Abra. You need to remember that in pokemon, there will be only 1 instance in a game where a 1 on 1 match up will exist, and thats after 5 mons on each team are removed. needless to say this will rarely happen. At the risk of sounding like a jerk (which is the exact opposite of what im going for), try and take a look at Koffing out of the vacuum of a one on one fight and you'll see why it really shouldnt be concidered S teir.

Koffing has a noticible niche in being a very good sand check, being immune to their stabs, and having the physical bulk to take their other attacks, while clear smogging away their boosts. Koffing also has (barely) reliable recovery in painsplit which immediately puts it LEAGUES AHEAD of Bronzor in this roll. however, Koffing, much like many other defensive poison types is cursed by its typing and mediocre special defenses. It also doesnt have the same 'offensive' presence as other walls, notably Lileep. All in all koffing isnt *bad* by any means it's just no where near as good or as versitile as the S teir mons are. Koffing has one good niche as a sand check where I'd be willing to say it actually out performs many other mons, however thats really *all* it can do with out being outclassed by other walls such as Frillish and Lileep, or even bulky offensive mons like Missy. At most I'd conciser it a B teir, though I'm feeling more of a C on this one.

Also, again without being an asshole, if you could just put spaces between sentences, it will make your posts much more aesthetically pleasing and easier to read.
Well actualy its a sand counter and it does way more than that. Im not trying to be a asshole but I strongly disagree about C, B/A is what it deserves, seriously ill post some logs later of koffing battles . If you havent used koffing(and since I know your policy I doubt you havent) you should probaly try it, its not only very good but It would make your judgements more accurate in the long run if you havent used it. Your welcome for the thank you and thanks for commenting on my nomination.

cancleling nomination, I am making horrible posts in this thread , sorry.
