o_k, i guess i'll make some updates now.
Anyways, i'm not really sure where to place the dragons at the moment, theres been a little bit of controvery over where Fraxure should be placed although the discussion seems to be leaning a little bit towards keeping it in B rank. I added Shelgon to the ranks where Oglemi proposed them, but idk, i kinda think that Shelgon should go a little bit higher than low C rank, it looks pretty good on paper and i think it could have the potential to even go up to where i've placed Dragonair now (It can actually run the same set Oglemi posted for Dragonair, which looks pretty interesting). I dont really have much experience with either of them in this meta though, so i'll just place them where they were proposed until they're discussed more and/or i have some more experience with them.
As for Seaking: it looks pretty interesting, although i'm not sure if its positive traits will be enough to push into B rank. Of course Lightningrod is pretty cool, and lets seaking be a pretty decent check to most of the Electric-types in the tier now that it has an immunity to their attacks instead of a weakness while resisting their coverage moves, but it really doesn't seem to have that much going for it otherwise. Outside of its decent Attack and Hp stats, Seaking's stats are pretty mediocre overall, with other Water-types such as Kabutops, Feraligatr, and Samurott having much better stats overall and access to moves Seaking wished it could use possessed such as Swords Dance. completely overshadowing it as a Water-type outside of Lightningrod, Seaking can't even seperate itself with Megahorn, as Samurott learns the move as well and has a higher Attack stat to use it with. Overall, while Seaking does have a pretty decent niche in Lightningrod, i don't think that niche is enough to justify placing it in B rank, low C rank/D rank seems more appropriate to me if anywhere at all. Although i'd be open to placing it higher if you guys think it deserves it, Like Dragonair and Shelgon, i'll be sure to test it out over the course of the next few days to see how it does!
btw, kaonohiokala, would you happen to have any logs of seaking? i'm really curious :o
Nice to see Magneton getting some more love :] (but not at the same time because it can be a real pain tbh :[).Updates said:Moved Moltres down from low S rank ----> top A rank
