Seeing the drop for Clodsire and the rise for Zapdos with the OU tier honestly has me worried for the meta. This may become a scenario similar to gen 1 NU, where there are a few overcentralizing types in the tier that will stuff out other types. Of course this is just speculation; the meta will shift to deal with Zapdos and Clodsire can still be used in OU. Eager to see how the tier utilizes Zapdos.
@@helper809 Oh PLEASE. Like half the bans have been OU staples for generations. It's all just a combination tera favoring offensive mons as a gimmick overmuch, and most forms of healing being nerfed this gen.
@@hockeater No? Most OU staples are dropping fast. The most current regulation isn’t really indicative of the how the game has been played over the past year or so. Paradox Pokémon that can get a free 50% boost to their stat of choice, ogrepon, the treasures of ruin, absurdly specialized starters, the now widely-distributed body press, Tera (both offensive and defensive) whatever the hell they were thinking with Miraidon. Gen 9 has been so volatile compared to any other generation we’ve seen so far.
@@hockeater What no? Half the bans were new pokemon, chi yu, miraidon, koraidon, esparatha. Most of the OU mind just dropped down. Where did you get that from LOL
Chill down. All the wall breakers aren't getting banned, you're just over exaggerating everything. And those banned Pokemon ARE too tough to handle. Tera made boost sweepers to just get one turn to setup and sweep your team. And again, it's easy to do because they can either offensive Tera to make their moves even more powerful or defensive Tera to guarantee a chance to setup. If you really want to play with those banned rightfully banned pokemon, just play ubers.
Hoopa is more then balanced by its speed and awful typing, its also much worse without glowking so i dont think it deserves a ban whatsoever, but its not the only way to break stall, a hazard core + a decent knock off user can break any stall team, and the best hoopa set is probably AV which isnt breaking stall most of the time@@foulplayg
