I want staraptor back now that they are there I miss my birdy Black Ace
 
i think Rhyperior can do some hurting to Cresselia.

immune to Twave + SE Megahorn will be nice.

sure Cress can Ice Beam, but without some boosts, it's going to take time to wear down Rhyperior. especially if you're using a Specially bulky Careful one like i do sometimes.

and i love PZ in OU, so this should be interesting. Silk Scarf +2 Adaptability PZ 2HKO's Blissey with SR damage, so Chansey should be no problem at all.
 
Oh good I get to use Flame Orb Cress in UU now... Mwhahahaha.

P-Z's drop wasn't surprising... Hate to say it, but Cressy's drop was not surprising either, but I rarely see any other leaderboard players use her in OU...
 
Heracross is by far one of my favorite Pokemon of all time but his usage is so low....If he is moved to UU he may gain popularity and eventually become a suspect and go back to OU with a huge noticability

Would go to BL, not OU. Unless it gets it's usage up.

We can nominate it for Suspect in 6 weeks. Other than that, we can't do anything about it.
 
not to get anyones hopes up, but cresselia could possibly be banned in less than 6 weeks time. During stage 3 deoxys-e was removed very quickly because it was EXTREMELY obvious that it was uber.

If everyone uses cresselia and it is proved that it is broken as hell it could possibly be removed before the 6 weeks time

Well, yeah, but Cresselia is no Deoxys. I doubt the emergency removal will be necessary.

I'm sorry but this post is absolute non sence one nasty plosts don't matter if cress gets up a light screen or t-waves your houndoom in and then proceeds to cm up on you.

You severely underestimate Houndoom's power. Who would be dumb enough to switch Houndoom in during Cress's T-Wave? It would be a revenge switch. All it has to do is come in, throw up a sub while Cress uses Light Screen, and NP. +2 LO Dark Pulse 2HKOs Cress with no SpD investment and a screen up.

And many people think hazers will work but honesty hazers aren't as commelon as people think in uu I've seen more in ou than in uu.

Are you kidding me? Roar Altaria/Blastoise/Donphan and Haze Milotic are pretty common.

And mismagius is also raped by say a bolt beam combo or just cress non stop attacking instead of going for status missy.

Cool, Missy can use NP while Cress is stupid enough to keep attacking and kill Cress with a free boost too.

I may have considered a counter if it had a reliable recovery move to get back the health it loses from the subs cress will break down. unless it's a new uu player and doesn't know never to try and status attack missy on a first turn.

Pain Split.

And porygon-z and zam weren't doing anything to it when they were all OU pokes if anything they increased it's popularity

You're still completely ignoring another counter, Spiritomb. It can take Cress's status and rest it off, CM while Cress uses weak special attacks, throw out STAB Shadow Ball, Pursuit and Dark Pulse, and Pain Split back any damage it takes.
 
UU metagame is going to be so broken with cress in it. o_O and pory-z will wreak havak.

BL testing will come fast.
 
I've really been feeling that Cresselia shouldn't be OU for some while (speaking pure usage wise). She lacks any decent recovery move really (Rest just doesn't work on pure walls imo, and Tyranitar/Hippowdon make Moonlight so unreliable) and has absolutely no offensive capabilities. Glad she moved. I'm kind of surprised to see Porygon-Z move to UU, though.
