Smogon Premier League is here and the team collection is now available. Support your team!
Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
I think that to gauge how much of a priority a Solgaleo retest should have (over a 3rd Kyurem suspect or an Ogerpon one), the survey should directly ask about Solgaleo, instead of relying on write ins.
I hope lower tier mons get explored more and we get a tier with a higher number of mons in it. Mons that I have seen perform strongly in teams and that I think should be OU:
Sinistcha
Tornadus-T
Latios
Okidogi
the f=ck happened?
to keep this OU related, I'm surprised Latios isn't being used more. It looks like Garchomp is going to be the flavour of the month mon that the community suddenly rediscovers after ignoring it for a long time, but I think Latios with its superior set variety, privoting...
How? The cheesy part that people are complaining about (as I said unjustifiably) is Poison Puppeteer, not Malignant Chain itself. Malignant Chain itself is just a better Sludge Bomb.
I don't have much to add except that the comparison to DPP Machamp is very unsuitable. Confusion is a nerfed mechanic, and when Pecharunt uses Malignant Chain it has a 16.67% of incapacitating you next turn, compared to Machamp's 50%. Machamp would get consistently rewarded for clicking Dynamic...

I'm very surprised it still has over 7% usage, I swear this mon is such a fraud. I suppose high skilled players can take advantage of the sequencing that it forces, or get a guaranteed poison with Red Card, but everytime it comes out it does so little...
I said some weeks ago that the community had to decide whether to increase the power level with the introduction of many UUbers or reduce the power level with the collective ban of 6-10 mons, because we are in an awkward middle ground. No individual mon is broken or too outrageous, and even if...
4 attacks Zama has been a thing for a while, I have several teams with Life orb or Choice Band or even Boots I think. It's great, it's a big lump of stats with good coverage.
Enjoyment: 7
Competitiveness: 8
Kingambit: 3
Kyurem: 1
Ogerpon-W: 3
Zamazenta: 1
Raging Bolt: 3
Gliscor: 1
Tera Blast: 2
Write ins: Solgaleo, Regieleki, Terastalization.
I don't find tera blast particularly concerning, Ogerpon-W has no switch ins if you don't know the set because it has too...
