How would you make Mega Salamence useful outside of doubles? Because as megas like Alakazam have taught us, just boosting its stats don't cut it from a competitive standpoint.

Just having a mega would give it a usability boost in the fact it gets Intimidate + another ability like Gyarados and Mawile. Also if Mence gets a boost of even 5 points in speed it has a serious advantage over Chomp and Char-X and while M-Latios will be a much better mixed sweeper for the day or so it's unbanned M-Salamence would be able to step into that role and become a top tier threat.

You people don't realize what this would do. I mean, Gale Wings turned Talonflame, an otherwise shitty regional bird, into an OU mega-threat. Talonflame's stats fucking blow... but it's still in the top five most used gen six Pokemon.

Doing that for a Pokemon with great stats would annihilate the meta.

What, you think they wouldn't edit its move list to accompany its ability? I guarantee it would get some ridiculous shit like Hurricane just to complete the troll.

In my defense, Honedge/Doublade and Pangoro get no moves to compliment their abilities.

Mega Zam sucks because they took away Magic Guard, one of the best abilities in the game. A Salamence with a straight stat boost would be very good, especially if the speed is improved
