@0kamii Ooh, I've been playing VGC18 quite a bit now, and I think I'd better put in my two cents...
I think Gardevoir in A- is a little too high, its only on about 3% of all teams, it has a lot of common checks (Heatran, Aegislash, Tyranitar, to name a few), and its outclassed by other Psychic types like Lele and Cresselia. Also, its Mega is the only one really used, so the sprite should probably be changed. Maybe B or B-.
Hydregion should also be dropped, its on even fewer teams than Gardevoir. It has some highlights in stats and movesets, but useage can drop a mons viability. I say B.
I also feel the same way about Conkeldurr, Mawile, Swampert, and Gengar. Just not used enough, and have checks/are too glassy/are a waste of a Mega stone/are too situational, ect.
Thank you!
