~~A Not-So-Brief Introduction~~
Hey everyone! I'd like to unveil something that has been in the works for a while now: A Teir which I call Borderline.
As much as I love pokemon, I've never been 100% satisfied with the competitive aspect of it. I feel as if the current UU metagame is held back by the current ban list and Lackluster usage OU mons taunting UU with their almost dropping range.which forces the existence of this. Borderline aims to answer this question - if we were to completely unban sand,sun,hail,kyurem,Various low OU mons, what would be the result?
With the power of Smogon's brilliant Player base support, my personal opinions on the metagame, and constant testing: The all of UU and Some of OU lowest mons in a metagame together, with a plethora of un bannings which aim to level the playing field for each Pokemon inside the teir.

~~Change/Teir List~~

The OU Pokemon allowed are haxorus and bellow wich are:
Haxorus
Hydreigon
Duggtrio
Latias
Vaporeon
Reuniclis
Magnezone
Keldeo
(Lando -T has been insta banned)
Metagross
Deoxys-D
Celebi
Toxicroak
Gastrodon
Chansey
Abomasnow
Hippowdon

~~Help Needed~~
If you see me on PS PM me if you want to help me wit the balancing with this teir I will chose 7 people to be the senate of 5Th GEN BL.

I hope I've gotten the interest of those who read this post. Have fun, and don't forget to post feedback and suggestions

Cheers. :D
