill Run and Outrage. Unfortunately, Mega Beedrill is frail, it cannot take a hit on the Physical side.
Next is Mega Pidgeot, with high Speed and Special Attack, Mega Pidgeot can strike first with Air Slash, giving it a good 30% chance of flinching the opponent, and Heat Wave for excellent coverage against Steel-type opponents.
Mega Alakazam has the second highest Special Attack in the game, and is tied with Electrode and Mega Aerodactyl for the highest Speed in the game. Mega Alakazam can sweep foes with its powerful Psychic attack, and has good coverage in Shadow Ball and Dazzling Gleam, but it is walled by Chansey and Alolan Muk.
Mega Slowbro is tied with Cloyster for the highest Defense, so Mega Slowbro should be able to take Physical hits very well. It works good with Calm Mind, Scald and Rest to make it the unbreakable wall in battle.
Next up is Mega Gengar, it has the third highest Special Attack, and has great Speed, so it is able to strike first in battle with moves like Shadow Ball, Sludge Bomb and Thunderbolt, making it a great option in competitive multiplayer.
Mega Kangaskhan was a game breaker in VGCs thanks to its Ability to hit twice, the second hit being weaker, but due to having no Abilities in this game, Mega Kangaskhan loses out on what made it good in X & Y. It is the best Fake Out user in the game, and it has solid stats, which is all it has going for it, but it's still a decent Pokémon.
Speaking of Pokémon that are hindered by no Abilities, Mega Pinsir unfortunately loses out on Flying-type STAB, because it can not learn any Flying-type moves. It has the second highest Attack, and has good Speed, so Mega Pinsir can deal a lot of damage with X-Scissor, Earthquake and Superpower.
Tied with Mega Pinsir for second highest Attack is Mega Gyarados, which becomes a Water/Dark-type when Mega Evolved. It has the highest Special Defense, making it a solid Pokémon in battle, Mega Gyarados can hit hard with Waterfall, Crunch and Earthquake for good Physical moves.
Last up is Mega Aerodactyl, tied with Electrode and Mega Alakazam for highest Speed, Mega Aerodactyl is the best lead in the game, with access to Taunt and Stealth Rock, and access to moves like Rock Slide and Earthquake to work well with its high Attack, Mega Aerodactyl is good for competitive multiplayer.
