There is no reason to use Donphan in Gen 6, and yet it hangs on in OU despite tons of better Pokemon being in a tier below it.

But he gets worse every gen and gamefreak won't throw him a single fucking bone.

Everything I like gets rendered obsolete. Swampert has taken a beating every gen. They give Blaziken speed boost, and what does swampert get?

Damp.

One can argue that early game pokemon (regional rat/bird, etc.) SHOULD be weak for the main game's sake, but holy shit, there's no excuse for late game pokes to be downright awful. Luvdisc is a perfect example of this. In R/S/E, by the time you've obtained the SEVENTH badge, you can find that shitty frisbee heart and it can barely put up a fight.

I never use legendaries, despite 2 of my favorite 3 Pokemon being legendary. Maybe it's just a result of being a breedfag. I also avoid most commonly used Pokemon any.

When XY OU first started up, the three most popular Pokemon were Talonflame, Aegislash, and Greninja.
Now, who do you know that can check or counter all three of those? Yup, Rotom-W.
Add that to the fact that Rotom-W is incredibly solid and can fill a wide variety of role effectively means that people who need to fill a gap in their team will usually turn to Rotom-W to do it.

It means it can deal with whatever they'd throw out and retaliate with varying degrees of reliability.
A check is something that can repeatedly deal with something in a pinch or in certain situations but not all the time.
A counter is much more reliable in dealing with the threat.

Not quite.

A counter can come in on any (reasonable) set your opponent might be running, and then survive long enough to KO.
A check can do all of that except come in on any attack from your opponent. It can maybe do some, or maybe do none and it has to act as a revenge killer.

A counter is a Pokemon that stops the enemy cold. As in, the enemy can try all they want, but there is no way in hell they will beat you. For example, Rotom-W hard-counters Talonflame by being able to take Talonflame's attacks all day and being able to OHKO with Hydro Pump.

A check is a Pokemon that can beat the opponent, but only under some circumstances. As in, while you'll be able to beat them the first time or two, if you're at low health, are statused, or need boosts to threaten the opponent, chances are they'll win. An example is Cofagrigus being a check to Latios. While Cofagrigus can take Latios' Draco Meteor once at full health, survive, and retaliate with Shadow Ball, Pain Split, or Knock Off, any attempts to take the hit after that will end in failure.

tl;dr: A counter will always stop the opponent. A check will sometimes stop the opponent.

for example, Pranksters with Taunt are good counters to Smeargle beacuse 90% of the time if someone's running a smeargle, they have it with Spore and three entry hazards or boosting moves and baton pass. Priority Taunt absolutely shit is down and forces a switch.
Pranksters like Klefki and Liepard are good checks to mons that like to set up, since they can either keep them from setting up, or take a gamble with a Foul Play set to utilize the opponent boosting but that's riskier in most cases. Klefki in particular is well liked because of relevant typing, acess to a wide variety of priority support moves such as dual screens, Switcheroo, T-Wave, Swagger, and generally being an annoying cunt. Liepard can do the same and can utilize Taunt but has the defenses of wet tissue.

That just means you have some of the worst taste in pokemon ever, not that you're being trendy or anything.

Every fuckin competitve thread, like clockwork, some poor cocksucker pops in to say that Rotom is actually his favorite and it had nothing to do with viability. Are we to just eat this shit up? I'd go far to it's impossible to find Rotom your favorite with 700+ pokemon in existence.

All I can do is desperately hope that you're reminded of some of the better designed pokemon and change your opinion. Scizor, Umbreon, Leavanny come on that thing sucks Sharpedo, Galvantula, Blastoise what the FUCK is wrong with you faggots?

It doesn't always come down to design. Some people pick their favorites based on who ended up their bros in whatever game they're playing.

Yes, you can consider a pokemon your bro even if all you've ever done with it is win online competitive battles because it's OP

All I ask, than, is that they enjoy it's competitive viability. But I can't see how it can be someone's all-around favorite outside of battling.

Suicune is good but only by virtue of being a water type with decent defenses. And even then it was only good in gen 3. How I wish Suicune got Recover.

Raikou is pretty mediocre though. Most electric types that aren't Rotom, Thundurus, and Zapdos seem to be.

Kingdra is not even good outside of the actual pokemon games.
The only its got going for it is its type and swift swim if your using a rain team.

If Bisharp gets a free switch in, he wins against Aegislash, period.

So what Pokemon do good players use? Because Half this thread says anything not OU is for shitty players and the other half say players who only use OU are shit.

Quick question, how much time do you people actually spend playing the game? Do you people even enjoy it anymore, or is it the adrenaline boost from arguing about shitmons and players that keep you going?

i personally like to play against crappy people on showdown, because I love using retarded strategies that won't work in higher levels of play.

it pretty much comes down to wanting to have some fun with it or playing to win. not that they're black or white but if you want to play to actually gain traction in your competitive career it does limit what you should and shouldn't be using.

On the contrary, a really pro player would win using pokemon that are not the best. In fact, it shows how much you suck if you have to resort to the top 6 smogon OU pokemon in order to win

Majority of competitive players use cookie cutter OU teams

The ones at the very top battle each other with EXTREMELY unorthodox strats using UU/RU/NU poke

>not using the best means that you're good
>you're awful if you run the meta and beat other teams just like yours

seriously what the hell guys i thought you were better than this

you want to know why people use mons like talonflame and megaluke and all that other busted stuff? it's because they're the best. this mentality that the top teams aren't original or that you suck if you use the top mons is cancerous.

there's no such thing as originality guys. if one person figures out something's op as hell and uses it on someone else, that someone else will use that mon too, and the cycle continues. originality is almost like a myth, and when someone does come up with something innovative (crocune in adv, tyraniboah) that shit gets used a lot and then people like you go and cry about originality or usage ratings.

guess what? that shit was original at one time and now it's not.

if you want to win why would you handicap yourself with anything less than the best

a lot of competitive players just karen it up, use whatever they want or like
as you go up the ladder the teams become cookie cutter
like every team will be identical
then when you get to the very top of the ladder the teams just get really weird and unique
