Yeahdoes anyone else find it hilarious how we've been talking about ambipom for like 12 pages
cause i do
No idea what your talking aboutI think the posting privileges in this thread should be quarantined for a while imo.
Please. This thread is worse than the OU suspect threads.I think the posting privileges in this thread should be quarantined for a while imo.
Last comment on the topic: I don’t give a shit about Ambipom specifically (don’t even play/follow UU) but the point is that a single person shouldn’t be able to affect tiering for the rest of the entire site. That’s not in the spirit of using usage-based tiers, which are intended to reflect trends, not outliers. If you think a mon is underrated, get it to move up by showcasing it in high-level play to encourage others to use it (which has happened plenty of times in OU this gen), don’t shove it through the tiering process yourself

it's not a trash tier, just full of trash players if they can't win 6v5's since the mon is "so bad" (protip, this likely isn't the case at all and the mon is just viable)aim's goal: ruin UU and turn it into a trash tier

No thanks all my brain cells are already deadIf anyone wants a fun way of ending it alll, I recommend taking a shot every time you read an inflammatory post about ambipom. Bonus points if you turn it into a game with friends!
those mons ain't beating the 2 most used mons in the tier and even moreaim's goal: ruin UU and turn it into a trash tier

I'd say that Aim's series about being more creative team building and seeing Niches in Pokemon is more reckless fun, than intentional sabotage of tiers. It may be fun for some people like himself, but him encouraging other people to be more creative with team building and increasing usage of Pokemon is going to harm low tiers a lot and make them lose the purpose they had in the first place. Sure Ambipom is just so outclassed in every tier and won't be missed, but what about key Pokemon in NU/PU/RU that get artificially sent to OU. It would screw over tiers if Pokemon were rising because of e-celebs and their drones. It can also harm the Pokemon itself, as now, Ambipom is stuck in a tier it will get destroyed.aim's goal: ruin UU and turn it into a trash tier

UU has 1/6 of the player base of OU, and a lower usage threshold for tiering(1630 as opposed to 1695); it's entirely possible for a couple of influential good players and an horde of mediocre players to influence usage to this extent if they all decide to do the same thing. Remember trash mons like Arcanine are already UU by usage(interestingly enough, Arcanine's usage plummeted this month, as if the same people who would use it are the same ones that would fall for the Ambipom meme, makes one ponder...)it's not a trash tier, just full of trash players if they can't win 6v5's since the mon is "so bad" (protip, this likely isn't the case at all and the mon is just viable)
If you are able to show that any of those mons are viable by getting multiple accounts into the top 10, I'm sure other people would use them, thus raising their usage. i know Joey didn't get multiple accounts into the top 10 using ambipom, just 1, but you don't have the reach he does either, so it's harder for you to show a mons merits to 1000's of people
Either the first or the second one, the third one would be believable if lots of people(around at least 10) managed to get to top 50 with Ambi which I don't recall being the case.So either:
>UU players are so trash that even top 100 players regularly lose to Pokeaim when he basically plays 6v5.1
>Pokeaim is so godly at the game that he can play a tier he barely focuses on otherwise and win 6v5.1
>Ambipom while not being great, has a niche and is viable in the tier if you build around its strengths
Pick any of the 3.
