I plan on picking up X or Y in the near future, my question is, is there any point to trying to battle online or am I fucked without Blaziken?

So what newcomers are good? At a glance I'd say Greninja, Aegislash, and Barbaracle are pretty beast.

Which Mega Evos are worth it? Please tell me Gengar, Ampharos, and Aggron are legit

Honestly if you want a SB-Blazikin, theres a million of us that will clone you one, when you get the game, just ask for a donation.

Are you implying that using SB-Blazikin isnt already practically cheating?

I'm far from good, but:

Mega Charizard, either one. X is physical, Y is special. Both are good.
Mega Mawile: Send in Mawile with Intimidate to lower your foe's attack, then mega-evolve to get huge power and destroy shit with STAB Play Rough. Jaws of Wife is pretty good.
Mega Gardevoir: Requires a transfered (or hacked) Gardevoir with Hyper Voice to really shine, but it's mega gets Pixilate which makes hyper voice hit like a fucking train.
Mega Lucario, Kangaskhan, and Blaziken: So broken Smogon banned them to ubers.

Ok... Blaziken I get because it's a monster that you can trolololol baton pass into another sweeper the moment things turn grim.

But why Lucario and Kangaskhan?

Lucario is a ridiculous powerhouse that can go either physical or special when it's mega. I can't quite remember how it was described . . . a parental bond terrakion with starmie's speed and ampharos strapped to it's back for special attack, or something similar. It's crazy good.

Mega-Kangaskhan can straight-up attack twice per turn. I'll let you figure it out from there.

Hyper voice is nothing compared to the rape train that is Echoed Voice my friend. Nothing.

Choice Specs Noivern with Draco Meteor/Hurricane/Focus Blast (I think he gets this)/Switcheroo might be neat for that 100% accurate STAB hurricane coming off 135 SpA. But then I have a soft spot for the cloud that dragons.

Takes longer to get going and is done better by Pixilate Sylveon holding a Metronome. Still a good suggestion though.

ive been training a Dragonite to get hurricane but so far when im forced to bring it out it sucks. so i might get a noivern but would a garchomp also be a good choice?

Garchomp is good but he'd be better on a sand team IMO.

An option to consider (and that I'm mentioning because I love the fucker) is Dry Skin Toxicroak. Have it hold black sludge and it'll recover . . . I think 12% of it's HP every turn in rain? Has a decent movepool too.

If you set it off on something it'll either take a chunk out of or they need to switch out on, then it is unstoppable. M-Garde has enough bulk to survive the 2nd/3rd attacks, and after that you beat anything. On the 4th or 5th Echoed Voice she OHKO'd a ferrothorn

I'd mention that, with the advent of Fairy types, poison jab is a lot more useful than it used to be. Unfortunately, you're now running into 4MSS - what do you lose for fairy coverage? STAB, priority, ground coverage, or swords dance?

>>18916920
Noted. Now I just gotta decide if I want to run her or my Mawile also a her.

I've seen mawile tear some teams up as well, guess it depends on the team. I fill steel with Aegislash personally

Keldeo, not Ampharos. And it's because you could literally put it in any team and it would shine, while at the same time having such a move set that it's nigh on impossible to predict what kind of sweeper it is until its too late.
