Why is Metagross so shit at competitive?

>>29321663
Because the meta is gross.

>>29321663
it's still usable, just with defensive nerfs it got hit kinda hard

Metagross is pretty decent is uu and mega metagross is decent in OU with healing wish support (but pretty much any sweeper is)

Its not shit per say, but it certainly isn't lando good

>>29321663
It was beast until they gave it extra weaknesses.

Because the Gen VI nerf on the Steel type was the second worst thing to have ever happened.
Man I miss Meteor Mashing faggots a few generations ago.

>>29321663
Mostly because it has been nerfed like whoa over the years.

>Gen4
>The Physical/Special split added more moves that could target Meta's bad special bulk.

>Gen5
>Explosion nerf killed one of it's main sets
>Weather wars dominated by rain/sun made it's lackluster special bulk more apparent
>4 Movepool syndrome started to kick in

>Gen 6
>Stell types got nerfed defensive-wise, making take neutral damage from both ghost and dark attacks. Because of that, stuff like Shadow Ball, Knock Off and Sucker Punch made it lost it's glory.

Say what you will about Mega-Evolutions, but if it wasn't for those Meta wouldn't be as viable as it is now. Granted, it still has all those hyndrances I mentioned before, but it's better than nothing.

>shitters thinking metagross is bad

>>29321663
except metagross is still pretty good, especially when considering how hard physical psychic types have it

No reliable ways to boost besides PuP which is kinda shit. Nerfed typing. 4MSS
