Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Hey alexwolf on the OU viability thread it links to the old VR thread. Was just wondering if it would be possible to now link it to the new VR thread considering the old one is locked now?
Hello! Are we ever going to do it like the UU Viability Rankings where we go through by two or three Pokemon at a time and decide on a consensus of where "a and b" should be? (Also, congratulations!)
If you want some cores for the victory road forum you need more users to be able to post there (like me y/y)
Also, Tyranitar + Excadrill is not a balanced core. It's goal is to wreck the opponents team with excadrill. IMO, there's no such thing as a balanced core. You either focus on defensive counter synergy, or offensive counter synergy. Just my two cents.
Also grats on the TC man, it's been cool to see mine and yours accomplishments over the years, back from when we first met in the defense of the titans....
This might sound like a weird idea, but in place of Theorymons, what if we do theory banning? You even hear people complain that, let's say, Deoxys-S is broken and should be banned? What if we actually make a tier for this, so we can more accurately see how the tier would react to something suddenly leaving OU?
Can I ask for you to post a para of reasoning on why Weavile was moved up (and tag me in it if possible) mainly because I haven't actually seen it used in high-level play and I want to hear your take on how it fits in the meta.
