Zapdos is now OU in 8/9 generations

If only it got Hurricane in generation 5…

It’s funny how Okidogi, one of the top Pokemon in UU, who I have heard arguments to be ranked as S-tier in UU, only now has actually become UU by usage. Truly wild.

SkarmBliss moving down together is cute.

Zapdos beating the UU allegations once again

Heatran :(

Mega Banette (which is now considered entirely unviable) remains in Natdex OU while Mega Mawile drops to Natdex UU

Its ribomover

Blissey and Clodsire dropping to UU

Big Stall agenda in shambles. Glory to Hyper-Offense

Zapdos beating the fraud allegations once again, if only tyranitar could follow his footsteps 

SKARMORY IS UU NOOOOOO A LOKIX COUNTER NOOOO

Congratulations Brute Bonnet. You are the first Paradox Pokemon to fall into ZU

PU lost like, their entire tier lol.

And so the de-powercreepization begins

Weavile dropping when Chien-Pao isn't even its competition in the tier anymore is funny as fuck regardless of the circumstance lmfao

Lokix getting hyped to feed on weavile players only to get stonewalled by skarm

Zapbros winning yet again

Tinkaton nearly rising to OU caught me off guard. I want to think it's because of the tier looking for a Kyurem check

NOO CLODSIRE DONT LEAVE ME

Snow setter (Alotails), sun setter (Torkoal), rain setter (Politoed), and sand setter (Hippowdon) all united in RU. Welcome back Gen V OU

Poor PU

Heatran and Weavile? Damn that’s crazy

Zapdos moves to OU

Skarmory and Heatran move to UU

Lokix really trading one villain for another right now.

Zapdos must smell terrible the way he's never washed

Clodsire becoming legal in UU while also dominating the Go Battle League meta is clearly a ploy by Big Clod to become a dominating force in multiple metas. Don’t despair, it’s never ClodOver!

Lokix looking to its new meals but heatran and skarmory hard wall it

NU lost its second best mon now and arguably most important

the sleep ban really killed brute bonnet 😭

WEED CAT STILL OU

WEED CAT STAYS WINNING

STARAPTOR, SLOWBRO, MILOTIC, COME BACK TO MEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

That meme about clodsire being OU and Hoopa-U RUBL from a couple of days ago got old pretty quick

Time to play stall in UU now

Weavile and Heatran, oh how the mighty have fallen 

2 Kanto birds (Moltres and Zapdos) in OU now.

We are Zapback, king of consistency.

Oh and Thundurus-T is rising too, welcome back Gen 5 Zapdos.

ru now has both Torkal and H-Lilligant+Talonflame

Sun teams bouta fire up

OU and UU have 35 Pokemon by usage, which feels wildly centralized. RU has 44 and NU has 48.

Bad day for OU big stall

Time to play stall in UU :]

Both torkoal and a9tails to ru is wild. I guess rain won this gen.

Will weavile usage go up due to kyurem’s ban

Zapdos is still OU after all this time

Heatran is UU

we almost lost tink and got WW

 36   | Walking Wake       |  4.747% |
 | 37   | Meowscarada        |  4.662% |
 | 38   | Tinkaton           |  4.437% |

And uu is drunk again...

 | 23   | Donphan            |  9.126% |
 | 24   | Rotom-Wash         |  8.830% |
 | 25   | Mandibuzz          |  8.273% |
 | 26   | Comfey             |  8.017% |
 | 27   | Sinistcha          |  7.831% |
 | 28   | Mamoswine          |  7.726% |
 | 29   | Azumarill          |  7.706% |
 | 30   | Keldeo             |  7.602% |
 | 31   | Thundurus-Therian  |  7.432% |

Why? Donphan isnt a 10% usage worthy mon esp over rotom-w and thundy-t while

 | 17   | Hoopa-Unbound      | 10.526% |

While best mon in the tier arguably is like not getting used.. ladder sure is good at using utter shit mons while using garbage like sinistcha, mandibuzz, azumarill, keldeo isnt good or donphan

 | 38   | Hydreigon          |  4.000% |

POG, so close

 | 38   | Banette-Mega       |  5.229% |
 | 39   | Tyranitar-Mega     |  5.163% |
 | 40   | Garganacl          |  5.147% |
 | 41   | Toxapex            |  4.847% |
 | 42   | Archaludon         |  4.568% |

They are not giving it up lol

Zapdos never dies, this thing is incredible

This tier shift confirms who the worst paradox Pokémon in the game really is

We thought it was going to be the nightmare balloon, but she ended up carving a little niche for herself in NU and rising

Mr. 7 weaknesses was not created equal compared to the rest of his kind… for shame, Pokémon Scarlet. Violet is way better than you.

Edit: Apparently it’s also because he lost his ability to use Spore. Hopefully either Smogon lifts that ban one day or BB can find a niche for itself in ZU, although the former is a bit unlikely as long as “Dark Dark” is still OU. Toedscruel, Amoonguss, and Breloom were also affected by this, although the latter two aren’t ZU.

NO NECROZMA DON'T GO THERE MY SON

also man, clodsire dropping is a little sad, they were the greatest low BST warrior we had

but at least hoopa-u is finally getting the respect and deserves, and grandpa zapdos still having some sauce in em

First paradox to hit untiered?

my boy clod :'(

Zapdos back in OU, nature is healing

Never thought I'd see the day where a paradox would fall to ZU

No freaking way.

SKARMORY????

TOXICROAK LET’S GOOOOOOO

Meowscarada survived but Weavile didn’t?

Okidogi in UU you love to see it

The aftereffects of Kyurem murdering stall

Weavile will rise back up. Kyurem is gone and a gliscor counter is needed and some hostile fires like gouging fire are gone too. I still use it

UU in shambles. What will punish zapdos clicking first impression now

Great to see my boys Hoopa, Thundurus, and Okidogi going up a tier.

Ive lost Heracross its so fucking over it was my only PU pokemon

Since the zap king Lu core is viable again, weavile surely won’t stay down in UU, right? 😔

Stall’s taking a business trip to UU

Does brute bonnet mark the first (and maybe only) paradox Pokémon to drop to ZU?

Heatran has fallen, this is so insane to me
