Folex and Prosecutor Godot, I added your sets to the OP and added Mega-Venusaur as a check.

The "Next Big Thing" will be what is currently in the S-Rank right now. Sure, the Charizard evolutions are up there, but as Chesnaught said, neither are game breaking. Both have very predictable movesets (especially Y) that you can exploit with the right Pokemon. Charizard-Y is walled by Chansey...

#479 Rotom-Wash Type: Abilities Levitate: Damage dealing Ground-type moves have no effect on this Pokémon. Cannot be trapped by Arena Trap ability. Takes no damage from Spikes. BS: 50/65/107/105/107/86 BST: 520 Viable Moves Will-O-Wisp Volt Switch Trick Toxic Thunderbolt Thunder Wave...

...sure Assault Vest may help, but Play Rough exists. So...Scrafty may be good, but there are just better Pokemon now that are just better than it. The metagame has advanced and Scraggy has stayed behind.

88 SpA Life Orb Infernape Hidden Power Ice vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Gliscor: 322-385 (90.9 - 108.7%) -- 56.3% chance to OHKO 88 SpA Life Orb Infernape Hidden Power Ice vs. 4 HP / 0 SpD Landorus: 307-364 (95.9 - 113.7%) -- 75% chance to OHKO 88 SpA Life Orb Infernape Hidden Power Ice vs. 252 HP / 4...

Just my personal opinion, but why would Deoxys-S get banned? Sure, it sets up stealth rocks almost assuredly, but it is just begging for setup. If you see a Deoxys-S on the other team, you KNOW they're sending it out first, and with little defenses and underwhelming special attack and attack...

But the damage difference is extremely noticeable, and although it gets the Iron Fist boost, it's just not as powerful as Flare Blitz, even if blitz has recoil.

I'm honestly too lazy to go through the 99 pages of posting, but I would like to nominate Sableye for B- or maybe even B. If it has already been nominated, and I just haven't seen it, I apologize, but I think Sableye is good enough to be at least in the B rank. I've deconstructed teams with...

Well I'm glad you bumped. Just a few edits... Edits in bold Talonflame (M) @ Leftovers Ability: Gale Wings EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpDef Adamant Nature - Brave Bird - Flare Blitz - Swords Dance - Roost I would get rid of Life Orb because it...I won't say it doesn't increase your damage...

252 Atk Choice Band Iron Fist Infernape Thunder Punch vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Mega Charizard Y: 310-366 (104 - 122.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Banded Infernape has a guaranteed OHKO after SR, but past that it's a slim chance

Infernape does outspeed both Mega X and Mega Y so that's true, and if you predict the Mega Evo, you will OHKO Charizard Y, not sure about X though. The only downside is Stone Edge's accuracy. EDIT: Did some calcs 252 Atk Choice Band Infernape Stone Edge vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Mega Charizard Y...

I never thought about it like that...plus with Team Preview, you know people are going to send out Klefki first if they have one. That's really smart.

Okay well, that wasn't my main point, but I highly doubt it was falling into UU. It was too good to be UU.
