    Resource SV OU Indigo Disk Viability Ranking Thread

    I think Tusk could get demoted, but only to S-. IMO its ability to spin is still S-Tier utility in practice on non-bootspam teams (which might not be "optimal" per-se but is still is amazing for more experimental builders). Even if its on-paper synergies aren't so great, it practice, I find it...

    Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion v4 [Volcarona Suspect]

    This boots freeze dry set has no power. You are barely 2HKOing physically defensive Corviknight with Ice Beam after Rocks and hits just bounce off of other mons like Clefable, Tera Fairy Garganacl, etc. in addition to struggling vs Zama. Offensive teams have plenty of counterplay between various...

    Announcement np: SV OU Suspect Process, Round 12 - Moth To A Flame

    I will be voting BAN, though this is moreso out of circumstance rather than an explicit desire to. Unlike several other players who have posted here, I generally agree with all the DNB arguements (particularly from Ctann ). As a ladder player, I generally feel that Volcarona doesn't feel...

    Announcement SV OU Suspect Process, Round 12 - Voter Identification Thread

    It took 30 failed attempts before and hundreds of games. I was beginning to feel like Sisyphus. However, through much pain, though much tilt, somehow, I prevailed. I apologize to all those I raged at before. Huge shoutout to AK for I would not have been able to achieve this without his support...

    Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion v4 [Volcarona Suspect]

    Been using Tera Steel CM Latios and despite some shortcomings, I've been liking it quite a bit. Tera Steel levitators are extremely good defensively, esp vs mons like Kyurem, most Great Tusk, and Gliscor. Psychic Noise is a solid disruption tool for most recovery attempts & it can deal decent...

    Aye, as a fellow Meow enjoyer, share with me any tech / cool sets you try out with the mon. The only builds I really enjoy it on are those Ting-Lu / Gking / Corv OR Skarm builds where it is a strong progress maker with Knock Off, U-turn, and Protean Triple Axel vs Gliscor. That being said, it...

    Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion v4 [Volcarona Suspect]

    IMO the metagame will not change much. Pokemon that were already good like Landorus-T, Samurott-H, and Kingambit probably benefit the most since the type of teams those Pokemon are used on tend to get 6-0'd by Volcarona unless using Tera Fire Balloon Kingambit. Some non-Clodsire / Unaware...

    Metagame SV RU Metagame Discussion (April Shifts, see post #191)

    Some first impressions of playing this tier. Not too high up on the ladder so take anything I say with a grain of salt. Jirachi is a fantastic addition to the tier. Not only is a versatile, well-rounded Steel-type that compresses a lot of utility (including U-turn and Rocks) in one slot, it...

    Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion v4 [Volcarona Suspect]

    Yeah, the only mon I'd really vote ban on RN is Ogerpon-W and Tera Blast if that is ever looked at. Every other mon that's in consideration for a test, I'm likely to vote DNB on (except some mons I'm personally biased against like Manaphy and Moon but those aren't gonna get suspected). There...

    Metagame SV OU Metagame Discussion v4 [Volcarona Suspect]

    I'm personally on the fence on Volcarona. It brings a lot of defensive value for sure, but Morning Sun in a Gking metagame can feel rough & using it as an answer for stuff like Kyurem or Ghold also doesn't feel great since that's interrupting its main purpose of being a wincon. The ideal way to...
