I've actually been playing more regularly and I just am not seeing how volc is this huge problem. There are quite a few pokemon (Chansey, Skele, Clodsire) you can place on your team that instantly take away any volc vulnerabilities your team may have, and if you are willing to prepare a two...

Don't really feel the need to write an essay or relate this to MLK or anything. Just ban it or don't. All the other caveats and alterations suggested are silly. Its either broken or it isn't. Smogon always shies away from complex bans and a lot of people are advocating for some complex ass...

dragapult is a iffy answer. Without band/specs it doesnt have the power to do anything vs the random walls you run into. I guess I can try life orb but the issue is cyc or grimm lead you dont really win. You can just shadow ball either recklessly and all it takes is one turn for shit to spiral...

Ladder above 1500 is so much fun. Nothing but shed tail/gholdengo/screens is there a core that blows this up? Getting tired of running into it and losing on MU turn one

Ahhhhh yup. thanks

Can someone explain to me how spore works on Garganacl? Shouldnt it be immune to all status moves?

I'm not finding AV treads to be a reliable spinner either. It takes damage on entry for one so its always going to be chipped. It has to come in on something that doesn't immediately threaten a 2hko which isn't a large list with the threats of the meta atm. You have to dodge, water, fire...

Beat it how? They cant switch in and if its on a balloon it makes it even harder for them. The problem is that it isnt even passive, youll have a sball coming back at you and what if the ghol teras into flying to dodge the EQ…its too much to play around.

The hazard situation is disgusting right now. No defogger can deal with Gholdengo reliably and its sooooooo easy to get up a few layers now. Like 4/6 of your team has to be on HDB or you just get ran over. gonna lead to a pretty homogenized meta imo

From my cursory games (around 20) this is a hilarious game already. I don't really have much to say about the obviously overtuned offensive mons but tera is really really silly. Its unhealthy imo because it adds something that you can't reliably play around. Is it really fine to ask a...

Climbed up to like top 25ish. Meta sans dynamax definitely rewards good plays and knowledge again. Darm is still a pest with no actual answers. Some of the things I think are good now Centriskorch - by far my fav thing to use atm. Its sp.def rest talk set is such an absolute pest to a lot of...

Ill probs get reqs if Im able to find the time to try again. Had a 79 gxe after 40 and was like well fuck, this is horrible. Ive reached top 10-25 on the OU ladder several times in most gens. I have never ever had such a horrid time trying to figure out the meta. Dynamaxing is by far the...

Shedinjas completely unviable right now. I looked through several of the teams I have and every member has a way to hit it SE. Nvm ttar is on every team and court change exists making even old magic bounce strats obsolete for it. I cant see how would be able to function at all. Its not nearly...

Lol so what if the hawlucha player pairs him with gyra (which is common) who destroys aegislash. Or what if Hawlucha runs fpunch (unoptimal but an option). Its not really healthy to have things this centralizing, that can also circumvent their supposed counters anyway. Usually you could easily...

LOL what ladder are you playing and whats your ranking atm. Hardly amazing ranking wise but 80 gxe in a relatively new meta shows I at least know what Im doing. Its definitely the prevalent team build. Its either that or some fat shit that gets 6-0 by anything that can setup behind a sub...
