I was originally leaning more towards DNB when this suspect was announced, but after giving it come careful thought I think I'm firmly in the opposite camp now. Which is ironic, considering I thought this thing was gonna be ass when the DLC first released; I will gladly hold that L. Stall isn't...

I'll take Kommo-o Approved - Setsu

I'd really like to see Jimothy Cool vs. BKC in a BO5 but each player gets an old gen meta they helped popularize with an invitational as a single counterpick. Jimothy Cool gets an ADV OU counterpick and BKC gets a DPP Ubers counterpick. Maybe it's a stretch, but ANYTHING to revive these.

Well, for what it's worth, it was explicitly brought up in the tiering survey. If it's being discussed in an official tiering survey, I don't think discussing the mon in some capacity is necessarily a bad idea (even if it is possibly an outlandish mon).

Obviously when the survey results are in we'll have some more detailed numbers, but if Bax got more support than Chien-Pao (I'm assuming this was HOME Chien-Pao) that's really impressive, considering Pao got a 4.3 for the overall playerbase and a 4.6 for the qualified playerbase. Like, I agree...

I can't believe that the Council is emergency voting to keep Miraidon banned.

Sharing my own survey responses: Metagame enjoyability: 5/10 I like the new stuff, but I have a lot of issues with the current meta (as is always the case with a brand new meta). I'll elaborate on this regarding individual mons. Metagame balance: 2/10 This meta is an absolute mess right now...

This isn't the argument you think it is. Last generation, Snow didn't exist; Hail did, and Hail offered zero defensive benefits for some solid abusers. If Alolan Ninetales got Snow instead of Hail last gen, people would've clamored for a Kyurem ban VERY quickly, SD Weavile would've been quite...

I said what I said. I think Encore holds up even against stuff like Ceaseless Edge and Salt Cure (two meta-warping, gamechanging moves in their own right) and is better than Dire Claw (something that some relevant mons don't have to fully deal with). Last Respects, Rage Fist, and Last Respects...

I think Encore is also worth considering as a 4th move option on some Ogerpon sets. It's arguably the best move in the game this gen (mons like Valiant, H-Samurott, and now Alolan Ninetales are proving this plenty as is) but I think Ogerpon can do a nice job abusing the move thanks to that base...

Yeeeeah this thing's probably getting banned after this discovery LMAO This thing effectively has base 154 Attack or something after factoring in what these masks do, and Hearthflame has by FAR the best ability and coverage of the bunch.

Been playing a bit of the ladder as well as some room tour shenanigans and here are some of my impressions: :baxcalibur: Yeah, this thing is miserable to play against at the moment, and I think it's 100% banworthy, but I don't think we should address it until the meta's about a week old or so...

I think that's a fair assessment. I was mostly looking at it from a "hey, I can hit Pex and Dondozo in one moveslot" perspective, but I think Psychic+Energy Ball should cover those fine enough as is. I think Stored Power on a RestTalk Take Heart set might be really dangerous though; that set...

This thing got perhaps the most bizarre and unexpected stat distribution in a hot minute. It seems decent, but the regular Ursaluna is already a mon that's quite hard to use and this one has the unique honor of actually needing multiple turns of setup to get going. That being said, Vacuum Wave...

Veil teams with Baxcalibur+Manaphy+some other generic setup sweepers will go nuts thanks to this guy's support. Honestly, I'm so upset that Baxcalibur got buffed so heavily as is; I feel like something between Aurora Veil and Baxcalibur will inevitably have to be addressed.

Did Manaphy get picked up yet? If not, I'd be interested. Approved - Setsu
