https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9ou-1746707690-9io1kgjsubmpty60g5pfzxcxnmgnhinpw this u?I've spent the entirety of Gen 9 watching Chi-Yu sweep with Overheat, it's just not fair.
Not for a while no.Should Smogon have a redo vote for Terastallization in case it was a big fluke?
No disrespect to Terastallization, I'm a firm believer that No Action is a huge fluke and robs Smogon of truly accomplishing what their capable of. I've spent the last few days in pure disbelief and it just doesn't make sense to me. I've spent the entirety of Gen 9 watching Chi-Yu sweep with Overheat, it's just not fair.
If Action loses again I will face that Terastallization deserves to stay in the tier, but I am just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to the Gen 9 OU metagame and Smogon.
Literally the dumbest design ever, they could have made some cool ass crystal mons and Game Freak said "nah fuck that shit, hat"? Wtf???I think Terastalization is a good mechanic, because it gives your Pokemon a pretty hat, and I think there should be more hat-based mechanics in videogames
...no? Literally the equivalent of making a presidential election recount "in case it was a fluke." The only way anything would change is if you didn't properly announce it and some number of no-action voters miss the second announcement.Should Smogon have a redo vote for Terastallization in case it was a big fluke?
LMAOOO that's the most unholy shit ever
The logic behind it is it needs to be easily telegraphed, so that anyone watching can immediately identify what type it with with no chance of mistaking it. The hats provide that, with distinct shapesLiterally the dumbest design ever, they could have made some cool ass crystal mons and Game Freak said "nah fuck that shit, hat"? Wtf???
My question is... A chi-yu at -4, and instead of going into their own chi yu... they went into Ape then Pao?LMAOOO that's the most unholy shit ever
Nah cap, give me 10 bucks and I'll come up with a better design than that.The logic behind it is it needs to be easily telegraphed, so that anyone watching can immediately identify what type it with with no chance of mistaking it. The hats provide that, with distinct shapes
Its a copypasta from when the predators beat the black hawks in the Stanley cup playoffs like 7 years ago. Blackhawks got swept and someone made that post in response about replaying the series...no?

Their own chi-yu OR skeledirge, AND they didn't use a tera at all.My question is... A chi-yu at -4, and instead of going into their own chi yu... they went into Ape then Pao?
Terastallization remains fully legal in Scarlet & Violet Overused!

oh shit okay, ya got me, well playedIts a copypasta from when the predators beat the black hawks in the Stanley cup playoffs like 7 years ago. Blackhawks got swept and someone made that post in response about replaying the series
I'm not going to pay you... But I'm curious. What design could you think of thatNah cap, give me 10 bucks and I'll come up with a better design than that.
Why would we ban Shed Tail when Orthworm exists and it's a more or less shit mon in OU.Just ban Chi Yu, Chien Pao, and Shed Tail (pls don’t ban Cyclizar just ban the move) and the meta game is playable. Wishing everyone a great 2023 for SV metagames, OU and below.
Are you being serious?Ahem.
Not for a while no.
Yes the vote was close, but guess what will happen if action is taken on a retest? Most likely, the people who voted for no action will claim that the result was a fluke, that they won the initial vote and this outcome was unfair. There's nothing wrong with the voting process, so it would be a disservice to smogon to redo it right now. People would miss the fact voting had reopened, and some would boycott and it would not be an accurate representation of community opinion
Also, Chi-yu is pretty commonly considered a broken regardless of Tera, so citing that as the main reason Tera is unfair isn't that convincing of an arguement
I agree with your wider points about the discourse throughout this suspect process and that the above would be the best course of action. However, considering the historic and ground-breaking nature of this decision, it is natural for people to discuss it for a while. We are just monkeys that learned to play Pokemon on computers after all. So let's agree to not get too worked up at people taking the time to process this in... a variety of healthy and unhealthy ways.Finch has the right idea in regards to the situation in that the best course of action is to go to the next course of business for OU and let all this be re-tested later, as there are arguably far more pressing matters to attend to.
It's really not that high a bar for what the criteria is designed to do, prove that you have the chops to know what you are talking about and voting on. Informed decision making is pretty critical to the health of smogon's tiering design. I'm saying this as a shit player myself, I don't make reqs, it's that simple.80% GXE with a minimum set number of games in OU is an extremely high bar for some folk, and having No Action on PS Tera is rough.
As was Ioh shit okay, ya got me, well played
