Oh yeah, I just do super singles. I had thought though that that was a bug at first. IMO, they leave it to allow the players whom don't EV, IV or get the right nature/ability players a shot at all the megadtones and whatnot, at a much slower rate of course.
On emerald back in the day when I was hella young, I had no idea about that shit and wondered why my adamant blissey with -700HP couldn't one hit and with stand everything, instead going down in one hit. Lol. Good times.
I remember the first time i used EVs/IVs. I somehow managed to breed a nearly perfect gyarados.It was funny, because he was one-shotting foes my other pokemon, twice his level, were barely dealing slivers. Good times, good times.
I still have that gyarados, I'm trying to get gyaradosite for it-turns out I somehow don't have any. That could be crazy.

I've never really used mega Gyarados but seen him in battle a handful of times. I can't imagine he's that much better, aside from stats. What's your other team like with him? Might be best to place your one mega per battle, elsewhere.
I'd recommend a counter. Grass, electric, or is he dragon? moves could break him as his base def, spdef and hp aren't too impressive. Something fire or ground might be nice alongside him.

Gotta say I'm liking Excadrill so far, nice movepool/speed/attack/abilities
which ability do you prefer on it? i'm a sand rush fan but mold breaker is great too.
Sand Rush, especially if it's a sandstorm and a choice banded/swords dance Excadrill.
200m Dunge, Rc, Mage and invention accomplished, + 120 Constitution/Slayer/Range/Summoning/Woodcutting/Mining/Defence/Strength and 110m fishing, got comp/MQC and 200m Fishing/Woodcutting/Mining as well as 120 herb/Farming/Cooking most 120s just Agility, Theiving, Hunter and Prayer left
Banded Excadrill is what I want to get on Ultra Moon after finishing up the main story on Black 2/Diamond (might buy Platinum at some point
)

Wonder what attacks we'll get in Sword/Shield

Could work, if I get them to all a decentish level at the Battle Tree on Ultra Moon
200m Dunge, Rc, Mage and invention accomplished, + 120 Constitution/Slayer/Range/Summoning/Woodcutting/Mining/Defence/Strength and 110m fishing, got comp/MQC and 200m Fishing/Woodcutting/Mining as well as 120 herb/Farming/Cooking most 120s just Agility, Theiving, Hunter and Prayer left
Finally got an Excadrill in Ultra Moon
once his EVS are maxed out (he's Jolly Nature) in Attack and Speed I think I'll choice band him and team him with Tyranitar
(gotta love Pokemon Showdown for testing this stuff!)

How do you get into a competition? I looked at the Online Competition menu and it says "Receive via infrared" and "Receive via QR Code". I've never seen a QR code anywhere, unless it's something you find on the Pokemon website?
My guess would be online or maybe even in person at one of the tournaments. I've never really played competitive, although I've been getting more and more interested.

Pokemon Showdown is a good place to start, just make a team and battle to learn about the general meta
