    Metagame SS OU Metagame Discussion (Usage stats in post #944)

    I'm sure everything I say about dmax has been stated already but what I've gathered: Dynamaxing overly rewards the player that gets momentum going first. Once you're in advantaged state it lets you snowball unchecked for three turns. Vastly increased bulk coupled with 100+ base power moves that...

    Announcement np: SM OU Suspect Process, Round 4 - The Robots - Metagrossite BANNED

    hades666 Whether or not Greninja was banned in gen VI is irrelevant. This is a completely different game. Its like saying Metaknight should be banned in SSB4 because he was OP in Brawl. Sure, I want the Greninja suspect too, but just because Greninja is too good doesn't mean Megagross isn't too...

    Announcement np: SM OU Suspect Process, Round 4 - The Robots - Metagrossite BANNED

    preserve Your standards for banworthy pokemon must be really high, and this is coming from somebody who thinks Garchomp should be OU in gen IV. I think there are several reasons for wanting Megagross banned, and not a lot of reason to keep him around. You can disagree with people's reasoning...

    Announcement np: SM OU Suspect Process, Round 4 - The Robots - Metagrossite BANNED

    My opinion on Megagross is that he should be banned because he is restrictive to team building on several fronts. The first is the obvious - he requires dedicated checks. That alone isn't enough to ban him. However, he's also the best Mega evolution to the point where its almost every other mega...

    Resource SM OU Sets Viability Rankings

    Pursuit Scizor -> A This thing controls momentum in ways no other pokemon can. It has a relatively neutral matchup against both S tier pokemon (though Defensive Landorus at high HP gives problems). It checks and traps Lele (locked out of or lacking HP fire), keeps both forms of Greninja from...

    Announcement np: SM OU Suspect Process, Round 3 - Beauty and the Boost - Pheromosa is now banned

    GoldDraconian Honestly, Smogon has gotten way better about their due process lately. These suspects are a very healthy and giving process. Personally, I could (and did) contest the bans of Garchomp, Salamence and Latias back in Gen IV. Those were super divided bans that shook the format. The...

    Announcement np: SM OU Suspect Process, Round 3 - Beauty and the Boost - Pheromosa is now banned

    Shurtugal made the single most intelligent post in this entire thread (and I've read the entire shitstorm). I'm a pretty old timey battler and most of my experience comes from Gen IV, though I've been playing a good bit of SuMoU lately. I could repeat everybody and say that phero is OP because...
