    I would say C- Rank for Donphan. It has a niche, bit it's still outclassed and generally not very good outside of Assault Vest bulky spinner. Also seconding the notion of Blacklisting it once a tier is decided.

    ErMaGerd... This is what, the fourth time that Donphan has been brought up? It's C rank at best, totally outclassed in everything notable it can do by other Pokémon. If Donphan is the best fit on your team for a bulky hazard remover, you might want to tweak your team some.

    I know he's amazing, his Fire Blasts hit like a nuclear warhead and I use one on my cartridge team. I figured Xzard would make S-tier for obvious reasons, but I wasn't expecting to see Yzard go past +A without discussion. That's all I was looking for, people go ON and ON about SR weakness, but...

    I really can't agree with Yzard being S rank. I love Charizard, and while Yzard is a great self-sufficient wallbreaker and general nuker, it's not on the same level as Aegislash, Pinsir, or the current round of suspects. If someone would like to elaborate (I haven't seen any real discussion on...

    Discussion aside, turn down the flamethrower. Just because you're a Moderator doesn't give you a free pass to act like a jerkoff.

    Salamence is not a Mega Pokémon, nor does it carry base Charizard's x4 SR weakness. Who the hell goes mixed with ZardX? Nobody, it's a waste of the ability that makes it good in the first place or screws your coverage options. Salamence is not a Mega Pokémon, is faster than MegaChomp, and has...

    B tier is what everyone (myself included) has been suggesting for a long time now, prior to the Mega Venasaur borefest. The few people saying it's completely outclassed (thus C) have been referring only to DD sets, which is not the only effective usable set. Salamence has a usable niche' and can...

    If it's so god damn horrible, why did you nominate it for -A/B+ not four pages ago? And by extension everything else in those tiers "fucking sucks" too... Right then. LO MixMence is one of the most offensively threatening mixed dragon attacker besides Weakness Policy Dragonite. Garchomps...

    Without Aegislash, we wouldn't even be discussing Ghosts. Gengar is good and always has been, but even 252+ SpA Gengar isn't nearly as offensively powerful as LO SpA Aegislash or even half as durable. Dragons are still good, but the mix between the few relevant fairys, the high popularity of...

    Not really Metagross just got nerfed really really hard, while Haxorus is too one-dimensional & frail with the introduction of fairy. As for the rest of the game, it's strange times when Charizard is a big threat that needs to be accounted for.

    The overwhelming majority of Smogon disagrees with you. Lugia & Giratina can't even wall Mega Khan, and what does that say about things like Gliscor, Skarmory, and Ferrothorn? It was/is "broken as all shit" and desperately needed to GTFO of OU.
