    I don't know if this is just a lowladder phenomenon, but it's really getting insane how many teams are relying on paralysis. Like running t-wave on :clefable: or :ribombee:, then glare on :serperior:, then also having static :zapdos:. It's more annoying than anything, especially since so many of...

    Just wanted to post my thoughts here as well since I've now got the chance to play 15 games or so: I've ran both rain and sand teams, and both of them feel nice. Rain I think is the better archetype since you have a better setter in Pelipper, as well as some good abusers like Barraskewda. It...

    If Incineroar becomes popular in OU, I wonder if people will begin to run Defiant/Competitive pokemon more often to counter the Intimidate/Parting Shot shenanigans. Milotic and Empoleon are the only really viable Competitive users, but this would help them a lot given that they both have good...

    Can confirm Glowking is really nice right now. Haven't tried it with Garg yet, but I've been running AV with both psychock and future sight to surprise some specially bulky mons. As you say, partnering with Rilla is awesome, but I find that Tusk really appreciates it taking many of the special...

    I do agree with you for the most part that a Ghold ban is not going to solve the issue in and of itself. But I do think that it's worth noting that incremental changes to the metagame to limit how overbearing spinblocking and removal feels, is fundamentally a good thing. Tusk and Corv in...

    I've recently been trying out Rotom-W along with Choice Band Meowscarada. I've been running with scarf and trick to try to cripple one of Meow's checks per game, then it's free to pivot around with Meow, spreading burns where it can. I have to say it's not too impressive at the moment, but it...

    I wouldn't be surprised as well, I've had several games where it felt borderline impossible to stop due to this set. Any steel gets obliterated by this thing. On the other hand though, there's been games where my opponent didn't manage to support it properly and it got taken out before it could...
