yes it's a valid format, just because you are too simpleminded to understand doesn't make it bad

So is it safe to assume that GF will make the Water starter terrible in Gen 8? Or will they continue with their fetish towards them?

>>32209921
Well judging from how both the seal and the cat are above Decidueye at something,

It's most likely got to do something with competitive.

>>32209875
I'd put Incineroar even lower in singles.

COMEDY RELIEF OWL


There, you want an anti-Decidueye thread so much, don't you?

>>32210318
>Comedy relief owl

There's no such thing, but there is a comedy relief fag, and his little headcanon.

But I won't be surprised at all if he sees this comment and put a silly scene of rowlet in it. And put a stupid comment below or something.

>>32209875
I heard Decidueye MIGHT drop in RU, is that true ?

>>32210424
Right now it's hard to say. It's bad in UU since it's supposed to be a wallbreaker but it can't break the most common wall (Clefable) and people are suggesting ranking it even lower then B. It probably has enough usage to keep it away from RU, though, kinda like Dhelmise did, so it may not drop soon.

>>32209921
Can we stop making fun of my favorite starter now?

>>32210536
Dhelmise already dropped to RU though. Decidueye's usage in UU is already low, so it could end up dropping too.

>>32209875
So how much will Incineroar jump up once it gets Intimidate (Hidden Ability)? The other two HA are kind of useless, Liquid Voice doesn't even boost.

>>32210542
Well, Dhelmise was worse. Decidueye will probably drop if Clefable stays, though.

>>32210557
itll be good
but not as good as arcanine

>>32209875
Incineroar is LITERALLY only used in doubles because it has Fake Out.

Incineroar has fake viability on its side, so Decidueye is still better than Incineroar in doubles.

>>32210658

>>32210557
I don't think Intimidate will make Incineroar leave RU.

It will be a great pick for VGC tho.

>>32209921
>Murkrow
I get that it has its uses, but being higher than Primarina?
What is this the usage list for?

>>32210771
Just wait for Liquid Voice and Primarina's niche will be way more relevant in vgc

>>32210771
Prankster & Squash, I believe.

Reminder that this is post BP ban for singles, which was by far Decidueyes most effective set

>>32210536
It's bad in UU because of BP ban

>>32211137
>>32211145
Wouldn't it be outclassed hard as a Baton Passer too though? And it's not like Decidueye is good on Battle Spot where BP is allowed.

>>32211154
no, decidueye is a very effective BPer with shackle, roost, and the option of nasty plot or swords dance. possessing defog also lets it clear entry hazards for switch in with it's sp. defense forcing out many special attackers giving it essentially a free turn

>>32211154
what trapper is a better passer?

>>32211160
I doubt it's bulky enough to do all that with the amount of stuff in UU he's weak to both because of bulk and typing
>>32211163
It traps through a move. It's good for momentum, but your opponent is not gonna just get something that can't touch Decidueye be trapped.

>>32210032
I heard water is masuda's favorite type so it always gets special stuff. I'm not sure about this gossip

>>32209875
>Writing Singles in plural and Double in singular
What the FUCK

>>32211174
>something that can't touch Decidueye
But the whole point is to baton pass Decidueye out

>Decidueye boosts stat
>Opponent's X switches in
>Decidueye either Shackles X or Baton Passes to A (X's check/counter), depending on matchup
>If Shackled, opponent can't double switch to Y, A's check/counter
>Y will have to take a boosted attack from A once X can switch out

>>32211306
Decidueye has to be faster than the counter for that to work, yes, which is hardly gonna happen and doable with many other better Baton Passers.

>>32209921

well, it's not, all you have to do to use follow me/wide guard ect. and then eeveeboost for baton pass

>>32211993
ouch

>>32211974
It's most likely used with Baton Pass. Imagine swapping into something great like Garchomp with all that added power

>>32211981
Yeah Game Freak has been pretty obviously biased towards water these 2 gens and even I, as a grassfag, can admit it. Primarina has a good design and stats distribution and while it is nothing compared to Greninja and you may not agree since design preference is in part subjective, it still feels unfair

>>32209921

The niche of being completely helpless against Soundproof mons? Liquid Voice is almost as big a joke as Normalize.

Wow....what huge threats in conpetitive...I'm so scared...And it's not like these mons have any better abilites.....and it's not like Primarina can just use moonblast or any other coverage move on them.....

>>32212184
If Primarina gets Boomburst and Liquid Voice by a freak accident, Soundproof Bastiodon could be a decent check against Primarina.

>>32212133
Is this ironic? I hope so

In other news, Gengar is moving into OU tomorrow. But why tho?

If true, it's also good news for Primarina in UU.

Color me surprised

>>32210536
Clefable and Gengar are moving into OU tomorrow so it may gain some additional useage.

>>32212696
>a lot
I'm curious to see how much it actually is with the next usage stats.
>>32212730
If true, that's actually great for both Decidueye and Primarina.

>>32212758
It's true anon. Both have surpassed the useage threshold for two months in a row.

>>32209875
What the fuck. when did primarina become good?

>>32212796
When UU came out

>>32212804
How? how is she better than the others?

>>32212810
>she

>>32212810
By checking most of the tier and having almost no switch-ins because Fairy/Water is broken and it has amazing coverage on top of 126 attack? Hello? She was better than the others (in singles) from the start. Only flaws are average Phys def and low speed.

>>32210692
Probably some Eviolite shenanigans.

>>32212796
It's awful. It's just good relative to complete shit, like the other two.

>>32212839
How can you consider one of the best UU Pokémon awful when it means it's better than so many of the others, though?
It's awful compared to Mega Fug, It's pretty good in relation to the whole Dex.

>>32212839
Keldeo and Scizor are awful too, I guess.
