Mega mawile's attack stat is equivalent to base 259, not 210, because the additional stat points from EVs get doubled too

[@adampozzobon5193]

As long as it's invested in EVs, which is usually pretty difficult during an in-game playthrough, yeah Although it's always important to let people know to feed their Proteins to their huge power pokemon!

[@turkoositerapsidi]

Koffing comes along with her gas and uses will'o wisp. "Hello there buddy."

[@altercard5389]

​@@adampozzobon5193don't the games with mega mawile have the training minigames for evs? So you'd just grind them until you had the evs you wanted.

[@tonberry2670]

Every single time someone mentions Huge Power, they completely forget how base stats actually work. It doesn't give Mawile an attack stat of 210. It gives Mawile a number equivalent to 258.

[@turkoositerapsidi]

Huge power is all fun and games until koffing or weezing shows up with odd gas.

[@anthonyk3952]

Exactly. Every single stat multiplier in the game both ability and move (Huge Power, Swords Dance, Growl, Tailwind, etc.) multiplies the actual numerical stat itself, not the base stat, letting you get some insane RoI and double dipping value since natures and EVs also effectively have their values influenced as well.

[@broidkanymore-zc4lt]

MAWILE SUPREMACY 🗣️🔊🔊🔊🔥🔥🔥💥

[@Raven0091]

You know it

[@Yang.Destiny]

Im here

[@cis22]

I love the fact that Marnie got a Mawile in Pokémon Masters. Since it's typical to always associate trainers with their type specialties, I never realized how perfect of a combination Marnie and Mawile are. They are opposites of each other. Marnie looks cold and intimidating, but she actually wants to work on being more grateful for everyone supporting her. Meanwhile, Mawile uses their cuteness to lure you to their chompers. When Steven got paired with Alolan Sandslash for a summer event years ago, I was worried that Pokémon Masters might get weird when it starts introducing combinations of pokémon and trainers that don't align with what's canon in the main series games. But I'm glad they rarely ever miss with the pairings. I think the only one I'm still trying to get used to is Wallace being paired with Blacephalon. That was so out of left field in my opinion.

[@jakalder]

Well both Wallace and Blacephalon put on shows, yeah?

[@coffee-ouji]

I love Mawile. It's design being really girly but badass at the same time is what really drew me when i was a kid playing emerald in my gba emulator and ever since i wanted one in every team i made every playthrough together with Azumarill and Aggron I also LOVE the mega version bc it really communicates that idea that it's wearing a shrine maiden outfit, y'know with the dark, pleated pants and the pigtails are just

[@Pownchao]

Been a Mawile enjoyer since gen 3. Adding the Fairy type only solidified my love for it! Mawile was also what introduced me into the concept of yokais, and diving into the design concepts of Pokémon became an even larger fascination after that. Glad to have found more people online that love the little Pokémon.

[@coffee-ouji]

ME TOO it's because of Mawile I've become really interested in yokais and inspirations behind other pokémon

[@staydetermined6717]

Yoooo, I really do think ya would like Yokai watch then

[@Jetfox967]

I could see Mawile and Tinkaton being friends since they are both cute and powerful.

I've always loved Mawile. Gen 3 bias aside, it's got a neat and adorable design with a sick reference to a Japanese legend. One of my favorite Pokémon 🙏

[@Wheaty03]

mega mawile should've just been mawile's regular evolution. i always find it so weird when pokemon, a series about evolving your little guys to make them stronger, has pokemon that just don't evolve

[@turkoositerapsidi]

Not every Pokémon needs to be evolving in my opinion, but at least unevolving ones should be quite strong naturally.

[@tigerlover2853]

The thing is with giving Mawile an evolution is that they’d have to give Sableye one too, since they’re rivals.

[@Boney_Paladin]

@@tigerlover2853 I see this as a win-win situation tbh

[@delphoxhoopa7289]

I have fond memories of needing a Fairy-Type Pokemon in my first playthrough of Omega Ruby, and just happened to find Mawile in Granite Cave. I caught her, expecting not to keep it on my team long term, only for her to impress me with her incredible endurance and strength, whether she was in her Mega Form or not. She's currently still in the cartridge along with my other team members, but I hope she'll be compatible with Legends ZA so she can have another adventure after almost seven years. Until then, I'll be collecting Ribbons with her, so she'll always have a memento of where she came from when I eventually transfer her to Home.

