What is your honest opinion on Aegislash?

hated him before i used him. turns out hes based as fuck

I like it, I think it's a cool design and and interesting way of dealing with the Steel/Ghost typing. Design-wise, though, I actually kind of prefer Doublade. I feel like a Smogonfag for using it, though, since it is so deadly.

Used him in my XY playthrough because sword mon with fantastic typing like you bet your ass I'm gonna use that

Ghost is my fav type, then I bred for comp and he was even better

Truly a great cancer

Awesome pokemon, from design to concept and all the way to Ubers where he belongs. He is the jack of all trades, master of all trades. You cannot predict his moveset until he's hilt-deep in your ass.

Was my bro during my initial playthrough of X/Y. I love the concept and design. Never understood why it was banned in the first place, though. I never had trouble with it, but whatever.

SMOGONSWORD STRONK

I hate it because I am not allowed to like Pokemon that are good in battle.

GO DELIBIRD!

Cool concept but boring to play.

>>30939246
But is it EVER a good time to use King's Shield??

>>30939246
Easiest mon to use and fits on every team when it is OU. Stupidly broken. "50-50s" are actually almost always in your favor. A game coming down to Aegislash vs Aegislash is the dumbest thing as well. In short, it is fun to use to fuck up low ladder scrubs, but the worst thing ever for higher ranked games where every team starts using it.

>>30939246
A great example of why they need to completely rebalance the typings.

>>30939246
It's alright, but I prefer Honedge as a design.

>>30939246
I don't give it enough love. Definitely should be more of a staple on my team.

>>30939571
Do Z-moves hit it like they do Protect and co?

It has a pretty cool design and it's fun to use in battles.

Overall a good pokemon, at least in my opinion.

>>30939246
Only one flaw
>Sword pokemon
>Attacks with it's hands rather than the sword body

Tackle or Cut?

>>30939246
Shit.

>>30939729
it's also pretty cute.

>>30939371
Never had trouble with it either, but maybe because I always run Gyarados.

>>30939246
Is it the reason why steel lost resistances to ghost and dark?

Honedge was one of my favorites when it was revealed, didn't like Aegis' design as much but I love how it played. I can perfectly understand why Smogon bans it though, too much guesswork involved when fighting it.

>>30940094
Probably.
I like Aegislash but I'll never forgive it for killing off Bronzong.

>>30939857
You motherfucker.
I said Cut then, and I'll say Cut now.
RIPIP Hex ;_;

What's the best set for it in singles?

Loved the entire line since Honedge's initial reveal and all the object-mon shitposting. Was the MVP of my copy of X but then I realized it's because Aegislash is OP. Still love it but I feel like I'm cheating when I use it.

I want to fug it.

Best girl

>>30940464
King's Shield
Shadow Ball
Everything else depends on your team.

>>30939246
I think it's one of the coolest Pokémon designs.

>>30940579
I'd sharpen that to purple sharpness if you know what I mean.

The true gen 6 pseudo.

>>30939246
Love it. As much as I want to pander to my inner genwunner, Pangoro and Aegislash are my favourite Pokemon, despite XY being pretty bad overall.

>>30939246
Loved it since Parfum Palace, fuck the haters.

One of my favorites of Gen 6. Loved Honedge, loved Doublade, and I love Aegislash just as well.

>>30940601
I'm actually building a team around it.

>>30940677
Doesn't it have 700 BST if you take both its formes into account?

>>30941924
720. Which is equal to Arceus.

>>30942413
What was gamefreak thinking?

I only do doubles so it doesn't bother me

What are some teammates that synergize well with Aegislash?
I've used Porygon2 with moderate success since they cover each other's main weaknesses

>>30939246
It looks really dumb in shield forme

what's a good set for this guy?

Doublade is more fun to use. Mode-switching in the middle of battle all the time gets kinda tiresome.

>>30946501
More fun yeah, but good luck making it survive.

>tfw I want to use Aegislash on my team but can't because Decidueye is already a ghost and I hate repeating types

>>30946708
I have one, but because you decided to beg for it in a random thread FUCK YOU

Good Poke, used him in X and he pretty much destroyed the game.
>tfw remembering people saying how retarded it was to run him with Shadow Ball
Oh how times have changed.

i have a 6IV adamant honedge
haven't trained it though since i heard physical aegislash was shit compared to other options
should i? what EVs

>>30939246
My Ace in X (along with just about everyone else)

>>30939371
Ability was top-notch, typing was top-notch, but it was really the fact that King's Shield was obscenely good against contact attackers that made him go over the edge into Ubers.

I dont really like it. Its only ubers because of how fucking retarded playing around it is, otherwise it just makes matches drag out

I like him because doublade with eviolite is pretty fun.
