Once again. Read the countless previous post I've made. Everything you question has been answered if not more than twice now. Negligence is understandable the first time, but try to not let it happen again to keep this thread productive? Please. Also I've presented my argument in detail. At...

Oi vey... I really wish you would actually read my posts because a lot of what you're saying completely ignores what I've already said. I'm in no way supplying an argument that "broken beats broken" because I've gone in-depth to explain that there is a difference between healthy and unhealthy...

I honestly don't even know where to begin with this... essay of a post, but I guess we'll start with a big misinterpretation that you've presented from reading my posts. I, in no way, am saying that the suspect testing system is flawed. If anything I actually support the way it is done...

I mean it exactly in the context it provides; having lost the physical, mental, or moral qualities considered normal and desirable; showing evidence of decline. The description you've given me about the end of the XY meta is ironically enough how I see the current meta. People keep saying that...

I was going to make this post after I finished getting 2700 COIL but I saw your post and... you hit the nail clean on the head. A lot of us are tired of walking in a mindless circle that degenerates the metagame. The biggest issue with the suspect ladder is we are banning a highly viable...

I don't think you understand what a counter is because nobody in their right mind would say that Zapdos is a counter. If anything all you've done is use specific moves to beat specific mons, and HP Fire to beat Scizor is PRIME proof of that. I do hope you stick around in this thread and listen...

Skrelp. I should have known that this was coming. Mega Metagross has amazing coverage, great stats, in addition to a solid typing and that scares people. I guess this was inevitable; I've been waiting for the next suspect test and it only fits that we address one of the hard hitters. However...

You, sir, need to learn to read. Let me quote the text for you since you obviously missed it. Obviously we can go back and forth. EVs can be presented and warped to beat one another. I'm not going to do that because that's only something that should be relevant when and if Aegislash does come...

I highly disagree that the meta isn't "prepared for Aegislash". I've seen your calcs, Most of them were fair. Though I would never be as foolish to say Mega Slowbro is remotely a check or counter to Aegislash. If anything it'd need a few calm minds to even stand a chance. The only calc I am...

That was an argument that was used during the initial suspect testing. However, the meta is already saturated with checks and counters to this Pokemon. It cannot be over-centralizing if it does not force you to bring counters you weren't already bringing for other higher used threats. This is...

I really think people need to stop and think before they try and persuade others that Aegislash will be just as over-centralizing as it was in XY. The truth and facts are in the usage stats. The counters that people use for higher usage threats also can double as counters for Aegislash should it...

I never thought I'd see the day that Mega Pinsir would be available to play below OU. I absolutely have to get into UU now. The monster is here.

I can't believe that I completely spaced to discuss it, but I guess another post won't hurt. Re-testing Aegislash: For a while now, I've actually stared at the list of ubers and wondered which one's could come back. It's led me to run at least a hundred scenarios through my head and each time...
