    Ladder Monotype [Read post #393 for Tiering Updates]

    I think the best way for us to move forwards, regardless of our initial ideas about what should and should exist in the metagame, is to rather create a ranking system for the different types (You could do frequency of them on the top ladder, but that can be difficult to identify at times), to...

    I don't know why your counterpoint to him was to cite two very uncommon type combinations that don't compliment each other in the slightest. Let's go ahead and note a few other Pokemon if we're doing that: Steel/Bug, Dark/Poison, Ghost/Dark. Each of these type combinations have exactly one...

    In regards to Drizzle+Swift Swim, I play a Psychic Mono and I personally can not handle this combination, and I know I'm the only psychic user that struggles with it.. We can look at these different monos to see what exactly they can do and will do in regards to water monos. Looking initially...

    While we may not all agree with the fact that the decisions was done without a suspect test, there have been instances of Quick Bans within other metas. The reason people will be upset about this Quick Ban is that most Suspect Tests are led with discussion like the discussion that occurred...
