Loving the weather nerf, in september 18% of OU teams had a politoed on it =/
Megas, gonna go though all of them cause i feel like it and im bored
Venusaur: can be used as a tank but i dont think hes all that great. Venusaur usage will still probably there if sun teams stay around.
Charizard X: DD set will be nice but i doubt theres going to be much outrage spamming for a while with fairy types and aegislash
Charizard Y: Niche in sun teams but X will probably be used a lotttt more
Blastoise: i can see him being used as a slower, bulkier starmie as an offensive rapid spinner but as a wall theres too many good non megas that do that fine and it'd be a waste of a mega slot
Alakazam: I don't like losing focus sash magic guard but that special attack jump is huge
Gengar: Gonna be ubers so fast
Kangaskhan: i heard power up punch works twice on him so that'll be a lot of fun. He has priority as well. I think he'll do good but he def needs something to do with aegislash
Pinsir: I really like pinsir's mega. Stab return/double edge/quick attack on a sd set would do great considering he gets close combat as well. Gonna need spin support though
Gyarados: I can definitely see a bulky SD set working wonders on this, or just a regular sd set.
Aerodactyl: Eh, i dont think this is gonna be all that great but it can still do work if it gets a hone claws up, QuakeEdge is still a great coverage set.
Mewtwo Both: OP OP OP. Their abilities are pretty bad but that doesn't really matter with 190base atk and 194 base spatk.
Ampharos: Bulky attacker will work. Mold breaker is a nice ability too.
Scizor: SD set will work but i think scizor does fine without a mega stone. I'll probably use it because super effective against fairy
Heracross: loss of moxie and gained skill link is meh for me. Does he even have a use for skill link that we know of? And 10 base less speed. nty
Houndoom: I like him, a nasty plot set or something in a sun team will wreck
Tyranitar: Bulky set could be great, ddance would be strong too
Blaziken: OP
Gardevoir: I think will be very strong with or without a megastone. New fairy stabs, good move pool, very good stats. Ability is kinda useless imo though.
Mawile: SD set, stab iron head against dragons, priority, rough play is a strong move, decent defences, huge power ability. Gonna be good.
Aggron: So Bawlky. Great attack. Getting rid of the rock type is nice too. No more x4 weakness to fighting.
Medicham: Good stabs, pure power, will be pretty good.
Manectric: decent ability. Decent attack, good speed, he'll be alright but nothing special imo. Looks awesome though
Banette: Nice attack but i think there are better megas. Disappointed in this one
Absol: Great ability, switch in on a wall and SD up. Will be good once set up but still squishy.
Garchomp: Ability is a little wasted because of sand mechanics now but hes still strong and will be seen definitely.
Lucario: OP
Abomasnow: Dont think he'll be good, hail still sucks.
Ok that took a while, i'll edit more in when im not lazy.
More people need to respond to this topic =(
