Little Cup Mega Evolutions! [Eviolite Boost Removed ; Meditite Banned]

[The Avalanches]

I know Dragon-types mostly suck in LC, but M-Bagon could be absolutely a threat after a Dragon Dance boost.

Bagon @ Bagonite
Trait: Aerilate
EVs: 196 Atk / 76 Def / 196 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Dragon Dance
- Return
- Dragon Claw
- Brick Break

Aerilate Return shreds every Fighting-type in the meta after a DD, and it can even do a considerable chunk to the bulkier walls of the tier like Spritzee and Vullaby.

236+ Atk Aerilate Bagon Return vs. 76 HP / 76+ Def Eviolite Timburr: 26-32 (104 - 128%) -- guaranteed OHKO

unfixable, IMO you should have a viability rankings in the OP

 

[skies]

Hey guys, updated the OP finally n_n! I'm thinking about working on coding this, but we should spark some discussion! What do you guys think about Mega Snorunt? Is Double Edge enough to save it? Possibly with Sticky Web support?

 

[dhelmise]

I think that Snorunt alone isn't the very best Pokemon, but with it's new LC mega, that sparked a ton of potential. Allowing it to have Refrigerate with Double Edge, despite the fact of recoil, It as a much better chance of living longer throughout the battle. This might be seen as a potential threat to some of the megas.

 

[dhelmise]

unfixable, I think that you should add Crunch on Magikarp, as it was added to Gyarados just because of the mega forme.

 

[The Avalanches]

I couldn't see myself giving Snorunt much of a look right now. It doesn't really threatening unless under webs. I got a look at Buneary's stats though, 96 Attack and 100 Speed are pretty brutal, as it can hit 20 Speed while still having fiercely powerful attacks. What's more is Gastly and Pumpkaboo have a hard time switching in thanks to Scrappy. So I see it functioning similarly to Lopunny.

50th post!

I would like to thank nobody because I am a nobody!

 

[Da Pizza Man]

Looking back at it, shouldn't the Mega Raltses Mega evolve according to the Mega stone they are holding (Either Gardevoirite or Galladeite) instead of Gender?

 

[dhelmise]

The Pizza Man, yeah, they should, but only male Ralts can become Gallade, so the gender still applies.

 

[The Avalanches]

I'm just speculating idly right now, but these two could make a pretty impressive core. Mega-Swablu's Pixilate Hyper Voice OHKOes everything weak to it after Stealth Rock damage. Not nearly everything, everything. After an Agility, and with Knock Off and Stealth Rock support, Swablu can sweep even from its average 60 Special Attack. Ferroseed is a spectacular teammate as not only can it provide both Knock Off and Stealth Rock support, it's also a fantastic switch-in for the Poison-, Fairy-, and Steel-type attacks that threaten Swablu while Swablu can take on the Fighting- and Fire-type attacks that trouble Ferroseed, as Swablu has access to recovery and is still bulky even without access to Eviolite.
