Who the frick cares about the opinion of smogontrannies, they represent not even 1% of pokemon fans
FTFY
If you haven't quit with Smogon during Gen 5 before they went full resetera and a fanfic meta laughing stock than you should have a nice day with them.

That shit was boring as frick. Singles are very fine for story related stuff but that‘s it.
Don't modern battle facilities tend to pick Pokemon and sets geared towards countering your own team? I swear if I run something long enough in Supers that every NPC is going to pack an especially potent countermeasure, either the exact same Pokemon or something else that falls into that niche.
Yeah except if you don't have shitty Pokémon and an actual team you can outlast it, they can't choose 3 Pokémon that will counter every single Poké in your team at once, and the AI doesn't switch so it's giga easy nowadays.
>VGC player >can't beat NPCs with a shell smasher and a legendary
Seems about right.
>hax >some pokemon have priority moves >if you are unlucky you are against a fricking vaporeon which means you have to hope for a struggle win.
Or you play doubles and the games are much faster and need more thinking
Competitive Pokemon is a joke. No one should care. Gamefreak themselves don't give a shit, if they did the game would be balanced better than it is. Cause right now it's half assed.
>Despite the loss of HP Fire, it managed to adapt so well to the point that it makes the best Steel type in ubers struggle
The gigachad of all steel mons
No you're the moron who decided to dedicate your life to "competitive pokemon" that isn't actually competitive and bans anything that threatens the "lando, clefairy, + 2 or 3 legendaries, weavile " team composition
Ubers is just a trainwreck of a format to try to balance, idk why you would care
Also fricking Heat Wave NDM just to deal with one mon that may or may not show up is clearly a sign of something going wrong, I can see why Zone would be broken up there as trapping and eliminating/weakening NdM means all those broken Ubers it helped keep in check are now free to roam unopposed, at least that's what I believe happens in such an unbalanced meme format
>someone finds a fun gimmick to force a ko >its used on like one team at a tournament >every tournament has one team like this (same player btw) >beats smogon mod >smogon mod says we have to ban it because it beat one player
Its just salt at this point that a few high player council members can't play the same xy team they've been playing for years.
Just wait until they learn about Smogon mods kicking people from the server because the opponent was winning against the laddering staff.
Or about them creating alts to scout their opponent teams, or whiny homosexuals like koko and that israelite finch, and the power tripping groomers etc etc.

I fricking hate this board, get the frick out of here and go play outside. Take the rest of the literal ESL reddit children with you.
It can Iron Defense to plus 6 and then use Body Press but Necrozma can still frick it up with Heat Wave or run Shed Shell. Smogies cannot afford to lose their perfect movesets or precious items such as leftovers so the only solution is a ban.

smoggays should be gassed

gen 5 OU was handeled so badly that gen 5 ubers, the banless tier, is more balanced than the tier that can ban unbalanced stuff
Just play VGC, no clue why you morons complain about singles all the time but then refuse to play the format that fixes most of these problems

Terribark?

I'm sorry you got downvoted on Reddit OP

I haven’t played showdown since 2018. Ubers and monotype were the shit
lando t is overcentralizing

lol this guy is so mad and moronic he quoted the wrong post, absolutely boiling lmao
How does he do it bros
I don't get it why is magnet pull an issue?
it's not, here's the thing

tl;dr: trapping is uncompetitive, big shocker
Those avatars are fricking hideous and disgusting, I don't understand how can people use reddit
Typical smogon

I feel sad imagining the vast majority of casuals would read this and believe it just to fuel their hate boner towards Smogon

Why the hell are their threads formated like that? Makes it a real pain in the ass to read.
Oh ok a bunch of random people on Reddit are definitely to be taken more serious than Smogon users
>”just adapt” is a fallacy except when you need to run dedicated anti-stall mons
Smogonbros…
rent free, casualshitter
What can zone even do back? Hidden power got killed last I heard.
It can Iron Defense to plus 6 and then use Body Press but Necrozma can still frick it up with Heat Wave or run Shed Shell. Smogies cannot afford to lose their perfect movesets or precious items such as leftovers so the only solution is a ban.
>if some says to adapt I'm just gonna block my ears and turn away because I don't want to
What a gay
>fanfic meta
Nobody hates change more than Smogon.
What is this actually about? You just posted some reddit screencap
>magnezone is le broken
>spooky ghost horse with 160 special attack and 150 speed is ok though
You know Calyrex-S is broken when it's only counter has more usage than it.
>banning Mag from ubers
This isn't Shadow tag though. The mon is dead weight depending on the opposing team's composition.
NDM is on 70% of Ubers teams.
Mag is probably not going to be dead weight.
