I'll have to disagree on this one as it is still as effective as it was when it rose back up to A+, not to mention that CB sets have started to run Iron Tail more and more, making Tapu Bulu less of a problem. Its DD Groundium Z set is also very effective in breaking through fat as Clefable usage is *not as high* as it was initially. Not much has changed for Zygarde at all and if anything the meta has shifted to its favor, this is why it should stay in A+.
Tornadus-T should definitely rise to B+ as it is a very good and effective Defogger and many fat balances heavily appreciate its utility in Defog and strong utility options in U-turn and potentially Knock Off. Not to mention, it's also a pretty cool fit on some bulky offenses that like its ability to act as a fast Defogger that can come in on rocks relatively easy thanks to Regenerator. Z-Hurricane is nothing to laugh at either as there are very few Pokemon that can effectively switch into it, this isn't only due to Z-Hurricane but also due to, for example, Knock Off, which allows it to cripple most Flying-type resists like Celesteela and Heatran.
e: It's thicc too so that's definitely an upside too.
I don't have a lot to say about this since sedertz covered it perfectly, just wanted to say that I do agree.
Can we please just unrank this nibba. It is really bad. I've tried using it and I have written its analysis but it really isn't quite viable enough to be ranked. It fails to get setup opportunities due to its horrific defense stats and after use of Splintered Stormshards it is rather weak and doesn't break through many walls, even if this is what it's supposed to do. Accelerock may be a valuable attribute to some teams that are very weak to Volcarona and Mega Pinsir, it is not enough to warrant it being ranked.
Mega Venusaur can't do much to Toxapex if it doesn't have Knock Off to cripple it. Toxapex can't do much back to it except for a Scald burn, which can actually be really annoying as Mega Venusaur lacks Leftovers recovery.Yeah what was the point of Venuaur dropping? It's still really good and shoud definitely NOT be B+. How the hell is Toxapex a good stop to Mega Venusaur too? It can do NOTHING to mega venusaur, what is it going to do, scald? It can't even touch venusaur. I'm sorry if this sounds rude but it should not of dropped and since it did why?? The Venusaur drop reasoning made no sense at all.
