Why isn't he OU And don't say that green ball's name

Don't worry, we also carry grass knot on mega metagross.

Victini is the worst offender of energy ball though.

Used absorb

Because he's the second worst Pokemon of his typing. Why use Quagsire over Swampert?

>>29052118
Unaware laughing at nearly anything SD and DD user.

Zard needs Outrage and adamant to win same with Pinsir, Haxorus needs mold Breaker.

Quagsire is miles better than swampert for that niche.

>>29051318
Clefable. Clefable does Quagsire's main niche without carrying a quad weakness to a type that every team carries to deal with Rotom-Wash. Any time you would use a Quagsire, you would be better set to use a Clefable instead.

I agree, it is very sad. Quagsire is great.

People got stupid again and don't realize that stall is the most powerful playstyle in smogon rules again. Regardless he'll still be being used by whoever becomes the top OU player, which will be a stall player.

Isn't Charizard Y more popular in comp now? That'd absolutely slaughter quagsire

>>29052250
Y is only more popular in Doubles. X is the way to go in Singles.

>>29052139
And Clefable is miles better than Quagsire as an unaware wall, by virtue of actually being a safer switch-in to any of those mentioned sweepers.

Tangela.

Clefable can't wall Scizor, Bisharp, Metagross and Charizard X. Curse Quagsire can also win vs Magic Guard Calm Mind Clefable, something that Unaware Clefable struggles to do. They fit clearly different niches as Unaware walls and neither is better than the other. The problem is that Quagsire is a fairly one dimensional Pokémon who only fits in stall, so he becomes OU only when stall is spammed on the ladder.

Quagsire @ Leftovers
Ability: Unaware
EVs: 248 HP / 92 Def / 168 SpD
Calm Nature
IVs: 0 Atk
- Stockpile
- Scald
- Recover
- Toxic

After taking out the few grass attack user of your opponent, Stockpile until max with Quagsire and toxic your way through your opponents team. Use Scald for Steel or Poion types. If opponent has something that is immune to toxic and burn, pp stall it or take it down with the grass attack user.

Had a niche, lost the niche, got btfo by several other metas until it found a new spot

But it also doesn't instantly die if it accidentally is in on the thing carrying a vital coverage move for Rotom. You won't always know what has Energy Ball, either. I'm not saying it's useless, but Clefable doesn't have that glaring weakness, and instead has preferable, predictable weaknesses.

Angrily throw my fedora to the ground and complain about my opponent using strong Pokemon instead of the ones he really loves.
