Why isnt lugia in OU?
>>29703172
It's too good
>>29703172
Furries favorite Pokémon.
>>29703172
Is that cropped porn?
>>29704149
That's where you're wrong, mister.
>>29704149
You could say that about literally every pokemon.
>>29704156

>>29704262
Google Images and SauceNao return nothing
I'm gonna need a source, OP

Fuck, could you imagine OU stall with Lugia?
> Base 110 Speed, Multiscale and Recover/Roost
> Defog
> Calm Mind
> Completely walls Mega Lopunny
> Immune to Spikes and stuff
> STAB Aeroblast
It'd be bonkers. Not overpowered, exactly, but it'd be the new Aegislash on steroids.

This. Lugia's defended are good enough as is, but when you couple that with its speed tier + roost and multi scale, it should be pretty obvious why it's banned.
>>29704628
It would be very good on stall but at the aame time it can't handle stall
The combo of Mega Sableye and Unaware Clefable completely stop every feasible Lugia set, hell in general it can't handle Magic Bouncers which make Mega Diancie and even Absol checks
>>29705241
So basically the only reason its uber is because of its stats alone
>>29703172
>the ultimate Stall pokemon
No thanks
>>29705263
Wouldnt that be giritina though?
>>29705261
It is actually incredibly resourceful, along with those stats of course. Lugia starts having problems when it can't status or phaze the opposition
OU Lugia would be an Offensive mon than can also play defensive, the only reason for not use offesive Lugia in Ubers is for the powercreep, but in OU he can use CM+Roost to destroy everything with Aeroblast and one coverage move, is like DD+Roost Zardx or CM Clefa but strongest, unbreackable and faster

:^)
>>29705261
yeah it's "countered" by a combination of 2 mons that only sees play on stall teams
must be shit outside of stats
It has a good movepool, multscale+roost and a solid typing
>>29705351
Giratina has better HP, but Lugia has far better defenses and movepool, on top of Multiscale.
Lugia has an incredible Calm Mind/reflect set. When combined with Multiscale, you have a Lugia that hits like a truck and takes so little damage that leftovers often gets it back to full. It's just simply a better wall than Giratina will ever be.
Give it some better moves and we'd see that change.

No set is perfect.
>>29706014
No one is saying lugia is perfect or unbeatable anon. Just too good to be in ou. Stop being a retard
