I mean, it's hardly the best, but it's still got a SHITLOAD of attack and decent bulk. And it remains an excellent typing both for offense and defense.
>>
>>32658818

What happened to it? Could it just not keep up with the power creep?
>>
>>32660039
Priority got nerfed this gen
>>
>>32660039
Sucker Punch and prioirty got nerfed
In addition to pokemon like Scizor, Ferrothorn, Charizard X, and Skarmory resisting its stabs, Gen 7 added Celesteela, Toxapex, A-Marowak (who also resists Thunder Punch, Fire Fang and Focus Punch) and Tapu Fini that can check it reliably
>>
>>32658818
>A rank OU
>bad
>>
>>32660284
Considering that it was banned last gen and it has the highest Attack in the game, being A rank in OU isn't that impressive.

>>32660380
No, I'm not saying it's bad, I'm just saying that it's worse than it should be on paper. It's really good with support from Tapu Fini.
>>
>>32660395
But you're agreeing with OP

fucking kill yourself my man

>>32660401
I am OP.
>>
>>32660410
Not that anon, but saying "being A rank in OU isn't that impressive" is pretty fucking retarded. It just means that it's not broken anymore, but it still is one of the best Pokémon in OU.

It's not bad, per se, but worse than it should be. Don't get me wrong, though, it's still one of my favourites.

>>
>>32660448
It's not bad, it's just not as good as it would seem (if you don't have Tapu Fini).
>>

>worse than it should be
What does this even mean? Gengar went to UU and it's not broken there, but it's A rank in OU anyway. It's a fantastic Pokémon.
Talonflame it's a bad Pokémon now, not Mawile.

A shit one.

So you disagreed with yourself?

So the general consensus is that Mega Mawile is a bad Pokemon, then?

what the actual fuck

It's not as huge as it sounds. Most major legendaries have higher raw power when boosted by Life Orb.

Iron Head or Play Rough?
>>
>>32660904
Both.
>>
>>32658818
When did you realize that this Pokemon is literally inspired greatly by BW's Iris?

Okay, so I'm not the only one.
>>
>>32660410
>thinking A rank in OU is anything but impressive

Take your own advice.
>>
>>32660904
play rough
other moveslots are generally better suited toward thunderpunch/your choice of fangs
play rough hits most things hard enough anyway, you don't need iron head
>>
>>32660904
>>32661241
Iron Head is garbage coverage, don't run it.
Sucker Punch and Play Rough are standard. Last two slots can be either Swords Dance + Knock Off or Thunder Punch + Fire Fang. There's also more gimmicky stuff like Focus Punch and Stealth Rock.
>>
>>32661519
Metal Burst is good on Mega Mawile.
>>
>>32660698
Life Orb is so stupid.
>>
>>32658818
Mawile-M even Mawile will never be a bad, best and cutest mon.

I want to know if all Megas are supposed to be based on something else. I noticed Mega Aerodactyl looks like a Rath ages ago, and I saw some shit on /m/ comparing Mega Pinsir to some Kamen Rider hyper mode.
