Whos getting to OU?
>OUnot a thing anymore with Champions. Smogon is dead.
>>59400198champions will never replace free showdown
>>59399941It's better to have Eevee evolutions of every type than an excessive number of useless legendaries.
>>59401052you do realize they have padded the dex with ultra beasts and paradox pokemon right?
>>59401042champions is free
>>59401074They aren't legendaries.
>>59401076>Console exclusive>Pay to win or grind time/matches to get pokemon>15 minute long battles with snail-paced animations>arbitrary dex of pokemon>doubles VGC only, singles is garbage 1995 cup rulesMassively inferior to showdown in every way.
>>59401083They literally have higher base stats than the Regis
>>59401092It's not the stats that are the problem.
>>59401052Based
>>59399941Regiflex disturbs me.
>>59399941Regiflex, Regiaer, and Regirapids are all getting quick banned.
>>59401230but why?
>>59399941Regifairy mogs everyone here.
>>59401230Scarf and Banded Flex are both insane hitters. If not, then you can pull off a Fillet Away and it could also steamroll a team. Whether it has coverage or not, the usual Regiissue is another question. But Knock Off and CC would be servicable enough. Good good if it has Mach Punch with 200 ATK. Bulk Up is also servicable. One Fairy coverage move and it is annoying or outright impossible to switch into unless you want to take a huge dent.Aer with 150 Speed and Aerilate Boomburst is insane. It doesn't matter if it has only 80 SpATK. Essentially it could spam a base 168 power move pretty easily. Huge 150 HP makes it at least tank neutral hits. Slap a Specs on it and just click Boomburst. Rapids also has 150 Speed and if that wasn't enough Water Bubble. More ATK and SpATK than Araquanid and Araquanid already hits hard enough. Have fun with Surging Strikes having 50 base power per hit.
>>59401052I'd rather have useless legendaries of every type than more of the most bland and empty shillmon for npcs to clap their feet at
Regiaer and Regirapids are going straight to Ubers, maybe Flex too. Psy and Fairy are 100% ou meterial, or UUBL at worst. I can potentially see Hive and Lava being OU proper if they get the right moves, and the rest are somewhere below.
>>59401086>console exclusive.Its on phones now too, you can practically run it on your pc with an emulator.besides, id rather my pokemon battles look good than cheap outline sprites
>>59401052having eighteen legendaries with a similar design sticks out a bit awkwardly, besides, their designs aren't as marketable as eevee line
>>59401926>look goodNigga this shit looks worse than battle revolution. Its barely more effort than the fucking showdown sprites.
>>59401973battle revolution still looks better than showdown
>>59402007Yeah but we don't have a battle revolution for anything past Gen 4. So if I'm gonna play something with shitty animations, i'm gonna play showdown because it doesn't require a grind to get certain mon, is quick, easy, and has an actual singles format.
>>59402307>236x305
>>59400198Champions is cringe and doesn't let me play ADV OU.Smogon lets me play a competitive game that doesn't get its meta raped by whichever gimick the pull off their arse to sell more pikachu plushies
>>59399941Regis are just not good designs.
