I think that FOR SURE Rain Dance and Hail need to be banned. OHKO Thunder and Blizzard is too OP for this type of play.To the guy above me = why would you ban Stealth Rock and the weather-setting moves? O_o
Who cares about limited distribution when some of the Pokemon that get it are Skarmory [resisting the main STAB of a lot of the metagame and having the physical bulk to stomach several powerful hits] and Landorus-I [with Intimidate to lessen blows, a great attack stat, and excellent stats overall]?
If there's controversy over the brokenness of Stealth Rock now, imagine what'd happen if most of the metagame is weak to it and very little resists it?
As for weather, Rain Dance sets you up for 8 Thunders [Damp Rock] as opposed to Thunderbolts if you have it.
95 * 8 = 760
120 * 8 = 960
Obviously it'd be a centralising factor but the point is that it isn't banned in standard play, which this meta is directly based on, and the available pokemon are more than capable of dealing with it. We have poor spinblockers, two good spinners (one with SR resistance and Electric immunity, another with excellent SpD for soaking BoltBeam and an amazing STAB) and a Magic Bouncer. Banning SR because you want to use Butterfree and Charizard is ridiculous.
whyjust stop
What? I don't understand this sentence...Cryogonal does have Levitate...Well if we go by b2j's rules then suddenly the only spinner is Claydol who's not so good (There's Delibird, but seriously, who would even use it?) since Cryogonal doesn't have levitate or a flying time.
No arguements here. I just really wanted to get everyones input and see how they feel about my ruleset. I actually want to test out SR even more now. Weather I'm still on the fence about but, hey to each's own.snip
For sure. However, Teambuilding would be easier if everyone knew what was legal. Does anyone object to my making a comprehensive list of every fully evolved, legal Pokemon in the tier?
