>>32581309
just because he's the best OU pokemon, it doesn't mean he's OP.

>Dugtrio nearly got banned

>>32581309
I want to do lewd things with Landorus-T.

>>32581331
Dugtrio was only suspected because its trapping ability manages to make both stall and baton pass even more cancerous than they already are. I still think Arena Trap should be banned; even without Duggy stall teams were still having ample success with Diglett and Trapinch as trappers.

>>32581317
Nah, this is the true Landorus theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFUJrg5GAvs

>Tangrowth in A+
Was Tangrowth always this good? I never noticed.

>>32581348
It's fat with regenerator, Zygarde is pretty popular and thousand arrows can be hard to switch in.

>>32581348
Tang is a great blanket check for a lot of the meta right now. Ash-Greninja, Zygarde, Tapu Koko, Keldeo, Garchomp, among others.

So what would happen if it were banned?

Since i didn't see any discussion on this, here are the latest rises/drops

>Zygarde still not S

>>32581309
Daily reminder that Smogon is retarded for not banning this thing.

>>32581381
Physical attackers and Electric types would spike in usage for a while, then new counter would rise and the meta would settle. I doubt any ban would be necessary

>>32581397
found the sub 1200 shitter

>>32581309
lots on smogon seem to agree it's broken this gen, so it's gonna get banned this gen for sure. just have to wait for things like greninja and zygarde to go first.

>>32581421
t. sub 1950 shitter

>>32581421
>criticizing an obviously overrepresented mon is somehow a bad thing

Fuck off Smogon defense force.

What went right?

>>32581430
hey guys look verlisify posted a new video!

>>32581381
The metagame would literally fall apart.

>>32581432
I want Landorus to stick his Rocky Helmet in my boipucci and unleash an Earthquake.

>>32581441
I want Lando to Rock Polish his dick and then Crush my Continental anus

>>32581309
>Zygarde in A+
Jeez I must be really out of the competitive loop...

>>32581437
Propose an actual rebuttal to his post without bringing up the youtuber you don't like.

>>32581446
Toys and arrows was a beautiful mistake

>>32581441
>tfw there was a time when people thought rocky helmet was a scrub item
laughing my ass off in retrospect desu

>>32581466
Even when Ferrothorn and Garchomp were around?

>>32581437
you would know, you're a passive aggressive shit stirrer who is pretending to be better than they are, just like he does.

>>32581492
It didn't really become popular until people found out its an effective countermeasure against Mega Kangz and Talonflame

Now neither Mega Kangz nor the Bravest Birb are part of the meta anymore but the idea stuck

>Ban Megagross
>Ban Pheromosa
>Will probably ban Tapu Lele, Super Greninja Bros and other Megas
>Lando will NEVER even be suspected

This shit is hilarious, there must be someone behind all this blind favoritism Lando-T gets.
People should really get it by now and push for a Lando ban, but 99% of smogonites are a bunch of shit guzzlers so it's never going to happen.

>>32581549

Wow you sure blew me out with your hot arguments, sir fagalot.

>>32581549
Nintendo is paying smogon to keep lando-t OU.

>>32581668
Is Nintendo run by George Soros?

>>32581309
what happened to Lele

>>32581673
It's runned by Clinton.

>>32581549
There has never been a reason to suspect Landorus-T, especially considering the other broken stuff that roam in OU when a new gen starts. However Z-moves made concrete the possibilty of a suspect this time, but it won't happen until the frogs are gone

>>32581676
Celesteela and Magearna are both amazing pokemon in this meta and both wall Lele.

>>32581683
If anything it's the Z-Move mechanic that's going to get banned. Shit is already proven to break a lot of different mons across all tiers, from strong attackers that become literally unwallable to sweepers that get extra setup options. If they ban Lando-T because Z-Moves make it impossible to contain they're going to regret it after realising there's a dozen other Z-Move abusers that need to go as well.

When did Volcarona get that high?

>>32581389
>Tyranitar A-
>a few months ago some people were saying Tyranitar would drop because of Tapu spam
Is it just following Latios?

>>32583303
Magearna, Lati, and Ttar all rose because they were getting cucked by Megagross.
Also because Ttar is one the few ghost resists in the tier.

>>32583292
When people started slapping z-moves on it.

petition to rename S rank LandoruS rank

>>32581309
I like it better than the tapus desu

>>32583292
Z Moves solved it's biggest issue from Gen 6, in that having to run Quiver Dance and Roost left it with only 2 Attacking moves. Now it can run a third move and just hit the Z BUTTON to nuke a wall it use to have to play the DO I ATTACK/ROOST/BUFF game against

Suspect Landorus-T now!!!

>>32583292
it's the best setup sweeper in the tier right now and is a big reason why keldeo is also rising in usage

>>32583901
>now
They gotta suspect both Greninjas and Lele first.

>>32581446
Literally the only thing keeping Ground out of Best Type in the Game discussion is how common Ground immunities are.
Thousand Arrows completely circumvents that.

>>32581309
The fuck? Since when did Tangrowth become OU?

>>32584599
Since Gen 6

>>32581348

Anything with regenerator has a pretty decent shot at OU, and physical ground types took over OU for the last gen or two. He's just filling a niche and as soon as OU gets shaped a little differently, she will fall hard

>>32581446
Thousand Meme Arrows is legitimately the best move in the game.

>>32583292
When people realize that Talonflame was the only thing holding it back last gen.

>>32584599
since it checks really annoying shit

>>32584637

Poor Corsola.

Tang gets a shitton of usage now because it's the best stop to Zygarde while also checking tapu koko, ashninja, keldeo etc

>>32581432
more like PU tier design

>>32584834
>what is Extreme Speed

>>32584637

Bitch it gonna have to change a lot before Tang falls downs. Ground, electric and water is everywhere in OU.

>unironically like Landorus

>>32581668
You need 18+ to post here

>>32584834
there's other moves that would classify as best, thousand arrows is just one of the few top tier moves that show up on something strong but not strong enough to banish it straight to ubers

in terms of actually "best" moves you got stuff like shell smash, geomancy, spore etc.

After all these years I grew to like Landorus.

>>32587442
I can't say I'm a huge fan of the genies but Lando-T was always my favorite design of the Therians.

>>32587442
After all those years being stuck with him I finally developed a strong case of Stockholm syndrome for it. A fucking flying Tiger god that can do any role in the game? That's fucking cool right? Right?

>>32581424
Greninja is literally the best check for Lando. If he gets baked prepare to see Lando usage go up even more

>>32587421
Says the namefag

It's pretty obvious to tell anyone who wants the greninjas banned is a Lando user cause they can't handle having mons that can actually take it down OHKO.

Can't wait for those frogs to be banned and watch his usage go from 50% to even fucking higher

Tell that Slowbro

Havent played smogon shit in a good while

How's UU? Or should I move down to RU...?
Is RU even official?

>>32587746
RU is in beta, and still an absolute shitshow honestly. Play it while that lasts its a laugh

>>32587666
Slowbro can still work in OU it's just Toxapex does its job better.
