Is there any good strategies against Knock Off, outside of using a mega? I dislike that you almost have to run a mega if you're using a stall team because of Knock Off, even then you can't do anything useful when you switch in (such as setting up) as they might have Foul Play. Plus few megas have recovery, so even then you have to take a hit and lose some of your precious HP.
I know you can use Weakness Policy (well, not if that bug still persists), but that's still only a one time deal and you have to pass up recovery for it (you can also then be phazed, or just walled by something appropriate, etc.). I imagine Game Freak increased the BP to encourage mega usage - but they've just made a move that is exceptionally easy to put on any team and has an enormous beneficial effect; Mandibuzz in particular makes very brutal use of it but so can any other bulky or fast pokemon that has it.
