What's a good setup for Mega Banette? I was thinking:

Banette @ Banettite
Frisk (Prankster)
Brave Nature
>Destiny Bond
>Knock Off
>Will-O-Wisp/Disable
>Taunt

None too sure about the EVs though.

I've been playing around with a Calm Mind set with relative success, but I guess that's just because it wasn't expected.

Calm Mind
W-o-W
Shadow Ball
Dazzling Gleam

Sounds like a good set. Shadow Sneak is good attacking option for revenge killing. But two things to know about Mega Banette:

1. Prankster Destiny Bond + a Speed that usually makes Banette attack second = Destiny Bond starting at the beginning of Turn 1, and lasting until the end of Turn 2. Unavoidable unless you get taunted.

2. Prankster doesn't apply until you Mega-Evolve. Don't expect to go first on the ME turn.

I guess that's pretty good set due to coverage and the defenses obtain through Calm Mind and Will-O-Wisp but I'm aiming more towards an annoying set than anything else.

Yeah, I know about the Two Turn Destiny Bond which is why I have Knock Off there, so that in case they don't attack I not only deal some damage but get rid of their item.

No, that's not very expected.

I run

Shadow Sneak
Pain Split
Will-o-Wisp
Destiny Bond

Pain split is kinda redundant but at the the time the idea was to trick people into thinking I wanted to stay alive by using pain split then faking them out the last second with a destiny bond. Your set should work just fine though.

I use Brave 252 HP/252 Attack 0 speed IV. that way destiny bond will almost always be in effect the turn you attempt to attack with shadow claw.

Taunt
Sucker Punch
Destiny Bond
Shadow Claw

People get paranoid of destiny bond and try to stall out your PP by constantly switching - you can do some damage with shadow claw and finish things off with sucker punch.

Taunt is there to keep yourself from becoming set up bait as they try to drain your destiny bond PP or to prevent status.

I tried phantom force but the charge turn seriously cuts down on the damage you can deal on switch ins and Banette is too busy living on the edge to hide like a pussy

The only thing that kills it is the lack of first turn prankster

Have you seen this fucker's attack stat? At least give it shadow sneak for some easy revenge kills.

I pretty much ruined my Halloween Banette by making it Adamant and naming her RougueDon't judge me, we all went through that phase where we give our Pokémon bland, generic
nicknames.

Should've named her CumRag

if it only had some sort of recovery, it would be a really fine wall
>inb4 phazing, i know that whirlwind exists

Well, you could go Pain Split, sacrificing some coverage, but well, it's far from perfect solution

I think good tier is the weakest part of this image and it needs to be severely reworked. Move M-Medicham up to good tier and bring those two to Meh.

I lvoe using M-Banette but it has the worst 4MSS. I have one with Taunt/Protect/WoW/Destiny Bond for VGC support, & a more attacking set ofShadow Claw/Knock Off/Taunt/Destiny Bond for Singles. Just look at your team & see what moves it needs to support your team.

But remember, if you're not going to put Destiny Bond on it, you're better off using Sableye. No point using your Mega slot for something that's outclassed by a non_mega.
