    OU Sword and Shield OU Discussion Thread

    I'm not gonna lie, bolt beak gets me some neurons activated, and so do weather sweepers, and so do mixed attackers. They're sick. As someone (probably) not too well versed in this tier and competitive pokemon in general, i'd love to hear more on the wretched little man arctozolt and the...

    hu, i mean, it feels the exact same ? greying out the button would just be a quality of life thing, doing the same role as replacing the text on the sleep move by "forfeit" ?

    yeahh, thats why we would gray out the Arceus forsaken button. I'm not proud to admit it, but the number of times i click a sleep move because i forgot is... well it's more than i would like to admit even though i did just admit ?

    Yeah. I can understand that it maybe the opponent forgot or something, but... i mean, the rules are the rules, and not abiding by them makes the match at least invalid if we are speaking about a serious match

    I don't think it really is a matter of "no skill", sleep is generally not quite a matter of "degenerate fishing" from my understanding, it's more of a matter of "what does this add", what does sleep, a mechanic undeniably very powerful, and invoking luck a lot, add to the game that we want to...

    :wo: I can't believe i missed the start of the sleep discussion Okay, so, getting the obvious out of the way : yes sleep adds randomness to the game. Yes, the game is already very random. Yes, we have other random stuff that is very destructive, paralysis for one. But at least, a paralysed mon...

    The short answer is that, as mentionned, there will probably not be any further drops. A longer answer is that the metagame is already a dumpster fire of broken threats all over the place, and that an immediate concern is to get it in a more stable state. It also probably will stay that way for...

    as far as i understand, poison only works the first time you get poisoned by this thing. Sounds like an inconvenience to be sure, but not game-breaking, we have worse.

    i do indeed simp for ChainChomp, and though it's not as great as in past gens, it's still an exageration to be called "fucking pathetic". It still gets KOes, and ChainChomp was never really about winning every 1v1, but about forcing things to switch in and forcing uncomfortable damage. Which...

    Hey there, sorry tofa, i'm a bit late, and not only is the Santa late, they also put coal in your socks instead of presents. But hey, this coal is at least shaped in the way of a non-HO moltres-galar team. https://pokepast.es/298c61aa46da4d38 Melmetal being the best OU pokemon yet again...
