It's Time To End The Banning Of Legends here at PC

I think we should keep it realistic aswell, as all legendarys are rare, like Mew. So its kinda of a realism involved in this aswell, not just by how powerful they are.
 
NO no no. You misunderstood. Please look over my first post!

i did read it. i know which are ubers which are not, but it seems the common battlers just don't want to fight legendary pokemon, period. to them, all legends are ubers.

anyway, moltres, articuno, and entei are pretty meh so whoever thinks legendaries are legends because they are strong are wrong. being rare means nothing either. shinies are rare, are we going to ban shiny butterfree from battles now?
 
The way I see it is that legendaries became legendaries for a reason and that is because they are strong enough to be considered legends. If salamence is so strong, how come he isn't a legend, maybe because it is his low defenses, and tyrannitar, maybe because of it's super low speed, and metagross, again low speed. If a pokemon was considered uber or legendary, then it is better than normal pokes therefore too good for normal play, I think this shouldn't even be being discussed. Legends are legends for a REASON!!!!!
So by your logic Attack Deoxys isn't uber because it has bad HP, Defense and Sp.Defense? Zomg! Now we can all go around using Deoxys in standard battles! =O And Regigigas is totally uber because it has a sexy base Attack of 80 and a sexy base Speed of 50 for the first few turns it's out. That totally doesn't give you time to either buff up a Garchomp or something or just beat the snot out of Regigigas with a Fighting type move. Let's not forget that it's relatively easy to breed a Pokémon for good IVs, nature and in some cases ability, while you're going to have to catch a legendary Pokémon a hell of a lot of times to get one with good IVs and nature.

And what about Registeel? That sure is one hell of a fighter... not. Its only good stats are Defense and Special Defense and its movepool isn't too great either. It works as a decent wall, but people will just exploit its weaknesses and a Flare Blitz or Close Combat from Infernape will hurt Registeel no matter what so it isn't that great of a wall. Its offensive capabilities are also severely lacking. Yup, that's totally Uber. ^^ Banning legendaries just because they're rare is just stupid. I bet no one would ban Zapdos if it was found in the wild, so why is it banned when it's a one-per-game Pokémon? That's just ridiculously stupid.

I myself am going to get myself a good IVd, Bold Uxie once I get Diamond and I'll use it as much as I damn well please.

So by divine logic noob players use legendaries correct? So let me get this straight....

I use legends so i must be a noob(which we all know isnt the case)
Aragornbird uses legends so he must be a noob too right?(we already know this isnt true either as he is the best player on this website)
Samson uses legends that must make him a noob(nope wrong again)

*lets say* Richard steel started using legends in his battles would you consider him a noob? Especially when he beats almost all the players here with non legend pokemon? I dont think so

Do you see a pattern here? The pokemon you use do not dictate your skill level. Especially with the majority of the subpar legends that are out nowadays. You people need to seriously open your eyes.
 
Wow, does this thread even have to do with making challenges and gathering friend codes? I honestly don't think so. You make a valid point, but it's people's choice whether or not they want legends.

Closed~
