I love how they buffed this thing. We now have a new wall/check to several offensive powerhouses in OU and another option to choose when looking for a defogger, which is always welcome. Clever buffs like this and smart nerfs to things like burn damage and thunder wave are really positive for...

How so? Bronzong is annoyingly passive and just sits there tanking hits while wishing it could recover reliably. Jirachi is nowhere near as passive as Bronzong and can tank hits better, but it's still weak compared to Metagross and neither of them can trap the lati twins. With AV Metagross you...

Uh, no. Your argument is very easily explained. The Pokemon you brought up are lower in viability and/or usage because of the shift to ORAS and the powerhouse mega pokemon that came with it. The opportunity cost of these pokemon skyrocketed. Heracross is way too slow now, Medicham isn't worth...

It's not really a case of being stubborn at all. The facts speak for themselves. For example, Starmie, an A rank pokemon (who many deem to be A+), was U FREAKING U because of Aegislash. We're not just making it seem like Aegislash dominated OU to the point of making so many pokemon unviable for...

There was no need to delete your whole post man, you could have just edited those calculations or removed them. Slowking is a very good pokemon and could definitely rise in the rankings because of the reasons you gave. It's a fantastic switch in to a lot of the tiers most terrifying and powerful...

Where are you getting those calcs from? They're waaaaay off. 252+ SpA Mega Charizard Y Solar Beam vs. 248 HP / 96 SpD Assault Vest Slowking: 188-222 (47.8 - 56.4%) -- 84.8% chance to 2HKO 252+ SpA Mega Charizard Y Solar Beam vs. 252 HP / 212+ SpD Slowking: 234-276 (59.3 - 70%) -- guaranteed...

I just want to point out that I think you're really underselling Mega Gallade's power without any boosts. Mega Gallade is very capable of the hit and run style you speak of because close combat is a total nuke. It's extremely hard to find non resists that aren't dismantled by it. The extra speed...

Don't you mean former? Referring to Thundurus instead of Landorus? Because AV Raikou takes 92% minimum from Earth power lol. Guaranteed OHKO after rocks.

What is dark pulse being used for? I thought the only special attacks Tyranitar used were ice beam and sometimes fire blast.

Agreed. Mega Tyranitar is still extremely powerful after a DD because of its sheer bulk, offensive output, and speed. It's worse in ORAS yeah, but it's still a frightening win condition that is nearly impossible to revenge. It would be ridiculous to exclude it from the main sets.

It would be cool if Gamefreak made it so that water types couldn't be burned by scald. That way the move would still retain its power and overall annoyance but it would be much less "herp derp" and would promote actual thinking during a match because your opponent has a scald switch in that...

"A good player will find a way to deal with scald just as a good player finds a way to deal with any threat", then why have so many important league and tour matches (the places where the best players play) been decided by scald? You don't deal with scald. You cross your fingers.

I was kidding haha. This tier isn't for suspect testing anything, it seems to be more like a fun experiment for the community. A no mega OU tier actually sounds pretty cool. It'll be interesting to see how this meta develops and see what pokemon turn out to be much stronger when megas aren't...

Considering mega Pokemon that are perceived as "balanced" might eventually be implemented, this almost seems like a metagame with a hidden agenda. You know, for the people who are still upset with Metagross suspect result. Watch as every mega gets introduced eventually except Metagross and maybe...

What's the reasoning behind Primal Kyogre being A+? I'm genuinely curious. There's never much talk about it here and every time I have seen it used it doesn't do much except maybe bait in Primal Groudon. It's a good breaker I guess but in terms of overall effectiveness is it really as good as...
