    but shadow tag is banned in uu tho. setup sweeper + memento dugtrio is still there. Feraligatr could be decent since Dug kils Electric-types. Could even run SD with Aqua Jet with the electric lizard removed.

    God, my favorite thing to do was get Wobbs behind a sub with Lopunny. Counter and Mirror Coat are ridiculous when you're bouncing back damage from hard hitters without taking a single scratch. Too bad Wobbs + Tyranitar is a dead giveaway on team preview. I can see people falling for it tho...

    Wobufett is debatable though. I use it and like it for its use /if/ done right. Wobuffet is not uncompetitive because it takes correct execution and can be prevented if played right. From what I've heard, there is no way to do this vs Goth and Sableye.

    I have already seen what you're talking about (the core of Sableye + Scarf Gothitelle). I think in that case it is uncompetitive by nearly guaranteeing it executes correctly. The argument that Shadow Tag removes any possible counterplay was already the main point for its uncompetiveness, but the...

    trappers are utter shit outside of shadow tag. maybe you're right in uu where their flaws are less noticeable, allowing them to trap easier.

    Metagame Monday #3: Fun Pokémon to use in VGC/OU

    Trappers (Wobbufett, Gothitelle, sometimes Dugtrio) are always fun for me because there's a certain level of skill needed to execute them correctly. They all have liabilities in terms of their bulk, power, or versatility so you have to play them just right if you want your strategy to work. The...

    Theorymon Thursday #1: Jolteon in OU

    New Ability: No Guard New Move: Blizzard To differentiate between the select grounded Electric-types that Jolteon faces competition with (Raikou, Manectric, and even Heliolisk), I figured that what Jolteon needed was hard hitting initial power to separate itself. Even though I like One...

    The ORAS OU Metagame Discussion Thread

    While that's cool, you also have to consider the fact that you trade off power and offensive potential in order to survive those attacks. I did some calcs of 252+ Atk AV Hoopa-U vs 20 Atk LO Kyurem and it actually puts out less damage. Keep in mind, I focused on using only one attack with...

    The ORAS OU Metagame Discussion Thread

    I agree that it's better in some aspects, but Kyurem-B is far more bulky (to the point where some defensive mons just can't break it), faster (!!!!), and has slightly better STAB options (Dragon- and Ice-type are two of the best attacking types in the game). Just the fact it's bulky and not that...

    Team Preview

    I agree with all you said, but I think the opposite is also true as you can see which Pokemon you must preserve in order to counter a certain Pokemon. With how offensive the metagame got in Gen 5, the advent of team preview was somewhat of a blessing in disguise as it somewhat helped you prepare...

    'Blue Impact' / 'Red Flash' Japan's XY8 Sets, Next Set Block Titled 'XY: BREAK!'

    If Poison-types were still classified under the Grass TCG typing, Gengar + Crobat would be a nightmare under the new Grass-type BTS. Thank god they're not anymore, right? ; )

    Fun If You Could implement a Metagame Format For This Game, How Would You Do it?

    Those aren't tiers that you listed, but rather just ideas for restrictions for a side game with friends or your league. Essentially what you did is define a unique metagame, like how the Professor Cup does unique twists on decks or how Little Cup is handled in the video games. This is not what a...

    RMT One Thousand and One Nights

    One Thousand and One Nights If you've ever talked to me, you'll understand that I don't like XY. I'll admit, it's better than BW by miles, but I've still yet to find any fun in the game. When teambuilding, I'll find myself repeating the same concepts and ideas to the point where it feels like...

    I really can't help you beyond that. Just look at the decks available, determine what skills would be needed to make the most use of it, and see if you yourself have those skills.
