Its good to voice your opinion. But i do disagree with you on the whole event pokemon thing, as well as the guessing of what should be uber. E.g. not using garchomp or salamence. Not playing with events now, could see us not touching them for literally years to come. Considering people who play competetivly tend to not get pokemon legitimately when using wi-fi, and can use anything on battle sims, there's not much point waiting for the head up from nintendo. In game events are more for novelty.
@AVB202 Completelly respected. Even if old ubers aren't considered as much powerful anymore, the way people think irritates me. "There are more powerful things now, there's no reason not to use them." or "There are no tiers yet on this generation". I've even heard someone say they think Reshiram should be OU, and it clearly has the stats of an Uber. Now, for events, I doubt it'll take them years to send in the last 3. People can use them at will, just not against me. It's my fair way of thinking
@JonazAsdf Smogon's policy agrees with you. If you can't get it legitimately, you can't use it. End of story. (Arceus has to be used with no more than 100 evs in a stat due to the lvl 100 event.)
Using ilegal movesets is one thing but using meloia, kerudio and genosect are another. One day they're going to be obtainable so I see no problem in antecipating it.
@azaefe That's fine, I'll respect your opinion. But I stick with my own way of thinking and leave them to be tested when there's an actual legit way to access them.
@Axemninja People don't care if the egg move combinations are legit, they don't look it up. Most times, they'll end up having pokemon with illegal moves put in together on the same set.
Hey dude SR + Spikes is legit on Nattorei any combination of these moves Spikes/SR/Leech Seed that consists of ONLY 2 of these moves are legal. Spikes SR Spikes Leech Seed SR Leech Seed. Torterra gives SR Leech Seed. Cacturne gives Leech Seed Spikes and the Hermit crab gives SR Spikes.
@MegaFreze That sort of information regarding the 5th gen pokes wasn't available back at the time. We only knew about older generation parents. I give you credit though, you went and looked it up decently, so thank you.
@mUdQuAza Just because you think differently doesn't mean I don't have the right to have my own opinion. You already knew what I think, I don't know why you bothered commenting this.
I agree with most of your opinions. The player imagination has too much drive in the metagame, though I disagree in that all Pokemon should be used, simply for the sake of experimentation, and most dream world abilities are fixes or alternatives to pokemon who were previously vastly underpowered in some regards. Though, it does bother me as well that people use illegal movepools without bothering to check if the two egg moves can come from the same parent.
I think that most of the gen 4 users should be allowed until smogon says anything else, as there is gen 5 pokémon that got about the same movepool and better stats (for example, ononkuso > garchomp and sazandora >< mence). Based on these new pokémon I also expect the level of OU pokémon to raise. I do agree that they were banned for a reason, but as long as stronger pokémon isn't banned because they are newer, it would be unfair to not allowed them for the time being.
@WarLordFTW I only disagree with you on the Ononokusu being superior to Garchomp, but sure, I guess they can be allowed in, just not the way people put it. "There's no metagame, let's use the older gen ubers". Clearly Reshiram and Zekrom have uber stats, but in that way of thinking, they'd be allowed as well because they have no tier yet.
It's funny how when people argue about something going Uber, they don't realise that the Ubers tier is a BANLIST. You can play it, but just because a Pokemon isn't good enough in Ubers, but too good in OU, why do people's minds go straight to "It's going to suck in Ubers.". Don't get me wrong, I am not saying that Ubers is not a tier that you shouldn't play, but it's merely a banlist for the OU tier, just like what BL is to UU. A Pokemon doesn't need to be as good as Arceus to be Uber.
when you said "my opinions" i thought "oh gawd....." but it was good you done your research, ive watched loads of battles too. but i dont know whats aloud and whats not and stuff.
i think ppl using dream world abilities is taking the piss.
they probably dont even know how to get them legit.
2 things bout this rant. 1) all pokemon are useable to find the teirs, cause you cant find out who goes where anyother way. 2) dream world abilities and event mons are again legal, everyone is trying to findout what works and what doesnt so bitching bout a game that just came out actually has no rules or anything just yet. im not saying spam pokes to win in says use everything there is to use to get the best idea of how things work.
People use them to get aquainted to their skill. The early metagame is a testing process. Dont get upset for people using different pokes, without it the tier system would suck dick.
@TheChrisDahl I don't mind people using something if they actually justify the use. But these are Youtubers, they're not gonna be related to Smogon or any other place that actually bothers to build the tier system. They're just throwing up excuses to "test" everything. I'm fine with people using DW abilities against me, but I won't allow those events. That'll never happen.
@bobug816 If you're talking about Ononokusu, with the base 147 Attack and 97 Speed, it has a horrible movepool and can't get past certain walls in OU, so it won't be prominent at all. Sazandora is way better compared to it.
Useless opinions are useless. Unless these pokemon are as good as Arceus, which they aren't in the slightest, they won't be banned for being unobtainable. Genosect is really overrated in my mind, it's still pretty easy to beat. People will use these Gen 5 pokes how they want, you can't expect so much of people as for them to know that certain move combinations are illegal and not use them. And most people are still banning previous generation ubers anyways.
@Dublinnaser1 It's funny because Arceus is considered too good even for Ubers. And I also like how you completelly ignored the fact that this is an opinion ONLY, you limited yourself to not even respect them and overthrow me with your own. So, next time, if you want to counter opinion something, start off by accepting what other people have to say, and then have your fill. People lack the decency and the knowledge to use everything, but they still do it. So, in my book, it'll always be wrong.
@JonazAsdf I understand you have an opinion, but like I said, it's useless and it only starts flame wars like shown. And I believe I pointed it out that Arceus is too good for Ubers. I said that the other ones won't get banned because they aren't too good like Arceus to be banned for that reason. By the way, Arceus gets countered by Dialga if it runs Overheat or by Forretress if it runs EQ on the SD set. I'm sure other sets have counters too.
@addictingaster It's the fact of them saving that makes them create the excuse "I can sav everything, so why not the event pokemon?" and it all comes down to twisting things to their own advantage. I just find it wrong.
@addictingaster You totally missed the point. I said UNOBTAINABLE events. I even gave the example of Victini, the event is already out but nobody uses it. Why ? Because they think "it sucks".
@MrDizzySpinda I have nothing against Dream World abilities. It's the question of legal usage that arises. Just like event pokes are being used even though they can't be obtained yet. They shouldn't be used, but people are just selfish.
@MrDizzySpinda I agree with those terms and people are allowed to think as they please. But I'll keep my way of thinking and test them only when there's a legit access to them.
@MercyOwns I know they're still sorting it out. What irritates me is that people selfishly use whatever they feel like it because they "can". I think everyone should have a little more decency and try to be as fair as possible...but whatever.
@JonazAsdf just deal with it until the tiers are set up or just stop playing 5 gen until the tiers are up. no matter what u say ppl are gonna say "oh there is no rule about that" i dont know how old you are but in life nothing is fair, deal with it ur only one person and ur not changing the minds of ppl
@gameover233 Get over with the fact that this is just an opinion about the game. I don't intend to change anyone's mind, I want them to respect my own ideas about it, just like I respect them using dream world abilities. I'll just ban the event restricted pokemon.
