I'm in favor of keeping Gallade until a suspect after Magneton. Let's all be real here, we know it's getting banned. No one is legitimately sitting around going, "You know what NU needs? To get shit all over." We all know it's going rather it be through a quick-ban or a delayed suspect test...

I get what you're saying but that is somewhat relevant to be honest. When suspecting a single mon such as Lando in OU, it changes the meta by leaps and bounds. Let alone two mons. We have to think long term about these suspects. Okay, so afterwards Cobalion is realistically a problem and if Coba...

If only this thing would have been gone by the end of XY yet it helped with Maw and Aegi so much, even Mega Lucario, so there was no way possible at the time. Now though, now it's getting the suspect it always needed. Lando-I WILL be getting banned for a number of reasons, so I won't talk about...

I have two nominations. First: Keep Mega Latios C Rank I think that it would be absolutely ridiculous to lower its ranking First off its offenses are 130/160 which is beautiful for a mixed attacker Next its defenses are 80/100/120 which is pretty solid seeing as Knock Off (while still painful)...

I would like to nominate Mega Pidgeot for B-/B I personally feel like (insert random type) spam has always been a solid strategy. Bird spam though has always taken the cake by giving you a reasonably solid layout in team structure to follow. With ORAS (and specifically the prominence of...

I recognize what you're saying with this but I think at this point you pick mega scizor or mawhile but not both. If Solrock were to get trapped that'd be like sending P-don a personal invitation to push your shit in. As for recommendations I'd say switch Maw for the recommended Scizor set. I...

Is anyone getting a Primal Groudon vibe from this whole Giratina-O suspect? I think Ubers players or anyone that has really even played in Oras Ubers will get what I mean. Gira feels like a Poke that would entirely balance out the meta but it would make it too balanced. It would be on nearly...

So after playing a bit of Stall on the ladder (even though most of it was just against Joey's suspect testing team) I noticed Giratina fit beautifully on stall being a pivot stall so desperately needs against trappers (Gothitelle) I'll drop calcs if you don't believe me. 252+ SpA Choice Specs...

I'm not arguing for Giratina-O to stay by saying this but Gira isn't the reason stall is fucked. Trapping (specifically Gothitelle) is what truly tears apart stall by dismantling cores. The hard hitting Hyper O shifted meta doesn't make matters worse to be fair, and the fact that Goth works well...

I think you totally missed what I said. I won't be voting simply because I don't see Gira as an issue but I feel like this is a very ME specific sort of thing, and all of those things work for me for reasons you clearly ignored in bold. As I said, I play Hyper Offense. I don't counter things, I...

So I always play Hyper O. It is without a doubt my favorite playstyle. I usually get up hazards, and immediately start hitting hard. That being said, Giratina-O has never been a problem for me. I love using mons that are usually beating Gira, I don't mind losing Pokes to secure a safe end game...

I had to highlight this simply because I think this was the most hilarious think I've ever read. I get what you're saying, don't get me wrong, Giratina is an absolute beast, but there's a difference between talking about Giratina-O and playing it, and I simply can't agree with you. On paper...

Dragalge: While its speed stat is very low and makes it able to be revenge killed easily, I feel like its ability to nuke things so easily with relatively no switch-ins makes it too powerful for the tier. The typing is just icing on top of the cake. It isn't ridiculously overpowered, I just feel...

Aww I'm feeling the love Edit: Thank you for noting my contribution to the thread ad I'd like to make it clear that I don't by any means think Greninja is beyond broken, out of control, and completely unstoppable. I simply think that if you aren't using Greninja, you're at a disadvantage and...

People truly fail to realize during suspects that when a Pokemon is being suspected, it really isn't just the Poke by itself. It's the Poke on a team with 5 others built to pair with it, and when your team must build with it in mind or with it in general, the poke is broken and/or...
