Hwo do we fix OU?
>>
It doesn't need fixing. You fags just like to complain.
Lando is fine, Magearna is fine and the Tapus are fine.
>>
>>33049347
Split it into two different tiers.

>>33049370
Are you aware UU exists?

I don't get it. There's always a pokemon/playstyle that completely dominates. Are people complaining just because Lando-T is dominating 2 gens in a row?
>>
>>33049366
Yes it fucking does. The meta is absolute chaos and needs a lot of bans.

First thing to do is remove Dugtrio because it's cancerous horse shit and legit has no counterplay at all. Then Greninja and Magearna and possibly even Lele (if Mage gets banned) need to go.
>>
Reboot the franchise
>>
delete magearna
>>
Ban the entirety of S and A+ rank
>>
>>33049382
Why the fuck does /vp/ keep saying Lele is broken? Nigga just use a steel type lmao.
>>
>>33049933
>banning fucking mew and heatran of all things
/vp/ really is bad at competitive. Why do we constantly have competitive threads?
>>
>>33050066
I like them. They are entertaining.
>>
>>33050066
So people can constantly complain about how they can never manage to reach 1300 elo whilst trying to Karenfag their way through the ladder.
>>
>>33049382
>Banning Duggy
He does the same thing he has been doing since gen3, there's no reason to ban him.
>Muh 100 atk
It barely nets him like 3 new 2HKOs
>Muh Stall
Ban Chansey instead, that faggot blanket check to every special attacker is the main reason Stall can have 4 other slots dedicated to other defensive mons.

whoa it's not like there is like a move that can force the user that can switch out, what was it called again?????? y-turn???
there's also not two types that can easily escape arena trap's clutches, damn....

>>33049347
Why is Zard Y more viable than its X counterpart?
>>
>>33052858
Becuase Zard X loses to Lando-T, Heatran, Toxapex among other things that Zard Y doesn't lose to.
>>
>>33052868
>>33052858
Also because everyone runs fast scarfers with Stone Miss for Volcarona, all of which incidentally check Zard X
>>
>>33052868
Can't Zard X destroy two of those mons with EQ?
>>
make tauros great again
>>
>>33049347
We go back to Gen 4 and start over
>>
>>33052890
Only if it gives up Roost, which makes it longevity shit, or if it gives up Dragon Claw, meaning its walled by opposing Dragons. Zard X has huge 4mss currently.
>>
>>33052858
The existence of Landorus-T alone makes it difficult for X to do anything. Intimidate just completely stops it from sweeping. It also gets walled hard by Heatran if it lacks Earthquake, which it usually has trouble making room for.

ban jirachi

>>33049347
We ban EVERYTHING!
>>
>>33049347
RU is the real metagame now. Everything above is just layers of banlists.
>>
>>33049347
First remove Magearna. Then see what happens and what needs to be banned after that.

But seeing as it took 5 months to ban Pheromosa, that'll be in a year.
>>
>>33049347
Give gengar back levitate and buff weaker mons(including weaker megas like banette) any way possible.
>>33052897
That is not a bad idea either.

seriously just don''t play OU. UU RU and NU is much more fun

Every fucking time.

>>33052858
Zard Y's only weakness really is Kucko and sly pebbles. Sun makes also makes it a special wall and free solar beam
Zard X needs DD to sweep and has a lot more checks
>>
Rename OU EU
Rename UU OU

OU is now good again.

This. All legendaries are cancer. Even Phione and Articuno
>>
>>33056257
Char X is basically DD up and sweep and that got a lot harder with more people bringing Volc counters. There is also fini to stop it, duggy can trap it etc

Zard Y just hits like a truck and then switches out, the latis don't see as much play as before because of the new fairies and Gren so and there are no new counters/checks because nothing wants to switch into sun boosted fire / grass / fighting coverage that could also carry HP Ice

So basically new mons and meta changes hurt X while Y doesn't care at all

I could try to make a similar cherrypicking post but I can't be arsed to do that. Half of the legendaries mentioned in that post aren't even A- rank and every single ordinary mon I mentioned is more meta defining and """broken""" than those.

Nice reading comprehension by the way.
>>
>>33056538
fuck you gaylord
>>
>>33056538
Pelipper usually runs more Sp.Def. these days.
>>
Make an option to filter certain mons on Showdown
>>
>>33056899
This would be interesting only if it also prevented you from using the mons you filter out. Otherwise everybody would ladder to the top using landorus and magearna against teams without landorus and magearna.

It would still be a weirdly problematic feature, in a way. Imagine your team doesn't use volcarona and is built in such a way that the biggest (and pretty much only) threat to it is volcarona. You filter the moth out, and you will only ever play games in which you don't have to worry about it, making your ladder experience easier. Everybody would filter out chansey and dugtrio, too.

>>33049347
Insta-ban any mon that reaches over 25% usage

Just make it so only games with no filter affect your elo.

Mag, Ash-Gren and Lando obviously :^)
