Let's be honest, boys. I think it's over. Mawile was never the most popular, but it had an easy way in by being THE steel/fairy. But now there's a 506 BST, 3 stage evolution Steel/Fairy that gets it's own signature move. A pink muppet with a mallet walked up & ate her lunch right in front of her fucking face. And now that Tinkaton has been confirmed as the #1 Paldean pokemon, I can't see her getting in again. Unless they do something drastic like bringing back megas.

I actually like Tinkaton, and honestly I wouldn't care if it wasn't for the fact that GF is too fucking cheap/lazy to add every goddamn pokemon. Now that there's competition just to get into a game, I'm worried for Mawile's chances.
