Me too. It was my waifu is Gen 6 Battlespot Doubles, along with Azumarill.Swampertite, Blazikenite and Sceptilite are finally out!
and the next tournament is announced! Rewards are Gardevoirite, Galladeite and the long awaited Lopunnite.
I am so excited for Mega Lopunny, and I think most of Smogon is too!
Is there gonna be any real reason to use Mega Gard this gen ?Swampertite, Blazikenite and Sceptilite are finally out!

Unfortunately, there's pretty much gonna be no reason to use it, largely due to the omnipresence of Tapu Lele, a Pokemon that outclasses it in virtually every role, as it can actually hold items, doesn't take up your mega slot, and offers Psychic Terrain to support its team. On paper, Mega Gardevoir could potentially form a "Psychic spam" core of sorts with Tapu Lele and take advantage of Psychic Surge, but realistically you're gonna be stacking too many defensive weaknesses, to the point where such a core would be very difficult to build around and not worth it.Is there gonna be any real reason to use Mega Gard this gen ?
Well, I think that Mega Ttar's "viability" in SM OU will last for a maximum of one month, if Mega Lopunny is really relevant in this meta.Abomasnow, Manetric and Tyrranitar stones are the next tournament participation prizes.
That means that the only thing stopping TTar-M from being viable is if the Lopunnite is released with the Steelix and Pidgiot stones.
Well at least she can join Prince Charming in BL (I don't really care for Mega Gard all that much, or Gardevoir in general, there are far better mons then it, power wise and design wise, but it's always sad to see a mon drop in BL). But I feel that's thinking way to far ahead so it's better to just wait and see what really happens. All things considered, I'm just happy one of my favorite Megas is finally coming back (Lopunny).Unfortunately, there's pretty much gonna be no reason to use it, largely due to the omnipresence of Tapu Lele, a Pokemon that outclasses it in virtually every role, as it can actually hold items, doesn't take up your mega slot, and offers Psychic Terrain to support its team.

Mawile is ohko'd by +1 eq, and heracross takes serious damage from +1 fire punch and stone edge.I agree that ttar probably wont be the greatest, but those two dont really like dealing with ttar, they cant switch in at all.Well, I think that Mega Ttar's "viability" in SM OU will last for a maximum of one month, if Mega Lopunny is really relevant in this meta.
To be honest, this will come with virtually no viability, taking into account the fact that Mega Heracross swallows his hits for days and can blow it up with just one, just like Mawile.
Not at all. Mega Gallade is just a more 'balanced' Mega Medicham, so it will end up in BL.I think Mega Gardevoir can still remain in OU, with its higher speed, access to utility like Will o Wisp and a Fairy nuke instead of a Psychic one, it can hold its own. Gallade is a lost cause however, and I wonder if there is any chance it can grace UU?
I asked because I felt that that format might be Mega Gallade's only shot at competitive relevance if it gets stuck in BL here. I apologize for bringing it up here.What does VGC have to do with anything? This is a SM Overused thread.
