Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Jellicent checks Mega Meta, Lando-T, Chomper, non Energy Ball Manaphy, Keldeo, and completely walls Pheromosa, which is really big. It's also a decent stallbreaker with Taunt and Wisp + Hex is really annoying for bulkier teams in general.
Dude. I want to become a high functioning weavile user, but their system is too strict. They want to come back with living proof of memes that can confirm I have p2's genetic malfunctions. Can you vouch for me on this one?
It's still a niche mon, but it's one of the more solid niche Pokemon in the lower ranks so we felt like it deserved a bump because it's better than practically all of the Pokemon in B-.

Defensively is where it gets a bit dodgy, but depending on Greninja's moveset, any well built balance or BO team should have answers to it defensively, and can rack up damage on it significantly between LO recoil and hazards.
Greninja is a lot easier to pressure offensively this generation with the introduction of Pheromosa and Tapu Koko, as well as Choice Scarf users being on basically every team that all can pressure Greninja heavily, especially Keldeo which has risen a lot in viability recently, hell even Ash Gren can OHKO Greninja with just a bit of prior damage.
