Is he good in NU?
>>
>>32615782
No and he won't even be good in PU.
The reason? The loss in speed. What happens once intimidate comes around? Nothing. Unless they decide to put the shitty 20 from special attack back in speed, then it might be usable in low RU.

Not until Intimidate
>>
>>32615950
Intimidate won't do shit. At MOST Incineroar might see 5% extra usage in PU. Incineroar will still be low tier PU with Intimidate.
>>
>>32615931

>loss in speed
Ah yes, remember those PU shitmons Chansey, Mega Sab, and Ferrothorn. And who could forget A-Muk, Pelipper, and Tyranitar?
>>
>>32615931
I keep reading this but I can't tell if you're trolling or serious. Incineroar is bad, but is it that bad? It seems to be better than most of the other Fire Starters in NU, at least.
>>
>>32615990
and what about Mega Heracross? Such fucking garbage, too bad it was stuck in OU by its base.
>>
>>32615963
Arcanine does this leagues better you Barafag.
>>32615990
Chansey has eviolite, Mega Sab has a great ability, Ferrothorn has way better defenses and ways to set up, A-Muk has a godly typing and stab Knock Off, Pelipper has Drizzle and U-turn to set up and Tyranitar not only has a mega that will soon be released but is a fucking bulky monster with Sand Stream. What does Incineroar have of this? Nothing. Absolutely nothing.
>>
>>32616018
Arcanine is not NU or PU, though. It's irrelevant to this thread.

Aaaand we bring starterwars into it.
The argument that Arcanine is a better fire type Intimidate user is fine, sure. But Incineroar's niche would be that it has slow U-turn, helping for teams that need frail sweepers.
>>
>>32615990

Those are all defensive or tank mons. If you're going to be slow, you need to take hits, which Incineroar can't with its typing and mediocre defences

Fact: Even with Intimidate, Incineshit wouldn't be NU.
>>
>>32616070
Don't even act like Decidueye is in UU because he's good, because he isn't. He was memed in there by owlfags that didn't want to accept the fact that their owl was shit so you all started using him so much to the point he actually ended up in a decently high tier, since owlfags are the only ones who don't know that the tier placement is based on usage and not how useful they are in battle.

And stop deluding yourself into thinking its going to get an ash form because it fucking isn't. You'll be lucky if your comedy relief owl evolves into Dartrix by the end of the series.

>Objectively wrong.
Arcanine has 90/80/80 vs Incineroar's 95/90/90, and Dark gives 1 immunity and 2 resists, in exchange for 1 weakness and losing out on some resists.
>>when Incineroar is immune to Prankster
>Prankster is useless, nobody gives a shit about Prankster.
Yeah, because who gives a fuck about getting dicked by Sab, Whimsicott, or Klefki, right? Who cares about priority Twave, Hazards, Encore, etc.?
>>when Incineroar beats A-Wak, one of Arcanine's best counters, 1v1
>Who gives a fuck.
In doubles, the place Incineroar will do best, it beats one of the most used mons 1v1, whereas Arcanine doesn't.
The only thing keeping Intimidate Incineroar from being just a better Arcanine is that Arcanine has more speed, more SpA, and 5 gens of tutors/tms in its movepool.

So is it just the one Decidueye faggot who does this shit? Most Decidueye fans I see are ok guys but it's always this one faggot who makes the same 4 arguments who starts shit.
>>
>>32616250
He does it for Decidueye too. He literally does it for all three of the starters, with the same arguments everytime.
>>
>>32615782
I think Decidueye will join him soon. Its already confirmed that its only where its at because of the hyped favoritism, now its dropping because its also bad.
>>
>>32616204
Well, OP need to make sure that Incineroarfags learn that Incineroar is simply competitively bad. Since it's known to everyone that all incineroarfags are horny barafags, that picture, as disgusting as it is, helps get their attention so that they can get educated.

