How has the metagame changed since B/W?

It's basically stalls and mega evolutions

Ubers and OU are broken messes, the latter is stall cancer, weather wars are no more, and VGC had a brief good stint before becoming the currently most cancerous meta.

interesting.
Shouldn't there be more offensive oriented teams than stalls now that mega evolutions are common?

Stalls for days. If you don't have a well rounded team and some luck, you get bodied.

The meta is now much, much less reliant on weather. I'd say only about a tenth of high-ladder teams have weather as a main focus.

I really only play Users and OU. I can say that Users is currently Hyper and Bulky Offense oriented (stall is mediocre and nonexistant), and OU is pretty stall-oriented at the moment.

VGC is even shorter than it used to be. Overcentralized as fuck. There's even a term, CHALK, that describes the main team that people use. VGC is basically what shitters on this board want you to believe Smogon is like.

For the most part, these anons are talking about the ladder. The tours that I've seen haven't had a lot of stall teams at all, in fact.

Stall is nonexistent you shitters.
