Welcome to the OU discussion of the different playstyles! The main purpose of this thread is to choose a playstyle every week (I'll choose it) and you, (yes, you), are going to be able to comment, give your opinion and suggest pokemons that should be considered when making a team around the style [posting teams is also allowed, just keep in mind that this is not the RMT forums, so if you want to post a team try to make it short and use sprites of pokes, explain how does the team work and post replays if possible]. Obviously, your comments must have connection with the chosen style, as well as solid arguments of why your comment(s) are valid. With this, newer players can decide what playstyle they like most and, of course, more experienced players can also expand their knowledge. Remember to be friendly with other people; if you disagree with someone's opinion don't slam with an aggressive response, just let everyone know what you think in a kind way.The links to discussions of each playstyle will be posted in the OP so everyone can read it at anytime!
Rules
- Make quality posts. No one-lined posts.Your comments must be about the weekly playstyle chosen.
- No gimmicks. If you decided to post a team (or pokemon) don't suggest using pursuit Tauros to trap Latias and Latios while there is an overall better option named Tyranitar or Bisharp.
- Comment how the chosen style affects the current metagame and how it fairs in it.
- Support your team's posts with replays if possible. Explanation of them are a must.
- If you are comfortable, feel free to post one of your own teams and explain the process of making the team.
- Having a wide point of view is needed. Don't post that stall sucks because you always lose to it.
- Your new ideas must have strong arguments of why them should be considered.
- This one is important: We don't want this to become a debate of: "this metagame is stale and has no diversity due to X Pokemon/Playstyle". This thread is here to make a discussion about the different playstyles, not to discharge all your hate against weather. Please, incoherent posts will be deleted and possibly penalized, so think about what are you going to write.
- For reference see the past OU Playstyles projects to guide you on what to discuss.
