    Oh, leave Togekiss alone. Or else.

    I'm starting to see where you are comming from, and not just because I like Wobbo. A lot. I named her Bean.

    I'm going to bean Beam then lol

    Ugh, I'm so fed up with myself right now. At any generation I simply can't win :0 It's very frustrating since I'm usually a little...better >_> That stall team in ADV that used to rock (almost never lost) has gotten absolutely torn apart since returning. I wish I could blame it on hax, but my game hasn't been there. It's very annoying, lol

    It doesn't bug me much at all, since I really like Wobbo. Named her "Bean". Likes Sour Pokeblocks. Knows Charm.

    The users weren't idiots at all. I have the battle logs to prove it. It was just overpowered...by a STALL team. The first few I thought were flukes, but after that I thought something was up. It don't know, it gets so horrendously owned by anything above 100 base in either attack stat...

    It can obviously be an amazing pokemon, and I think it is one. However, one must not overlook its lack of ability at taking powerful hits. It can't switch in on anything that can 4HKO it given Spikes support, which tells me that it might not be as uber as one would think. by that I mean that you attack it as it switches in and you do damage that after 4 attacks would KO it. Given Spikes support, half of its health is gone. Let's say I'm using thunderbolt to take it down. Wobbuffet now can Mirror coat me, which if it's a 4HKO is going to put me down to about 40% health, while I can KO it.

    Think about that for a minute...how hard is it to 4HKO something with 190 base HP and 65 base Defenses? Those base stats can be compared with snorlax, who has less HP but the same base Def stat...and we all know how Snorlax can't take a physical hit.

    Without Spikes support, think 3HKO...not all that hard either on a pokemon with pretty weak defenses for something that is used to take hits and fire them back. I'm just no longer convinced that it is ultra-uber, though I still think Shoddy's "analysis" is totally bogus.

    If a pokemon has to over centralize the metagame to be uber, then what about Togekiss? Zapdos is the ONLY reliale counter (and quite frankly Toge is the only reason Zappy is on my stall team). Some other electrics do okay, but have fun switching on on Arua Spheres all the time! Besides, that's just asking Dugtrio to wipe you out. I'm not saying togekiss should be uber, but if over centralization is our big thing, then maybe we should consider it. Oh, and that's not even including its BP set and its amazing support movepool.

    While I don't think it should be uber, I must say some things that happen really don't make sense >.>

    EDIT: I'm not saying wobbuffet can't totally destroy half a team (because it can), but I think its power has been exaggerated. And let's not forget I didn't even take it into account when I made my team...

    And about Togekiss...it's just an example. I don't really think it's uber (though countering it is a total mess).

    Might be because those users were idiots.

    I really like Wobbo, but I don't se a reliable way of beating it. Unlike Duggy, it doesn't fall to one hit.

    I would love to use it. Hit me up with a profile message so we can continue this when I get back from the chinese restaraunt. Won Ton sucks.

    BL is the most useless tier in the history of any game I've ever heard of. It's just their to tell us what pokemon are used more than others, and we have usage statistics for that.

    Vire would overpower the UU game without question, and I know people would start up with Mantine + Electivire like I did :) BTW, Mantine is a good special wall given Shaymin or Celebi to back it up. PWN

    Also, I'm actually beginning to think Wobbuffet isn't as uber as one might think. I've run into five with my stall team (NOTE: STTALL TEAM! Wobbuffet is supposed to own these!), yet all 5 were a total non-factor and were just Toxic'd on the switch or met with Roars and Thunderbolts from our friend Zapdos. I don't know, I think its poor defenses might hinder its usefulness more than one would think, especially considering the huge threats in the metagame today.

    I still think it is too powerful for the UU metagame. So that means...BL. But, I of course don;'t care much for BL metagame at all. Just call it OU & stop wasting time. We already aren't using them in UU, so stop making me remember a whole 'nother tier.

    Joking aside...it really does suck, especially for how much it was hyped in the early days of DP. It has a weak phyiscal STAB, only below-average speed for a sweeper, and no way to boost its attack power outside of items. It is walled by some of the most common walls in the game and is just horrible. I'm surprised people even use that disgrace of an OU pokemon. It might sound harsh, but it is absolutely murdered by the metagame.

    BTW, I'll be gone Mon-Wed, just so you know. Hooray for camping trips!

Yeah, this is it for me. Five years ago today, I joined PC. Now my time here is coming to a close a half a decade later.

I won't go too in-depth here besides to say that my battling skills (and interest, to some degree) have eroded to the point where they couldn't be salvaged without time and effort that I can no longer muster. Furthermore, it just hasn't been all that fun for several years now for a ton of different reasons I do not wish wish to list, and having fun is the point...

This blog won't be very long. I obviously haven't posted many of these. Yeah, school can be a pain when you have a lot of homework and not a lot of energy.

Anyway, I originally thought that the second iteration of Stage 3 (to use Smogon's wording) would just be Manaphy and the already-OU Latias...and that's how it was going to be. But now Garchomp is being added into the test according to Jumpman, I would assume due to the close 44-41 vote in favor of it being Uber.

I figured I'd have some fun and predict the Stage 3 voting results. You can post some too if you'd like. I'll probably be wrong on about all of these, but I thought I'd have some fun so why not?


Shaymin-S - Uber

I think this will be voted Uber, actually. I think people are afraid of hax and afraid of Skymin's power and Speed. I actually don't blame them--it's a pretty effective Pokemon. I just wish...

They have finally been released, and you can find them here. I'm glad they're out, especially since I contributed to them this time around :3

The biggest "shocker" to me was Blissey at number 14 (if you include the Rotom formes, which I will do for this whole entry). How the mighty have fallen. Blissey is probably the best defensive Pokémon in the game, and it's not even close to the top ten. As a user of Blissey, my guess is that Blissey being vulnerable to Trick as well...

I know, long time, no see, right? People often complain about how S&M is dead, and while there isn't much we can do about that (after all, we cannot control who decides to frequent in the section), I figured that I might as well start using this again to maybe, possibly start some discussion. Honestly, I am still a bit puzzled by the failure of the Metagame Discussion Thread, and the best conclusion I can come to is that it failed because it was too bland or boring in some way. Hopefully I can...
