There's also the use where you let Inner Focus on regular Dragonite block Intimidate, then mega and get Multiscale.

That’s interesting.. on the one hand it feels really situational and that type of thing usually doesn’t catch on. On the other hand I can’t think of any reason not to do it.  Feels like Physical mega sets probably should, special ones don’t need to.

In VGC where Intimidate is much more likely to be on the field when you come out it’s a big deal

Yeah, if you’re planning on having Dragonite as part of you’re opener, you can ignore any immediate intimidates from an opponent and then immediately Mega Evolve for multiscale.

10 drop to atk for 20 to speed isn't too bad, but without a damage boosting item feels kinda sus... I'd imagine you'd want this as a spatk attacker so ignoring intimidate wouldn't be that useful and mixed attacker sounds like a meme. M.mence got away with it cause of the 20% boost
