Like me and two other people have said, Mega Charizard X has a new set in ORAS that easily puts it back up at S Flare Blitz Dragon Claw / Outrage Tailwind Swords Dance It, and only it, can pull this set off rather flawlessly if it is given a chance to set up. 252 in Attack and 200 in Speed...

This was due to Mega Salamence competition that no longer exists. Mega Charizard X has the tailwind set up that AM addressed. I'm not saying go A+ or go S. I'm simply stating that people want to move him down because at first glance it looks as if he lost some viability, which isn't the case. He...

People just want to see things drop, it's sad really. You make tons of good points, and they seem to forget that it's the fact that Megazard X CAN run those sets that make him S. He is still the best DDer in the game, as I've said before; Mega Altaria is a defensive Dragon Dancer, he is...

Even with great bulk it's weak to Fairy and Priority Ice, I'm on board with moving it up to A+ but if you're suggesting S then in the offensive DD sweeping department it's outclassed by Megazard X's better offensive typing, stats, and ability. It is more of a defensive DD sweeper and should be...

I wasn't going to go over the Bulky set, I was going to do the 252 Atk 252 Spe set but yeah I see your point, thanks anyway.

Could I reserve the DD Adamant Megazard X set? master_marshmallow is going to showcase a different nature with different moves that plays a slightly different role. If not that's fine.

In this current meta Roost is a necessity. You should really build a team around Megazard X if you want to run Earthquake. Roost will grant you longevity, ask anybody and it is the superior option, especially in this current meta with the Speed creep.

My apologies, I'm not trying to say Jolly is completely irrelevant here, my point is that I think the main set addressed should be Adamant, as it's the number one run and the easiest (as this appeals to newcomers.) But I see your point, and I agree wirh you, happy teaching.

Tyranitar was just an example of the Attack loss. Seriously base 100 is not that great anymore and the attack boost is fantastic. Most sets utilize this (including the ones on SMOGON) and yes Roost is more viable but Earthquake is still an option. Adamant Mega Charizard X is still fast enough to...

I'm not for putting Mega Latias in S, but I'm not for keeping it out. Even S Pokémon have counters, but every OU Pokémon needs support, that's what keeps them out of Ubers. It's the amount of checks a Pokémon has and the moves that go with its typing and ability. I think we'll need better...

As an avid Mega Charizard X user, I can confidently say choose Roost over both Earthquake or BB, build around Mega Charizard X to take out its walls. Mega Charizard X needs little help, hence its 'S ranking' but as for the little help it DOES need, a simple steel type (such as Excadrill) will...

While I agree that Mega Gyarados is by no means the definite winner, both can only emerge victorious under certain, different situations. Neither is perfect, and both have their own drawbacks, like most other Pokémon.

That's a good point actually, thanks for the input. I definitely think those two are top choices for DDers, it really depends on personal preference. Altaria is a different Pokémon, more of a defensive one imo, I'd use the other two as DDers more comfortably if I'm being completely honest.

Base 80 Speed says otherwise. Mega Charizard X has a more offensive typing in my opinion anyways. Either way, I actually prefer the Special Attacking Altaria, Hyper Voice + Dragon Pulse is potent when used correctly. Honestly the top two Dragon Dancers imo are Mega Charizard X and Mega Gyarados...

I think I speak for everybody when I say I'm extremely pleased that the OU Council banned Mega Salamence and in doing so, Pokémon is not only more fun, many Pokémon themselves have become more viable. Mega Sceptile; I've noticed more Mega Sceptile's and this is with good reason, that monstrous...
