Has any OU Pokémon ever been as dominant and centralizing as Snorlax?
no.
but gen 1 Tauros and smogonlion are probably the closest
No, because it would probably be banned if gen 1 were still relevant today.

If smogon existed during gen 2 times snorlax would definitely get banned
mega mence for the two seconds it was legal
>>32917644
schindler's snorlax was a dark episode how did it get past the censors?

Very true, though Smogon was pretty lax with bans until Gen 4. All Gen 2 players agree Snorlax is centralizing, but most wouldn't want to ban him retroactively
>>32917803
Not even, maybe the closer analogue would be Mega Rayquaza

Snorlax is the king of GSC
>>32917644
no. In fact the only pokemon in any tier that even comes close is primal groudon in ubers

Stale, stally meta

I dare say Gen 7 Mega Metagross, but only because the tapus killed/outclassed what used to threaten it in gen 6.

Landorus

He's a big pokemon
Maybe gen-4 Garchomp, but that's a big maybe. It made most teams look like this
1. Garchomp
2. Counter for your opponent's Garchomp (Skarmory, Mamoswine, etc.)
3. Another Counter for your opponent's Garchomp in case the first one fails
4. something that can kill Garchomp's counters
5. Something that can kill Garchomp's counters
6. Filler pokemon, usually a suicide lead like Azelf or Froslass
>>32917665
Chansey was the Queen of Gen 1 OU tho.
>>32918651
>mamoswine
>counter
learn the differences faggot
>>32918928
>implying /vp/ will ever learn the difference between a check and a counter

Lando isn't centralizing, he's closer to being gen2's Skarmory than Snorlax.
