aegislash is one of my favourite mons i've ever used in competitive. it was on two of my three worlds teams, with two completely different sets. it's so versatile. the mind game of king's shield as well feels like it always turns whatever your opponent wants to do into a 50/50 for them. like a passive sucker punch mind game. i can't agree more, aegislash is perfect.

Aegislash has to be one of my favorite pokemon of all time. It's so fun to use, one of my favorite gimmicks.

@lasercraft32 Год назад

Aegislash is such a cool Pokemon... Its so overpowered, but requires tactical knowledge of what you're actually doing in order to work right. If you don't know its playstyle and you give it a lot of speed you're just going to make it weaker. Alternatively, if you don't use your attacks carefully you leave yourself vulnerable. Its just so cool to me how it requires more thought than most other Pokemon to utilize all its strengths correctly instead of just maxing out speed and one of the attack stats and spamming powerful recoil moves with swords dance.

My first playthrough with sword and shield was basically Aegislash vs the game. Yeah it got nerfed for the competitive scene in Swsh. But it's the best sweeper in playthroughs. The fact that u get a honedge just after reaching hammerlocke in early game is insane. U get eviolite for doublade and then in the 4th gym, u get a dusk stone easily. And then, u have the 2nd most broken pokemon (1st being zacian) in swsh for playthroughs.

@danka1167 Год назад

Power creep mainly

@zackfaircc5624 Год назад

no pursuit means other ghost types, like blacephalon, gengar and dragapult were running around unchecked making it harder for aegislash to do his thing. not just that, but both urshifu forms were introduced and dark-shifu was dominating the meta for quite a long time. both these pokemon were able to go through protect (king's shield) with their signature ability and threaten aegislash in a way no other pokemon had been able to do in singles before. Combined with the reduced bulk and the existence of melmetal as a bulkier pokemon made it fall through the meta quite a bit while still being a very good pokemon

@@zackfaircc5624 Kingambit is one of the main pokemon I think makes Ghost spam not as easy to spam similar to what Yveltal was doing in Gen 8 Ubers. Gholdengo and Skeledirge are good not just because of Ghost STAB but their defensive utility similar to Gen 4 Giratina and Lunala

What would be really cool would be a regional variant that swapped between physical/ special (and possibly speed) based on the category of move it used (Physical/Special/Status). That way it would always have a weakness, and would encourage the use of mixed attackers to hit its weak side.

@KartonRealista2 Год назад

But it would also be an offensive monster. Always being able to hit hard, since it has both special and physical moves (it would banish Chansey/Blissey from any tier it was available in), with ridiculous stats in both physical and special attack. Not to mention, it would probably be it's own best counter, since it would be by far the most effective mixed attacker with its ability to swap stats. That's never a good thing

Pokemon Y was my very first pokemon game. I nearly flawlessly Greninja'd my way through the fighting type gym until Greninja didn't 1-shot Hawlucha. Hawlucha then proceeded to swords dance and sweep my entire team...except my seemingly unassuming Honedge. Because Hawlucha was sweeping me with fighting moves and Honedge is a ghost type, it was immune. This allowed me to fully build swords dances and 2 shot Hawlucha for the dub. From that point forward, Honedge/Doublade/Aegislash was one of my favorite, go-to Pokémon for battles and in general, and she hardcore carried my ass. The fact that it was the most OP Pokémon essentially ever makes me have even more respect for it.
