2.) Pinsir doesn't suck.
ENDORSE.

Anyway, both have their differences. Electivire is more common because he can wipe out a majority of the OU Metagame without breaking a sweat. Now if it weren't for the fact that he had Motor Drive, he'd probably be a Low Tier OU like Magmortar is.

Magmortar is meant for Sp. Attacking, but what puts him at a disadvantage is that the scarf must be used at all times, unless one actually settles with running with only 291 Speed, while everyone else has 300+.

Also, Spikes always does a set amount of damage depending on the layers set out (Max 3). It doesn't have a Super-Effective damage deal like Stealth Rock has.

I think I just went blind from reading all those spelling mistakes
But anyways Electivire for the win, Magmortar isnt the best special sweeper lack of speed and semi low special attack, the reason I like Electivire is because of the annoying ability and having such awesome type coverage from its moves

Magmortar's Sp. Attack is superior imo. 125 Base is something that isn't common these days. His Speed is just the main problem.
