Breloom is UU now btw. Buzzwole has a niche on hard stall, it's a nice physical check to stuff like Lando and Zygarde, Conkeldurr is kinda outclassed by other offensive fighting types, Diggersby is just too slow / frail to be considered over other ground types, like there are other even stronger breakers that don't have awful offense matchups, Gardevoir makes you think why you're not using Lele, Porygon Z is actually sleeper on Webs and shit like that imo, Staraptor is a really hard hitter and is actually usable as a revenge killer utilising a scarf because of this, Xurkitree can't touch the fat grasses that are everywhere currently because of Koko and Zygarde and Breloom isn't great either, but it's amazing in UU though!I have just checked the viability rankings and we note the absence of a number of Borderline. This is the case of:

It is understandable that they certainly have no niche in USUM (if they are not even present in the rank C-, it is to tell you how horrible they are in OU gen 7). This is particularly egregious because they have no analysis on Smogon (we still see the important schism of power between the OU and the UU). Are they totally unusable or does a micro-niche exist (at least one moveset)? I guess they are waiting to be retested in UU (because otherwise they are doomed). Or create a specific rank D (as in Uber: OU by technicality but which are strongly discouraged to play)
