UU just means underused, it doesn't mean they're shit

It just came to my mind that it's also kind of circular reasoning:
Why is it silly to use these mons?
Because they're UU.
Why are they UU?
Because they're not often used.

Landorus is bad too, and if it keeps going so will Thundurus.
On topic, Yache Berry Multiscale Dragonite. I used Ice Beam on Greninja and was thoroughly mind fucked.

The funny thing is, if the PS calculator is right then that's actually legit enough to avoid a 1HKO through Multiscale.
I very recently faced a weakness policy...weaville. Pretty sure weaville cannot survive any super effective attacks. At least not from any OU Pokemon.
0- Atk Celebi U-turn vs. 4 HP / 0 Def Weavile: 130-154 (46 - 54.6%) -- 57% chance to 2HKO
That's one.

so many people rage quit against that guy, he has no soul, it's the most frustrating thing in the world
Ok so I saw an offensive shuckle with shell smash is that making you laugh? It had contrary mud slap infestation and rollout... Lol
Hell squirtle has higher viability lol
OU just doesn't have enough room.
Donphan isn't a bad pokemon though. I have no idea why it has such a terrible reputation. 90/120 physical bulk is fantastic and 120 attack is nothing to sneeze at. Sure it isn't great, but what is wrong with using the second bulkiest OU viable spinner?
When I saw the Donphan ranting, I thought I had accidentally clicked on the viability ranking thread. Please stop now before this becomes the new topic of discussion. As bad as Donphan is, it's still "OU" so it shouldn't be considered "silly" when you see it considering the other stories in this thread.
2 things first of all we need this for all the tiers when they come out second of all I saw something pretty crazy on the ladder... Donphan
Greninja doesn't have THAT bad Attack, I mean a Special set is better, but...that's not a bad idea.
Yeah, but it looks like the Scarf is kinda the real kicker here. Greninja is already fast and a special Scarf set even isn't considered viable. Physical Scarf is just laughable. Question: did the Greninja at least have Protean?
its not that bad
