>Smogon claims to be a competitive format
>Banning Mega Metagross now because "Apparently a Pokemon with one priority move that is Steel type has no checks or counters"
>90% of people who are good agree that he is a solid pick for OU, but not enough to be banned
REMINDER OF WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE MAWILE AND AEGISLASH "SUSPECT TEST" THAT IS HAPPENING AGAIN WITH MEGAGROSS
>Hundreds of anti-ban votes are either deleted by moderators for being "off-topic" or the person casting their vote had their right to vote revoked for zero reason except for disagreeing with Smogon
>Smogonbabbies STILL claim their format is competitive
My main question is "why?" What do they have to gain from straying away from what they started out as, a singles format that was controlled by the voice of the competitive scene, while now they are literally the "Smogon banning overlords" that people liked to meme about in the past (albeit while they were wrong then, that is what it has become now)
