1 regen mon is fine, pref a bulky grass. If we get that and slowbro tho lol god save us all

It is important and added a lot in the ways of indirectly telling a person they are being dumb without having to write an inflammatory post about it.

Banned but yeah. Espeon was a key component of Denissssss team which got the whole baton pass ban ball rolling.

Considering the fact that a complete shitmon like Espeon rose to OU just from having this ability I think it's safe to say Xatu will replace it (unless MMO keeps it in OU just to spite me). It's better in every way. That said it's not gonna split NU or UU in half I think.

This moment prolly arrived with Xatu here lol

Definitely UU for Sharpedo. Always gets banned from the tier below it.

Does it affect them at all?

Crawdaunt for OU. Calcs: CB Crawdaunt two shots everything not named Bulky Salamence or Elo Orb Milotic and if it gets a Crunch def drop it's over anyways.

Yeah looking at the tier just hard BL it lmao

Craw is a mon I've been wondering on where it'd end since the very beginning. It's a mon that has historically given Feraligatr some heavy competition in its own tier so yeah definitely a solid UU for now. The only reason I do not suggest OU is because the lack of buffed Knock Off/Dark makes it a much weaker Pokemon than what I have in mind, albeit it is compensated by now having Close Combat. tl;dr: OU if you wanna be hyper safe, UU if you wanna be lax and test the waters (no pun intended)

Originally it was because we had no mega stones and z crystals to use as a dedicated switch in to Knock Off users. Eventually SWSH came out and Masuda kinda forgot about that balance issue. Nowadays it's prolly so our fighting types, specifically the already overwhelming Conkeldurr can be managed. If you want the utility of the move it's still there and is perfectly usable, other Pokemon like Bisharp and Weavile have decent STAB in Night Slash, there's no real need to buff it.

Also question about Ditto and how it interacts with Hidden power. Assuming I fight a mon IV'd to have a certain HP and just having the move Hidden Power normally I assume I'll copy Hidden Power with it utilizing my own stats for the typing. But what if I fight someone who used gems to change it? Will it copy let's say Hidden Power Fire if they used them? What if I change my own Hidden Power type using gems on it?

Annoying, will likely move up on its own. I don't think it will require a manual move up yet. With this, Quag and Ditto we have some breathing room against a lot of the more annoying sweepers in the game. Hope we get Zam too as something you can stick in offense to soak up at least one hit.

Quagsire flipflops between bottom PU and OU depending on how it feels. Don't move it up, it will likely rise on its own but it won't be a defensive uber in NU.

It's over lads, Quagsire can ignore the boosts now :^)

When it becomes meta defining like every single other instance of it getting banned. It's just a matter of when it happens.

Staraptor has always historically been BL even with legendaries in lower tiers. Unless MMO finds the trick to dealing with it I can't see it not getting banned.

Staraptor is a spicy one.

I disagree with kicking king to OU so fast.

I don't think we want buffed outrage with a potential Multiscale Dnite and Moxiemence without stuff like Jirachi or Latios around.

Oh god you're right. And with the clown state of how everything is being implemented without consulting the TC first that's actually feasible. Grim

Gothitelle is never ever getting released.

Cool, offense gets fucked even more by this mon unless I have these two mons.

Ban conk pls
