I still don't agree with Swellow being UU to be honest.

Swellow is one of the most dangerous UU in the metagame.

most sweeper flying types that don't have a secondary type resisting rock are starting to see less and less play though, due to stealth rock.

just look at charizard




also, wobbuffet is an uber again as of a couple days ago, though i think if there was an equivalent BL/NU tier for Uber, he'd be in that.

It was decided overwhelmingly through a "bold voting" process (voting UBER or OU with a detailed argument) at the end of June 2008 that Wobbuffet belongs in the Uber tier in DP.

I'll update Wobbz later, I still don't consider him Uber, so he stays for now

LOL.


i agree. i also agree with the wobbuffet clause

[xenux]

That made me sad. I have to change my new team again. >_>

[The Mole]

As a note for all, the tiers will be updated soon as there is some discussion going on with regards to the BL/UU tiers.

[dr00dile]

that's good to hear.

there's definitely a few in BL i think should be in UU (and vice-versa).
i want to train a UU team and i keep finding all of my choices in BL lol.

[The Mole]

That's why I said I don't think Swellow should be UU, I think it should be at least BL because with guts, the thing is frightening

[dr00dile]

yeah no doubt. its coverage is weak, but it'll outspeed just about everything even in OU and especially in UU and still pack a good punch.

also i'm not sure if flygon should be in BL.
unless you have fire punch, skarmory and bronzong completely wall it and he doesn't pose a threat to much, especially the other dragons and can't boost any of his stats except crit rate
he gets roost but it's useless. it doesn't help his weaknesses/resistences and his defenses are only average to begin with
i'd almost go so far as to say altaria is better than flygon lol and she's undisputedly UU

[Lopez]

umbreon is one of the most ou pokemon ever lol its like in every team so i cant believe its bl on the list

also i think swellow should be atleast bl because its very strong
