not bad, because it is dragon/fire it gets neutrality to fairy and gets nice stab against common threads such as ludroth and barioth. Watch out for lagiacrus tho

The whole 'complex bans' thing is the reason Plesioth is staying in Ubers. Thing is, it's only because of Illusionary hitboxes that Hipcheck is broken on him, Swift Swim Plesioth isn't even used in UU

>>18653162

Outclassed by Akantor for the most part who has the same typing but higher physical attack, making it a better mixed attacker, even though Akantor doesn't get Heat Ray

>people thinking Ukanlos could drop to OU
Yes it's Ice/Rock but when it has 720BST and Refrigerate it's pretty hard to wall

How do I make this guy good? He's got really good attack and speed but both of his abilities suck (Snow Cloak and Sheer Force without any good moves for it) and Ice/Fighting gives it a shit ton of weaknesses.

>>18657796
Just use him in UU, he's great there because he's so fast in comparison to everything else and can blow Qurupeco the fuck out before it can use Monster Call. The only way I can see Blagonga being awesome in OU is if he gets Icicle Crash and Cross Chop from move tutors in the inevitable G version.

Come on, Jho's tough and strong, but he's slower than the rest of the tier and he gets buttraped by this guy, who's arguably just as strong. Jesus Christ, Fighting+Electric is a scary STAB combination.

not a day passes without people mentioning smogon minotaur, yeah let's just be another one of those things no one can wall for shit because STAB wild charge coming off 140 base attack and reckless, it's just a good thing it can't really switch in to much either with 65/60 defences

My only gripe with OU right now is how dominant HO is. Every team is Tigrex/Savage Deviljho/Rajang/Terra Shogun/filler/filler, although at least it's not as cancerous as Ubers when Dhisuforoa has been wrecking shit ever since it was released because fuck all can deal with Specs Seraphim Blast
