100 speed is considered too slow

I thought 100 speed was considered the baseline of speed?

Like I know that ORAS made a bit of a speed creep by making everything 110, but wow.

You can thank Garchomp for that.

100 speed isn't slow, it's just a trash speed tier because they're are so many pokemon with 100 base speed.

>>31690646
he didn't say it is slow, he said it is too slow.

different statements you can drive 100mph in a race, but if your opponent does 105mph you're too slow.

End this meme. You know what the average speed in gen 6 OU was? 88.67. I just calculated it. Speed is definitively important but the "IT HAS UNDER 100 SPEED ITS SHIT REEEEEEEEEEE" needs to end.

Fucking clefable is UU. With keldo, genies and gliscor

>>31690953
You do realize shit like Mega Sableye and Ferrothorn bring the average down right?
A better indicator would be calculating the average of just the offensive OU Pokemon since Defensive and some Utility mons aren't as reliant on high speed

>>31690953
Adding on to this, gen 6 BL is actually faster than OU, with an average of 103.18. I haven't calculated gen 7, but it's probably not that different.

>>31690953
>because the average is dragged down by defensive mons it's okay for an attacker to have low speed
How is it possible to be this stupid?

I don't see OP saying anything about offensive or defensive mons. And several strong offensive mons in OU have below 100. It's not the end of the world.

GF should just rework speed as a stat

>>31691124
Obviously OP's talking about attackers because outspeeding things only matter for them you dumbass

only if you play shitty tiers like OU and ubers.

>running scarf on this is a legitimate set in OU
Where did it all go so fast?

>>31691603
>most gen 7 pokes are slow
>151 speed
And this quite honestly is disturbing as heck.

>>31691603
It's to outspeed anything that would have otherwise used a scarf to outspeed Phero. It can't afford to take any hit.

>base 100 used to be good for any stat
Poor Flygon.

Mass stats rebalance when? the gap between 500-535 ish to 600 has become too jarring

>not going fast

>>31691738
Never, we'll just keep getting small changes to existing Pokemon once per generation.

"All new limited series"
The fuck does this mean? Thanks for sharing tho, anon

>>31691766
better start giving stuff 20-60+ extra points then because the power creep isn't getting any better

>>31691815
It's only going to be 10 episodes long, but it'll conclude the story finally.

>>31691751
It's like they don't even like chili dogs, shame.

I guess Landorus-Therian must be pretty damn shit at 91, then
Let's see how long we can keep people convinced that Lando-T should be in NU
