    OU Lopunny [QC 3/3] [GP 2/2]

    I'd say no, since Lopunny almost always loses if it's outsped. 252 SpA Life Orb Protean Greninja Extrasensory vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Lopunny-M: 299-354 (109.9 - 130.1%) -- guaranteed OHKO But Fake Out Lopunny can win if it's Jolly, even if Greninja has only taken minimal LO damage. 252 Atk...

    np: XY OU Suspect Testing Round 6 - Wrecking Ball [Read Post 423 for Posting etiquette]

    I think you also forgot how many people actually participated in that test compared to how many people actually play the game. In case you don't know, there were only 93 people that participated (i.e. got reqs and voted) in the last suspect test, and probably some more that laddered but didn't...

    np: XY OU Suspect Testing Round 6 - Wrecking Ball [Read Post 423 for Posting etiquette]

    I'm not even going to comment how I feel about Mawilite because I'm against the nature of this suspect test as a whole. I'm all for testing potentially broken stuff, but we haven't even let the meta breathe after the Aegislash ban. It's only been a few days since we put that ban in place and...

    Baton Pass - its role in the metagame and possible solutions to nerf full Baton Pass chains

    I'm seriously glad you brought this up, it's one of the best supporting statements for a restrictive clause IMO. I played Yugioh competitively when I was younger and the Forbidden/Limited lists are extremely simple to understand. The Limited/Semi-Limited lists (which limited cards to 1 or 2...

    Baton Pass - its role in the metagame and possible solutions to nerf full Baton Pass chains

    BP is definitely a tough problem to solve, as the move on its own isn't broken and does have competitive use outside of BP chains (namely escaping Pursuit, which for mons like Espeon is a fairly big deal). Also, outright banning the move, the abilities Magic Bounce/Speed Boost, or a combination...

    Using up my bump, still looking for some feedback

    SubCoil Zygarde/VoltTurn

    Air Slash is a special move, and one of its primary moves.

    SubCoil Zygarde/VoltTurn

    First post on the RMT forums, hoping to get some feedback on this team! Basically I wanted to construct a team around SubCoil Zygarde, who is criminally underused and underestimated by many. The team ended up having a VoltTurn core that is able to not only bring Zygarde in safely but also...

    SwagPlay, evaluating potential bans (basic definition of "uncompetitive" in OP)

    So this thread has gone to complete shit. Everything's been stated over and over again with the same damn arguments being exhausted and rebutted. Tiering council should lock the thread and ban something/run a suspect test. It's very clear that something needs to be banned at this point, since...

    SwagPlay, evaluating potential bans (basic definition of "uncompetitive" in OP)

    I'll ask you guys something: in some hypothetical world, there exists two ways to play some shooter game. One way is to win a super involved gunfight that requires you to be a good aim, know your terrain, be able to make snap decisions, etc. Maybe there's a small amount of unavoidable "luck" in...

    Azelf [QC 2/3] Ready for 3rd QC check

    Kind of. It's able to semi-reliably deal with Hydreigon as well as Haxorus and Crawdaunt since Azelf can potentially outspeed (depends on item and boosts) and OHKO them provided Azelf gets a free switch in. Also, it can OHKO the likes of Greninja, Sharpedo, Noivern (after rocks), Salamence...

    OU Haxorus

    Not QC but I'm seeing 64 Def EVs being thrown in to ensure survival against CB Talon's Brave Bird after rocks, but the problem is that those EVs don't actually ensure survival, so the wording in the analysis is false. 252+ Atk Choice Band Talonflame Brave Bird vs. 0 HP / 64 Def Haxorus: 238-282...

    Banette

    You might want to consider mentioning dual screens support in the Team Options section for both sets. I run offensive M-Banette and find that having the appropriate screen(s) up is stupidly helpful when trying to find opportunities to switch in. Like Plus said, you normally can't switch Banette...

    Hydreigon [QC 3/3] [GP 0/2]

    EDIT: Everything I just said has been said by the user above me, guess I came in a bit too late XP Because Earth Power is the only move that lets you get past Heatran, whereas Fire Blast/Flamethrower will activate Heatran's Flash Fire. Otherwise, I would say that Fire Blast is better for...

    Other "The Offensive Bias."

    TBH I don't know why more people aren't using M-Banette. I've been using a more offensive variant to fairly great effect on Showdown. Just give it Screens support and watch as it slaps your Gengars, Starmies, Gliscors, and basically any setup sweepers right in their stupid little faces haha But...

    Kangaskhanite Tiering Discussion [+Demographics Poll Added to OP]

    I've been lurking for a while and I feel like this discussion should have been brought up ages ago, hell, even before Gengarite was being discussed. I'm going to just state my experiences with it since you all already have done the calcs. After having played a number of teams that use this...
