Jirachi isn't BL because it technically never went into BL, it rose straight to ou at the beginning of beta. but it's getting banned probs tho ;)Jirachi is actually BL and Tornadus is actually BL2 because of bans earlier in the gen. Loving all of these tier changes (except Mantine rip) but WHY WON'T ARCANINE DROP FROM UU AND WHY IS DONPHAN SO USED WHY CAN'T IT DROP!? Sorry, just had to get that out of my system.
Jirachi moved from OU to UU
I forgot one. BLASTIOSE DROP DAMN YOU!Jirachi is actually BL(oops my b) and Tornadus is actually BL2 because of bans earlier in the gen. Loving all of these tier changes (except Mantine rip) but WHY WON'T ARCANINE DROP FROM UU AND WHY IS DONPHAN SO USED WHY CAN'T IT DROP!? Sorry, just had to get that out of my system.
OU by technicality bcuz regular Alakazam is in BL.Shouldnt Mega Alakazam drop from OU? It's at 2.9% while cut-off is 3.4%?
In this case it should fall in BL with its base formOU by technicality bcuz regular Alakazam is in BL.
...out of everything that just dropped to uu, jirachi is the one that damns it for you? rachis really not that bad by uu standards, its fluctuated a bit this gen and the last but it tends to move up via usage, not due to being bannedQuick thoughts on some of these shifts
- Jirachi in UU? Welp, there goes any chance I had of trying this tier. To all the dedicated UU players: Good luck. Here's to this fuckwad getting quick-banned ASAP, along with all the other power-creeped bs
- Well, there is a silver lining to all this. At least UU won't have to worry about Aveil anymore.
Alolan Sandslash and Aurorus possibly rising to UU?- Kingdra has had an insane history this gen. It started out in OU when Pelipper hype was still ripe, then as rain slowly slipped away, it too slipped down all the way to NU, and now that Mega Swampert has revived OU Rain, here it is, back in the home of the Tapus and UBs.
- Machamp moving on it's own from NU to RU without needing a ban. Just another example of the absurd effect of the burn nerf on Guts.
>be RUIf anyone is interested, the tier stats by usage:
RU
Yes it israchis really not that bad by uu standards
Rain is pretty relevant in OU, and Kingdra is one of the main rain abusers this archetype have access, so it actually has senseWait, what metagame shift changed Kingdra from not even good enough for RU to OU viable in the space of 3 months?
Pelipper and Mega Swampert makes rain pretty devestating if you don't have Gastrodon or Ferrothorn and Kingdra is a great Swift Swimmer.Wait, what metagame shift changed Kingdra from not even good enough for RU to OU viable in the space of 3 months?
