Everybody thought it would be Uber since the datamine in November

For once /vp/ was right

post parodying the technician meme

>>33202683
Nigga what? Everyone and their mom said Marshadow was broken day fucking 1. Stop falling for the technician is shit shitposting.

>>33202683
>trusting /vp/ on competitive

You could count the amount of times /vp/ was right on one hand.

>>33202683
but it was an OU staple

"Xurkitree is so OP guys! Why isn't this thing banned yet? Also don't use Celesteela; it's one of the worse UBs"

>>33202745
Uh, thanks for the examples?

>>33202745

How could people eve say that lo. The lassie carries roost and leech seed.

>>33202745
>Celesteela it's one of the worse UBs
I had the same thought when i first saw it, except that i overlooked it's movepool. leech seed fml

>>33202683
>That design
>That dual typing
>That fucking ability
No one thought this would be in ubers

>>33203141
Ugh, I meant OU.

Anyone who knew anything about competitive could have told you that it's one of the most ridiculously overpowered Pokemon ever made. It's not Mega Fug-tier, but it's on the level of the overpowered min-maxed create-a-Pokemon things Smogon used to do. It's just too damn good at what it does.

It might be good in OU but it doesn't come close to threatening the King and Queen of Ubers. They will reign forever (or as long as GF doesn't add another powercreep box legend).

>>33203767
Its the most oppressive 600 BST Pokemon for some time now

>>33202762
>roost
anon...

/vp/ also said Lunala's 4x weaknesses would make it Reshiram-tier garbage and 100% Zygarde wouldn't be good.

>>33202762
not roost

>>33202683
It's a legendary, of course it's Ubers.

>>33202683
I thought we all agreed that the thing was going to be the cutest Uber.
>>33203774
Which 600 BST 'mons are better, besides Deoxys-A?

Also when the fuck is Smogon going to suspect Magearna and the Greninja bros.

>>33203851
Yeah, Smogon should ban Regice because it's a legendary!

Literally no one thought that. You tried

>Which 600 BST 'mons are better, besides Deoxys-A?
Literally just Mega Gengar

Marshadow is ranked slightly higher in Ubers than even Deoxys-A, even though they're in the same viability bracket

It shouldn't be that high. It'll be down to bottom of A- or top of A once new toy syndrome wears off.

>>33202683
>/vp/ assumed would be OU staple
no,

when it first came out I made a thread about it being very solid in OU and eerybody laughed at me saying itll be clearly an uber

Nah, it'll go up. It's right behind Arceus in how good it is in Ubers. The rankings just take a while to adjust.

>>33204509
New toy syndrome wore off, anon. People were waiting to rank Marshadow objectively; it wasn't even up there until just now.

>it's another "VP knows nothing about competitive but here I am and I know everything please give me attention!" thread

>>33202683
/vp/ is mostly karenfags. What would they know about competitive when they rage about stealth rocks?

>>33203885
Hey ban Cosmog while you're at it! As a legendary, that thing is busted!

>>33204598
That depends on what form you're talking about. Arceus-Normal already took a big hit in viability this gen (I'd argue that it's around A-), but Groundceus is amazing and fits on pretty much ever team the way that Arceus-Normal did last gen.

>>33205381
It's been like 3 weeks. That's not enough for a meta to fully stabilize enough to make an accurate ranking that will stand the test of time.

>>33203882
>Also when the fuck is Smogon going to suspect Magearna and the Greninja bros.
The day they suspect Lando

>>33202683
/vp/ unironically thought it had bad defenses so it'd be a good glass cannon at best

>>33202745
also "Charizard is going to remain NUtrash even with the new megas because it's still weak to rocks xDD"

>>33203882

Arena Trap comes first, then Mag

>implying people on /vp/ play the games

>>33202683
only shitposters thought it would be OU since the day it was datamined.

>>33202683
its RU material at best, typical smogon overreaction though. Ban it because it dares threaten their precious lion!

>>33209615
What do you meme? Landorus-T is a great check to Marshadow because it can lower its attack and smash it with a Z-Fly.
