The only advantages Mega Mawile has are
>Access to Sucker Punch (which does matter against Calyrex-S)>Focus Punch that ends up being stronger than Close Combat>Stronger Sword Dance+2 252+ Atk Huge Power Mawile-Mega Play Rough vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Abomasnow: 705-829 (219.6 - 258.2%) -- guaranteed OHKO

>Better match-up against Quagsire and Pyukumuku>Gets to intimidate an opponent before Mega Evolving>Isn’t wrecked as hard by DittoKeep in mind Mega Mawile was already a scary Pokemon to go up against and was a Mega, so you didn’t have its bulk (that’s worse than Zacian’s btw) when switching in and it was incredibly slow, and was in a much more powercreep game.
