It's funny that their first instinct was to Psycho Boost it. Was there really NOTHING else to do?

I don't have a replay to put with this but my god is it satisfying to see people deflate when they've boosted a lot and then hit Unaware Azulo and he just shrugs it off as Toxic kills them while he Recovers to full

So in cooler news

Apparently Reflect Type Mega Latias is becoming a mainstream thing. I'm seeing why too.

Sure!

It keeps Latias from being Pursuit trapped by Pokemon like Bisharp and Tyranitar by gaining a resistance to Dark. It helps against Ferrothorn, who can no longer deal any meaningful damage via Gyro Ball or Leech Seed Latias, and Heatran, which can't deal any meaningful damage with Lava Plume even if Latias becomes neutral to it, but it will protect Latias against Burn and Toxic while completely countering offensive sets as well (Levitate!). Mega Metagross suddenly fails to deal meaningful damage to Latias. Jirachi can't paraflinch you to death (kind of a last resort as you don't want your Latias to be paralyzed).

There are a lot of practical uses for it. It's not as useful on offensive variants though who would just rather nuke things with LO Draco Meteor and such (and potentially use Healing Wish).

In which PO still holds the title for "Best Gen I Tiers" because Smogon let fucking Dragonite in their UU tier.

What the actual fuck.

Aight so here's the deal. We're in the middle of "redoing" the Gen 1 tiers. First we set OU, and the cutoff between OU/UU was set at B/C in the OU viability rankings. So as of right now, all we have is Ubers and OU set for sure. The UU ladder has been out for like a week, which hasn't been enough time to determine what should be BL. Personally, I agree with you that Dragonite is too strong for UU, but there just hasn't been enough time yet. Like I said, we've only had UU in its current form for a week. The feel I'm getting from most people is that Dragonite will probably become BL. I'm sure it'll get voted on soon.

Oh come on. It's not like it hasn't been done elsewhere. This is just stupid. Smogon dug its feet in for how many years saying it wouldn't do any past Generations so it could focus on the current one, while other communities didn't. They've done the work, they've done the hard testing and found what is okay and what isn't. Now Smogon wants to do it, and has chosen the childish route of "its our way or the highway"?

Anyone familiar with Gen I would tell you Dragonite is too powerful for UU. Or Articuno. Or Venusaur. Or Persian. Or Victreebel. There are probably more I'm forgetting. We've been playing RBY UU for a while now. There is no justifiable reason why it is how it is.

Okay.

Read through the two threads I've posted. It's not as "serious business" as when Shadow Tag or whatever was getting banned when y'all (rightfully) had major issues with the system. It's just a casual discussion and many people have been talking about banning either Dragonite, Wrap, Agility + Wrap, or other stuff. Play the tier a bit, make up your mind about what you support, if you support banning anything at all, and make an educated post. It won't get deleted. There's no conspiracy. No one is out to get you. I promise.

There really is no merit to this replay, just enjoy the fact that tricking a Scarf onto Cradily cost this guy the game.

God that Dedenne set is beautiful. I might run that. I was a little confused why he didn't do much more than sit there and try to stall you out though, especially if he's not running Toxic.

Furfrou <3 Love that guy. Completely shits on any kind of physical sweeper. Sure, it's a niche counter, but it's a hard counter, and that makes little Mr. Woofers pretty valuable to me.

That reminds me of the time Furfrou tried to switch in on my Guts Luxray and got OHKO'd by Superpower.

Good times.
