Cover me.
Most of what's been said about Mega Ampharos also came up the last time we had a discussion on it. Then, as now, I believed that it should move up to low B+, but the arguments against that stance are perfectly valid. To sum it up, it's a solid pivot with useful typing and stats that can serve as a primary or secondary answer to a lot of important threats in the current meta (it can check stuff like Entei, Feraligatr, Sharpedo, Zapdos, Crawdaunt, Honchkrow, the Rotom formes, etc.), but also suffers from a limited movepool and lack of reliable recovery, and is relatively easy to overload and force out. It also presents a significant opportunity cost in that it prevents you from using another Mega Evolution.
As for Gyarados, I think it belongs in S. It's easily one of the best Pokemon in UU right now. It reminds me of Salamence in the sense that it has multiple threatening offensive sets and can also make use of its typing and Intimidate to run a defensive set as well, allowing it to fit easily onto any team archetype.
I also think that regular Aerodactyl should rise to B-. It really only does one thing (suicide for Stealth Rock control), but it does it better than any of the other available options, should a team require its niche. Azelf is a solid suicide lead that benefits from its ability to threaten a Life Orb offensive lead set, but it doesn't guarantee Stealth Rock quite the way Aerodactyl does, should that be necessary. Aerodactyl doesn't really deserve a slot anywhere other than on HO, but it does its one job well enough to rise on strength of that alone. That said, it really only has that one niche, so I can see keeping it where it is.
