I just saw that both Meloetta (both Formes) is also NU now, so that's another 600 BST one to keep Necrozma company

what's cute is that Mew, Deoxys and Necrozma are like triplets in terms of 600 BST and mono-Psychic typing, but the first is UU, the second is Uber and the third is NU

Typing, movepool, and ability are collectively about twenty times more important than stats which is why Breloom and Kyurem B are in the same tier

Even within the realm of stats, distribution matters way more than total. Attack stats of 140 and 40 is a million times better than 100 and 100.

Straight White Shark posted:Even within the realm of stats, distribution matters way more than total. Attack stats of 140 and 40 is a million times better than 100 and 100. Yeah and even then stats kind of scale differently, where straight 100s in attack / special attack / speed makes you below average at all 3 but straight 100s in hp / defense / special defense is actually incredible. But then you still have to actually wall something useful, which makes weird situations where like alolan muk is ranked higher in viability in ubers than in its own tier because having Mega Gengar and Mewtwo around make its niche of pursuit trapping special attackers without being weak to any common coverage moves actually relevant enough for it to be worth using, even though it's going to be useless the other 95% of the time. Also for a couple gens Alomomola was equally as viable in like all four tiers lol I am Reverend fucked around with this message at 23:02 on May 24, 2017 |

I heard that one of the reasons Necrozma is in NU is because how good Necrozma is doesn't really change with tier at all. Also Pokeaim recorded a Balanced Hackmons video and discovered that there's no Sleep Clause you so you can actually just use Prankster Spore on whatever you want. The format is very badly named, and also very dumb. Naturally a lot of people chimed in with comments saying the team he was playing with was complete garbage made with no care towards the top threats of BH at all, because a lot of people sure seem to care about this format where Contrary Choice Band V-Create Primal Groudon and Sheer Force Life Orb Mega Mewtwo Y are just perfectly normal parts of the metagame and Imposter Eviolite Chansey is the "safety valve" that keeps the format in check.

Diet Poison posted:Non-Wonder Trading with strangers is loving painful when you can't tell each other what you're looking for. This. So difficult. It's why I never both with anything besides wonder trade / GTS. Being able to say "Hey, do you have X to trade?" would be so wonderful, but I get that Nintendo might be nervous about putting chat with stranger capabilities in a game that is marketed towards minors. Even having pictograms or something where you could throw up a photo of a 'mon with a ? beside it to hint that you'd looking for it, and a thumbs up / thumbs down button. Oh well.

Can we talk about Magikarp Jump here? Because it's a great way to kill time and Magikarp. I've murdered three! Free app is free, or you can pay money for extras. But why would you pay money to murder fish?

The first Magikarp that got blown up surprised the hell out of me, up to that point there's no warning you can accidentally kill your Pokémon. It's a stupid and shallow and repetitive game and I've still trained up 9 of the little bastards with no sign of slowing. Long live Magikrap IX! I'm still waiting to see whether someone else figures out what decorations and/or assists are worth buying, stockpiling diamonds until the Internet does my work for me.
