NU Tier Discussion Request Thread
My opinion, they are strong but not broken and meeting offensive uber criteria.
-
UU Tier Discussion Request Thread
UU Discussion thread can be used for the same purpose. Yes, we breached policy but we've got new blood and changes are coming. Prepare yourselves fam, active TC has arrived.

Conkeldur is very good right now. Do we need more psychic types added?
Ah yes, the infamous 10+ move Conkeldurr that runs Bulk Up, Mach Punch, Close Combat, Drain Punch, Facade, Rock Blast, Payback, Earthquake and all three elemental punches. Hard to counter indeed. I heard it runs 252 EVs in every stat too.

Thoughts/Recommendations on defogless/spinless teams.
Rain would certainly pressure you but you can flip weather with Tyranitar and build Rotom-Wash to be more supportive against water spam. Protect Heatran is a cool option. Either way, you can build any team to do what you want it to.

Thoughts/Recommendations on defogless/spinless teams.
We actually have a lot of great options for teams without classic hazard removal. Magic Bounce users, Gengar or other grounded poison types to soak up Toxic Spikes, and consider bulky mons that are either immune to Spikes or resist Stealth Rocks. Espeon, Gliscor, Gengar, Heatran, Rotom-Wash, Tyranitar may be an interesting combination with some defensive synergy. You also fake like you have hazard control which may or may not keep your opponent from dropping crazy layers.

There is literally no way to stop Venusaur in OU, why is he doing so poorly?
See guys, Daryl gets it. Gosh.

Oh so now Venu is running Solar Beam and Giga Drain, I see why it's broken now. 5+ moves OP.

Thou Shalt Becometh Swoll...
10 Year Reunion?! @Orangeslash @ThinkNicer @Kazooka @raaidn @Platoons Life Update: The Gary Edward's got me to 225 x2 reps reps at the peak. Cutie married gym friend got divorced. Her ex blamed me even though I was just a gym friend (homewrecker goals worked out but without the benefit?!). So that wasn't good. Won a few hoops league championships and still hoop today. I can't jump like I used to but I still got love for the game. Currently 205 lbs and probably 26% BF. Current max (975 lbs cummulative) Bench: 205 lbs Squat: 335 lbs Deadlift: 385 lbs Exercising daily. Diet is worse than it's ever been. Found a cool gym with group classes and excellent trainers. Hooping twice daily when work doesn't get in the way. Am a doctor now. I do everything and teach. It's great. Married to an amazing woman who gyms harder than all of you. Hope you're all still doing good. Much love y'all. And yes, I did just read 29 pages of nostalgia = )

Hmmm you willingly engaged in a discussion thread after a decision was voted on and implemented. I can't help you with your time. Comments prior to the final decision were mostly in favor of a complex ban and helped aid our vote.

[Doubles Discussion] Jirachi
Not sure what you mean. TC identified a problem and started discussing internally a while ago. The thread was opened 3/22 and a formal TC vote was finalized and announced yesterday by Munya. We can add the final decision to the first post if that's what you're asking for.

Doubles Tier Discussion Request Thread
The TC decision was to make it flash and reveal, and we do not anticipate reverting it.

[Doubles Discussion] Jirachi
TC has been discussing this for a while, even before this thread was open. Jirachi + Follow Me outclasses other Follow Me (and Rage Powder) users by far and protects the typical offensive threats so much more dramatically that it is too good not to use. Our job is to protect the tier, and this was an action that we saw as necessary. We had a unanimous vote to ban this combination. @Munya you may close this thread.

Medicham=Sharpness Gallade 2.0
Ok my guy is trolling now. I took the benefit of the doubt bait. Oof.
-
Medicham=Sharpness Gallade 2.0
60 / 75 / 75 vs 68 / 65 / 115 That's a pretty big difference, but you're right, Medicham hits as hard as Gallade and is a pretty good option. Fake Out is also pretty neat to have on your team. Keep punching holes in folks with that disgusting burn based team. Let us know how you're doing once you get a couple hundred matches deep.

April 2025 Movement Discussion
We dropped Staraptor with the BL1 release and quickly banned it because it was very broken. No need to go back.

April 2025 Movement Discussion
Ya... Rhyperior probably isn't going to get our favor to drop into NU. It's just too bulky and strong, and it has too many weapons to choose from. Medicham is up for debate but one point that came up is that it will fight for that open fighting spot in UU now that Luca is banned, and if it's usage rises in a month then testing it is pointless.
