Think he will be banned? I mean, a Bullet Punch from him will be nasty, especially after just a Sword Dance. An Agility set up will also be pretty nasty. However, he will most likely still fall to fire, dark, ghost, and ground.

Easy answer: Yes.
True answer: Not if smogon likes it, then it will be "not too overpowered if you can use its counters!"

if Smogon likes it, then it will be banned to Ubers where all the ones they like play.

From what I am seeing, unless it's a super jump in Atk stat, it may not be banned. A bullet punch with Tough Claws seems just as devastating as a Huge Power Aqua Jet after a Belly Drum, and that's not banned.

Eh, it doesn't even hit that hard.
From what information we have on it, its main boost is to its speed so we're looking at theoretically:

80
155
140
115
100
110

20 to both attacks, 10 to both defenses, rest in speed

>Landous-T + Staraptor + Gyara/Mawile
Its called IntimiTurn and it stops most Talonflames and Megas in their tracks because nothing can get off a physical hit.

The first two get U-Turn to switch around while hitting things with their above average speeds, and the third just cleans up the mess
