    SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet Leaks Thread - Data/Mechanics

    These new TM learnsets are so targetted Like Pokemon that used to learn moves no longer them It's fascinating

    Thank goodness I don't see it dominating in standard OU or anything but the 110 speed tier should make it a lot more threatening in general

    Metagame Terastallization Tiering Discussion [ UPDATE POST #1293]

    I really feel for the tiering staff for the unenviable task of trying to approach Terastallization balance. It is IMO, the most difficult mechanic we've ever had to seriously reckon with as a community. I remember Drizzle + Swift Swim ban being a huge deal back in the day and it feels so much...

    Maybe disallowing same type Tera Evolution with a clause could be a potential option. I find myself really hating the extra STAB boost from a lot of Pokemon over everything else tbh. Though this doesn't always address Tera priority sweepers who are also a huge problem

    SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet Leaks Thread - Data/Mechanics

    I think these balance choices are amazing and hilarious because the game is ostensibly designed around VGC and 3v3 Singles, but many of these changes are targeted toward the "unofficial" 6v6 meta. I can already imagine GameFreak devs playing on Showdown and getting salty and deciding to nerf...

    I hope it's a mistake because that change would be especially infuriating

    SPOILERS! Pokemon Legends: Arceus *Leak Thread*

    I think there's definitely a middle ground between competitively dominant like Greninja and "so bad it's bad in-game" like Meganium

    That 5 extra speed is an absolute gamechanger for Zoroark Assuming it gets to keep Illusion in the next gen, it could end up being an incredibly nasty offensive threat

    SPOILERS! Pokemon Legends: Arceus *Leak Thread*

    I wonder if many of those abilities (ie: for the starters) are simply placeholders

    Resource BDSP OU Metagame Discussion Thread

    I've only played a bit, but while BDSP is fundamentally a completely different game than DP OU (Lack of Pursuit really hurts) it has idk... DP OU's spirit, or at least it will once we get some obvious bans out of the way Like, Dragon's are obviously overtuned but I miss when they actually had...

    Resource SS OU DLC2 Viability Ranking Thread [SEE: Page 105, Post 2618]

    Random aside, but I think it's possible to get away with using just about any Pokemon in the current OU metagame. Seriously, team build potential is absolutely off the charts now, to the point where I can't think of an OU metagame that comes even remotely close to having this many # of viable...

    I agree with the sentiment that Urshifu has always been the issue and focusing on FuturePort is a textbook example of treating the symptom rather than the cause. FuturePort is undeniably cheesy, so I understand why people dislike it. But it's ultimately something we to accept, because I don't...

    It's a lot of work, but we're definitely getting closer towards building a good metagame for SS Just gotta keep up the pace

    How should Zamazenta-C be tiered? (RESOLVED)

    There's precedent and sufficiently good arguments to go ahead and do this imo And now would probably be the best time to do it given the state of the tier Ideally after the next ban wave

    I don't agree with the premise of your argument to begin with, but saying "players need to stop being lazy and build different teams" doesn't service your argument in any way. Plenty of problematic Pokemon lack immediate power. The issue with Zygarde is that it spreads paralysis (or Toxic) and...

    Super casual take based on limited play, but Swords Dance + Scale Shot Haxorus is lookin kinda decent RNG on your main STAB sucks ass, but you can snowball pretty hard if you get the chance to properly setup
