Coming from a guy who runs mostly hyper offense and bulky offense, :Volcarona: is one of my go-to’s when I need a Fairy or Ice check. And it does wonders for me in that role. I think you’re vastly undermining Volcarona’s defensive utility. I’m not saying Fairies/Ice types will go wild if its...

I wanna agree with you but ultimately we have to look at the suspect mon as a whole and that includes both pros and cons of said mon. If it brings something to the tier defensively it adds one healthy aspect to it and people are less willing to ban it. Just look at the :Kingambit: suspect test...

Funny you say that just as I just finished sweeping some guy with my tera blast dragon Volcarona lol

It really wasn’t an argument, I was stating that in a tera metagame any mon can flip the script on its counter play. Also in this gen we ban things because in the context of a tera meta we deem it too strong/uncompetitive in comparison to other OU mons. A lot these banned mons abused tera too...

Bro this is a Tera metagame almost every mon can reverse the script on their counter play.

Roaring moon can’t beat everything with just one set. It wants all of Knock Off, Acrobatics, Brick Break, Earthquake, Taunt, Outrage, Tera Blast, etc. Its much like Iron Valiant where it has the capability of beating much of the metagame but is limited between choosing 4 moves. It has to choose...

I love discourse on how to break stall. These are some great stall-breaking cores. I’ll try some of these out for myself thanks!

I thought might as well give my opinion since I’m bored. What is your top 5? In order. :dragapult: :Kingambit: :great tusk: :Ogerpon Wellspring: :Zamazenta: (slot 5 can arguably be :slowking galar:) Who’s the most overrated mon in OU? i’d say :skarmory: or :Primarina: Who’s the most underrated...

There’s a slight chance it may rise. I think it might just miss the cutoff tho. I feel like its a good mon, as outspeeding the whole meta is always great. Lead hazard sets are decent and :Life Orb: mixed wall breaker sets have almost no switch-ins. The problem with deoxys-speed is that it has no...

I think :volcanion: , :weezing-galar:, and :deoxys-speed: are decent in the meta although I dont see them rising.

It literally is Mr. 50/50. Of course theres counterplay but every game that its a part of, it creates 50-50 situations caused by sucker punch mind games. A majority of people did want to ban it at 55%, but it didnt reach the 60% ban threshold just like Kyurem.

Gouging Fire: Ban

In my personal opinion if Gholdengo wasnt in Gen 9 we wouldn’t be having this discourse of not being able to remove hazards. The only other ghost to block rapid spin in OU is dragapult after all. Imo if Good as Gold wasnt an ability we would have defog usage.

I can agree that dealing with Gholdengo as pokemon is no problem. It’s easy to kill and manageable on the defensive side. The issue lies with its contribution to the hazard control problem. Without Golden Joe, Defog would actually be viable in OU thus giving us more tools to fight against...

no bs SRN made a really great post on how to get reqs. Following his guide helped me get reqs. https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/sv-ou-metagame-discussion-v4-archaludon-is-now-banned.3732644/post-9959782 Also another tip that some other user whose name I forgot gave some really good...
