WHAT'S THE METAGAME LIKE SO FAR?!

Smogon is awful right now. Zygarde is beyond broken and Aegi and Phero are on every team that isn't rain

People are aiming to use the strong stuff a couple of days into the meta? How odd.

Tapu Lele breaks everything

UBs on every team, Toxapex everywhere, Pelipper/Koko stacking...

When the tier feels more like the shitfest ubers is, I can understand the criticism. Though obviously to someone like you, criticism of anything is a sin.

Ive lost against this team a couple times

So weather wars meta is back?

>>30117647
Remind me again how Pelipper and Tapu Koko stack?

>>30118136

Pelipper flies. Get fucked Earthquake. Rain = 100% accurate Thunders. Tapu absorbs the Electric moves meant for Pelipper while Pelipper bulks everything else and fires off Hurricanes/boosted Scald/chips with U-Turn/Toxic/Knock Off.

Not weather wars as much as just Rain. Pelipper is a phenomenal rain setter and Koko hits hard as fuck with 100% Thunders under Electric Terrain. Plus Kingdra's always been waiting for a better rain team to shine on

i thought buzzwole was going to be underwhelming and pheremosa was the new deoxys-s.
What happened

>>30118116
and this is why I avoid competitive play. Seems too stressful to handle since the majority of pokemon I like can't compete

>>30119629
Pheromosa isnt as offensively weak as Deoxys-S, so it can sweep. Nothing is faster than it other than Ninjask and Deoxys, so it doesnt fear being outsped by anything unboosted without a scarf. Plus beast boost usually boosts its speed, so it just gets faster until the point where only priority can beat it. If it werent for the nerf to Gale Wings Talonflame could check it, but...

Same here man. Only I try to make them work and people say, "Lol XD Ur team sux". Sometimes I win though and it's great

With the advent of terrain wars, will Telekinesis find its niche in the ability to rob a pokemon of terrain benefits?

>>30119872
you are better off just using protect to stall

>>30119872
Very much doubt it. No one will run manual terrain setters either, it's not that big of a deal, really.