[@KosmoZer0]

I will say that Mawile never appealed to me in the older games but after your video I think i have a new appreciation for it and if it returns in ZA- I am willing to give it another chance definitely. I also think being Fairy/Steel is by far the most broken type combo you could get offensively and defensively but when we had Zacian (and even more recently Tinkaton) came into the picture, no one really considered Mawile as a possible contender or even as a spot on most people's team. On another note, my username wasn't on the listing of the Great Gators cuz I ordered a new card and was late on the sub so my bad on that but I appreciate the shout-out so thanks Gator. Keep up the great work.

[@GatorEX]

I’m honestly surprised just how many Steel / Fairy types we ended up getting.

Huge Power doesn't double the base stat but rather the stat number itself.

[@DmasterNProductions]

Mawile has always been one of my favorites~ Also surprised you didn't mention that some of Gen 7's Pokedex entries imply that the supposed "steel horns" actually is a second mouth.

[@JD-iu6rv]

I’ve always liked Mawile for being a steel type. When she got the fairy type and mega in Gen 6 it was super fun using her on a team

[@TearfulZorua]

The og version of that meme was "stop posting about among us"

[@rockowlgamer631]

I really wish Mawile would get a proper evolution to make up for losing its mega form. One idea I had is that since now that Zacian is the more offensive Steel/Fairy, why not make Mawile's evolution the more bulky Steel/Fairy type? Maybe bump its lack luster 380 BST to maybe about 540? Same thing both Gyarados and Milotic have for BST totals. Could also do that for Sableye as well. Here's Mawile's evolution stat spread suggestion. Slightly slower for trick room teams with good bulk and moderate 100 attack, maybe give it Body Press, and some other good necessary moves for this to work. Hp- 100 Atk- 100 Def- 105 SpAtk- 40 SpDef- 105 Speed- 30 What do you think GatorEX? Now obviously we could go for a Zacian/mega mawile lite version if you don't like stall tactics. Or even possible going for full support if need be? All I know is that I wish Mawile AND Sableye would get some justice for losing their megas.

[@Frenzy_Ice]

I’ve always liked mawile, even more than Tinkaton

[@soyalexpop]

Also Mawile mega evolution is one that they could’ve retconned as Mawile’s regular evolution

Glad to see some Mawile appreciation after so long. Its design is part of what makes Gen 3 Pokémon feel so compelling and original.

[@ElPikminMaster]

Mawile became one of my favorite Pokemon mainly because it was my first shiny that didn't involve the Lake of Rage. I still remember it was in the last floor of the Sky Pillar before the roof sometime during 2003 or 2004, before FRLG released. I still have it in HOME to this day, named SHINY 1.

[@fortnitesexman]

damn, could've atleast given it a better name lol

[@bolladragon]

Oh, Mawile’s always been a personal favorite

[@bvd_vlvd]

It's always been so funny to me that they keep calling it MAWHILE in the dex Fantastic pokemon by the way, it's probably around top 100 to me which sounds pathetic until you remember there's over 1000 of those fellas. That's essentially 9/10. Very cute; very valid

[@vreeze33]

I was a sableye enjoyer myself. I figured out it was a free win against Brawley as a kid so I often caught one just to beat him.

[@swagkirby3449]

We actually have old family home movies where in the background you can hear me watching the Once in a Mawile episode. One of my favorites as a kid

[@powerbolt7508]

3:35 huge power actually doubles your attack stat and not the base attack, I dont remember mawiles exact numbers but its closer to 600 than 210

[@laveragegamer6000]

I feel like people focus on Mawile's cute appearance way more than the devious jaw that won't hesitate to bite. I guess you could say its plan would work.

[@gioanysgonzalez3396]

Mawile is easily one of my favorite steel types in the series. I remember using one my Ultra Moon team and it was surprisingly very helpful thanks to its intimidate ability and typing. Let me just say intimidate + Stockpile is incredibly useful!

[@mysteriousmog51]

I love Mawhile it is my 2nd favourite steel type and also my 3rd favourite fairy type (I love Durant it is such an amazing Pokémon) (also Whimsicot and Togetic I do love quite a bit) it is quite a shame how people get wielded out when I say I like this Pokémon and I might have a clue why... I really am looking forward to it's return in Legends ZA.

[@fortnitesexman]

oh? do you mean to imply you too want to tie her down and breed her for hours on end? or am i misreading something here

[@Taijirai]

My biggest problem with Mawile was that it was too below average, the Steel type couldnt carry the poor HP and Sp.Def. Even the eventual Fairy typing wasn't a big help, the Mega is what saved it. It'll probably make a big comeback during Legends Z-A. Here's hoping!

