Ever since the cinderace ban. The metagame has changed so much that its hard to believe we can have a meta like this. From my experience, the ladder battles are no longer about who can beat cinderace and the rest of the team. Its less Match up oriented but at the same time, Match up matters. But...

Ok. The results are in and... I am ok with it and being somewhat ok with it but I do have some counter points in quick banning certain mons and how some of those mons are not as overbearing to the meta then what we think. G-Darm: Despite how offensively good this mon is, its a lot more easier...

After reading some more about things... The method in which a wave of bands will be a good start but I am not sure its going to be the best way. However, I cannot come up with a better way. Also, please ignore my previous post. But let get down to the meat now that I actually READ things within...

I will say it as it is when it comes to the way I see. I play National Dex on a daily basis because I love the the concept of this metagame. However, I canot ignore the state of the metagame because I will be honest. Its completely out of wack and it can get seriously sweaty and nobody wants to...

Ok. Let me be honest with this thread, we do have some lefts, rights and in the middle but I am going to give an analytical say so into this G-Darmanitan: This mon is something to be feared and watched out for? But is it suspect worthy? Not exactly but it does have the potential because of a...

Ok, Ok, Ok. Hippowdon is the mon of the day? Well alright. Time to crack a can of analyzing and see the big picture. I don't have much to say for hippowdon but I do have a lot to say about the two teams. The fact that SputnikGT's team has a mega evolution and a Z move user makes his team the all...

When comparing the two teams and doing some theory crafting... I have to admit that these two teams are nasty and dangerous without the right mons to check each mon on the team. When it comes to the first team, its a fast team with a lot of speed control, a good amount of breakers with a good...

Be warned, this my first post. When it comes to the National Dex OU metagame, its clear that the trio of terror are running the defensive answers to the metagame. As for me, I have had my fair share of clapping these threats and being clapped by them by players and Hax. But lets go over why...
