Scyther isn't efficient if I have to reset to get him. While I haven't personally tested him in recent time, I plan to do a test involving him, Pinsir, Sentret, and Jynx. While you can make it to 40 multiple times, it also boils down to party comp and their XP Groups (This plays quite a big...

Golem was worded poorly on my part. That's just a nom to C for it. It's been edited to reflect this. Scyther is in C due to availability, getting it on a specific day which is 5%, lasts 20 minutes, etc. There are times I have been unable to even find one in 20 minutes. Also 42 at Clair is...

I have no idea what you are trying to argue then. In Game Tier List threads work in a way your testing is not feasible. The OP has a number of mons allowed for testing that is optimal and efficient and has guidelines on who is tested. I’m pretty sure I said what I meant. We don’t replace a mon...

I didn't test Fearow. When you test, you don't replace a mon for a better option. You test the mon until the end of the test. Only in extreme circumstances may a Mon be dropped but not replaced. Besides, Spearow is objectively better than Pidgey. It's not even a competition between the two.

Apologies for the double post. I decided to refrain from making any comments about tiering until I was done with my test. The point being made here is that if you do it to Typh, you can do it to anyone. It's not efficient either as the casual person is just going to use ones that are found on...

Regardless or not, this is for GSC, not any rom hack that uses GSC as a base and shouldn’t have even been mentioned. Please keep any and all conversations relevant to the actual game we are tiering. I have no issue if you want to test a mon, but if you choose to do it here, you must abide by the...

I think you misunderstand. This doesn’t belong in this thread. You can make a separate one if the mods allows so doing the way you wish to do it. But for here, that’s a lot of unnecessary work that doesn’t need to be done in this thread at all.

This thread is under my ownership and has its own way of dealing with mons. While appreciate the enthusiasm, I would like you to refrain.

The argument went on for quite awhile. Has nothing to with “talking down or being uncivil”. Ernesto posted that because he was frustrated and said who the hell cares about Pinsir, when Pinsir was simply being used as an example in regards to why Fury Cutter is a necessity for it. This entire...

Good to know we can add a lack of reading to your set of skills. Do better. This is your first post in the thread and you want to start a fight? No thanks. Either provide constructive criticism to the argument or don’t. Not in the mood for your shenanigans.

Pinsir was being used as a comparison in regards to Fury Cutter. Glad to see that point was failed on you. Even talking here puts you in this so called "shitshow" so congrats, you are officially a part of this. While the post is informative, it hasn't really swayed my opinion that Quil is C...

I do remember. You aren't supposed to be using another Pokemon anyway when you are testing as it removes any value off that Pokemon. You can't really say "Oh, X Pokemon did well in this fight because Y Pokemon weakened, debuffed, or removed a hard check." You got outside help there and that just...

Pretty sure I said that Pinsir *REQUIRES* the TM. Giving it to Lava for even one MU hurts Pinsir for the entirety of the game. Regardless it is for one MU or not. And again, regardless if it is for only one MU, that's a negative for the mon. You use a valuable TM and toss it away immediately...

Unfortunately, it's just more than Dig, it also wants Rollout which some Pokemon would prefer to have over it. Those Pokemon can still function but they would love to have Rollout. Fury Cutter is also something Pinsir desperately wants as it enables it to sweep Whitney, Chuck, Pryce, and Clair...

My point still stands though. If I have a mon who has a terrible early and mid game and this is its turnout with the last remaining fights, I struggle to see B tier. And the fact it can't be Pryce now? That just hurts it even more imo.

While Dig does allow Lava to beat Morty, the usefulness of it is gone from thereon. There is only 1 Dig in the entire game thus it requires you to build your team in a way that only 1 mon gets it period (while yes you can clone the TM, the list is under the assumption you are not using the...

A Pidgey beats Falkner better than Cyndaquil without any healing as well if you wanna make comparisons. Besides, we rate and tier Pokemon when we get them. Abra is in time for Whitney too. It's called the Game Corner and is the recommended way to use it. (It doesn't even take that long to level...

Unfortunately, I cannot see B here at all. Falkner requires luck due to Mud Slap still, Whitney just cleans your clock if you don't get the needed Rollouts, as you said Morty is luck based and Dig is better used on a Pokemon who could actually use it. Barring the obvious MUs, Cynda just doesn't...

I should probably point out that Cyndaquil is no longer blacklisted from discussions. However, if it does get out of hand again like it did in the previous thread and earlier in this one, I'm locking discussion on it again.

It's fine to retest older mons. It just gives us a better consensus on them and pretty much makes them clear cut for that tier.
