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.
>>
>>32917644
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?
>>

>>32917695
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

>>32917644
Gen1 Chancer

>implying that fat lazy fuck was ever good

How new are you dude
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
>>32917910

>>32917931
Nobody even plays GSC any more

Stale, stally meta

>>32917644
I dare say Gen 7 Mega Metagross, but only because the tapus killed/outclassed what used to threaten it in gen 6.

>>32917910
newfag much

What was his best set in Gen 2?

>>32918504
>several different sets with subsets within

Curselax? Drumlax? Cursedrumlax? Mixlax? Fire Blast or Earthquake? Body Slam, Return, Double-Edge?

Landorus

>>32917644
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
>>
>>32918557
>>32917665
>>32918602
Lando isn't centralizing, he's closer to being gen2's Skarmory than Snorlax.
>>
>>32918651
>those good ol' days when an ice type like Mamo or Weavy would destroy any dragon type without support or Protect
>then those days when the two would deter your opponent from using dragons at all despite their abundant usefulness

Starmie was, until recently. The original Rapid Spinner and BoltBeam user.
