Is talonflame, mega khang, sablye and others kill in gen 7?

Talonflame can just run U-Turn more often to predict the Bruxish switch (other Pokemon may get the ability and do it better though) I doubt M-Kangaskhan is going to have a viable counter so it'll still be good. Do we know if Bruxish can stop status moves with priority yet?

Pretty sure it does

>The Dazzling Ability prevents opponents from using priority moves that normally strike first.

So sableye would be fucked. It would be even more frightening if it could be used in doubles, and then no priority moves would be effective against whatever team bruxish is on.

Well either way, team preview tells you their team has a Bruxish, and that Bruxish is going to eat a Foul Play or Knock Off on the switch. If more Pokemon get Dazzling, M-Sableye will just see more use. It's a good ability, but I don't see it killing off these Pokemon.

You also gotta consider this, is Bruxish gonna be the only Pokemon getting Dazzling? Cause if something like fucking Starmie gets or a wall gets it imagine that.

Why? Bruxfish?
Depending on how Dazzling works, we don't know if it outright blocks Brave Birds or if it just removed the priority.
Even if it does, though, Bruxfish will probably have shitty BST and its typing does it no real favours. I can think of several OU mons who can probably wall it.
And Sableye still has Knock Off, M-Kanga can probably OHKO it with 1.5x Return and Talonflame has U-Turn.

Other Pokemon absolutely could get it, but Starmie isn't a Pokemon that can safely switch in on a Sableye and not wallers will want to switch in and lose their item.

The trailer literally shows Pikachu's Quick Attack negated against Bruxish. It outright stops the attack.

You're still basing this off assumption. It may very well ignore abilities based off that verbiage. Semantics can cut both ways.
