    I'd like to nominate Metagross from unranked to D. He has a pretty cool AV set which consists of pursuit zen headbutt bullet/meteormash/ and hammer arm. With an assault vest he's an AMAZING trapper of the Lati twins and can also check Mega Venusaur. It also allows him to beat Thundurus 1 on 1...

    whers the trick room attacker set that functions similar to slowbro?

    The reason to drop Landorus-Therian to A rank is because it's outclassed by Landorus. Apart that the two can't be used on the same team. However, his role are not comparable because as a physiucal attacker, Landorus-T is superior to Landorus. Which means that they fit on completely different...

    Sooo about my previous Sooooo.... about Rotom-H, is he moving up? Because he is definately more useful than the rest of the guys in C+ and arguably the guys in B- (Mega Absol is ranked above him... really?) Rotom-H deserves at least B- maybe even B

    Id like to nominate Rotom-H for B- rank. He checks a TON of the top threats in the tier such as Charizard-y, Aegislash, Thundurus, Pinsir, Skarmory, Mamoswine, Scizor Talonflame, and the mighty Mega Mawile. He does have flaws like a Stealth Rocks weakness but despite this is still a fantastic...

    Also Thundurus has a crippling Stealth Rock weakness which makes him worse than Heliolisk as a specs attacker. Manectric takes up a mega slot and doesnt hit as hard as a specs Heliolisk would.

    He .also has a better ovepool than Raikou as he can run Grass Knot and Hp ice at the same time while Raikou has to choose Hp ice or grass which means he can't kill gliscor and quagsire at the same time, 2 pokes which otherwise wall Raikou.

    Heliolisk is a super underrated poke with an incredible water immunity allowing him to check a great number of Water Pokemon such as Azumaril, Manahpy, and Suicune and Rotom-W. He's a great hit and run attacker by abusing specs and is better than any other electric type at this role. With Specs...

    Where's the Trick Room set?

    Okay first off Bisharps sucker punch won't even hit it if he's setting up layers and layers of hazards ... Deo-s isn't broken cause he can't be killed he's broken cause he guarantees hazards and can also be a revenge killer without a scarf. Also if mega Mawile uses sub and SD he loses out on...

    .. Okay this is crazy. There's no way Mega Mawile should be S rank when Bisharp is A+ rank. Sure Mega Mawile is powerful, but his crippling weaknesses to common ground and fire moves not mention a dismal 50 speed stat are greats flaws that are easy to exploit. First off, due to his low speed...

    Just cause the Pokemon that beat are common doesn't mean Bisharp isn't incredibly broken. Azumarill and Talonflame countered Blazekin does that mean Blazekin wasn't broken? Also Bisharps poor special bulk doesn't mean anything cause he OHKOES special attackers with sucker punch before they can...

    It's really not that hard to SD with Bisharp ... All you have to do is utilize his incredible Dark/Steel typing and come in on a choiced locked poke that can't hurt him or a poke that can't hurt him anyway, SD and sweep. The difference between him and other sweepers is that his priority move IS...
  14. Other XY OU Viability Ranking Thread (V2) (Last update on post #5189)

    One dimensional are you kidding me? He has the SD set, Pursuit trapping set, Substitute set, and Taunt set. He's a very unpredictable and versatile threat that OHKOES a HUGE portion of the metagame at +2 and 2HKOES the rest. Not to mention he has priority stronger than Arceus and can't even be...

    Also, if outclassed mons aren't going to have a rank, I don't see why at all Blissey still has a rank as Chancey clearly almost completely outclasses him. Chancey is far better at what he does than Blissey is and is far better over Blissey than Manectric, Raikou, and Tundurus are than Heliolisk...

    Darmanitan has all the coverage needs and doesn't mind not having bolt strike because Flare Blitz 2HKOES almost ALL Bulky Water types anyway. And while Darmanitan may not have Extremespeed like Entei, Entei doesnt have U-turn meaning one isn't 100% better than the other. Darmanitan is also...
  17. Other XY OU Viability Ranking Thread (V2) (Last update on post #5189)

    True, but Darmanitan makes up in that through his raw power and just overall higher base attack stat which means his U-turns hit harder than Victini's. He also has EQ to OHKO Heatran which neither of them do, while also having rock slide to form the SlideQuake Coverage combo.

    Sooo I've looked over the rankings and it find it insane how Darmanitan isn't even ranked viable... I think none of us can deny Darmanitan's INCREDIBLE wallbreaking capabilities, 2HKOing and even OHKOing some of the most impenetrable walls in the OU tier: 252+ Atk Choice Band Sheer Force...

    The difference between Sylveon an Florges and Heliolisk and the other electrics (Raikou/thundurus/Mane) is that they don't 100% completele outclass Heliolisk. None of these other electrics has a water immunity. Using each of them has their own advantages and drawbacks.

    Thats what im saying If a raikou was against that manaphy that was boosted it would have lost but if heliolisk faced a venasur it would have lost. THey are DIfferent POkemon who win and lose against differen pokemon. One is not better than the other nor does one outclass the other. They are ALL...
