Notice something?
>>59549115I dont follow vgc anymore since... i dont know, gen 7. Why is Charizard Y so used now? What did they do to make him viable?
>>59549115Is that... !?
>>59549120I think it just comes down to it being super effective to a lot of the major threats of the current meta.
The thing you're supposed to notice is Gambit and Basc.
>>59549115I absolutely hate Kingambit, Basculegion, and Sneasler
>>59549115Much better than what we used to have
>>59549120Charizard Y has literally always been one of the strongest megas. A weather setter with good stats will always be good. The largest issue it had was getting outclassed by Salamence and there is no Salamence in this meta
>>59549120Kangaskhan got nerfed and Salamence isn’t in the game yet
>One IncinJesus, Champions meta has been hell on the catman
>>59549115Yeah, two Scovillains!
>>59549157>sneaselI'm so based
>>59549168He can join Landorus-T in hell
>>59549161Salamence wouldn't dethrone Zard Y now. Zard's partners are so much better than in 2018 which was the last time it saw real usage.He enables them and they enable him.
>>59549120Game Freak kneecaped or removed everything that was better than it. Those kike literally did what /vp/edo accuses smoggies of doing with Landorus >>59549165>>59549168They broke the ZARD rule and had to be taken out back
yeah comptrannies have shit taste and "competitive" pokémon is garbage
>>59549115>1 toxapex>all 6 of its team were in gen 7 and that's the only team that could be used in that gen with possible moveset changes>sun and moon are 10 years old in 2 and a half months
>Farigiraf?
>>59549157>100% Xerneas usage>96% Groudon usage>93% Smeargal usage>85% Kangaskhan usage>78% Salamence usageGiven its bring 4, honestly looks like the Magikarp guy wasn't that far off. Your 6th pokemon seems irrelevant in this meta.
>>59549161I think Salamence tends to get the same or worse usage than Charizard Y barring like 2019
Why does everyone use the same stupid team?Every game I pick random mons that I think fit my character. Do I win a lot of battles, nope, but at least I have fun.This is torture.
>>59549115the guys with the overly spanish name is using funny pepper
>>59550368Because people here are trying to win money rather than autistically cosplay
>>59550351Yep, 2018 was not a year for Salamence, but 2019 was because Mega Mence and Mega Kang thrived in restricted metas.
>>59549115why that cotton pokemon?
>>59550564Prankster Tailwind
>>59549598farigiraf is a great pokemonghost immunity as a psychic type, armor tail blocking priority, can TR on on a team of faster pokemon if you're opponent tailwinds or if you just happen to be slower in general
>>59549115nope
Basculegion is insane. Would it be more used than Fishious Rend guy if it was in?
>More Basculegions than CharizardsIs Last Respects that good?
>>59551419Adaptability helps. Ghost is really strong though, if it had free base 120 moves distributed widely it would be gen 4-5 dragon-type tier
HIS franchise.
>>59550368Because they spent too much time and money to roll up with a meme team
