    OKIDOGI NATION Here with another spicy mon I’ve been playing around with. An overlooked legendary dog foreshadowed by the top dog of the tier, Zamazenta, who has been terrorizing OU since it dropped with the ability to pick and choose its checks between options like Roar, Heavy Slam, Stone...

    Is Cloyster the first ever old gen mon to ever receive a ban? (Excluding technicalities like ADV Mr. Mime, Gligar, Cacturne, and DPP Froslass/Glaceon)

    Wait til you see that Custap has been used. It really doesn’t. Tera Ghost might occasionally see use for Body Press mons, but the issue with Tera Ghost and also Steel is it makes Moon vulnerable to more match ups just to win a few. Tera Steel for example loses to the common Ground types of the...

    I do appreciate you posting replays, but I find most of these to be the result of misplays. This is not be calling out these players as frauds or anything, they’re great players I faced once or a couple times. Replay: 1 https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9ou-2102089389?p2 (Good replay...

    To add further into the discussion, I have a couple tour replays that demonstrate the difficulties Roaring Moon has with actually setting up. While scavenging through recent tournament replays, there’s been surprisingly few teams loading up with Roaring Moon, instead they opt Dragonite who imo...

    Moon is a hot topic currently and I want to throw my hat in the ringer. I’ve already made a post about it here months ago but most of what I said is still relevant to my current thoughts. Roaring Moon isn’t an issue imo. It’s relatively one-dimensional about what it sets out to do. There’s DD...

    It’s Glowking if it loses to Kyurem and Raging Bolt, but it doesn’t get OHKOd by Headlong Rush. Otherwise, just run Glowking.

    I’m new to the tier, but in short, Wo-Chien has good matchups into Iron Leaves, Thundurus-T, Psychics, Rain, and Rhyperior while providing utility with Knock.
