    "Worst Pokémon Ever"

    Category: Use, I guess... This is the Pokemon I despise worse than Luvdisc. I personally don't feel like each Wormadam is worse than Luvdisc competitive-wise, but the thing is they all suck. They ALL suck. What I mean by that is Gamefreak had three chances to make one Pokemon useful and they...

    Gen 5 The OU Viability Ranking thread

    So what's the deal with Politoed being S-rank? I can't find it in the thread Nah, fighting attacks used to destroy Tyranitar, especially special attack fighting moves, but with a mega evolution or assault vest, it can take even a focus blast from the Pokemon that it threatens that would...

    What is "blacklisted"?

    I don't think you get what I'm saying. You can't really predict Gengar's 4-move set, so you'd be more weary coming in on Gengar with Tyranitar, which is almost as bad as my friend over there coming in on Gengar with a Conkeldurr hoping to outspeed it. That was a nice spin on my point though, I...

    I didn't forget, and I also did not forget Assault Vest, though I didn't expect it to have it on. If it uses Crunch, Gengar goes away, lol, whether by switching out or dying, but it exposes the moveset and some of the other Pokemon's roles. Plus it's been noted that T-tar likes eating its...

    I think more research on Regular Gengar should be done. My main concern is how my Gengar guarantees an advantage, in the fact that it's either going to cause havoc before it leaves the field for good, or as my past battles have shown, the presence of Gengar guarantees a decisive faint. I think...

    This is what I mean by an imminent +1 advantage. If Gengar is staying in the battle that long for Conkeldurr, and beats it, that means it did its job, and can probably either be Wish'd by Alomomola, Chansey, etc, or can just come in and do a little more damage, given the leftovers doesn't extend...

    I've already ran through these scenarios and simulations. T-tar does not pursuit trap Gengar easily while Gengar is behind a substitute. When Gengar subs, it's going to expose Tyranitar's moveset. Then most-likely, it's going to go for Dazzling Gleam if it's not scarfed for SE damage, then...

    Also, I need some more context on this quote. I just reminded myself about these lines that need to be elaborated upon that came up during our discussions about Gengar's viability class. What do you judge a special attacker by? Besides base stats, what is it? This is a serious question because...

    If not S-rank, a high A+, but I'll still say S. Still, Gengar get's a +1 advantage on pretty much everything in A+ rank bar Latios, and Latios gets walled by many things Gengar doesn't. I seriously think Gengar is gonna be the first S-rank/suspect who does not obviously sweep or wall, but the...

    Please explain to me how A fire/flying-type with the moves Solarbeam, STAB Flamethrower and Focus Blast has better coverage than a Ghost/Poison-type Pokemon with Levitate and the moves STAB Shadow Ball, STAB Sludge Bomb/Wave and Focus Blast? To refer to Psypokes again, let's compare both in...

    You are talking about nukes. Calling Gengar a Nuke is like calling Alakazam or Magnezone "Nukes". You are talking about circumstances in which Keldeo and ZardY are given boosts with their STABS but haven't even considered the fact that Gengar is not used as a nuke. That fact alone is exactly why...

    Sorry for the lateness. This is a reply to my post claiming Gengar is S-rank. Yes, it is true that Gengar is laughably frail, but he's been laughably frail for 6 generations, and he's also been an OU staple for 6 generations. It's not what Pokemon can do to Gengar, it's what Gengar's presence...

    S-rank. I never seen Gengar as anything above a solid A or high B before, and thought it would be kept this way, but somehow, Gamefreak decided to give this guy a boost. No, I'm not talking about Gengarite, but non-resisted Shadow Ball for Steel Types. It's not for its potential to sweep...

    I joined this forum a long ago, and I've been following some of the things that have been discussed here even before that. That said, I still don't know the proper procedure of bringing up certain topics, such as what Pokemon I feel should be moved a tier. I'm specifically talking about Gengar...
