  2. there isnt a single *save* switch vs that monster, im not even have the slight idea what tc is smoking to allow it, there is no Hydreigon thread were we can see some calcs or discuss. but since pvp became kinda dead nobody cares to express their thoughts tbh i remember Gb made a solid post asking one of the Devs for a answer regarding gallade but yeah they are doing their best to stay hidden and be invisable like usually tldr: abuse the broken mons they add and the unhealthy meta

  5. It's unbelievable how the game has deteriorated after the introduction of hidden abilities. There's no stability whatsoever, and with every event, we get more hidden abilities and Pokémon that disrupt the game further. Teambuilding has never been more challenging. This game is becoming more frustrating. You just can't convince me that it's possible to build a team in OU with six Pokémon that can handle rain, hyper offense, Suicune, Raikou, Serperior, and stall. The meta is all about match-up fishing. Furthermore, those in control, and I don't need to name them, will jump at any opportunity to introduce Pokémon like Magic Guard Alakazam with Nasty Plot, which have no real counters. In Generation 5, Nasty Plot was removed, and it's frustrating to see it return here. Take what you will from this. The way the Tier Council manages things makes their existence almost invisible. But since everyone is in their comfort zone, no one is willing to speak up because they will get silenced
  6. because we have certain people derailing the threads, so yea i dont blame them for not bothering getting quoted by a person that doesnt know a single thing, gets teached a lesson multiple times, but still act like a clueless monkey. on topic tho i have seen people adapting alot with Pz, with spiritomb AV being popular. with Johto adding more stuff soon, i think it will keep him on a leash. Im also fine with Pz`s test being ended this month
  7. My mistake, the original thread was called [NU Discussion] Venusaur, i must have been confused but thanks for noticing it
  8. What is this? This thread is being opened to discuss Venusaur being added to the NU Tier by usage. Venusaur has fallen below the 4.36% cut-off point. A quick vote was made but didn't gather a unanimous response to ban, and thus we are opening a discussion thread to consider a possible ban to BL2. What to know? Venusaur is a strong-offensive option that can potentially sweep the tier and also provide utility depending on its set. Venusaur having it's HA, Chlorophyll makes it an extremely threatening pokemon and has enough support in Sableye, Whimsicott, Rotom, Claydol, Xatu - all capable of setting sun and then switching into Venusaur at an appropriate time. Venusaur then has access to devestate the entire tier with sleep powder and growth enabling it to go to +2 in an instant. It also has the necessary speed, under sun, to clear offensive threats and it also has enough bulk, recovery in synthesis/Giga Drain and great resistances to easily sleep/set-up vs the limited and lackluster specially defensive pokemon in NU, (calcs will follow). Venusaur can't be poisoned so stalling it is not a great option either. Previously when Venusaur was NU we had Specially defensive 'checks' for it in Nidoqueen and Clefable, neither of these are an options anymore. Just to note these are pokemon I've seen mentioned by members of the community as 'potential checks': Xatu, Gigalith, Golbat, Bronzor, Altaria, Gligar, and Mantine. Most of these pokemon are susceptible to sleep powder or being easily swept once Venusaur has set up. With that in mind we believe it's right to bring a suspect test to see if NU can handle a monster like Venusaur. Noteworthy Sets: Sun Sweeper: Growth, Giga Drain/Solar Beam, Sludge Bomb, Weather Ball/Hidden Power Ice Sleep Powder: Sleep Powder, Growth, Giga Drain, Weather Ball/SludgeBomb Manual Setter: Sunny Day, Growth, Giga Drain, Weather Ball Defensive: Giga Drain, Sludge Bomb, Synthesis, Leech Seed Xatu Calcs: 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Weather Ball (100 BP Fire) vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Xatu in Sun: 92-109 (53.4 - 63.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Sludge Bomb vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Xatu: 83-99 (48.2 - 57.5%) -- 92.2% chance to 2HKO +2 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Weather Ball (100 BP Fire) vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Xatu in Sun: 183-216 (106.3 - 125.5%) -- guaranteed OHKO +2 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Sludge Bomb vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Xatu: 165-195 (95.9 - 113.3%) -- 81.3% chance to OHKO 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Weather Ball (100 BP Rock) vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Xatu in Sand: 122-146 (70.9 - 84.8%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after sandstorm damage Golbat Calcs: 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Weather Ball (100 BP Fire) vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Eviolite Golbat in Sun: 60-71 (32.9 - 39%) -- 99.8% chance to 3HKO +2 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Weather Ball (100 BP Fire) vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Eviolite Golbat in Sun: 118-140 (64.8 - 76.