    Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion v4

    Tera Ghost is by far the best offensive Tera Type - I’d say the only ones that come close are Fairy, Flying and Water for universal “Goodness”. Everyone’s packing answers for Tera Steel now from the type’s near omnipresence whereas nobody’s clicking sludge bomb for predicted Fairy Tera

    Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion v4

    More to the point, what walls are you crippling with Toxic other than Blissey? Gliscor doesn't care, Great Tusk is better burned or Pumped, Iron Crown doesn't care and switches out, Roaring moon is better burned, Dondozo gets Volt Switched or T'bolted for massive damage, and Clodsire and...

    Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion v4

    I don't see this working - Rotom Wash tricks scarf because it's good at abusing it and offhanding it to potential walls. Toxic orb cripples your own Washtom permanently with no benefits if you cannot click Trick turn 1 against something (e.g. Gholdengo, switching in Washtom against Gliscor who...

    Real question is how long will it be before we are ran over by Okidogi’s meteoric rise from RU and have to ban it to Ubers

    Resource SV OU Indigo Disk Viability Ranking Thread - (update on post #1002))

    Hi there - if you're nominating unranked mons to the viability list you need to submit replays showing how they performed in mid-to-high ladder.

    Data Usage-Based Tier Update for July 2024 (August @ #38) (September @ #52)

    Heatran is a famously versatile mon that can fit on a huge array of teams and Skarmory can get by on spikes teams. While Zapdos may be departing it's going to hate the fiery frog even more than the Thunderbird.

    So he provides a source and evidence to back up his point and your reaction is "LOL I can't be bothered anymore." Weak. Anyway I have to agree that Sinistcha and Iron Crown have both been pulling their weight in my OU matches. Iron Crown is a fast and surprisingly bulky Future Sight User and...

    Data Usage-Based Tier Update for January 2024

    You say they're outdated... And then propose to use tiers with a lower cutoff.

    Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion v4

    Unbanning Darkrai is a single mon that had the speculation and calcs to be turn out balanced (at least at time of writing), but banning Tera would be a seismic change that would upend the entire metagame. It'd be on the level of banning Permanent Weather from Gen 5 OU. And frankly, that's a few...
