Question

Is there any way overcoat is better for reuniclus than magic guard?

Comments

In Mew's Secret Santa tourney.

Answer 1

Magic Guard can be used to block status problems, recoil from weather, and hazards.

Overcoat can only block weather recoil.

So all in all Magic Guard>Overcoat

Answer 2

Magic Guard is for non weather teams.
Staus, Weather, all non attacking moves are blocked.

Overcoat is for weather teams.
Weather is blocked.

Magic Guard > Overcoat

It means that MG is yes, pretty much better than Overcoat.
