You idiots got your balls in a twist over that swagplay thread which will never result in a policy decision. What do you say to a decision which is *happening right now* and will result in Kangaskhan, Gengar and Lucario being banned?

TRC is nobody. No one is seriously considering banning the Pokemon over the mega stones.

I don't see why they need to outright ban the pokemon unless for legitimate reasons. The stones however, yeah fuck they can go.

Q: But Zarel, there are a lot of really cool Pokémon that we want to use in OU, like Latios and Gengar. We don't want to lose them just because GF gave them an overpowered item!

A: Let's address Soul Dew and mega stones separately.

>I think the main reason we won't tier Mega Evolutions separately from their unevolved counterparts is the fact that our tiering system centers around usage statistics. In order to be tiered correctly, we have to go off the usage of the base Pokemon being used in battle.

From the same post:

>Bans are the exception, and as fusx points out, we only ban what is broken in its simplest form. Hence, we ban the Mega Stone if that is in itself causing a Pokemon to be broken.
>The reason we want to ban the Mega Stone rather than the Pokemon as a whole is that we are banning only what is broken (the Mega Stone) and not a combination ban (Mega Stone + Pokemon), or worse, a subset in-battle Pokemon (Mega Evolution).

No one in the thread is suggesting to ban Gengar/Khan/Luke except that one fag at the end.

Hrm. You seem to be right. I somehow read the thread as a whole as far more supportive of the idea given Oglemi shooting down the idea of separate tierings for megas and base forms.
