Project Fakemon: Mega Serperior V.2

For those of you who have been with me for a while, you guys probably already know that serperior is my favorite pokemon. Mega serperior was actually one of my first fakemon: xxd17.deviantart.com/art/Proje…

I thought it was about time to "renew" the design. 

Mega Serperior

Grass/ Dragon type

Ability: Royal Skin- halves the damage of super-effective moves

+25 Def, +25 SpDef, +35 SpAtk, +15 Spd

Now there were a few changes that I made and I will address them. One thing is the frill versus the mantle. I decided to go with the mantle design this time because it kind of looks like wings which adds to the dragon typing. I also stylized the leaves on the head to look more like a crown rather than horns. As for the ability, grass/ dragon isn't the best defensively, that's why I wanted to give it a defensive ability. Sure you can't spam leaf storm anymore when you mega at this point, but now, you won't be so easily one-shotted. The idea is to set up as regular contrary serp. meg evolve and then continue sweeping with another move while being able to tank SE moves. A set like leaf storm/ giga drain/ HP fire/ dragon pulse would work fine IMO.
