I'd like to bring up two mons that I feel deserve the rank of A- Insert obligatory bloated joke here Firstly, B+ -> A- Many, MANY teams are unprepared for the presence of Thundurus, as a lot of solid Koko answers simply falter against the raw power Thundurus has. Nasty Plot absolutely shreds...

I'll break these up a bit since I'm going to talk about a few things. (This isn't a nom for rising or lowering, just two cents) Breloom is suffering currently. Mega Metagross is a top tier threat, Tapu Lele can revenge kill it with extreme ease, Buzzwole and Alolan Marowak wall it to hell and...

Yeah I know, my point was that you shouldn't discredit a mon or be reluctant to use it based on its tier. Anyways, would Scizor potentially get QBed? I know for a fact it'll be getting a suspect with how strong it is in UU, but I'm asking for opinions on a potential QB.

Being OU, UU, etc. doesn't matter in the slightest. It doesn't determine how good or viable a pokemon is in another meta. The only thing it determines is how popular it is. Tangrowth in ORAS, for example, was RU for the longest time but was always a great OU Pokemon, and then viola it got OU...

Every real relevant dark type not named Greninja gets smcked 4x by HP Fighting. Plus, Ghost+Fighting is unresisted to my knowledge.

252+ SpAtk is just for maximizing damage 88 Speed is to speedcreep minspeed Skarm and anything slower 168 is thrown into HP just for maximizing bulk

Assault Vest would be good if there weren't Pokemon that naturally did what AV Primarina does. It's a redundant option with the meta we're in and has no business being used over just about any other bulky Water. Just abuse her Offensive niche; it's what's keeping her relevant.

Specs is still the best niche. AV is worn down much too quickly with zero access to recovery in any form, and more often than not you're going to be saying "Man I wish I OHKO/2HKO'd this" when using AV than you'll be saying "Man I wish I lived this hit" when using Specs. Specs is just, a much...

Here, the sets I'd use personally Venusaur @ Venusaurite Ability: Chlorophyll EVs: 232 HP / 180 Def / 80 SpD / 16 Spe Bold Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Giga Drain - Sludge Bomb - Leech Seed - Synthesis Heatran @ Leftovers Ability: Flash Fire EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 Spe Timid Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Lava...

Surprised that I've only seen people talk about Primarina's sets instead of how absolutely amazing this thing is when used in a bulky FWG core. Primarina obviously breaks down walls with its scary Dual STAB typing and coverage in Psychic, HP Fire, Ice Beam, Energy Ball, etc. But when put on a...

A better wishpassing partner would be Clefable. Being able to cockblock Dark types is something that Decidueye loves, and regardless, Decidueye doesn't need wish support since it has Roost. If you're looking for good Water partners, Mega Gyara and Azumarill are the best options

Will edit as soon as I'm home from exams. Thanks!

Appreciate the feedback friend! Thank you!

Nobody's saying it's amazing or even going to be OU. We're discussing and going over the potential it can have, and I'm pretty sure we've all found the limitations and gone over everything Decidueye can be and do. Also, name me another Defogger that also blocks Rapid Spin and checks Lando-I at...

Very true, but at the same time the reason I said that is because there are SO many blanket checks to dark types in general going around right now. Tapu Fini, Tapu Koko, Buzzwole, Pheromosa, Alolan Muk, Mega Scizor, and Mega Gyarads, and I don't feel like it's entirely necessary to carry Focus...

Actually if I can go a bit off topic, Jab is the best fourth move for it right now. Low Kick is kinda trash rn and it doesn't need pursuit. Anyways, Tapu Bulu is still a good partner and I'll add it anyway.

To be fair, Bulu loses to Weavile and Bisharp, especially the former if carrying Poison Jab which will just absolutely cuck you.

I'm not overall too sure on fitting DBond on the actual set instead of just making it an OO. Even with taunt, it can still be a bit unreliable and also limits your other, more general and applicable options such as WoW or even Substitute. I'll consider a slash on the fourth slot.

Gengar QC: Dennis EG, PK Gaming, p2 GP: Kris [OVERVIEW] ======== Gengar has great Special Attack and a decent movepool to allow it to act as a strong wallbreaker. Its good Speed can be utilized to make a semipotent revenge killer on Offense. Gengar has utility outside of wallbreaking with moves...
