He was Uber for 2 gens faggot. Research harder

Because hes a good special walbreaker blessed with a good movepool(attacking and support), and speed tier? Even M-Scizor is weary of switching into HP Fire. If your not a Fairy type, your going to hate switching into his Dracos. And most fairies get 2HKO'ed by Psyshock anyway. You have zero opportunity cost when using Latios.

No. The guy hasn't received anything significant competitive-wise for three generations now. It's somewhat worse that it gets merch and promo for a non-A-list popular mon but is forgotten by GF/TPCi competitively. Not even asking for OU, at least high UU is fine

Has been in UU since Gen. 5 and still hanging there.

>>32057685
Was OU in the B/W meta.

>>32057656
I was making a statement about being OU. He HAS been OU each gen, which is to say, a top usable option.

The meta favors offense at the moment, with many of the fast threats outright beating Latios like Koko and Gren and Phero and the slow mons being able to threaten it still, like A-Marowak and Tapu Fini and Magearna. The way I've reasoned it, people use it today as a general Fire switch-in that doubles as a Defogger, with offensive presence -- i.e. Heatran, Y, Firium Z Volcarona.

Reuniclus could do with a slight buff, like how other mons have gotten between gens.
BST 490 --> 500
where Def 75 --> 85

That would be pretty critical in helping it wall stuff like Mega Medicham or take hits from physical attackers in general better.
