  1. I have better solution. Unban TTar, Dragonite and Salamence, problems with lax and bliss will also disappear... :v Or let's ban all walls so we can fight with sweepers like true gladiators. We can also ban all sweepers and hard hitters so we can all dive into lovely stall. I think I've listed all dumb ideas, now can we please discuss Chansey. I'd love to see some discussion before I will make my own post, rather than useless posts about "banning sdef walls" and stuff like that. If you don't want Chansey to be removed from OU and don't see it as cancer, post convincing arguments. E: Thanks Zeb =] E2: mfw no Yanma and Seaking, but there is Hariyama that I did use in the same match. Weird
  2. I do play without special wall. In fact, lately I play without walls at all Honestly, I think it would be cool if we would also know the usage stats of OU marathon. Please?
  3. Please add it: Hyper voice goes now through sub, meaning that subrev Dugtrio that earlier was THE bane of Chansey, now is useless. And I belive this is the biggest reasons of Chansey's spike in usage.
  4. Chansey to A. It might not have offensive presence, but without gengar, it does not give a shit. Hyper voice that passes through sub defeats subreversal dugtrio a'ka it's most dangerous enemy, leaving us only with a CB Trapinch as a reliable way of getting rid of it. It's currently the most reliable special wall the tier has. Imo :v)
  5. I feel that randoms are going to be a very balanced tier
  6. That depends on who's gonna sign up. I will prob pay any money for Nik E: Orange, it'd be good if a CM/GM could hold the pot in case you get banned for irrelevant shit or try to rmt or abuse a bug or idk what else, nomsayin... ;x
  7. I had chills. I thought someone made a video when I was drunk
  8. You'd be surprised. EDIT: I meant, profit-wise, if you meant the fact that they are boring then pls. I made them almost as many as Quakkz
  9. Gyarados will be a good choice bander. Jolteon seems to have HP Ice which is great. Idk about Magneton, Grass/ Fire are generally much better options than ice Umb looks nice, so does Kingdra but Weez is ew. I would put aside Magnet and Weez or re-breed them (magnet for grass/ ice, weez for higher special attack and speed stat). Spreads are quite simple. Jolteon 252 satk 252 speed 4 sdef Gyarados 248 atk, 228 speed, 36 HP Umbreon 252 HP 248 sdef 4 def, 4 evs wherever else (won't boost any stat) Kingdra 28 speed, 252 satk, rest into HP Jolteon spread is straightforward. Gyarados' spread allows you to outspeed base 75s (not really common but it's better to be prepared), optimizes the attack and just puts some into HP. Umb as sdef wall is also straightforward. Kingdra's set allows you to outspeed most of slow threats that otherwise would break it and obv, outspeed everything after rain.
  10. I've perfectly voiced how I feel about current tournament prizes when I released the pseudocomp shiny gift lanturn I won in tag tournament along with my love. Useless piece of shit, I got a better one in my box, not gonna bother with a different coloured one in my box, taking a valuable slot. 1m was a reward, and official title. That oddly coloured junk is not even a trophy, it's a spit in my face for loading a crate of beer during the tournament to win it while some other players used to win shiny duskulls, spinaraks, teddiursas and so on, in a GIMMICK officials. Honestly, personally, I don't care about shinies at all, but that would help competitive players to get out from poverty and encourage shiny traders to spend some millions on the prizes, for which they sacrificed hundreds if not thousands of hours. EDIT: All in all, it goes all about the fact that... WE ARE FUCKING POOR. And I also hope you are aware of the fact that the best and fastest way of making money, are alts, which you despise so much.
