Tired of the constant weather wars in ou? Can't handle the weight loss program reject Chansey in uu? Has Arceus normal swept yet an other "perfect" uber team? Are you *gasp* starting to get bored with pokemon? Then there is only one solution, try out some more oddball tiers.
There are 3 types of oddball tiers: competitive, Variation, and For Fun
Competitive are metagames that are supported by Smogon, but are currently unpopular and not played as much as other tiers
Competitive
Variation is a standard tier which has been slightly changed to change the meta game, for example banning or unbanning a pokemon.
Variation
For fun Metagames are big changes to the standard metagames. A fully developed one is completely different than the meta it was baised on. My favorite type of oddball Metagame.
For Fun
If you have any good Variations or For Funs please post and describe them here and if there good enough, I'll edit them in.
So discuss these exotic metagames, and try them out.
