At least with Bronzong you can play mind games and have one with Heatproof and just have people assume it has Levitate, they'd be 2spookied to try a ground move.

Boomburst was a blessing and ORAS gave Heat Wave back to it which it couldn't have together in XY.

Crobat deserves gale wings. When golbat evolves, more than half his BST increase is put into speed alone. He has absolutely no other stand out or relevant qualities, he's fast flying type: the pokemon. Unlike talonflame he doesn't have any physical boosting moves or a usable second stab, just give him his fucking sanic brave birds.

Fuck no. Crobat would be OP with that shit. Defensive Talonflame is common, I can only imagine how annoying priority roost Crobat would be. You wouldn't have to put EVs in Speed and just dump everything in HP and defense.

Crobat doesn't get bulk up, and despite gale wings, curse's speed drop would still negatively impact Crobat by preventing it from getting fast taunts off. Also it unlike talonflame can be burned, doesn't have swords dance, a complete shit second stab, no will o wisp, it's missing a ton of what makes talonflame good and only has 9 more points in attack to compensate.

MHeracross have enough power under its belt anyway. I like that MHeracross is a side grade instead of a direct upgrade, you can use both anyway since they have different play styles.

Heracross is my favorite Pokémon and I'm very pleased with its Mega, my favored Mega is Aerodactyl but MHeracross is alright, at least for me.

I used to do that a lot in gen v showdown. People just assumed you'd be using Levitate and never used ground moves on him. Fire moves were weaker but people rarely caught on. A shame that you couldn't switch into any ground moves though.
