swords dance when?
BL as its own tier when
>>31650845
There's always this retard
>>31650558
BL isn't a home
It's purgatory
>>31650845
Isn't BL effectively just the UU ban list? Why make a ban list a tier?

Z-Mirror Move would be better in some cases.
>>31650782
Z-Mirror Move gives it +2 Attack.
Mirror Move
Brave Bird
Close Combat
Quick Attack / Double-Edge
It's actually pretty good.
>>31650920
no it isnt, have fun getting outsped and OHKOd/THKOd by everything
>>31650874
Should have been baptized then.
>>31650888
>he says unironically when Ubers is a thing
>>31651118
Besides Mega Fug being banned for some fuckall reason Ubers is pretty much a ban list too.

UU can't catch up with him.GF should just give him DD and ExtremeSpeed and throw him in OU
>>31650654
Staraptor 3 Power Creep 0
>>31650700
Why did he get quickbanned?
>>31651220
because it's motherfucking Staraptor
>>31651220
>give him DD and ExtremeSpeed and throw him in OU
You jest, but
>E-speed staraptor
Fuck, I want that so bad.
>tfw no mega staraptor so my bro can firmly be OU instead of limbo hell
>>31650917
MOST cases.
Reminder that BL doesn't mean the Pokemon isn't good enough for OU, it just means it's not being used a lot.
>that means it's not good
Alomomola and Tangrowth before OU say hi.
>>31651268
you're right, but take a look at staraptor's past. It's the walking example of not being good enough for OU, but too good for UU. Every time people want to insult smogon, Staraptor's horrible limbo status is brought up. The thing had less usage than UU mons ffs
>>31651257
not if its up against something with flash fire and similar
>>31651287
well thing is, Staraptor is good at what it does, but there is always 1 pokemon that slightly better in every way so that gets the OU spot
at the same time its technically OU material in every possible way so its power level is way to high in UU, if you let it into UU it would by itself be a massive centralizing force that pushes a good 30 or so other mons out of UU
and while it sucks for staraptor fans, those other 30 also have fans
>>31651287
I honestly think he'll be better this gen now that Talonflame got nerfed. Pokeaim recently referred to him as a sleeper 'mon.
Staraptor will always have the most common dual typing and be utterly redundant.
Almost anything else would be better.
Is this another stealth pony thread?
'Cause it smells like stealth pony thread.
>>31652905
literally how?
>>31652886
And Staraptor is quite easily the best out of all of them.
Look at the retards saying BL's a home, it's a shelter!
>>31650549
Well every bird needs to leave their "nest" someday
>>31651178
>Besides Mega Fug being banned for some fuckall reason
Probably because it's an absurdly strong mega that can hold a fucking item and has retarded coverage with an equally retarded ability
