After discussing this matter with the community and among ourselves, the UU Council has decided that Alakazam meets the Uber Offensive criteria for the Under-Used tier. After analyzing the tier it was evident that Alakazam is capable of "sweeping through a significant portion of teams in the metagame with little effort". This was made even more prominent with Umbreon and Porygon2, both respectable Special Walls, being moved up to the OU Tier by usage. While Alakazam can be checked by both Scizor and Houndoom, both have their own respective faults. Scizor is removed by Hidden Power Fire Alakazam and Houndoom is 2HKO'd by most +1 Signal Beams. Considering this, it was evident that there are very few switch ins for Alakazam and even less answers once it gets even just one Calm Mind. We understand CB Swellow can revenge kill Alakazam with Pursuit, but this is only guaranteed if Zam is at ~75% health. We simply believe Alakazam exerts too much pressure on the tier with its combined speed and power, and that there are not enough answers for this offensive cannon.

 

With this in mind, Alakazam has been banned to Borderline

 

 

Just an fyi for those that may be preparing for this tournament tomorrow.

You know, I wonder why people don't use Alakazam more; I mean, it's still a fearsome sweeper. Maybe it's because of all the Metagross and such wandering around, or people just prefer Espeon...

 

Yeah I think the reason is because it gets walled by steel really hard but people who have the blessing of having one with hp fire well, they should use it more :P but yeah people ofter prefer espeon because of morning and because it has a little bit more of bulk
