Escavalier Royale said: Why do you talk about Exca's niche in Ubers when we're talking about OU?



Also Victini recently rose from BL to OU so even if it were to fall below 3.41% usage, it would just go to BL again. It isn't exactly a shitmonw because even with its only average attack, V-Create is a real nuke.



Skarmory should drop? REALLY? Dude, if you even take one look at its usage, you'll quickly see that it belongs on more than just stall. It's among the best physical walls in OU (quite possibly the best) that checks a plethora of dangerous breakers and sweepers like LandoT, Exca, Garchomp without Fire Blast (then again who uses SD Garchomp anymore), Tapu Bulu (although Nature's Madness on AV sets is annoying it wins 1v1 most of the time) and many more. Sure, it faces tons of competition from Celesteela, but it still manages to (barely) top it in usage due to checking a bunch of mons Steela can't or can't as easy.

Garchomp is indeed in an awkward spot atm, however, you should still never underestimate the Megalodon. Tankchomp is a surprisingly good set and even Swords Dance sets see some use now and then on Webs teams. If it ever were to drop UU would kick it straight up to BL probably.



Mimikyu won't drop, boy. Dangerous sweeper that also blanket checks a large portion of the meta? Nope, that won't go UU too soon.



Fini should drop tho, Misty Terrain will likely prevent UU's Scald spam a little which would be nice. Click to expand...

the only victini set you should be using is its z-celebrate set (its not bad, but it isn't good either), its choice and ebelt sets aren't good anymore. yes vcreate is a nuke, but you ignore the downsides that it comes with, such as the drops, and being hella pursuit bait. skarm is really shit lol. what does skarm check that steela and other mons cant? m-pert? lol. all the mons that you named besides exca break skarm. lando has smack down, non rocks sd chomp uses fire blast or z-fire fang, bulu has fightinium/rockium, yes, skarm can phaze those mons out, but its already insanely strapped for moveslots. skarm hasn't seen any usage in any tour setting. if you check the spl usage stats, you will find that skarm hasn't seen ANY use. yes, usage =/= viability, but you know something isn't good when an exclusive stallmon is being replaced by steela on like every stall lol (but then half the stalls in spl are disgusting pyukumuku stall so what can i say). SD chomp is chomp's only viable set lol (tankchomp i guess too). lol chomp on webs. lol at webs as a playstyle. yes, mimikyu an emergency check for ho, but it only has one chance to check, and its so extremely frail and its speed tier isn't the best. lol dangerous sweeper my ass, its hella weak even after a boost, and is forced to use weak ass shadow sneak lol. webs help, but webs is dead lol. arguably the worst mon in ou. fini i think is pretty underexplored. fini gets a bad rap for being the worst tapu, and having a shitton of usage. its a decent blanket check to a lot of threatening mons, and is also a p good stallbreaker.
