aim is actually a highly skilled and respected player in the community. Also, 252+ Atk Huge Power Mega Mawile Fire Fang vs. 248 HP / 252 Def Mega Scizor: 336-396 (97.9 - 115.4%) -- 87.5% chance to OHKO The damage doesn't seem much to a Skarmory, but keep in mind that's to a defensive wall. The...

That's the thing. Mawile isn't meant to sweep teams. Its main job is to force a switch and then hit something hard that switches in on it.

I definitely want to participate in the VGC '15 season as well. With all these new megas and Lati@s, it should be kind of intense. I look forward to it.

A little, but I got to meet and take pictures with JWittz and chuggaaconroy. I could almost die in peace after that.

I saw one of his big matches yesterday when he used Pachirisu effectively. I just couldn't believe my eyes.

I made an album of pics I took today while I was there. I also got to meet some of my favorite PokeTubers, which was really the highlight of my day. Too bad I didn't get any battles while walking around. http://imgur.com/a/70tLG

If you're talking about Azumarill in this instance, why not just attack instead of wasting a turn using encore? Assuming Azumarill got a safe switch in, it'll be 2HKO'd by Play Rough (Or can possibly be straight up OHKOd if coming in on rocks), meaning it has 2 turns to do something. Encore...

I'd be arriving in the morning, Saturday and probably Sunday. I just need to take the Metro to get there and back.

In a way, yeah. Mawile can pretty much guarantee a kill when used correctly, but also has excellent typing and solid movepool, which go together in reasons for pro-ban.

In a lot of cases, it causes you to sacrifice something just to be able to bring in a check (And more often than not, the Mawile will switch out). If Mawile can guarantee that to happen more often than not, it is broken. It's not directly about having the capability of destroying most things...

According to ticketmaster, the cheapest tickets (Seats in the back section) are $50. That's not too bad, is it?

They added a second night, as in there will be another night for it other than Friday? EDIT: Just saw. Well, nice. I couldn't go to it on Friday, so maybe I can on Saturday if I can get people to go.

Already at a Mawile suspect test. It's certainly justified. Part of me wouldn't want to see it go, but putting personal bias aside and thinking more about this, I do think it should be banned. Mawile's Speed is low, yes, but overall it isn't too much of a hindrance. I'd say the fact that it's...

I live in Maryland as well, pretty close to D.C. I'll definitely be there. I'd like to get somewhat more involved in VGC as well as Smogon, so I think watching some of the best players in the world live is a good learning experience (I do have knowledge on the VGC '14 Meta, but just don't really...

Quagsire outslows Aegislash by a large amount. It'll OHKO Aegislash in blade form with EQ if it tries to Shadow Ball. As for SubToxic, minimum invested EQ from Quag onto Aegislash in standard shield spread does 40% at the very minimum. It'll beat Aegislash 1v1, assuming both are at full health...

The only other ghosts even viable in OU are Gengar and Trevenant (To an extent). There aren't many ghost types to begin with, most aren't viable for OU. EQ is one of the most spammable moves in the game. You don't have to slap it on every Pokemon that can learn it, but its usefulness as an...

-We've established Aegislash has few to no actual counters because of its moveset potential. This is also a metagame where a lot of Pokemon have more reliable checks than counters because of the possible utility and the amount of Pokemon. -Hawlucha may see more usage but still isn't viable in OU...

Aegislash having 4MSS isn't a good anti-ban reason. As scar stated in the Deoxys-D/Deoxys-S suspect test thread, "four moveslot syndrome doesn't make you less effective, it means you're more unpredictable and therefore more threatening. Plus it's not even like it needs to use all its moves, it...

Yes, it would be banned. Broken things get banned, regardless of what it may or may not prevent from being more OP. That's how it works. "Broken counters broken" is not a valid argument.

1. Saying Mega-Banette is good while saying Mega-Manectric isn't? That's completely incorrect. 2. Sure, Focus Punch has some sort of use (As I learned from the guy on the ladder who pro-played me with his Focus Punch Mawile), but Fire Fang does too, just some different choices of Pokemon. Fire...
