You mean two LO Stone Edges and one with Reflect. Aero is in. Mega switches in, Aero SEs. Aero SEs, Mega Reflects. Aero SEs, Mega Synths. She can survive that and Aero just took 30% plus SR from his earlier switch in. If he ever wants to Roost, he's screwed by whomever he's in front of.

Who cares? So he goes first. He still cannot kill Meganium while she feels free to Recover, Reflect, Seed, Sub, or a million other annoying and damaging things, potentially things that can help Meganium's team. And if Aero has to put Roost on to combat his residual damages, now you see he...

This is not the way to combat chance. You don't just make concessions here and there on things that bugged you once. You must go all or nothing, otherwise you might as well just play the original game. These can be divided by their rarity of chance. As a general rule, small chances should be...

Lastly, CB max attack Aero is only one variation and arguably not his best. I don't quite understand umb's point, I mean any sweeper will trash you if all your walls are at 50%. Any sweeper will pick the rest up if you mispredict badly. Aero has no place in these arguments since any pokemon can...

I agree, removing 1/6th of their team is nothing at all. Especially when their Infernape is the only thing that scares my other pokemon and it's now dead.

My only comment is to not forget intimidators as counters to Aero. Granbull, Luxray, Hitmontop, and even Mawile can screw with it just by showing up. All have ~90 base defense with variable (low) HP. 'Top is usually the best since Aero has no good flying STAB and ice/rock/dark are resisted...

I have other pokemon to switch into a predicted EQ, namely ones with offense that could use the free turn better. Heatproof is fine; helps him counter a different group.

Yeah, UU is more centralized my ass. I love statistics and numbers. *pores over*

It's easier to build a bullshit team that will win into the top 10% with just Heatran, Celebi, T-Tar, Chomp, Zapdos, and filler. It's harder to build an original team that does anything other than get stomped.

wat I just came up with that on the fly. And not sure how this is even a criticism.

Yeah, and if you excite him you get to Surf. Yackity smackity doo. Pretty decent story. Kinda reminded me of two cavemen alternating beating the other with a club, not a whole lot of strategy or even switching.

I'd love some wholesale renaming to finally end this pointless confusion. Uber -> "All" or "Top banlist" OU -> "Top" BL -> "Middle banlist" UU -> "Middle" Limbo -> "Bottom banlist" NU -> "Bottom" Though I agree with the futility sentiment. Then again, as obvious as this whole deal is, I'm...

This is explained perfectly. Though I'm starting to sense it doesn't matter how many times it is repeated. It's unbalanced. It's not meant to be a tier alone, only a banlist and as such is expected to contain both the light bans and the very serious bans concurrently.

Well, I for one remain fully behind Obi's proposal and genuine effort to get some real definition to the competitive tier below OU (whatever we're calling it today). We have a ladder, we have some willingness, there's no reason to be pedantic about UU when we have never formally tested it with...

Wow, a great warstory. 5 stars, 10/10, etc.

The next x% of usage outside the OU cap?

OU is boring. Every team is the same.

These are amazing. Pretty expensive though.

Unless of course the 'Fable is an encorer herself, and many are. I know mine is. Warping has bad connotation. She doesn't 6-0 like Garchomp does nor is she deadweight like Shedinja in the sand. Somewhere in between. Personally I think she fits fine, a high-tier UU.

Clefable is like a UU Blissey that can attack. It never fucking dies ever and runs from every predictable fighter switch-in. Use with Drifblim and away you go. There's my experience using and fighting her in a nutshell.
