I can't really take phrases like this seriously outside of OU.

It hits more like a moped.

From the main post
>There's a fourth Pokemon that was brought up, but because i don't think four suspects at once is a good idea and because that fourth Pokemon is p. controversial, i think it'd be better if it was tested alone if at all.

Smogon really needs to get some more tiers going. The sheer amout of pokémon makes the tiers way to big.
And I'm not taking about gimmicky shit like PU which is basically just an extension of NU. Get some real tiers going, like the area between OU and UU could really need it's own tier. Fuck they have nearly done it already since the huge amount of pokémon in BL is nearly enough to be considered a true tier.

I'd imagine it'd be out of Cress, Moltres or Mega Sceptile tbh since they're the other S-ranks

Dragalge is absolutely nuts with Adaptability
Especially in Doubles

252+ SpA Adaptability Dragalge Draco Meteor vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Abomasnow: 292-344 (76 - 89.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO
252 SpA Life Orb Turboblaze Reshiram Draco Meteor vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Abomasnow: 352-415 (91.6 - 108%) -- 50% chance to OHKO
Vs LO Reshiram
No item boosting it's power
252+ SpA Adaptability Dragalge Sludge Wave vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Abomasnow: 428-504 (111.4 - 131.2%) -- guaranteed OHKO
252 SpA Mega Gengar Sludge Wave vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Abomasnow: 438-516 (114 - 134.3%) -- guaranteed OHKO
252+ SpA Life Orb Sheer Force Nidoqueen Sludge Wave vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Abomasnow: 463-546 (120.5 - 142.1%) -- guaranteed OHKO

Again, with no item boosting it
With a life orb of it's own, it overpowers all those things.

Hardly the best thing to test against if you want to say that this mon hits hard

Just an example. It's not like using another Pokemon will make LO Reshiram hit harder than it.

Daily reminder that tiers are bigger than the 50 or so pokemon banned from the lower tier due to usage.

Its more of a guide for new players to show how viable certain pokemon are in a tier, like Hitmonchan is awful in the tier and it shows you pangoro and hitmonlee are better alternatives. I see no issue with it.

It's always based on how much the pokemon is used.
It's normal that every tier is dominated by certain pokemon.

maybe we should split the tiers down further into ranks too, so that tiers arent over-centralized by the dominant pokemons

No it's not. The tiers are based on usage, but the rankings inside the tiers are based on their viability.
