The Threats of UU

Hello, I am Varsen. I've been playing UU and an assortment of tiers, but currently that's not the topic at hand. I just wanted to see everyone's opinions on the threats of UU. Such as, Mamoswine,Celebi,Sylveon, and even Hydregion. This isn't a post to rant about what's broken or not. Simply wanted to see personal opinions among the UU community. I guess I'll start with the first Pokemon I listed. Mamoswine such a powerful mon. Jolly I believe sits at 311 speed with high attack , priority ice shard, stab icicle crash, superpower, knock off, stab eq,and of course access to rocks. With options of sash lead,Banded, or life orb. Very powerful Pokemon with a great speed and attack. Let's talk about Celebi now. Access to stab psychic and giga drain. Also access to Nasty plot and Swords dance which it can pass around to the team. It can take the roll of a heal bell user as well. Its a very versatile Mon. Now we move to my least favorite Mon from this cast. Has quite a few uses such as Specs/Pixel plate HV set or use it as cleric with wish protect baton pass toxic. I personally like Florges more for the cleric role. As slow as it is nothing likes to come in on a HV due to pixelate and pixie plate, but now let's move onto my boy Hydregion. An absolute monster of a mon. With great stab, speed stat and special attack. With an option as utility of sorts, but most commonly seen as a scarf or specs abuser. It can drops a Draco or hit with dark pulse. It hits like a truck and is personally one of my favorite Mons out of this list. It had a suspect a month or so ago. Which it doesn't make the tier unhealthy, but it definitely is a massive threat to the tier. But I am glad to see it still in UU. Feel free to post your opinions and feelings down below. Have a good day guys!
