>>18081506>Th-they'll just keep banning mega after mega until there's none leftShadow Tag is a bullshit broken ability. Gothitelle went from PU to BL when it got it. When something with MUCH better stats and a better movepool got it? What did you think was going to happen.
Kangskhan was stupid powerful. It didn't just shit on stall, it shit on everything. And not only was it stupid powerful, it was so bulky and easy to use that a retarded monkey could use it to beat a much more skillful player.
Lucario is not as unstoppable but it's still really strong and can go special or phyiscal. Literally only Aegislash can counter both sets, that and, uh, Assault Vest Azumarill.
"Smogon wants to ban Pinsir because it shits on stall" would be wrong because Skarmory is Pinsir's best counter and that's a staple of stall teams. Mandibuzz can also counter it. It's quad weak to rocks so if it's forced out by something it can have trouble coming back in. Unlike Lucario it only has one type of priority move. It can't go special. It has exactly one viable moveset, and that's Return/priority/Earthquake/Swords Dance. It's far more predictable and easy to handle than Lucario.
Charizard has the unpredictability factor of "is it X or Y" but once that's gone it's a lot easier to handle. Y-zard only has 100 base speed, and is walled by Blissey so it's again not an issue of butthurt smogon mods liking stall too much (Haunter is a HO player by the way.) Few things can switch into it and its STAB or coverage moves, but then again even fewer things can switch into Mega Medicham and no one has mentioned banning that. X-zard is a really good dragon dancer but does not have priority and is only 100 base speed so it is also pretty easy to revenge kill. Oh and both forms are weak to stealth rock.
Any other megas, like Mawile, have zero chance of being suspected or banned.
Oh, and thanks for making me copypasta this post from another anon, asshole.
