Nah, Corphish coming back in was an oversight on my part. Sad to lose Stunky, though.

So Houndour and Skrelp came back. I'm quickbanning both of them because of how they rip the tier in half. Houndour is fast, strong, has an amazing offensive typing, and great moves to easily break nearly everything in the tier, and Skrelp is similar. Nothing that can switch-in to it can hurt it hard enough, and nothing that can hurt it hard enough can switch in. Having both Pokemon in the tier will undoubtedly create a metagame that is centred around that core. As I am in the process of making the metagame healthier and generally more fun to play, removing these two before they have a chance to ruin the tier is only for the best. I've spoken to numerous people about this as well and it came to a consensus. Goodbye Houndour and Skrelp. We won't miss you. Antar
Also, RIP Lileep, Stunky, and Honedge, but uhh...welcome back Pumpkaboo-LargeSuper.
