Yeah that would be their current tier placement, but thanks.
Thanks so much! This is really helpful. It's so interesting to go back and be reminded of how things were way back in the day

How do I edit my signature? Since the last time I used this forum nearly two years ago, my signature has become extremely outdated and I would like to edit it.

Click on your name at the top right of the screen. A drop down menu should appear with different options in it. Next to 'Account Details' is a button for 'Signature.' This should let you edit your signature.
An easier way to add Pokemon sprites and minisprites to posts was added, which hopefully should make life easier for you guys when posting RMTs and VR threads and the like.
For example,:bulbasaur:adds Bulbasaur's minisprite to your post:
whereas prefixing it with a generation's two-letter code adds that generation's full-size sprite / 3D model. E.g.:dp/bulbasaur:inserts Bulbasaur's DPP sprite, and:sm/bulbasaur:adds its SM model.
Further tweaks / optimisations may be made to this feature, but it's currently functional enough for you all to use, so hf with it.
How do I make spoilers?
Two variants available, click either and fill in the text in the popup or between the tags.
How do I play PS! ladder games?
Simply have a valid team for whatever format you want to play, select that format, then click the button that says "battle find a random opponent"

Why does it say that Onix is the only Rock/Ground pokémon in RB UU, even though Graveler and Golem are also in UU and are also Rock/Ground?
And why is Golem only UU in RBY? In https://www.smogon.com/dex/rb/pokemon/onix/ it says "don't even try using it in OU, where it is completely outclassed by Golem." Isn't that contradictory? Not only that, but many people think that it should be OU, including myself.

Yeah,true,it is not solely onix in that typing
If Im banned and the day arrives to be unlocked,how long do i have to wait to be relieved of it?
It's most likely because the entry for Onix was written before Golem dropped to UU. Golem dropped to UU because more people were using Rhydon instead.
But I'm pretty sure that it's been a while, why aren't they fixing it? Also, imo Golem can't be UU because it's just too good for that tier.
Past generation analyses are often very old and aren't updated often, especially very niche Pokemon like RBY Onix.
Golem isn't too good for UU at all, it is regarded as B rank on the viability rankings. Just because something has a niche in OU doesn't mean it's too good for UU.
Because nobody reported it here. You can report the error if you want.
Viability and "brokenness" are often correlated but not the same thing. Smogon's tiering policy explains this better than I can.
Alright, I'll report it there then
Question: in a lot of Pokémon’s sets and guides for SS OU, they talk about dynomaxing despite it being banned in OU, why is that? To clarify, I’m not asking why it’s banned but why do the Pokémon strategies talk about the Pokémon dynomaxing (ex: Gyarados talks about using dynomaxing for max airstreams speed boost).
That's because most of the preliminary analyses were written before Dynamax was banned.
Full analyses are being worked on now. These will replace the former and will have no mention of Dynamax.
If I change my name on smogon (cant rn but in the future) and I want to chose a name that is free on smogon forums but already taken on pokemon showdown what happens if I wanna play on smogtours? Can I play under my old voiced account or should I make a new one that is similar to the new smogon name. Or something else?
you name on here doesn't have to be the same one on PS