I don't give a shit, remember that venosaur along with charizard and blastoise were fucking bad until gen 6, I will wait for fixes in moves , items and boosts, for sure he will be at least UU when we get trick room or anti low speed gimmick
>>
>>32616380

or maybe even OU if there won't be counter for that, he literally have better stats than OU greninja [but shitty speed] I want more skill swap users :(
>>
>>32616410

the major fucking problem with him is the fact that he's fire/dark with means it dies from;

tapus
garchomp
water types
earth and rock types
fighting types

which means that from basically whole current meta, it's pointless

ground type
>>
>>32616479
Fire resists Fairy.
>>
I wish we could unite to fight for the common cause of both Decidueye and Incineroar having unnecessarily high special attack and low speed. The special attack problem is worse for Decidueye, and the speed problem is worse for Incineroar, but that doesn't matter because we need to help each other tell the devs that they're fucking brainbitched retards.

Decidueye is B- rank in UU right now. If it did not deseve to be UU, it'd be D-rank

>but that group of experienced uu players doing the ranking are all just crazy owlcucks and sealtrannies! My horribly designed gay furry cat is being oppressed!

I'd like to add on that Arcanine, which outclasses Incineroar in nearly every way, is C+ in UU right now. Maybe if Incineroar gets it's hidden ability, knock off, sucker punch and the elemental punches it'll be usable in RU.

>Primarina is the most popular final form, just ahead of Decidueye, with Incineroar being far behind them, possibly being the least popular final starter form of all time
>Primarina is the most competitively viable of the three, even having a niche in OU, with Decidueye being decent in UU and Incineroar not even being listed in the RU viability rankings.

How embarrassing. A part of me feels bad for you barafags. Your favorite balloon muscle yaoi hands fapbait is unpopular and unviable. I know you'll mutter to yourselves "b-but I don't care if its viable I only use muh bros" as you cry, tacking Incineroar onto a copypaste team in any of the currently available tiers, where it is outclassed by a multitude of both more viable and better designed fire types, dark types, and pivots. After losing what was essentially a 5 on 6 battle, you close showdown, and masturbate to Incineroar in refresh for the 7th time today, because you have low standards for porn and thats all it's good for.
>>
>>32616617
Wow, they're never gonna recover from that one.
I mean they already had a fair share of burns that scarred them but this... this is the nail in the confffin. They have no arguments anymore. Baras are just dead. Gone. Forever. Finally the time for Ash-Decidueye has come.

we are laughing from comedy relief school shooter but there's something called "limits" we really don't give a shit

>Baton Pass
It's not as easy to deal with as it sounds. Before there was the Baton Pass Clause, you would pretty much get an automatic lose in Gen 5 and early Gen 6 when you had to fight full baton pass teams. Speed Boost+Espeon+Taunter made hard to deal with, even with the right sets. After the first Clause, it was still powerful, but not as much. What made it broken was the speedpede who forced non-stall teams to run Quag, Clef, or Toxapex.
>Sleep
Sleep Clause prevents the opponent from putting all your Pokemon to sleep if you already had one Pokemon put to sleep by your opponent. This and the Gen 1 Freeze Clause are the only faithless aspects of Smogon, but are there for good reason. Anyone that looks at competitive without bias can tell you how broken making your entire opponent's team unable to move without rare abilities on shit Pokemon.

Sauce on that one? It's likely they're discussing this in conjunction with Shadow Tag. Maybe actually read their reasons instead of crying about broken things being banned?

Here's how it went, I was using my Rotom-Wash at the time and he switched in his Decidueye. I volt switched the fuck out and brought in Volcarona... he just straight up refused to switch. He tried to sucker punch Volcarona on the first two turns while I set up two dances. He got the third sucker punch off, but I one shot the Decidueye with fire blast, then his Toxapex with Shattered Psyche, then just proceeded to turn his team to dust due to me taking out the big threat to my bug.
