I don't want to be overtly negative towards a post that's ultimately saying "experiment and have fun," but I will say that if someone feels the need to use lower tiered mons just to handle one or two specific threats shows that there is a problem. Pokemon like Bronzong should just be a fun...

True, at this point it's really up to what happens during WCoP. Kinda unfortunate survey timing tbh. I don't it was in the best interest of many qualified players to shake the metagame up in any form. Course that's an unsubstantiated claim, and a bit conspiracy brained. Reality is most likely...

idk why people think Regieleki would do anything in OU without Tera Blast. The most used Pokemon in the tier is a Ground type, and there are 4 other highly splash able Ground type Pokemon in OU alone. Much like in SS OU Regieleki would have minimal impact on the tier if it lost access to Tera...

This is quite limited thinking when you consider Solgaleo has a perfectly usable 113 Special Attack stat, and a good Special movepool to boot. Pecharunt and Zama hate Psychic. Mola, Corv, and Moltres dislike Thunderbolt more so than Wild Charge. When I see Solgaleo in the tier is as a mixed...

Surprised how low everything scored on the survey. Would think at least one of the options would hit a 4 at least. Guess it goes to show that people are relatively content with the way things are in SV OU. Could also be people are waiting for WCOP before they try, and strive for change. Which...

Bro, without those two the meta would be unplayable. The power levels of Mons is so high this Gen that you need giant walls like Ting-Lu and Pecharunt out of necessity

Tera Blast is a part of Tera, but not the mechanic as a whole. I really don’t see why we couldn’t judge them separately. Also opportunity cost matters very little when the answer is almost always “yes, it is worth it.” Yes I’m aware of the original arguments. I was around during original Tera...

Pls don’t spite vote. Though I do agree that Dragonite should probably be suspected over Tera Blast. Tera + Tera Blast is just incompatible with Bulky DD sweepers. This has been proven time, and time again yet we’re still acting like that’s not the case. The fact that Dragonite can just run shit...

Agree, I hate how many borderline Pokemon are in the tier. The tier is basically “my stat stick vs your stat stick.” Last thing we need is another 680/700 stat stick. So let’s stop the Ubers talk unless it is in the context of a Tera Blast ban. In which case I can accept Volcarona, but that’s it.

Enjoyable - 7: I will admit by return back into SV OU has overall been a positive one. Roaring Moon ban was correct, and the game has been better for it. Competitive - 6: I can’t really comment on this since I don’t really play the game super competitively. This is mostly the score because of...

Can confirm, without a dedicated wallbreaker Mandibuzz is a pain to deal with. While Raging Bolt usage lessening might make the Buzz call a good one I'd still be weary of all the Kyurems and special Valiants running around. Just wondering how you deal with these two mons. Also you Defogging or naw?

It is a lot to ask for, but is obviously worth it considering Mons keep using it, and teams having to built around it. Think about that, you’re risking potentially making one of your mons underpowered/useless, and time and time again people keep coming to the conclusion that it’s worth the risk...

Problem with the uncompetitive argument is that Hidden Power exists in 6 generations, and I would bet most people wouldn’t call that move uncompetitive. Hidden Power rarely if ever breaks any Pokémon in these older gens. Like Volcarona is allowed to exist with HP Ground, Rock, Water, etc for...

What are ya'll doing to deal with Kyurem? Hate that thing. I find that in a attempt to find checks for Choice Spec Kyurem I end up creating massive holes in my team. Any suggestions?

I don’t see what’s so fun about Tera or Tera Blast tbh. I get the set variety thing, but at the end of the day it’s just used more often as cheese. Hidden Power has been gone for two generations now, and no one misses it. Tera Blast is just that except way more powerful, and way more parasitic...
