I don't have anything particulally influencial to say about moving specific Pokemon, but I still say we don't include any NFE's except Scyther, Vigaroth, Pikachu and Trapinch, in UU, UU, UU and NU respectively, as they are the only NFE's that actually play different to their evolved counterparts.

Having shit like Kadabra/Haunter/Metang/Chansey in BL/UU just makes it into OU-lite, which pretty muke ruins the whole idea of the UU metagame. It isn't supposed to be a weaker version of the OU game, but using the NFE's forces it to be.
