High-firepower meta Pokémon that hit it super-effectively by type (estimated, not battle data)
Based on real ladder matchup statistics and expert community assessments (data snapshot 2026-06)
Base Mawile is largely unviable, but Mega Mawile's Huge Power catapults it into the highest Attack bracket in the format. With Sucker Punch priority and excellent Steel/Fairy defensive typing, it carves out a genuine Trick Room niche — though it needs that support to function at all.
Playstyle:Post-Mega, effective Attack is around 170, enough to OHKO most targets with a super-effective Play Rough or Iron Head. Sucker Punch patches the crippling 50 Speed, hitting 90 base power priority after EVs. Standard gameplan: set Trick Room first, then use Mawile as a breaker; or tech Swords Dance for a one-turn nuke gamble. Item: Mawilite. Moves: Play Rough / Iron Head / Sucker Punch / Fire Fang or Ice Fang.
In doubles, Mega Mawile is a quintessential Trick Room attacker: Huge Power gives it one of the highest effective Attacks in the format, and its Steel/Fairy typing provides key immunities that let it sit safely on the field. Paired with a Trick Room setter like Grimmsnarl for screens, it becomes a genuine top-tier threat once the board state is set.
Playstyle:Standard setup: Grimmsnarl leads to put up screens while a Trick Room setter (often a partner) flips speed; Mawile cleans up. Run minimum Speed EVs (or 0 IVs) to move first under Trick Room. Moves: Play Rough for Dragon/Dark, Iron Head for Fairy checks, Sucker Punch for emergency priority after TR ends, Fire Fang or Ice Fang for coverage. Item: Mawilite.
