Y'all seem to be forgetting that being asleep is terrible for a mon with no STAB coverage. Not only does it prevent setup, but Sleep Talk's random pick makes it even easier to set up on. And we're in a meta brimming with powerful mon. Are we really so lame as to not even test out a unique new...

It's no contest in terms of bulk: Meggersby's 85/97/97 while Megacham is 60/85/85. Furthermore, Diggersby has STAB priority and access to Agility, and the two have considerably different typings both offensively and defensively (Diggersby is weak to Water, Fighting, Ice, and Grass, which hurts...

As I've pointed out plenty of times, Mega Durant is just stupid. There's no flavorful reason whatsoever for it to have Will o Wisp or Flare Blitz. Fire Absorb would fit much better if we absolutely need it to be Fire-immune. In any case, from before: Dragonite should be changed, given Storm...

The Rotoms in general are sorta lame given they all get new moves; in principle I'm not against adding new moves, but the Rotoms' movesets seem pretty intentionally limited by GF and adding new non-Electric STABs seems pretty drastic. There's got to be a better way to improve them.

I'd love to reslate Poliwrath tbh, given -No Guard Dynamic Punch is boring and practically everywhere, and -No Guard Hypnosis renders Hypno's niche inferior (Hypno is just bound to be worse than the better-typed better-statted Poliwrath if they have a similar role), which sucks given Hypno is...

yayyy, totally okay with Dragalge having that attack boost. But let's keep Dragalge's low 44 speed and give it just 10 for Attack. Also I will fight tooth and nail for my Gothitelle. I love my Gothitelle.

Mega Dragalge Type: Poison/Dragon -> Poison/Dragon Ability: Poison Point/Poison Touch/Adaptability -> Looming (+1 priority to all Dragon-type moves) New Moves: Acid Spray HP: 65 -> 65 Atk: 75 -> 72 (+0) Def: 90 -> 120 (+30) SpA: 97 -> 127 (+30) SpD: 123 -> 153 (+30) Spe: 44 -> 34 (-10) Flavor...

I think Trickster is a super nifty ability, I just don't think Whimsicott is at all a good user of it. A strong Pursuit abuser or really anything sturdier would work wonders.

Agree on Raider/Tempest, but fully stand by Hibernate. 75% was chosen for a very specific reason: sleep is an awful status, and Rest/Talk is only viable with a drastic benefit, especially given Ursa's lack of resists. It only has two more moves with this strategy, and needs both for coverage...

Enh, technically correct (the best kind of correct!), but that certainly was done as a showcase for the then-new Steel type. I see it as special circumstances. Also, nightsitter, I don't remember who brought it up and where, but I once saw "Germinate" as the name for a Grass-type -ate, and...

...why would you not just read the OP before asking? Literally the first thing you can click on shows you the list of megas we've made. My mind is boggled by your lack of basic sense.

Mega Kyu-B is going to be Uber. We need to accept that so we don't try and nerf this mon just to fit it into what we would play in OU. This isn't Slaking or Regigigas, this is a mon that's a step away from being Uber already and cannot justifiably have a mega that would fit in OU. It would be...

Sabreholo, here's no precedent for a mon getting Spit Up but not Stockpile or Swallow. If you want to use Spit Up then those are the other two moves in your quota. In any case, 170/55/75 with pure Water typing is plenty bulky for a mon that fires off 225 BP Water Spouts and 300 BP Spit Ups...

Wow, three out of four, thanks folks! Mega Tropius Type: Grass/Flying -> Grass/Dragon Abilities: Chlorophyll/Solar Power/Harvest -> Filter New Moves: Nope! HP: 99 -> 99 Atk: 68 -> 98 (+30) Def: 83 -> 103 (+30) SpA: 72 -> 72 (+0) SpD: 87 -> 107 (+30) Spe: 51 -> 61 (+10) Flavor Concept: Fruit...

I do love that Torkoal's typing and stat distribution, but there's got to be a better ability out there than Sturdy, particularly as this is a Rapid Spinner who thus intends to switch in on hazards to remove them, and has no viable recovery (not even Leftovers!), making it worthless in most...

Sabreholo, it's "@ username" without the space. Also, glad to see Torkoal isn't getting screwed over.

Torkoal was already done by Dry Paratroopa, so hopefully he'll argue his case here. My idea for Mega Torkoal would be Fire/Water with Scald, and turning it from a tortoise to a turtle. It already has the steam flavor handy, and will maintain its bulk with Filter. Shell Smash can be used if...

Mega Seviper Type: Poison -> Poison/Dark Abilities: Shed Skin/Infiltrator -> Mold Breaker New Moves: Gunk Shot, Fire Blast (it gets Flamethrower but not Fire Blast?) HP: 73 -> 73 Atk: 100 -> 120 (+20) Def: 60 -> 90 (+30) SpA: 100 -> 120 (+20) SpD: 60 -> 90 (+30) Spe: 65 -> 65 (+0) BST: 458 ->...

My idea for Swalot is the custom ability Stuffed, which gives it a full Stockpile effect whenever it switches in (barring the defense boosts, as an automatic +3 to each defense is way too good). This is not only great flavor for a living stomach, but lets it use Swallow to fully recover its HP...

Honesty, I say Slowbro got a fantastic ability. Regen is great, but it has Slack Off, and as mentioned it's now optimized for Calm Mind. What's the only thing that can stop a defensive booster after it gets rollong? Well, status like Toxic, but standard bro has that problem too. What do you do...
