With Eviolite banned shouldn't the HP nerf be reversed?
HP was never ‘nerfed’. Furthermore, the HP was not buffed even in Gen 7. That’s just how the meta works.
Anyways, I feel like ts right now is pretty underwhelming compared to ts7. Though there are new interesting options in Stonjourner, Arctodragons, Galarian Rapidash, sir Galarian mime etc, Tier Shift was just a better experience in Gen7 due to more Pokemon existing so there’s a lot of options for ‘bad’ mons working here. With the upcoming DLC(s) here’s some mons that could have good potential:
Forgot what tier it was last gen, if this get placed in NU it could be a pretty powerful specs mon (go no damp rock rain) and still be very bulky all around. prob lands in RU but is still not bad. It also quad resists Fishious Rend from Arctovish and Stonjourner won’t try to switch in.
Last gen it was PU and I loved SD z move with priority it just puts in so much work. My speculations are NU this gen but it still has like 145 atk and 145 speed to work with. Losing z moves hurts a lot tho.
Prob NU or PU, also idk if it’s released this month or in fall. Could be a good rocker and a physical sponge, while it also has 140 special defense if its PU.
idk prob similar to regirock but this has a new toy in boots and weakness policy rock polish could be fire as it tanks at least a hit from Stonjourner and stuff
is prob UU we don’t talk about that
idk don’t think there’s much usage here or anywhere
Cool fat mon blessed with boots this gen, prob not good as Stonjourner and Arctozolt exists
It’s strong af and idk how it’s PU last gen, wait i don’t think i seen that much in ts7 but nvm I assume that it would be a great mixed attacker like what Pika does rn and prob replace Raichu too..?
I loved this last gen as it has 175 SpD and Rapid Spin and Recover, and now the last thing it needs is here: boots (again). Excellent special tank and hazards control, and still has like 135 SpA. (don’t judge on these numbers it’s all subject to change depending on their tiers)
idk but boots (again again) helps a lot with Gale Wings, it wasn’t that good last gen
Really strong wallbreakers, though not very fast idk
Strong with 145 Attack and Technician and is blazing fast, I think it would be NU so 135 but still strong like last gen
idk, NU ig and 150 Attack is not bad. also has Mold Breaker and Rocks and Glare, pretty good team support
I don’t think i’ve seen it in ts, Specs Boomburst is strong tho, I think would be NU
Could see some use in Bulk Up Circle Throw, great bulk overall
rip Eviolite but is still really annoying in Regenerator Leech Seed and such.
prob RU so wouldn’t receive much boosts, but a good offensive pivot which does a bunch to common walls like Ferroseed
prob not much use, sets toxic spikes and nice special defense and ok SpA ig
That’s all for this post, just quick thoughts on the upcoming meta shifts, thanks for reading
