Let's not forget Empoleon and Magneton.Weee all the good Steels are clumped in OU, while the leftover Dragons still get to reign supreme in UU. Fun times.
Five dragons + Dugtrio/Magneton team, anyone? The only real Steels that can take Outrages and Draco Meteors that aren't completely useless are Registeel, Cobalion, Aggron and Excavalier, who are all handily beaten by other moves anyway. Bisharp is a bit on the frail side.
So basically, Kyurem + Flygon + Kingdra + Altaria + Eviolite Shelgon + Duggy gogogo!
Funny,I'll make sure to have everybody in this thread complaining about the good stall pokemon that are ravaging OU, not the weather abusing ones ;)
you seem to be forgetting about empoleon. it's a phazing steel (the only one in uu?), which is pretty fucking valuable atm. it does get kinda fucked over by flygon and duggy though...Weee all the good Steels are clumped in OU, while the leftover Dragons still get to reign supreme in UU. Fun times.

Weavile is no where near broken, however Nplot Azelf is broken as hell. Its like a worse Nplot Thundurus in UU.I am surprised to find that stall works well even in such a broken tier, what with sun teams with Victini running around practically everywhere, and Blizzspam with Kyurem.
Stuff like Azelf and Weavile are as broken as hell, too. One thing is for sure, UU is pretty much fun to play!
Heh, wouldn't know, but isn't nplot azelf walled to hell by chansey? And any prankster user could stop it as well (although conttonee has to be wary of flamethrower).Weavile is no where near broken, however Nplot Azelf is broken as hell. Its like a worse Nplot Thundurus in UU.
Psyshock, bro. Azelf gets to have fun Taunting Chansey as well.Heh, wouldn't know, but isn't nplot azelf walled to hell by chansey? And any prankster user could stop it as well (although conttonee has to be wary of flamethrower).
What exactly is your definition of broken? This meta is one of the most varied I've seen in quite a while. I know that will change when things get kicked back out, but almost every team has been running something different.Psyshock, bro. Azelf gets to have fun Taunting Chansey as well.
Anyway, I've only had two matches, and I have to say that UU is hella fun right now. A broken metagame = fun one!
All of this is taking place on Smogon University.Just askin', but which server are you guys grabbing your results from? Sorry if it sounds noob, but I usually play on the official PO server, not Smogon University, so I just want to know if I need to swap servers.
If a pokemon has zero checks or counters to a set, then it IS broken.No Pokemon needs to have a perfect counter, or even a check to all of its sets, in order to not be broken. Therefore, the fact that Kyurem has neither of the two is completely irrelevant.
Yes, Kyurem is powerful. But being broken is an entirely different matter.
Remember Rampardos and his frightening 158 base Attack and Rock Polish? Didn't get him off the ground after all.Deo-D is a beast, but not unmanageable. I find that carrying a taunter is invaluable in this UU metagame, with stall being such a viable option.
Kyurem is ridiculously good.
And on the note of a quickban - absolutely not. We all saw what happened in gen 4 UU - almost everything that we thought was going to be broken was not.
