I think slaking should be in the uber box, with bst of 670

@ Demon Mark:

If it's ability didn't prevent it from attacking two turns in a row, I'd agree. However, as Slaking is currently, its stats are countered by its shitty ability.

Your tier list is outdated, depending on which site you use. According to Smogon, several on your list have been moved or in general are inaccurate. However, tier lisitngs vary from site to site, but some just mystify me. xD

Deoxys-S (OU)
Abomasnow (OU)
Aerodactyl (BL)
Azumarill (BL)
Claydol (UU)
Cradily (UU)
Dugtrio (OU)
Frosslass (UU)
Jumpluff (BL)
Kabutops (UU)
Mamoswine (OU)
Relicanth (UU)
Rhyperior (BL)
Rotom (UU)
Scizor (BL)
Slowbro (BL)
Spiritomb (OU)
Staraptor (BL)
Tangrowth (BL)
Tentacruel (OU)
Toxicroak (UU)
Vaporeon (OU)

Raichu was never discussed for exclusion from UU.
Yes, I'm a member of Smogon (same username). Let me know if you contest any of these, I can provide reasons for these contestions.

Believe or not, this was a quick run-through. Pinsir is noticably absent, but its tier is contested so that's alright unless a Pinsir user comes along. Thanks for providing Gaia some enlightenment! xD

Why on earth is Celebi uber? 600BST means its on par with garchomp, metagross and tyranitar. Except its typing is horrible. x4 weakness to bug, bad STAB and a less than awesome movepool?

Also Cresselia is uber but Blissey isn't?

How is Wobuffet uber? O_o


Chris Teke

Life is not measured by the breaths we take
i doubt that celebii and jirachi should be in the uber teir, they have worse move pools than the big five, with the same BST, they should be in OU. I also doubt that wabufet should be in uber as well, but since most people agree with it, i guess it is alright, but seriously, wabufett can only learn like, 7 different moves. (grr, shadow tag forcing uberness)
But by the moments that take our breaths away.


OMFG Jesus

Zangoose isn't UU ._.

and I don't see Clamperl anywhere but it's UU <.<


Socks Amatsu





Sun Aug 17, 2008 @ 08:57pm


Wobufett is classed as uber due to its mirror coat AND counter moves, if predicted correctly, you can take out any pokemon, providing you're not KO'd in the first hit


Chris Teke





Thu Nov 06, 2008 @ 01:05am


why is garchomp uber? i know that he is uber on smogon, but he doesnt overcentralize our meta game. just need a reason, thats all.


shun me im emo





Sat Nov 15, 2008 @ 03:35am


Steelix UU!! lol awesome i know it is by smogon but it realy should be BL like it is at Regileague.
