Project SM RU Role Compendium

[eren]

If you're going to remove Blastoise, then can you remove other blacklisted stuff, like Donphan, Dhelmise, and Heliolisk, as well?

I'm forced—in a way—to do all ru mons. I just forgot toise.

It's probably because there are no good stallbreakers in RU. That's why stall teams are everywhere.

I wouldn't say that stall teams in RU are "everywhere". They're not THAT common lol. I wouldn't even say that it's all that great compared to UU stall.

Also, stallbreakers do exist, including Machamp and Substitute Hoopa.

I'd say just have a list of stallbreakers with no sort of division, just for the sake of ease. I don't think there's any real reason to have a list of ''Taunt users'' when a user could just type ''/ds taunt, ru'' in the sim.

 

[Senpai D.M]

Its fine the way it is and easier for new users

Some Pokemon are viable in RU without being in the RU tier, so they can't be found by entering "/ds taunt,ru".
By the way, why is Kommo-O still listed as a choice specs user even though it's banned?

 

[Piervs]

Since photon geyser is a thing shouldn't Necrozma's psych move be updated?
