    firstly, it can learn TMs. secondly, when in UU tier play, it can be very helpful. you just got to know how to use it correctly, young padawan ;)

    Sorry i made a mistake i ment to say and it only can lern like one steel Tm not tms in General

    And at least ask first about weather I use it or not i do not anymore but i used to use it all the time in my Ruby saphphire or Emerald not Sure but i used it as a dark type pokemon and i think it have more potential as a dark not a steel

    Just because it would be better off as dark type doesn't mean it should be dark type. In my opinion it should be dark/steel. It makes sense that mawile is a steel type, so if it ever were to change type it would still be part steel.

    i think it's too cute to be a steel type, i thought it was a water type at first because it looked like a crocodile, well the thing on its head did at least which i actually thought was its head

    Mmkay, I am going to throw you off a cliff. >8(

    It has 50 HP, 85 Defense, and 55 Sp.Defense.

    Now call that high defenses. O_o;;

    Anyways...

    I never really got why Mawile was a Steel type. It's not like it's made of steel or anything, it looks more of a Normal or a Dark type.
    Oh and just to let you know, there aren't many Steel moves out there.

    It's 'cause the teeth in its mouth are modified horns that have qualities like steel...
    And that fake head of its is like a big steel hammer.

    Oh, and plus, its skin is made of steel too.

    Mawile is the only pure Steel type barring Registeel, leave it at that.

    Because Nintendo said so? But then again, I don't really see what else it would be, and more importantly, I don't really know why it actually matters. Movepools don't determine typing really; it's more the other way around (in general, but Mawile is one of those exceptions).
