"I just saw a Kingler. Lord help me. It was okay tho, I OHKO'd it on the switch with Power Whip from my physical Venusaur." - some random on PS, in his mind.

5GAAG season [insert season we are on here]. 5GAAG has no synergy and it LITERALLY just hyperoffense. But guess what? Test out the team in old UU, and it does well. Same phenomenon -- basically people see unsynergetic HO and piss themselves in fear. Fear makes people misplay.

U-Ralph, as his team has the best overall synergy without being overly dependent on each other to the point of a breakdown if one of the wheels comes off of the track.

Hey, don't even hate on Magma Storm. It is a REALLY nice move, regardless of its accuracy. Also, Tormentran. I use it all the time but I NEVER try it when another Heatran is still standing. Apparently my opponent didnt get the memo, and got destroyed by my offensive one.

Mega Badass thread? AWW YEAH. OT: I personally hold off evolving this one more than any other. Because Flying is not exactly fantastic defensively, getting my SD in base Pinsir forme is often times the best alternative. For example, staring down a Conkeldurr who predicts the Mega and uses Ice...

Chansey and Blissey are both very good at supporting their team. I use them on stall teams to counter opposing stall, and they are rarely dead weight in that case. Also, Cresselia is nice team support, although idk if I would call it a cleric, persay, although Lunar Dance KINDA counts.

Celebi Sylveon Blissey Chansey Umbreon Probably more but I can't think of them as I only use those 5. They are all very good @ what they do. Also he moved it because it did seem, at first glance, that it was meant to be UU. Regardless, it didn't belong in "Other Metagames."

Well-known strategy in SwagPlay already. It is used on better teams alongside 3-4 swagplayers and Mega sweeper as a tertiary (did i use da rite term) win condition.

I legitimately forgot about Lanturn, who loses a lot of utility with Confusion bans. Also, I used a Confuse Ray Spiritomb in generation 5, and I know Ninetales uses it a lot on more defensive sets.

Umbreon can use it as a way to supplement its poor damage output or give it time to set up, Mandibuzz can use it as a way to boost its damage and psuedo-phaze the opponent, and there are other options. Sure, it isn't standard on everything, but it isn't broken unless in tandem with Prankster...

When was this widely agreed upon? I never agreed upon that. Swagger makes some pokemon viable where they otherwise are not. However, in tandem with a certain ability, it can be bad for the game. You are taking your opinion as fact and acting as though we all agree with you, which I, for one, do not.

The problem with that is MegaLucario was a problem even unboosted, albeit not as much, and nothing else used Lucarionite. It literally has one user, so the effects are not as widespread as Prankster or Swagger. There are Pokemon that legitimately use Swagger and are not broken. There are not...

Funniest things I have seen in OU? WELL... Before I knew Slurpuff got unburden, I got swept hard by a belly drum one. Then the guy called me a "bloody fruit" and forfeited vs Heatran.

Rotom is already in every other team, and has been for a long time. He is a good mon regardless of his ability to counter SwagPlay. He will always, barring a significant meta shift, be one of the greatest Pokemon there are due to just how versitile he is. If that wasn't blatantly obvious before...

Here is where I am kinda stuck. On one hand, you are always going to have standard. There is a reason they are standard; they are the best tools at your disposal. To deny them just to be original is not competitive, it is not trying to win, it is trying to be stylish. ON THE OTHER HAND, there is...
