>>24810359Well, I particularly said it wiped the floor with stall, due to the playstyle's passiveness. The only 'sure' answer stall has with Goth gone is SpDef Unaware Clefable, who can be pressured immensely by its recovery PP and Scald burns.
In general, the trouble with Manaphy is not knowing what set it's running, since making a wrong move gives it a free turn of setup or lets it hit a coverage move on you. HO usually doesn't mind it since things like Latios and Raikou can dance around it, but the surprise factor against balance (and potential to sweep) and the panic it instills in stall definitely raise eyebrows.
Blaziken won't come back for the same reason Aegislash won't (and beyond). It's too centralizing. You'll get Slowbro and Starmie and Lati@s in a greater abundance. And guess who'd love to play with these switch-ins?
