It's crazy to state that Rotom Slowbro and Mantine only rose to UU because of Lucario. As if they would be completely unviable in UU if not for Lucario? As if threats like Togekiss/Entei/rain were not a thing? The fact that these 3 moved up to UU shows that there is indeed room for new ideas and innovations. Lucario is very centralizing, yet I don't think it is necessarily unhealthy. Lucario does not invalidate any playstyle, and it is not mandatory to have a Lucario in your team for it to be viable. It has forced the playerbase to adapt, and from what I can read they are not happy about that. Personally I have enjoyed recent UU much more than pre-Lucario UU. Although I'm not so glad about it it looks like Tangrowth is also about to drop to UU to give yet another Lucario check. There is more than a dozen of them in the tier at the moment. Looking forward to Chandelure dropping in the following months as Heatran's arrival in OU definitely burried Chandelure's viability up there.

Big no. Even if we add fairies. What are fairies going to change anyway? There would be like 3 good fairies in OU. Their presence wouldn't be near enough to justify such a change. And what about the fairy-gens typing adjustments on steel? Would we buff Knock Off AND make it neutral on Steel type ? When mons like Tyranitar have access to Knock Off? Even without the changes to the typing, most fighting types would become unbearable to switch around. And this move would be so stupidly good that all mons that have access to it (a lot of them have since the recent gens move updates) would just use it most of the time. I am not sure why this is being suggested tbh.

Although I'm very confused as of why Gliscor was sent against a +6 Poliwrath instead of a scarf Magnezone, if that 15 turns-long battle is all the evidence provided, it is clearly not enough to judge

It has only been 4 days and I don't think anything should get quickbanned anytime soon, especially not Togekiss. Togekiss is nowhere near as centralizing as Lucario right now. No it can't. Unless you would let him calm mind 3 times for free but I trust you won't; Raikou would just win by spamming tbolt and Togekiss will run out of roosts well yeah I mean that's what Togekiss is all about, destroying slower teams. That argument sounds the same as "Blissey is too good because it tanks all special attacks in the game" for example. Sounds a bit silly to me Sounds scary indeed. But I think the reason why people would mostly use the slow bulky setup sets is because it's simply much better. Much more consistent, much more useful. I assume you would drop heal bell to fit in one of its coverage moves? You really don't want your Togekiss to lose the duel against Blissey or lose to toxic in general. It usually can't afford running coverage moves for that reason, unless you're using a scarf Togekiss which would still lose to the usual stuff (Raikou RotomHeat and friends) Don't get me wrong, Togekiss is great, but I believe it's much more limited than what people tend to think. Now speaking of my own experience, I have been enjoying the new UU very much. I'm not so sure what to think of Lucario so far : very limited by 4mss, it doesn't easily get an opportunity to setup and lifeorb recoil helps a lot to play around it. Hippo and Sableye seem to be the best counters to it, and your team will probably be weak to atleast 1 Lucario set if you don't use one of these 2. I found Staraptor surprisingly underwhelming and I don't even think the team I've been using is particularly good against it. And for some reason, out of 25ish games so far I have only faced Haxorus twice so idk yet Looking forward to play more UU

May I ask why?

As a comparison, last month OU usage had Reuniclus and Gengar under 8% usage, and it's obvious that these Pokemons are clearly OU. It doesn't really seem reasonable to expect a UU-anchored mon to get that much usage in OU in order to move up. I agree the cut-off point should definitely be lower
