DISCLAIMERS ON FORMATS COVERED:
Notice I said POPULAR formats, meaning a format where there is a significant amount of people who compete in it for tournaments and so on and so forth.
For the record, I do not care what rules or formats people play their battles by nor am I saying these formats are the only formats that should be played. The way you play Pokemon is between you and your opponent. I just like examining popular tournament formats.

@shellnut8224 3 года назад

lax and cloyster give it tons of problems, imo lax is better than tauros since it is so much safer due to Rest and Reflect allowing it to heal up and shrug off damage.

@sadykdanny 3 года назад

@@shellnut8224 Tauros is effective because he limits your answers. The speed + crit rate play a huge role in this. Lax is sorely missing this, as such he doesn't threaten as much and can be picked off by faster pokemon in a pinch, whereas Tauros can sweep if given an opportunity. While Lax can reflect + rest to heal up, doing so is a risk considering the high crit rates in RBY, unless used against slower pokemon such as opposing Lax. I wouldn't consider this combination a reliable check/counter to Tauros.

@shellnut8224 3 года назад

@@sadykdanny To break Lax with reflect up it takes 2 crits in a row, that is a 1/25 chance which Tauros is not banking on. Furthermore, the ability for lax to pressure stuff without fearing Thunder Wave or any chip at all makes it much more applicable in my opinion. Tauros is bloody good don't get me wrong but I find lax is better due to how much more freely it can come onto the field.

@sadykdanny 3 года назад

@@shellnut8224 @Shellnut You're not wrong, Snorlax comes in and out of battle with ease if it is rest/reflect. The only problem is when your opponent is taking advantage of your Lax by burning sleep turns on their Zam or Starmie during opportune moments and safely switching to their Lax, resting up and repeating. You can lose serious momentum against teams that do this, especially when these psychic beasts wake up and terrorize your team after Eggs has long blown up. Not to mention rest/reflect takes 2 moveslots leaving you with either body slam/eq or body slam/ice beam, which ice lax takes advantage of the former and gengar takes advantage of the latter. There are also other tricks like baiting ice beam from ice lax onto your switch to Lapras. God forbid your opponent has both and gets mix up opportunities that get them in for free and start causing trouble. Fortunately, neither are common, but it should be noted. Tauros will not stand for these tactics, however. Get Tauros in for free on a sleep turn and you will be rewarded. With high attack power and speed, most things have to be able to take 2 hits, and that's not including crits or para. Against Snorlax, you get to fish for crit, which gives you a chance to remove an important threat. Everything else can get paralyzed and hacked. There is no other pokemon that can threaten everything in the pokedex like he does, whether it be with crit body slams/hyper beams or its perfect coverage options. If he comes in, someone has to go down. That level of threat is mandatory for a team to function.

@shellnut8224 3 года назад

@@sadykdanny I do agree Tauros can definitely deal more damage it gets in, the problem is that it is scared by paralysis and can't heal, so it can't come in as often as Snorlax can which limits how much damage it can do overall. As an example, if there is a paralyzed Chansey at 78%, I can't use Tauros to punish since it just twaves my Tauros and cripples it, but I can punish with lax since I am not crippled by Thunder Wave and can heal up any chip it does for later. It is the ability to bring Snorlax in over the course of the game so much more readily that allows it to have more overall impact on the game in my opinion. Yes, Rest can be punished by the opponent but you can read those punishes and attack them as they come in. It probably comes down to preference, but I prefer a pokemon which is able to have a consistent impact in the early and midgame since it can come in often and do its job and them more rather than a pokemon which gets immediately crippled for the rest of the game when the opponent predicts right and twaves me on the switch. ps: ice beam on snorlax sucks, no reason to use it when everyone and their mother spams cloyser nowadays lol.

Some "normal" Pokemon like Garchomp and Aegislash went to Ubers, because how dangerous they were. Also some "common" Pokemon were very good in OU for many generations, like Chansey or Tyranitar. The same situation was with Tauros - it was practically the most used and fearsome Pokemon in OU - because of high crit rate, Hyper Beam being OP (and Tauros gets STAB from it), and the fact Fighting-type sucked in Gen 1 (mainly due to lack of good Fighting-type attacks). Only few select Pokemon could defeat him

The year is 20RBY. Everyone plays Tauros at 2000 ladder levels of perfection.

The fourth move slot is irrelevant in the Tauros 1v1, Hipmonlee made a program to calculate Tauros 1v1 odds and the optimal line of play every time is bslam->bslam->hbeam unless you are in the opponents Hyper Beam range in which case it is optimal to hbeam.

@thisrandomdude2880 2 года назад

@@danielsurvivor1372 If we consider the 200 base speed of regieleki, and that the formula for crit rate in RBY is X*100/512 for a normal move and X*100/64 on a high crit rate move (i.e Slash, Night Slash, Razor Leaf etc.) where X is the base speed of a pokemon, Regieleki would have a crit rate of 39.0625% with a regular move, and a crit ratio of *312.5 fucking percent on moves with high crit rate meaning THESE MOVES WOULD CRIT ALL THE TIME.* Thankfully for the RBY metagame, Regieleki is faaaaaar away and doesn't have high crit rate moves anyways. A 39% crit rate would still be INSANE though. For comparison, in gen 1, the pokemon with the highest crit rate is Electrode with a 27.34375% crit rate off of a base 140 speed stat.

Man. Tauros has got to be one of the most experimental Pokemons I've ever seen competitively. He started off great in Gen. 1, butchered in Gen. 2 & 3, got back up in Gen. 4 & 5, went down again in Gen. 6 & 7 and than rise back up in Gen. 8. This Pokemon has it's rough. But in the end, it came off pretty decent. Now I wonder how it's Gen. 5 counterpart will do.

Swords dance likely wouldve been enough. But any status allfiction can cripple Tauros. IT would likely, this day in OU or UU, be a late game cleaner.

I don't think they would be that great, in Gen 1 there wasn't much that resisted an Hyper Beam, and if they do, they got a free hit and that's it. In current gens, mispredicting an hyper beam means something will set up in your face and potentially sweep your team, the risk is much higher. Not to mention many pokémon have moves that hit harder with less drawbacks and they aren't broken at all, same for pokémon with absurdly high atk/spa like Hoopa Unbound, who's not even close to Uber material.

The reason that Tauros is no longer OU definitely has something to do with a combination of not having an ability that kept his critical hit rate, recharge rate, and lower special attack. I'm hoping that Mega Evolutions are not done for good, because I think that while Tauros might be too overpowered if he got a normal evolution, a mega evolution would be a fair upgrade. With his stats, I still think that power creep would have affected Tauros, what with the increasing number of Fighting moves and priority, although how much is hard to say.

@sketchydude8431 Год назад

That, and Normal Types have gotten kinda worse over time The reason they were good in Gen 1 is because fighting types were practically a non factor, mainly due to being really bad (the best fighting type, Machamp, was still pretty bad) But in later gens, Fighting types became more and more prominent, while the normal types lack of resistances and, at best, niche immunity became more and more clear
