Why?

When did Lele die? I don't think I've seen a single one on stream since yesterday

Pokemon isn't fun to watch.

Just a hard fact lad.

I haven't been keeping track of the VGC meta for a while, so someone give me an update.

Why did Lele, Oranguru, and Torkoal drop in popularity?
Why are Snorlax and Arcanine hip now?

>>32907378
>Arcanine
>now

>>32907514
It sure wasn't as popular at the start of VGC17 as it is now.

>>32907378
Arcanine was good since day 1, best Intimidate user, does everything
Snorlax sets up Curse/Drum and never dies with recycling 50% berries
Torkoal is still good, Oranguru too but P2 is just too reliable of a TR user

>201 HP Garchomp
thicc

I almost swear I've seen that interviewer in porn before...

>match decided by speed tie

>>32908191
Nothing that's gotten too popular, the meta has stagnated

I haven't really brought myself to care about VGC since the 2014 season ended (which was great). Is this time any less of a shitshow than the previous ones?

>>32906837
Next time check the catalog, if you even know what it is

>all pokemon move a turn
>commentators discuss precious turn for 2 minutes while players decide their next move
yeah, i'll watch the championship on youtube when this is over. maybe some other interesting battles.

>>32908397
Judging from your post, probably not. There is no memerisu this time around.

>>32908418
VGC14 had more going for it than that.

Is there anything as cancerous as genies 2015 and primals 2016?

>>32908465
that depends on what you consider cancerous, Tapus are everywhere but they aren't anti-fun like Prankster Thundurus, or overpowered like pre-nerf Kangaskhan

>>32908465
Tapus 2017

>>32908465
Yeah, a lot more like MegaMom up until worlds, Garchomp and Talonflame.

I really wish you 14 memers would stop pretending to know what you're talking about. It was by far one of the worst and most boring formats for 3/4 of the season, but nobody gives a shit because of the stupid squirrel.

>Persian
>Acid Spray Nihilego
ayy I'm going for this guy

>>32908531
All of gen 6 VGC was a dumpster fire.

>having two streams open side-by-side
>four Tapu Koko on the field
Nice.

What kind of idiot at GF had the idea to increase Mago/Iapapa etc. berries to 50% healing and giving players five of those to choose from? So many Recycles from this Snorlax.

>>32908674
m-me... s-sorry m8

>>32908531
Idk, maybe it's just me, but this current one has felt like the most boring format I can remember. Stopped playing in like March because it just felt too monotonous.

Are they really both using girl avatars? Lol

>He isn't using a girl
Gay

>>32908807
Only watched worlds before

Why did that one guy have a Petlil?

>>32909002
it was actually a pelipper

What are the viable counters to Snorlax? I find the games with Snorlax incredibly boring.

>>32909033
toxic

or fightium z pheromosa

>>32909033
Kartana, Taunt, Z moves, stat boosting

when is top cut?