[@sebmendoza15]

mawile has always been my favorite pokemon and even I was surprised with all this sudden posting about it

[@VampPhoenix99]

Mawile is one of my all-time favourite Pokémon. I didn't play gen 3 and I haven't watched the anime, I think I just found one in XY and thought it was baller. I never even knew about it as a pure-Steel Pokémon lmao.

[@FrostGallade]

Mawile is definitely one of my favourite Pokemon. Especially in Gen 6 where it's Mega Evolution is busted. I've never really used it any other gen though because it has the very low base stat total of 380... That is lower than most early game bug types like Butterfree and Dustox. Additionally in Gen 3 it doesn't learn a single Steel Type attack aside from maybe Steel Hidden Power, but then you'd have to get lucky. I really should use it again at some point in a Generation that isn't Gen 6.

[@nuclearpzn]

Mawile was always a bit of an elusive Pokemon for me during my Childhood because I grew up with Sapphire, and I always thought Mawile was super cool. Over time I definitely started to like it more and more and someday I might actually use it on a team! I don't care if base Mawile's stats are garbage, I used Delcatty on a team before and had it be of use, I can definitely take advantage of Mawile's strengths lol. Also Mega Mawile is awesome and one of the best Megas ever.

[@laurentritton3106]

Mawile’s my favourite Pokemon and I try to include her on every team whenever possible, I also had several Mawile centric TCG decks over the years

[@LegendofKal]

I never played gens 2-5, so after picking up X to see what all had changed and what new pokemon there were to see, imagine my surprise when I was spelunking on one of the side routes by Grant's gym and I eventually ran into this adorable bugger! As soon as I saw it, I fell in love with it, and made absolutely sure not to fuck up trying to catch it. Unfortunately, since I had X, I couldn't experience the splendor of Mega Mawile, whoch I found out after the fact. By the time SwSh came around, I was riding the memes of the Scottish Trainer, and figured why not jump in again. Sure enough, I encountered aa Mawile in a Raid Den, and added it to my core team, using a combination of stat-lowering berries and EV training through PokeJobs to make it a defensive powerhouse! Couple that with its low speed and Counter as a move and I was sweeping NPC teams left and right!

[@darkell8654]

Since a Mawile carried my original Sun nuzlocke it has become my favorite pokemon. Now i'm the head of Mawile propaganda in EWGF's server and i planned to beat all the games i own where it is available only using it (Sword is done, next in Sun then Ultra Sun). Good to see many people agrees to its supremacy as the superior Steel/Fairy.

[@Lucario1121]

I didn't even realize till awhile after playing gen 4 that the teeth looking thing was actually her backside and tail, not her front facing face.

[@MommyKami.]

Mawile is my favorite pokemon without a doubt, but before it was indifferent, I started to like it because in a hack room you can catch her very early in the game and most of the important boss fights were dragon type pokemons or they were physical attackers, in addition to having typing advantage, the intimidate skill was very good and to make it even better you could get her mega stone very early in the game and training her EVS correctly at level 100 without being mega evolved she had 294 and her IVS was 30 (detail this Mawile was a wild pokemon that I captured and it was my first run, I'm so lucky lol) and mega evolved she had 338 without huge power not to mention she has an excellent movepool so in short MAWILE SUPREMACY!!!!

[@CosmicCorviknight]

As a Gen 3 Sapphire player Mawile unfortunately just kinda passed me by and I don't think I've ever actually used one in battle in any Gen. I think I need to give it a chance if it comes back with its Mega form though as Mawile does seem to balance being very cute yet utterly badass very well, which is kinda rare for most Pokémon

[@cobrachicken1869]

I went and got myself a shiny one in Ultra Sun cause I think it's adorable. It's currently on my battle tree team. Don't have a switch so I don't get to enjoy it in the later generations but that's OK. I'd miss my mega Mawile.

[@castform7]

I always really liked Mawile. It was just a little dude with a giant mouth. I actually think the front sprite is great with it keeping most of Mawile hidden until you catch it. I feel like the main reason it's thrown to the wayside are those abysmal stats. Non Mega Mawile is not doing anything which is why I like that it got one. I honestly wished they toned it down and just made it a regular evolution cause it's one of the Megas that feel the least like "the Pokemon but more".

[@aknight7642]

Remember everyone, *don’t* listen to the gen 7 Pokédex. It’s hella biased.
