Yeah moody clause seems a bit dumb. I have a feeling that moody bibarels won't be sweeping the ubers metagame lol
Rather than give a long explanation or try and explain why it's broken, I'll instead direct you to the moody suspect discussion and unlike the trainwreck that is ou suspect discussions, we actually don't start pulling out random arguments that are inccredibly flawed.I swear it simply gets OHKO'd by most things though and even at +6 attack I'm sure it's stopped by ferrothorn.
Moody is not so much overpowered as it is absolutely toxic to the metagame. Due to the random nature of the boosts and those frail mons' absolute dependence on the right boosts it is too inconsistent to ever top the ladder or anything, but nonetheless it can on occasion be so powerful that even a complete beginner can win against a highly skilled player with a very well-built team. Moody abandons skill for luck, and occasionally pays off. It contributes nothing desirable to the metagame.I swear it simply gets OHKO'd by most things though and even at +6 attack I'm sure it's stopped by ferrothorn.
So moody is banned because obviously 32 stat boost virtually uninteruptable is kinda broken. Also i guess the random nature of it breaks the game.Rather than give a long explanation or try and explain why it's broken, I'll instead direct you to the moody suspect discussion and unlike the trainwreck that is ou suspect discussions, we actually don't start pulling out random arguments that are inccredibly flawed.

Sub + protect + dive + toxicLiterally the only problem I see is smeargle passing a couple of super lucky evasion boosts. Bibarel doesn't have a hope of sweeping at +6 attack and +6 speed and the others are probably even worse. The day mewtwo gets moody, I'll agree with its ban.
Yes, in all likelihood every player (even the highly respected ones) that voted for the ban of Moody was merely incompetent and your inferior, and by extension the ban unfounded. Please revise all clauses and regulate the banlists for us, as we are clearly incapable of doing so ourselves, and democracy sucks.Literally the only problem I see is smeargle passing a couple of super lucky evasion boosts.

Snoop sorry about the nitpick, but LC is a tier and a metagame, so you're wrong.Currently, the only tiers in Generation VI are OU and Ubers.
