because you suck OP

>>31021792
Keeping stall in check, EQ's distribution.
Low accessibility, easy prediction, easy to counter.
ember
mold breaker
ember again
taunt

op sucks

how is shell smash easy to counter?

if they pull out a shell smash mon, you're fucked unless you have a counter move on the mon you already have out there.

>metagross has always had 4mss
>relatively low distribution, nothing is fantastic with it, not impossible to stop once set up
>certain sets gained some checks, personally i still want it gone
>average strength when set up, vulnerable to status and mold breaker
>horrible neutral stab, mediocre coverage, hp fire dugtrio
>like lando-t in a way, its just really solid

>>31021792
just switch tiers and play Nu like the faggot that you are.

>+2 252+ Atk Minior-Down Earthquake vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Toxapex: 112-134 (71.3 - 85.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Toxapex can then haze.

>>31021924
haze on a bulky mon, priority on most of the users can fuck them over, sturdy/sashed pokemon, and a plethora of checks that, even after the boost, the pokemon in question cannot beat.

Did you forget cloyster, the former best shell smash user, was in UU? its not too hard to counter anon

>>31021924

Taunt?

>>31021924
pretty much only two pokemon that can use it effectively is Cloyster and Minior

rest are too slow that even at plus two they dont out speed anything

252+ Atk Minior Acrobatics (110 BP) vs. 244 HP / 8 Def Gliscor: 135-160 (38.3 - 45.4%) -- 59% chance to 3HKO after Poison Heal

>common weaknesses, not actually insurmountably strong or bulky, poor STAB coverage
>you can't be serious, it'd make more sense to ban literally the only Pokemon that might be busted with it (Minior) and even that's not terribly threatening on its own since Unaware Quagsire and Clefable wall the shit out of it.
>Genesect is busted I'll give you that
>Mold Breaker, +2 base 90 Attack with both STABs under 100 BP isn't actually that hard to tank
>Terrakion hits harder, poor STAB coverage
>Taunt it. Magic Bounce would probably make its life difficult as well.

>>31022143
>>Genesect is busted I'll give you that
anon, if genesect leaves, the tapus will destroy the meta

Because Smogon rules aren't fucking official.

And Smogon tries to avoid having broken check broken.
