My main problem is that reuniclus is in the B rank. It simply has too many good switch ins in the metagame and with the offensive pace of the metagame it will almost always fail. It still maintains its role as a good stallbreaker- unless the opponent does not have quagsire, jirachi, perish song, choice band tyranitar (the schwein uses this very effectively), sableye, stallbreaker mew, or anything else to deal with it. Putting it equal to big threats like mamoswine is simply inappropriate. Calm mind will never work against stall for reasons listed above and will not work against offense purely because of genesect. Trick room was never very good but cant't sweep much of anything nowadays. I would move it to the D rank, because while being bulky, fighting resistant, and having calm mind and recover is unique it isn't enough. Plus it could laugh at breloom in BW, but now breloom can KO with LO or CB bullet seed provided it gets a lot of hits. And it is simply outclassed offensively because the lati twins resist grass and water, alakazam is hella fast, and jirachi has a steel typing.

Hopping on the Renuiclus train here, not only is it a solid B rank, it's one of the first ones I would consider for A-tier. I don't think you're a stall player, as CM Reuniclus is probably the single pokemon I like least to face when I'm running stall. Being impervious to chip damage is incredibly helpful, and it's really bulky on both sides if well-Ev'd and has Calm Minded. On the other hand, Trick Room by itself can decimate offence, Genesect or not, with Life Orb boosted attacks. Yeah
Reuniclus is a solid
B-Rank
