haha yes it’s UU but a sub/nasty plot ver CAN bump it back up to OU status. Also garchomp is banned to Ubers so yeah Sala has gained the spotlight (also since Outrage/DD made it superior to D nite) and people use Flygon for a ground/dragon substitute
Smogon totally rearranged the tiers sometime back, lots of pokemon that were seemingly BL got lowered to UU. I guess they felt that they needed more emphasis on just what is (or should be) BL and weeded out the rest.
When Salamence got Outrage, there’s was just no hope for Dragonite. Still, I’m glad Dragonite is getting these upgrades. It brings diversity to the metagame.
even then, salamence will still be preferred over dragonite i’m assuming. i guess it would be a good lategame sweeper, when all of his counters have been weakened or killed.
sup nate! yeah mismagius got bumped down to UU a while ago i think but nasty plot could probably give it that oomph it needs to be back to OU status…and garchomp ain’t coming back lol even though i think it should be OU. imo he can’t really compete in ubers but i guess he would be in a tier of his own then.
yeah I was hoping for all new move tutors but not surprising Gamefreak decided to just rehash crap and add in 15 new ones with only maybe 3-4 actually being useful
I am aware of that, but seeing how they created Ice Shard and other priority attacks as tutor moves they seem to be at least aware of the prevalence of these aggro speedsters dominating the metagame somewhat.
crosses fingers I’m still doubtful at this point though. I hope they at least revamped Defog so it makes FREAKIN’ SENSE!!!:annoy:
Don’t underestimate the redonkulousness of a Torrented, Life Orbed, STAB, Swords Danced, Rain Danced, Aqua Jet from Feraligatr Monfernoman!
I hope they really got specific with the Pokemon that can learn Super Fang, I really don’t like the idea of Gliscors raping every potential counter + Stealth Rock.
Crobat can learn it tho. <3:shy:
lol They gave Corphish Dragon Dance (yeah uh wtf?) and Flareon still has to use Fire Fang as his strongest physical Fire attack. Oh Gamefreak, will your ridiculous bias ever cease?
Here’s hope for Head Smash/Brave Bird Aerodactyl w/ Rock Head trait! ZEHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!! :devil::badboy:
STRING SHOT move tutor is just useless, I mean it makes no sense. Who’s gonna do that? Who’s idea was it to say “oh there needs to be a STRING SHOT tutor” out of hundreds of potentially better pkmn moves?!
Flareon just pisses me off. Gamefreak cares nothing for this pokemon, he’s been getting fucked over since R/B.
I’ll be playing because I care about pkmn that much :bgrin:
I’m just tired of GF being so lazy and coming up with the stupidest ideas sometimes. Every G they do some things right, and some bad. There’s no true consistency, some of our favorite pkmn are still getting screwed from decades ago.
Shallots came to me in a dream…
Running Jolly over Adament? That was also part of the dream…
And I accept your challenge if you’re still there, I was playing TF2.
Just going to slap random Pokemon that I hope will work together and call it a team again.
