    Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion v4

    Theres enough reasonable counterplay to balance to prevent a wellspring ogerpon ban from making it broken, generation 9 is still one of the most offense based metagames in recent memory and the hypothetical ban of a powerful wallbreaker will not be enough to change that. There are also other...

    Sun isn’t too hot rn (pun totally intended), but one of its highlight pokemon rn is venusaur, which is one of the best chlorophyll mons in the game with growth + giga drain shenanigans and is a great weather baller, it can also use solar beam on non life orb sets to unleash total devastation on...

    Resource SV ZU Viability Rankings

    A+ -> A- The evil is starting to be vanquished, with the return of Porygon 2, Jolteon has been easier to counter due to Porygon 2’s special bulk and ability to trace volt absorb to gain an electric immunity making it nearly impossible for Jolteon to break through even with multiple Calm Mind...

    I never said anything about sweeping with araquanid… since it doesn’t even hit hard enough for pokemon with no way of boosting its attack to sweep,i even said “the main incentive using for webs in gen 9 OU is never the setter itself” I was merely talking about how its consistency in allowing...

    An almost 2hko is a noteworthy feat given that this is Ting Lu after all and Araquanid is the most consistent web setter in OU, but the main incentive using for webs in gen 9 OU is never the setter itself given that some use ribombee, but rather it enabling you to potentially sweep by just...

    Data Usage-Based Tier Update for July 2025

    My quick thoughts PU players can’t stop stealing from ZU, why did they take BOTH qwilfishes, why did they take grafaiai when its B- rank there, why did they take ANOTHER floatzel check? Porygon 2 is back in ZU tho, so jolteon won’t be broken anymore About damn time damn galarian weezing rose...

    Another thing worth noting is that the go to check for offensive water types are water absorb pokemon, and just who’s the best water absorber in the tier right now? Manaphy is also been stronger recently because of its sub tail glow sets which are just bulky enough to often keep their...

    I’m fan of this particular set Garchomp @ Clear Amulet Ability: Rough Skin Tera Type: Ground EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Swords Dance - Spikes - Earthquake - Stone Edge Its the typical swords dance breaker which pressures defensive cores but also uses spikes to...

    Greetings to you all, I come here to express the belief that Manaphy is extremely underrated due to its movepool which includes tail glow, a status curing calm mind, scald and u-turn along with solid stats across the board, I personally find it crazy that it isn’t even UU by usage given its...

    The meta has generally settled, gamefreak won’t be dropping any new mons to mess stuff up and nothing is receiving support for an immediate suspect test Maybe a future test for wellspring could change some parts of the meta but apart from that, this seems to be how the metagame will stay for now

    Whilst defensive mons tend to struggle more compared to offensive pokemon in this tier due to its high power level and the sheer power of some wallbreakers, Bulky playstyles are still very much viable as long as they aren’t passive stall which is exploitable due to its lack of any offense or...

    Metagame NP ZU Stage 14: Firestarter

    I personally believe Mow Rotom is the biggest offender in this tier due to how frequently its gets to pivot around for free since anything that wants to absorb the electric move like ground types, lanturn and jolteon does not want to take a leaf storm, especially since jolteon is frail and needs...

    i watched the wolver ine deadpool movie

    Deadpool, wolver and ine are the best trio in recent film, their chemistry is insane and its crazy how they all bounce off each other

    Ting lu is very bulky and can efficently get hazards onto the field, but its lack of reliable recovery makes it unable to repeatably shrug hits without rest which is very exploitable, its defensive typing gives multiple unfavourable weaknesses like fighting, water, ice and fairy whilst also...