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Weather Ball (100 BP Rock) vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Eviolite Golbat in Sand: 81-96 (44.5 - 52.7%) -- 77.7% chance to 2HKO after sandstorm damage Gigalith Calcs: 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Giga Drain vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Gigalith in Sand: 86-104 (44.7 - 54.1%) -- 2.7% chance to 2HKO after Leftovers recovery +1 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Giga Drain vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Gigalith in Sand: 133-156 (69.2 - 81.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery +2 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Giga Drain vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Gigalith in Sand: 172-203 (89.5 - 105.7%) -- 25% chance to OHKO Bronzor Calcs: 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Weather Ball (100 BP Fire) vs. 252 HP / 252 SpD Eviolite Bronzor in Sun: 120-143 (73.1 - 87.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO +2 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Weather Ball (100 BP Fire) vs. 252 HP / 252 SpD Eviolite Bronzor in Sun: 237-281 (144.5 - 171.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO Altaria Calcs: +2 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Hidden Power Ice vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Altaria: 234-276 (128.5 - 151.6%) -- guaranteed OHKO 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Hidden Power Ice vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Altaria: 114-140 (62.6 - 76.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO (edited) 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Weather Ball (100 BP Rock) vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Altaria in Sand: 96-114 (52.7 - 62.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after sandstorm damage Gligar Calcs: 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Hidden Power Ice vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Eviolite Gligar: 104-125 (60.4 - 72.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO +2 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Hidden Power Ice vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Eviolite Gligar: 203-244 (118 - 141.8%) -- guaranteed OHKO Mantine Calcs: 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Sludge Bomb vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Mantine: 55-64 (28.6 - 33.3%) -- 0% chance to 3HKO +2 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Sludge Bomb vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Mantine: 105-125 (54.6 - 65.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO +2 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Giga Drain vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Mantine: 87-105 (45.3 - 54.6%) -- 53.9% chance to 2HKO 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Weather Ball (100 BP Rock) vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Mantine in Sand: 78-94 (40.6 - 48.9%) -- 8.2% chance to 2HKO after sandstorm damage Munchlax Calcs: 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Sludge Bomb vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Munchlax: 75-90 (30.9 - 37.1%) -- 67.6% chance to 3HKO +2 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Sludge Bomb vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Munchlax: 148-175 (61.1 - 72.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO +2 252+ SpA Life Orb Venusaur Sludge Bomb vs. 252 HP / 252+ SpD Munchlax: 148-175 (61.1 - 72.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO Piloswine Calcs: 252+ Atk Piloswine Ice Shard vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Venusaur: 74-90 (47.7 - 58%) -- 87.5% chance to 2HKO Cloyster Calcs: 252+ Atk Choice Band Cloyster Ice Shard vs. 0 HP / 0 Def Venusaur: 108-128 (69.6 - 82.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO Give us your input and discuss
  9. If Alakazam got a chance to be tested in NU, surely Venomoth gets a chance after 5 years.
  10. After a 3 month review, Gallade appears to not fit well within the current OU tier and the TC has voted. Gallade has been banned by a majority vote to Ubers. The Tier Council deems that Gallade fits Offensive Uber characteristics and will be removed immediately. We thank u all for discussing this important topic with us, we as TC appreciate every input. The change will take place with the rest of the tiering changes at the end of the season.
  11. In my opinion i feel like Shaymin is annoying, but not banworthy. Yes seed flare is a strong move but people forget that its biggest weakness is A the miss potentional and B it cant spam freely seed flare because of its low PP. And like it got mentioned before, Shaymin is holding the dominating water mons and if we ban Shaymin ppl will complain about the strong water meta again. With the add of Johto we might receive new HA`s that can work vs Shaymin as well.

  13. There will be a Shaymin discussion thread soon
  14. hopefully the finals between madarasixsix vs ZioMOJI would get scheduled in silph co bcs of the crash what happend during the tournament
  15. Tbh i made this thread to see if there are certain things we forgot to mention to handle gallade or some people that can hard defend it in order to stay. Seeing this thread almost 3 weeks open, i havent seen anyone solidly defended gallade. i also agree slowbro/tangrowth wont do a thing to gallade as well if potentionally their HA are added. there are many solid arguments to nerf gallade by removing its abillity but nobody has yet to counter argument those.
