    The Ninetales had manual Sunny Day, and the rest of the team was a cookie-cutter Sun team, so I'd guess it was just a mistake

    Other Current Metagame trends

    I apologize if this isn't the kind of trend that this thread is looking for, but a trend that I'm noticing in the current metagame is the drop in the importance of Choice Scarf usage and the rise of priority's. Ever since its implementation, the Choice Scarf has been a staple in competitive...

    Other XY OU Victim of the Week [WEEK 6 (Read post #181)]

    This one was really tough given Mega Garchomp's crazy offensive power, but this Suicune set checks it pretty well. Suicune @ Leftovers Ability: Pressure Calm 252 HP / 252 SpD / 4 SpA -Substitute -Calm Mind -Scald -Ice Beam I picked Suicune because of its amazing unboosted defensive...

    It just struck me as weird to see. Heatran has a ton of better moves to be running, and the only things that Dragon Pulse hits hard are dragons. Plus, Heatran can run HP Ice to get past them and Ground-types with the same move.

    A guy I just battled had Headbutt Gyarados, Blizzard Azumarill, and Discharge Galvantula. And earlier I saw a Choice Scarf Smeargle. Which proceeded to use Stealth Rock.

    SwagPlay, evaluating potential bans (basic definition of "uncompetitive" in OP)

    I'm attacking the relevance of your arguments not because I know I'm wrong (and opinions can't be wrong), but because they are irrelevant and you and I both know that. Actually suggesting to use Numel, a pokemon who is barely viable in LC and absolutely useless in OU, is ridiculous and you know...

    SwagPlay, evaluating potential bans (basic definition of "uncompetitive" in OP)

    Alright, let's do that. Everyone who actually enjoys playing the game as it was meant to be played, which is on a level playing field only affected by the skill of the two players, are for the ban. But since we're looking at people in this forum, let's also look at the people being deliberately...

    SwagPlay, evaluating potential bans (basic definition of "uncompetitive" in OP)

    No, you're absolutely right. Why should we use very superior abilities just so we can counter SwagPlay? I'm pretty sure the community would love having to run Own Tempo over Regenerator on Slowbro and Slowking, or Swift Swim or Rain Dish on Ludicolo, or Chlorophyll on Lilligant, or Sturdy on...

    My first OU team.

    First things first, you're gonna want to make your descriptions longer or the mods will lock this thread. Second, your Charizard set is pretty strange. I'd suggest running this one instead: Charizard @ Charizardite Y Ability: Drought Timid 252 SpA / 252 Spe / 4 SpD -Fire Blast -Solar Beam...

    Except in the case that I mentioned above, the Charizard in question did not have Choice Specs or Solar Power, and sun was not up.
