Mandiubuzz on flying does have STAB foul play and a considerable faster taunt than skarmory. These two alone make it play somewhat different from skarmory. (eg if skarm is burned then they can send out their wall and SR over and over in a loop while you defog, foul play being less 50/50 than...

I'm just going to drop in and say that I don't find shadow tag very ban worthy- Wobbufet and Gothitelle can indeed remove semi-stall pokemon quite reliably- However- these are mostly mons on team archtypes that Psychic already has more reliable options for- and in matchups where you would want a...

I know you didn't want to use calcs, but there are indeed a few more defensive checks against a mega-cham with only SR support . Additonally, Medicham will always give up something- Hi-jumpkick/ fake out/zen headbut / ice punch and Hi-jumpkick/fake out /ice punch/ thunderpunch are the most...

I would like elaboration here.... . I would like a good number of these prominent/standard teams to be defined. Additionally, there seems to be a implicit suggestion that the teams under attack are "balance" teams, but imho, those were not worthy of of being considered of standard to begin with...

How well does it play around a steel team using mega-scizor? I've never really been happy with chipping heatran with bolt strike, and if you use u-turn on scizor switching out too much I always feel like you end up training the opponent to get aggressive...

Looks good only two things stand out. Where does this rock polish set come from? 378 / Torterra / 56 / Neutral / 156 / +2 Manaphy should probably be added in the 492s because of z-rain dance. Also challenging usage of scarf Comfey in same place. 492 / Staraptor, Salamence, Victini, Jirachi...

Mega Pidgeot Normal- much better against fighting, bug. A little easier versus dark/ghost, just because they can't go into megasab/mandibuzz lightly, and it can force out the other team members to its nice base speed. Might be nice in matchup versus psychic as well. Workup sets should be decent...

Only really feeling z conversion and z belly drum's impact.... Z-celebrate on starters precludes the use of mega stones, and while the eevees get stored power the only ones a good position to use it with celebrate are espeon and maybe sylveon. Dragon dance does as much for gyarados offensively...
