Mega Kang has pure counters

rofl copter at anyone countering Megagar.
True but Mega Gengar is not that cheap, the only reason he is getting banned is because of Shadow Tag. And whoever is behind these bans, just seem to reek of pure butt hurt. So I don't really know if they ban for the better of the game or for themselves, that being said inb4 Mega Lucario is banned before Mega Kang.

Mega Gengar makes it so easy to trap something it doesn't like, take it out and make a sweep easier for the rest of your team. With it's ridiculous base stats and stupid good move pool there isn't really much that is going to last more than two hits against him if he wants you dead. Not to mention his typing got even better this gen because of the fairy resistance/effectiveness. This Pokemon was worthy of the ban.

I used him one time... and simply would switch into anything it could kill and laughed. Fairies just drop dead. Other ghosts just drop dead. Its basically like switching into the AI.

What team are you currently running? Interested to see if you stuck with Goodra or not.
I am still sticking it out with Goodra, I am looking for a fairy to pair him up with though in case it comes across any dragons. Right now though I'm running a couple of teams that I just wanted to test out:


Greninja @Focus Sash Protean
Timid
Ice Beam
Spikes
Scald
Dark Pulse

Alakazam @Alakazite Magic Guard
Timid
Dazzling Gleam
Focus Blast
Shadow ball
Psyshock

Goodra @Assault Vest Gooey
Bold
Infestation
Fire Blast (Thinking of switching to thunder/thunderbolt though)
Dragon Pulse
Sludge Bomb

Ferrothorn @Rocky Helmet Iron Barbs
Serious (Haven't gotten around to breeding it still lol)
Iron Head
Power Whip
Protect
Gyro Ball

Talonflame @Sky Plate Gale Wings
Adamant
Brave Bird
Roost
Acrobatics
Flare Blitz

Aegislash @Leftovers Stance Change
King's Shield
Iron Head
Shadow Sneak
Swords Dance

That's what I'm running him with, but like I say I'm trying to find a fairy to throw in there that would benefit him, I'm thinking Azumarill.

That moment when someone comes back with very good answers and makes you a believer. Thanks Joker for the insight, I guess I was just upset one of my fav pokemon this gen got banned. Oh well working on a team built around Mega Abomasnow atm.

I'm not going to lie I wanted to run one too lol. He is way too fun, but he is broken as balls unfortunately lol. We can still use a good old sub set with black sludge though. :) I'm using that on my Mega Lucario team. I have yet to see anyone run that mega yet lol. How is he?

Mega Lucario is really good i think. Although he cant take a hit for shit.

I have yet to find a good set for Greninja. I don't think i have the thought process to use him properly..... but man that thing gets OHKO'd by a fart.
Yeah he can't take a hit to save his life. But a good thing about him is that he can adjust and make himself resistant to take the hits better with protean. I do it all the time against lead electrics with spikes lol. They can't touch me and I switch him out for something else lol. If I do get hit first I just take advantage of the sash and sacrifice him for the good of the team lol.

Mega Abomasnow is really good IMO he gets destroyed by sun teams however but he is bulky and hits very hard spec attk or attk wise, Idk lol he is one of my favs and I'm tired of using Mega Kang and with Mega Gengar banned it was between him and Mega Charizard Y. I'll get back to you when I get my team fully trained and breeded lol.
