*Reserved, still editing it but posted by accident lol. Gonna finish it up with my thoughts.* So I've been playing OU a lot more lately since Kyurem-Black and Zygarde were banned from the tier, as it seems a lot more healthier and stable. Pheromosa is a pretty questionable Pokemon but I could...

I've been playing in this cluster hell of a meta for a fair bit now, obvious pointers are Pokemon like Volcarona, Victini, Gyarados etc. are just flat out broken. The interesting thing about Veil/Screens is I don't know truly whether it's the abusers that are the problem, or that Veil/Screens is...

Well we're finally here, things are about to get jacked up to 11 with all the legendary and almost all the mythical Pokemon coming back. Poor Hoopa and Manaphy, I'll miss you. Anyways, really excited 'cause this meta will push to more offensive builds even in more balanced style teams. I'm gonna...

So I want to take a moment to talk about Poliwrath and how it got one of the biggest glow ups in SwSh: Poliwrath @ Sitrus Berry / Salac Berry Jolly Nature Ability: Swift Swim EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe - Belly Drum - Liquidation - Close Combat - Earthquake / High Horsepower / Darkest Lariat...

Been playing a few games today now that Alolan Ninetales is gone (thank god, Aurora Veil was brainless with Ninetales), and honestly everything seems pretty dang healthy in tier. So I thought I drop some thoughts on certain mons, how they turned out from I originally thought: Funny enough I...

Wow, a lot of drops and notable rises in Hippowdon and Torkoal (which would have been a better sun-setter partner than Ninetales for Venusaur), gonna just drop some thoughts on how some of these will effect the meta. Sun is a menace in this tier now, originally only being abused by Shiftry...

Been playing a fair bit with a few mons while also getting a view how other mons function in this gen, I guess I'll start: I'm gonna be honest, I don't know if it's because I have a scarfer above base 95, Melmetal and/or defensive Toad (which at least two of those are almost on every team...

RU actually got obliterated from this tier-shift LMAO (rip RU players... :psycry:)

All of Ambipom's abilitys are pointless when running Return, Skill Link doesn't effect Double Hit and you cannot use 2-5 hit moves. Pickup doesn't do anything, so really the ability is just null.

Return/Frustration is pretty busted as a item choice, boosting lower power moves to base 102. This can be extremely powerful with priority or boosting moves such as Power-Up Punch but also increasing the power of coverage moves such the elemental punches and Hidden Power etc. Conkeldurr @...

Been awhile since I last nominated or just agreed/disagreed with one's nominations, but I've always been checking in every now again. I thought this time I would give verdict on the discussion points, as well as my own nomination: Cobalion [A -> A+] [Agree] - Cobalion to me still proves meta...

After reading your post about Clef, I'm going to retract my statement and actually agree for it to rise to S rank. I still do find Clefable is passive to more threats than Lando and Heatran, but like you said it's supportive capabilities is enough to push into S rank, just because how...

Zard Y from C+ to B (or B-) - Agreed I want emphasise many teams check to Zard Y right now, is either Mega Lati, Zygarde or Chansey. While Toxapex has been present, it hasn't had the iron grasp it once had due the prevalence of Pokemon such as Heatran (who can trap), Zygarde and Koko (who is...

On the topic of Alola-Wak, two of the drops benefit/help the Trick Room archetype. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Slowbro-Mega @ Slowbronite Ability: Regenerator EVs: 252 HP / 180 Def / 76 SpD Modest Nature IVs: 0 Atk / 0 Spe - Trick Room - Scald - Ice Beam - Slack Off...

I made a post on the Stage 7 regarding Mega Diancie, the only thing that changed from the previously wrong tier shifts is now that Serperior (An offensive check) is leaving. However, we get Mega Venusaur instead which handles Mega Diancie (lacking Psychic) really well. Diancie still suffers a...
