I'd like to see Zapdos move down to A-tier. I think at the time, S-tier was definitely appropriate, but now there's just too much going against it. Snorlax has always been massively popular, but SpDef Rhyperior and Nidoqueen have been becoming more popular as of late. All three of these make Zapdos's life much harder. In addition, Abomasnow dropped down, and even though it's not that popular, any hail teams are still a big thread to Zapdos with 100% accurate blizzards and stuff. I think it was borderline before, but the growing popularity of SpDef Rhyperior, Nidoqueen, and the buffer to Hail Teams just pushes it back below the line to A-tier.
Not sure if I agree with this. There's good arguments for both S and A Zappy, so I'm not sure.
That said, hell yeah Mienshao in S-Rank.
---------------------
Anyways, as of now, I honestly think
Nidoking should be moved to C-Rank. Overall, I did a bit of testing to justify this, and overall Nidoking was just unimpressive. He is simply too frail and slow by UU standards. 85 Speed is very mediocre, and while Kingdra and Heracross have shit to mitigate that, Nidoking is too vulnerable. His fraility is also a pain, because he will usually only take out one Pokemon before he usually dies. He has done a rather miserable job at hitting hard. Because of this, Nidoqueen is, for the most part, better than King. She is slower, but Modest Queen hits harder than Timid King, and Nidoqueen also has one thing King only wishes it had: bulk. Nidoking's atrocious bulk really holds it back, but Queen has the bulk that makes the big difference when combating things like Raikou and Heracross. Let me go get some calcs to prove Nidoqueen's superiority to King.
+1 252 SpA Raikou Hidden Power Ice vs. 0 HP / 4 SpD Nidoking: 266-314 (87.78 - 103.63%) -- 25% chance to OHKO
+1 252 SpA Raikou Hidden Power Ice vs. 100 HP / 0 SpD Nidoqueen: 240-284 (69.36 - 82.08%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
(Okay, this one isn't that good)
252 Atk Heracross Earthquake vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Nidoking: 264-312 (87.12 - 102.97%) -- 18.75% chance to OHKO
252 Atk Heracross Earthquake vs. 100 HP / 0 Def Nidoqueen: 238-282 (68.78 - 81.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
In summation, Nidoking's flaws are too crippling for it to stay B-Rank, and it is, to put it bluntly, outclassed by Nidoqueen.
I also think
Machamp should be moved to C-Rank.
Let's explain the reason in short: There really isn't much of a reason to use Machamp anymore. He's overshadowed by literally every Fighting-type in the tier. His attacks are generally weaker than that of top threats like Heracross and Mienshao. He isn't even that bulky either; he still gets 2HKO'd by most attacks. His poor Speed does not come to help either, so when it hits enough low HP, he's just a Speed bump for speedsters like Mienshao and gang. Azelf and Crobat literally murder him, and like using him as bait. With counters to Mienshao/Heraboss like Crobat and Cofag running around, Machamp struggles in this meta, and is outclassed by most Fighting-types. He should be C-Rank.
Gligar should be C-Rank as well.
Uhh, Gligar is ass. It's got great physical bulk, sure, but that doesn't really help it. Gligar has absolutely no offensive presence and thus is very often setup bait for things like Scrafty and Weavile, both physical attackers who don't give a fuck about Gligar. This turns Gligar into a massive momentum killer, because he just sits there and does literally nothing other than set up SR. He's also fucked over by MixShao and MixCoba to an extent. Sure, he's immune to two statuses, but that's not saying much when Gligar robs momentum from your team. He is also a complete and utter liability against hail teams, as BlizzSpam will just give him chills. Also, 'Stoise, a common spinner on hail, can Scald him. I honestly think Slowbro or Cofagrigus are better choices for my go-to physical wall. And did I not mention Gligar gets beaten by both Blastoise and Claydol alike (but not Shitmontop).
Ninjask should be added to D-Rank.
Ah, Ninjask. The famous Speed Boost Baton Pass strategy can work somewhat well in UU. This is Ninjask's sole niche, and he's decent at pulling it off. Of course, Ninjask is vulnerable to SR and is liable to die to Cinccino and Rhyperior, but Ninjask can still pull off that niche in the right conditions and can make or break a game with the proper playing. Sure, Ninjask is gimmicky, but he can be used to some effect.
Add Weezing to D-Rank.
Weezing is somewhat usable in UU as a physical wall who can take on things like Mienshao, Krookodile, and a myriad of physical attackers. However, at the same time, Weezing is a massive liability in UU because special attackers are big and plentiful. There's the rare Specs Roserade with E-Sensory, Shaymin, Raikou, Zapdos, etc. Because of this, Weezing is very vulnerable to special attackers and can often die. Cofagrigus is also often a better choice to take on Fighters and can also spinblock and shit. However, because of its massive physical defense, it has a small niche in the UU metagame, which justifies D-Rank.
Sorry if this post is long, but,
tl;dr: Move Nidoking to C-Rank because it's too slow and frail, also, Nidoqueen is better. Machamp should be C because it's slow and outclassed by every Fighting-type. Gligar is ass and should be C at best. Ninjask and Weezing for D-Rank because they both have small niches in UU, but are fairly mediocre otherwise.
