    OU Lopunny [QC 3/3] [GP 2/2]

    small nitpick "Walled by most physically defensive Pokemon and overral rather ineffective against defensive teams." Don't the Substitute variants mitigate this as Substitute + PuP/Encore really hinder their ability to effectively handle MLopunny?

    Other ORAS OU Viability Ranking Thread - Check post #2359

    I don't think Azelf needs to drop to a ranking lower than B- since its high base Speed, access to Stealth Rock, Screens, Taunt and a few select coverage moves make Azelf efficient as a suicide lead. C ranking demands that the suspect pokemon is too heavily burdened by its flaws to perform...

    Other ORAS Metagame Discussion

    Since we're on the topic of the suspect ladder ... CM Clefable has always had a strong presence in sixth generation OU, thanks to its newly acquired Fairy-typing. However, as we all know, Gunk Shot Greninja was introduced in ORAS and the one Pokemon that used to be set-up fodder became CM...

    Just a little sidenote : I've been running through the suspect ladder with CM Clefable and just like chimpact pointed out, it's strong and difficult to stop. However, Clefable isn't entirely self-sufficient as Pokemon such as Heatran and Bisharp either counter or check Clefable ( but should you...

    careful, as greninja has an easy time ripping through "would-be" answers with the appropriate coverage move. Subject 18 Edit: Removed stuff

    np: ORAS OU Suspect Testing, Round 1 - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles [Greninja is Uber]

    In all honesty, I was on the fence about Greninja's potential ban but after playing a few matches and reading through some quality shit posting here, I think the only inevitable outcome for Greninja at this point is a ban. Honestly, this thread has quickly evolved into a shitpool of "Greninja...

    There's a very strong majority that supports a ban on Greninja and a small minority that supports otherwise. Personally I'm still on the fence about banning Greninja and I'll try to keep the bias to a minimum. Here's just some things I thought I'd bring up, more out of curiosity than anything...

    Aggressive "GG"ing

    When I can foresee my defeat in ~5 turns, I say "gg" to the opponent and proceed to pull off every single crit, scald burn, iron head flinch, ice beam freeze and thunder wave para, all the way to victory. [:

    I'll give King Shield the slash.

    Mega Lopunny is one specific Pokemon in this case. While it is quite relevant in OU, I don't think it alone merits enough reason to slash in King's Shield. Considering the stiff competition for Mega slots, I find it hard for Smeargle's to be particularly troubled by Mega Lopunny. U-Turn users...

    Can you explain other benefit's of King's Shield that make it moveslot worthy? I just want enough justification to differentiate it from other moves that it can use.
