Tickles:
I have an Agieslash on my game that does really well in battles. It is more of a late game, but I favored Swords dance over King's shield, since most people try to use a set up when it's out anyway, then prio STAB things to death with Shadow Sneak. Slower pokes take a huge hit from Iron head, and normal types get owned by Sacred Sword. Like I said, it's a great late game sweeper, but even early game it can take out some of the more frail sweepers for you so you can mop up with your best sweeper, or bring out a more bulky pokemon for some easy set-ups. I don't see it as a niche poke, you just have to make its ability work for you, and decide, should I go pivot offense defense, straight offense, or straight defense. Straight offense seems to work our pretty well, going to hatch a new one and try to make a defensive set.

Chad29:
I'm glad some poeple have hope for it. How's your group been doing, Cortex J?

Tickles:
We're doing well. Not much going on now. I can't seem to really find anyone to get a guild event going.

Noah_Road:
Just saw someone completely decimate with Aegislash. I am now changing my opinion on it. As long as Aegislash does not use Kings Sheild and makes use of its 150 Sp.Atk stat with its 150 Atk stat, it is actually one of the best pivots in gen 6. Someone should try this set!

- Shadow Ball
- Iron Head

- Shadow Sneak

Aegislash takes full advantage of Steel Types losing their resistance to Ghost. Aegislash actually OHKO's standard CB Scizor with Shadow Ball (mega Scizor still laughs at it and sets up XD). The combination of Shadow Ball + Shadow Sneak 1-2HKO's a ton of threats that wall the Swords Dance set o.o I might have to try to use this mixed Aegislash in-game.

Clefable will probably be my signature Pokemon. This thing is super bulky with its mono-Fairy typing. It takes a Bullet Punch from a mega Scizor and a Sludge Bomb from mega Gengar after a Calm Mind boost and destroys both of them! I've been running Magic Guard to avoid status and entry hazards. However, set up sweepers seem to be much more of a threat in the PU meta so Unaware might be the better ability. What do you guys think?

P.S. Mega Gyarados needs Crunch. Badly.

Chad29:
Did they not even give him crunch when they decided on having him be part dark? That's just insult to injury.

The move that's supposed to make up for Aegislash's pitiful defense and speed, and the recommendation is to just forgo it. I never liked combining low defenses and low speed.

Clefable is pretty boss!