  11. I was actually struggling with myself on what I should hop on first, friends think that Sciz is the real problem, I've seen people been spitting on Vileplume as it's literally in half of UU teams, and personally I want to jump on Slowking... I guess I'll stick to what I had in my mind. Everything will come in it's time I guess. I would like to request for a discussion thread for Slowking. Usually before I request a thread or ban, I build a broken poke myself and use it to prove how broken it is (see: Zam, Zard, Rhydon). Unfortunately in this example I do not run Slowking (although, I REALLY DID) but I've been observing a lot of tournaments and I hope that my experience from observations is enough to prove that it's place is in BL and not in UU. 1. Typing Slowking's typing allows it to wall the most common and usually also most powerful threats in the metagame, giving it switches for practically 70% of the metagame. It's typing at first was used only to wall the omnipotent (and omnipresent) Hitmonlee who's STAB CB Superpower, as well as other coverage moves, was plowing through tier without any mercy. Now it grew to a top tier wall, able to wall majority of the viable pokes in UU. It's typing grants it resistance to 6 attack types but most importantly, Water, Fighting and Fire. STAB Waterfalls, STAB Superpowers are nothing to it, and if/ when it gets hit by DEdge or Return, it can simply use Slack Off to recover the moves while you wear your own sweeper down with DEdge since Return rarely 2shots it (even with stab!). 2. Base stats The base stats are making it an incredibly potent physical wall for UU standards. 95/80 is nothing to laugh at, as it's easily comparable to Blastoise's bulk, while Stoise does not have reliable recovery and resistance to fighting. Even most powerful physical strikers have huge trouble breaking through this defensive behemoth, wearing themselves down from both PP and HP (because Return does not 2shot in most cases) while it slacks off in your face. Good thing it doesn't have Regenerator here yet... Another mentionable thing is it's really great natural 110 base special defense, that makes even the strongest of our special attackers in tier being unable to oneshot it. While it calm minds or slacks off or statuses them. But for that, another point has to be made. Anyway, continuing with base stats, it has a very good 100 base special attack stat, making it's both STABs being fired off a respectable 120 special attack stat that might (and usually is) get boosted further with Calm Mind. It's only downside is the 30 base speed, making it being outspeeded by practically entire metagame bar Shuckle but that's actually it. 3. Movepool Slowking's movepool is absolutely insane, making it unpredictable to such a degree that it can counter literally every of it's checks. Crawdaunt? It can Signal Beam or Thunder Wave. Another Slowking? Toxic to slowly wear it down, or Signal Beam/ Shadow Ball to deal some damage to it. Scizor? Have a tasty flamethrower in yo face. Rarely, when Altaria comes to try setting up DD or with a weird restbell tox set, it can even icebeam it's ass. Exeggutor would look reliable, but I doubt it'd like Signal Beam or Flamethrower. Especially the first one. Obviously with such a large movepool, it's practically impossible to cover all the necessary threats thus Slowking suffers a strong 4MSS, which does not really stop it from doing it's job- walling the meta like a... king. Slowking's most important move is Slack Off, which made both Slowking and Slowbro top threats in their respectable tiers. Pairing it with Calm Mind, very often changes Slowking into undefeatable walking battle tank with both sides of it's defense powerful enough to swallow any strike and retaliate with a boosted special attack. Problem is that you cannot really predict what Slowking will throw on you until it already does, and the most reliable switch-in for it without Umbreon and Porygon2, became Clefable or Kanga, and you can see that in usage statistics. The biggest reason of spike in their usage is their ability to stop Slowking from statusing your whole team or scare it off with Tox while shrugging off the status of it's own with Aroma/ Rest. No offensive pokemon (unless you know Slowking has Twave and you are brave enough to switch in your Manectric, or you know it has toxic and your Swellow just waits to get the Guts Facade boost) will risk getting statused. And obviously the Slowking v Slowking matchups where we got the delightful CM war and "who gets the first crit" which I've seen happening few times although the status version of Slowking is taking over. Only solution to defeat Slowking is to wear it down with Toxic. Or crit it with a powerful STAB Thunderbolt or Crunch if you are overToasted. Reassuming: Slowking: +Spreads status +Bulky enough on both sides to wall absolute majority of metagame, especially after a CM boost +Delightful CM wars +Reliable recovery +Strong dual STAB +Great SATK stat for a wall +Insane movepool -Slow I'd really like to at least see a discussion thread for it as in almost every tournament it's in top 3 most used pokemon along with Plume.
  12. I wanted to go there ages before I met Rachel I swear upon my honor.
  13. I used to live in a small village in Poland. It was really tiny, but quiet and peaceful. I was raised in those surroundings for 23 years. In this year, March, I have moved to England... first Preston, now Manchester. Moving from tiny village into huge town, which is quite the opposite of "quiet and peaceful". Not even mentioniong all those hostile muslims. Where I wanted to go? Always had only 2 things on my mind. First was England, where I already am. Second was Australia. It's a distant dream since it's on the another side of the world, but I will go there, one day...
