Kangaskhan might drop. Lucario and Salamence are gonna stay up there though. I'm not sure about Mawile, that could go either way.

The official game offers no competitive support whatsoever for singles.

Rated Battle Spot is not a good format, 90% of matches are decided on team preview and picks, no actual strategy or skill.

Hey, it's not Smogon's fault that the majority of new Pokemon introduced (sans legendaries) are slow, mixed attackers with mediocre defenses and shallow movepools.
>>
>>30627348
Having 5 options for switching versus 2 opens up a huge deck of possibilities and offers a lot more room for the possibility of good and bad decisions even existing, as opposed to the single obvious decisions in 3x3 singles, where your fate is most likely set as soon as you pick your 3 Pokemon.
>>
>>30627378
these usage stats are literally based on 1695 elo though

git gud
>>
>>30627372
And if you combine their usage, Landorus is #1 in the tier.

Unfortunately, if they didn't boot it to Uber in Gen 5 or 6, they ain't booting it now.

X/Y had plenty of electric attacks if not STAB and Skarmory did fine. The amount of physical electric attacks is far lower and you don't switch Skarmory in one specials anyway. If it's a SpD Skarm then obviously you switch out to Alolan Marowak or some shit.

I personally stopped using Skarmory and replaced with Celesteela but that thing also dies to electric types.

One of the main reasons I haven't touched OU since near the end of gen 5. I just hate all the pokemon there. At least in the lower formats I can use pokemon I like and have fun too.

It can't be trapped by these electric threats unlike Skarm. It nullifies Scald spam and while Electrics are strong right now, Alolan Marowak is a great anti-Electric tool. Pair Mantine with Alolan Marowak and a bulky ground and you have a solid defensive core.

That's because before Gen 5 they did usage calculations differently and didnt weigh them, pokemon like him, Smeargle, Ninjask, and Umbreon were absolute garbage and generally unviable in Gen 4 OU but got enough usage from low ladder to be put in OU.

Also the ladder back then was a lot easier than the ladder back now. The majority of people playing on Shoddy Battle in the DPP era were retarded kids.

Hey retard, you know you can use UU mons in OU right? It doesn't even matter if a Pokemon is in UU. At this point it just means they are OU Pokemon that aren't picked that often. Pokemon jump from UU to OU all the time. Just recently it was Azelf, Zapdos, Kyurem-B, etc.

Blame them if you don't like it, nothing Smogon can do about it because they're not dumb cucks who arbitrarily ban shit based on legendary status if it's not broken in standard play.

>>30627223
They're not going to do any suspects until at least March. They want to give the meta some time to stabilize and time to figure out what new things might need a suspect. People are currently considering Pheromosa and Genesect pretty obvious bans and Tapu Lele might end up banned as well.

>>30627334
BSS is not a 'no skill' meta, it's a meta built around matchups and prediction. Once you get high enough on the ladder you run into the same 50 or so guys over and over so it becomes a matter of knowing how they like to play.

>>30629077
You can't take these stats too seriously, everything that got something new has artificially inflated usage. Only some of the new pokes will stay as high as they are, and old good stuff will slowly rise back up unless new stuff hard counters it.
