>>20660028But mawile has Intimidate and Hyper Cutter, the best defensive typing in the game, Immunity to Toxic, immunity to dragon, no x4 weakness and is in fact only weak to Fire and Ground, and above all, has access to Sucker Punch.
If Mega Heracross had a priority move like Sucker Punch or Aqua Jet it would be banned in a heartbeat.
Think about it.
Blaziken has Speed Boost (in addition to SD and BP) and near Flawless STAB coverage.
Gengar has 150 base Speed and immunity to fighting.
Mawile and Kangaskhan both have Sucker Punch.
Aegislash has immunity to toxic allowing it to stall or play mindgames with King Shield/switching out, ghost typing making it immune to fighting/return/fake out. And it has priority STAB
Swagger was banned because of Deoxys-D, but its main user has the same typing as Mawile and Prankster
Thundurus-I has prankster which is the main reason people want it banned
Literally no one uses Flame Body Talonflame even though its so fast already
They're all incredibly fast, except for the Steel/Fairy types which have Prankster. Priority dominates this meta, if you dont have it you cant win. Medicham-M's success in OU is because of that Pure Power Fake Out and how ludicrously strong HJK is if it doesnt miss.
