    Pokémon Toxapex

    So Toxapex can stall like nobody's business. It outstalled a Mega-Sab and a Chansey. http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/battle-gen7pokebankou-489726404 I've been using it on my Rain Team Toxapex @ Black Sludge Regenerator Bold 252HP/252Def/4Spd Scald Recover Haze Toxic Haze is maybe the best...

    Hey, we'd made Mega Gardevoir Rank B on the viability rankings thread, just curious as it of you saw?

    ginganinja We talked a few pages back about adding Mega Gardevoir to B Rank?

    I'm alright with that. I've found it's an amazing investment on a well-rounded team.

    I will agree that it has flaws but I do think that the power makes up for the flaws, along with the coverage available. I think that B or B+ is aproperiate for what Gardevoir is capable of. Generally you can get two calm minds in during a game, and while physical Greninja and Talonflame along...

    All valid points, but with STAB Hyper Voice and even 1 calm mind Gardevoir does not need a second turn. Yes, it may only be able to kill 1-3 pokemon, but it can still defeat a lot of Pokemon. B+ or A from what I've seen in battle and through calculations. Also remember that Gardevoir often gets...

    I do understand what you are saying, but many of the speedier pokemon are special attackers, which Gardevoir can take, any Flash Cannons and shadow balls. As I said before, it DOES loose to some pokemon, but nothing under the A rank. I am happy to see Gardevoir in B+, but as by the definition of...

    I would like to nominate Mega Gardevoir for Class A. I would appreciate if this could start a discussion as I've tried to start one many times. Mega Gardevoir and Gardevoir are both very threatening Pokemon this generation with their addition of Fairy type. I believe though, that the boosts...

    Again I'd disagree with e too slow and mega waste part. She's faster than most with 100 speed and a lot of special bulk and enough defensive bulk to take two hits with no EVs there. Not to mention Pixilate STAB Calm Mind Hyper Voice tears through pokemon, with 6 more SpA points than MCharizard Y...

    Again asking thoughts on Mega Gardevoir for Rank A or B+?

    I do understand what you are saying, but I'm not comparing Mega Gardevoir to regular Gardevoir, as they are both two very different pokemon. I still think that it should be A-/A Rank because "Reserved for Pokemon who can sweep or wall significant portions of the metagame, but require some...

    My bad on Genesect. Both Azumarill and Talonflames comments are exceptions, and why they are still on the list is because they are threats. Again, what i'm trying to show is that it does kill a significant portion of the metagame, with speedy physical attackers being in some cases a danger...

    I will respectfully disagree as it changes Garde from a Fairy Support/dragon stopper to much more of a special sweeper type, and again, I'd like to know what weaknesses you are referring to, as I did calcs for my previous post on page 17 and listed any and all threats found in most of OU so far...

    As stated in my post on the previous page, Gardevoir's mega form is really rather bulky, with 135 Special Defense, and a whopping 165 Special Attack, giving it the SpD plus of every other Fairy, and a very dangerous attack ability. Frankly the speed is a bonus and with only two calm minds can...

    Could we refer to my post on the previous page for a discussion on Mega Gardevoir on why it should be either B+ or A rank.
