From the discussion I've seen he will be in UU at least. He has potential as a Rapid Spinner.

Rarely Used and Never Used. They refer literally to the amount of use they see in competitive battling, but that's a good way to gauge how good they are overall. There's also Over Used and Under Used.

Greninja will definitely have a niche in OU and will definitely never fall below UU. The amount of utility it has is staggering.

I literally one-shotted everyone I faced so far, he's shit bro.

People don't seem to get that Chesnaught is a hard counter to Aegislash, which can't do anything but switch against it and Aegislash will see the most use of the new pokemon. He will be OU for sure, just for that.

And you are outspeeding it with, what, exactly?

It's like saying Starmie or Alakazam are shit because you can OHKO them with a decent amount of attack.

Aegislash is shit and so is Chestnaught
Chestnaught is absolute garbage and won't even see use in NU.
I feel bad for anyone who picked this gen's Serperior

Are you doing battle spot random battles?

Because most of them are shitty trainers.
I've 1shot all of those.

I've fought 1 that I know was protean and was used by someone competent.
It was an unpleasant surprise to say the least.

He can be pretty powerful.

Good bait but I won't fall for that, still, you're doing a good job at making people believe that Gayninja will be useful for anything other than NU. Keep dat troll up, Chespinbro in disguise.

Greninja is UU at best. Better than the other two, though.
