Tera: No and No, tera doesn't feel broken at all right now and the defensive layer it provides is something I really like. Not going to go too in depth here because I'm open to ideas concerning tera but I don't think it's broken atm.
Sleep: 5 (not going to elaborate btw it's getting repetitive)
Kyurem: 3 (close to 4)
I think Kyurem is a really strong mon that is probably broken, and I almost gave it a 4, but I'm giving it a 3. A lot of people complain about the specs sets, but I think specs Kyurem is mid as hell, yes you kill things but bro literally dies to hazards. You 2 shot pretty much everything but balance teams can switch into it at least once, which is sometimes enough to punish the mon. That being said, there are some sets that are genuinely pretty concerning when it comes to Kyurem, but they use boots. I think what really makes this mon potentially banworthy is the boots set and the fact that it can freeze fish kinda easily, but the best Kyurem set can be a bit subjective and maybe I'm being controversial by calling the specs Kyurem set the most mid set.
The first set is scale shot + 3 special attacks, it's kinda popular but also not the most common set, it's pretty good and can still do enough damage to force some answers like Clefable to be in a sort of passive limbo where if the mon tries to play more actively it could die too soon, but if you play to passively, it could get frozen. Really hard to play around when it does this shit:
252 SpA Kyurem Freeze-Dry vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Clefable: 126-148 (31.9 - 37.5%) -- 0.2% chance to 3HKO after Leftovers recovery
252 SpA Kyurem Ice Beam vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Clefable: 160-190 (40.6 - 48.2%) -- guaranteed 3HKO after Leftovers recovery
Yeah you're gonna be clicking moonlight a ton against boots Kyurem, but you can sort of play around it I guess by being more aggressive.
The second set is just flat out underexplored and for no good reason really. Here's a set that I like:
Kyurem @ Heavy Duty Boots/Leftovers
Ability: Pressure
Tera Type: Ground
EVs: 56 HP / 252 SpA / 200 Spe
Timid Nature
- Substitute
- Freeze-Dry
- Earth Power
- Rock Slide/Ice Beam
This set might look really wack and the option of using leftovers might seem weird, but item aside, I think this is one of the best sets in my opinion because it does really well into some rain teams. You can substitute on some mons like Pelipper and then just take a kill which is pretty nice. Rock slide even allows you to own Volcarona or at least force it to tera which would otherwise own boots Kyurem sets.
Under normal circumstances I would give this thing probably a 4, but I think sleep and Archaludon should come first as well as the fact that it can do well against rain is something that's honestly pretty nice right now; if it can punish rain I'll be a bit lenient on it for now. Again, I don't think this mon will stay a 3 in my books for very long, as soon as rain goes I could see this thing easily being a 4 or honestly a 5, or maybe people experiment more with the fact that rain becomes less of a factor and it stays a genuine 3 (unlikely but I can't predict how the metagame will go). If you want to argue this mon is a 4 or a 5, I won't disagree with you because honestly it can be frustrating to play against at times.
Gouging Fire: 3
Mon can kinda own teams but also I think the reason why it's so strong into some teams is that there's not enough variety that can be done in balance, I think more variety would allow people to fit answers like Dondozo a lot easier, but it definitely feels pretty strong for sure. This one I would put as a genuine 3, I wouldn't really give this mon a 4 or a 5, I don't see it being a 5 but I can see it being a 4.
Roaring Moon: 2
Yeah taunt sets are probably the most broken set, otherwise Skarmory dumpsters it, but is it really that bad? It's not like Roaring Moon wants to tera and then take like half of its HP against Skarmory just to get ice sharded by like a Weavile, I just feel like normally that's not a great trade. Non-taunt sets aren't broken, walled by Skarmory which honestly is really good on balance right now anyways.
Archaludon: 5
Join the fucking wave guys down with Big Rain™ Investments. Show them their place.
Okay but actually rain is a busted playstyle that's carried by this mon. I agree with
Akalli pretty much that it's a no skill cheap ass mon that always goes at least 1 for 1.
Gholdengo: 5
Fuck this mon lol
Okay hear me out, we ban Gholdengo so people can use more Corviknight balances and people get more options for balance teams instead of Skarm Ting/Gliscor Meow/Weavile. That would be really fire ngl because Corviknight is a baller mon that feels like it can own an entire team centered around hstack if there is no Gholdengo.
Kingambit: 2
Can be annoying with its sweepies but honestly tera feels even more balanced than it already is, all balances at this point in time have a built in check in Skarmory, so you don't need to account for it nearly as much as you used to. Nice ghost resist too and I like more darks in the tier because the ghost type feels broken without them. If Gholdengo gets banned I could see the idea of a Kingambit ban get entertained though.
Deoxys-Speed: 1
Get his ass off the surveys oh my god he literally needs to beat the mid allegations because all people ever do with him is make him get up rocks and watch him fucking die
Anything else: Tera blast ban probably tbh, not that impactful but I'm open to that ban. Don't think it's necessary rn tho but I would be supportive of it. I didn't wanna say Yes and No on tera because I feel like tera blast is a bit separate than what the first question was asking, I don't want any major restrictions to tera.

), or Alomomola on tren (
). They're good, but without Unaware (or Magic Guard in Clef's case) they'd all be UU at best
