Accuary shouldn't be a factor, steel types can't switch into hydropump, low kick, dark pulse etc.

Greninja has the advantage of having ludicrous coverage even with a relatively restricted movepool, it has everything it needs to be able to hit anything that wants to switch in besides blobs. Offense had the hardest time with Greninja because it couldn't switch into it for shit, and it was rather hard to outspeed and kill without a scarfer. Greninja could just pressure you throughout the whole game and it was pretty fucking centralizing.

yes, it does. you are factually incorrect. you can 2HKO ANYTHING due to protean and decent attacking stats
low kick/ice beam/gunk shot/dark pulse or whatever is the set that was most popular when it was banned, and those 4 moves alone raped everything. you could say "j-just use tentacruel!", but then as that happens grenimja users start packing extrasensory. just like hoopa unbound carrying tbolt to not get stopped by mandibuzz. no matter the environment, greninja would ALWAYS beat everything

no, that line of thinking is wrong. battling is not nearly as one dimmensional as you think it is
consider this scenario
>your garchomp just killed something, and greninja comes in
>you can either let garchomp die, or go to your ice resist of, say, azumaril
>but oops! then greninja just kills azumarill the next turn with gunk shot
the risks of using greninja were small, and the rewards were way too high. sure, "x used (priority move)!" could kill it, but that isnt nearly good enough to keep it in check. this is what seperates it from other immensely used mons like labdorus. lando is a fairly straight forward pokemon, and has plenty of counters and checks alike such as skarmory. but you cant counter greninja.

that is not nearly enough to keep it in check, however, because neither of them can switch in without getting fucked by a hydro pump or what have you

The problem is, the only counterplay to Greninja is to basically flip a coin and say "is he gonna donk me or just kill me outright?"
And even if he doesn't donk the switch, he can probably murder whoever you sent in on him because he has free STAB on his coverage moves.

The problem is that the vast majority who voted are idiots compared to the minority who're intelligent. Intelligent people knows that Greninja is not OP, but stupid people think that Greninja is OP. So despite the intelligent people being in the right, they can't do shit because they're the minority unlike the stupid people who're in the majority, and stupid people refuse to change their viewpoint, their votes or their opinions. Suspect testing don't mean shit because it's inherently populated mostly by stupid people. There will always be more stupid people than smart people, that's a way of life.

There isn't only one counterplay. All you need to do is hit very hard very fast. I can do that with a fucking mega heracross with tailwind setup. Pin missile, boom, defeated.

And that's just one example, shit like sticky web, bravest bird, sneaky stones, all of this keeps Greninja in check

You're just a butthurt little faggot who sucks at competitive. I bet you use no fewer than 3 legends on your team too.

what the fuck? you dont. unless you can read your opponents mind, playing each turn making hard reads is agro, and as such risky. theres such a thing in competitive as making "middle plays". i thought youd know about this kind of stuff but apparently not

>>26530038
you missed the point completely, ill spell it out even further.
switching a greninja out from something that could kill it is not "outplaying". switching is literally the sole reason why competitive pokemon is possible. what im saying is, what is your counter measure now that your conk has taken a hydro pump? your greninja "counter" is good as dead now, and allowing greninja to shit on the rest of your team

>>26530054

There's that buzzword.

If you wanna talk over-centralizing, how about Talonflame, Landorus-T, azumarill, ferrothorn, garchomp, latios, thundurus, breloom, scizor, metagross or mega lopunny?
Most OU teams are just random assortments of the above, with the occasional Mew or Starmie

Not to mention Greninja got banned right when oras came out so everyone was trying out its move tutor moves still and the meta didn't get a chance to dial back down

but the very nature of suspect testing is that only people with a high ranking can vote. the very contrary is true - of the more skilled players, a majority of them voted for greninja to be banned

What's with this "Greninja has no counters" meme? Assuming the standard set:
Greninja @ Life Orb
Ability: Protean
EVs: 20 Atk / 236 SpA / 252 Spe
Naive Nature
- Ice Beam
- Dark Pulse
- Gunk Shot
- Low Kick

Here are some counters that are not just forced jokes like AV Skuntank:
>252 HP Tentacruel
A measly 35.3% chance to 3HKO with Dark Pulse after Black Sludge recovery
>252 HP / 252 Def+ Suicune
0% chance to 3HKO with Dark Pulse after Leftovers recovery
>252 HP / 252 SpD+ Swampert
4HKO with Ice Beam after Leftovers recovery
>36 HP / 220 Def / 252+ SpD Alomomola (standard EV spread)
Only a 37% chance to 3HKO with Dark Pulse after Leftovers recovery
>252 HP Klefki
96.7% chance to 4HKO with Ice Beam after Leftovers recovery
>252 HP / 144+ SpD Gastrodon (standard EV spread)
50.5% chance to 3HKO with Ice Beam after Leftovers recovery. Fully specially defensive set obviously walls it even better.
>252 HP / 252+ Def Eviolite Chansey
72.8% chance to 3HKO with Low Kick

It took me like 10 minutes to come up with all these counters to Greninja, so don't act like there aren't any. Besides, all of these Pokemon are OU viable since they have recommended OU sets on their Smogon page, so you can't resort to ">muh shitmon niche counters" this time. And that's the most common offensive Greninja set, but even if it's running Hydro Pump instead of some of the moves above, Tentacruel, Suicune, Alomomola, Gastrodon and Chansey still counter it (Swampert too, to a certain extent).

tl;dr Greninja has multiple counters but Smogon babbys are too lazy to use them so they just ban instead because why not.

That's the most common set that practically everyone was running before the ban because it's the "uncounterable" one. Changing any of the moves means that there are even more counters than just those. For example, dropping Low Kick means that specially defensive Empoleon walls it, while dropping Gunk Shot means that pink blobs shit all over you, and so on. If that set has that many counters, then so do the other sets. Playing the age-old "What if it's running all of its sets at the same time?" doesn't really work here, so you can just stop it.

no it does work, but in ways you dont seem to understand. assuming people start using things like tentacruel to counter greninja, then the greninja users will start using extrasensory to combat that. we saw this very scenario happen as hoopa began to pack tbolt to hit things like mandibuzz, before it was banned. the idea is that a single pokemon molding the whole rest of the meta around it is a bad thing

Correct me if I am wrong, but your point was that people needed to pick one of a few pokemons if they didn't want to lose and by extension, made everyone run basically the same teams.

My counterpoint is that everyone already had counters on their team to avoid being swept, and that some of those common counters also work on Greninja, so it's not like people had to make huge changes to their team to adapt to Greninja.

I love threads like these because they, without fail, prove that anti-Smogon fags have zero argument and no clue how Smogon works.

I don't thing Greninja should be banned but i dont play by smogons rules so it's moot.
>Greninja isn't even particularly fast
uuuh, come on man. 122 is a fantastic speed tier.
>Greninja gets outsped easily unless it has a scarf

If Kecleon had the stats and movepool to back it up, he would have been banned too.

I just always fucked with Greninja with AV Kecleon ingame. Not sure how it fares on Smogon simulator though. Also, I'm pretty sure it is hard walled by Volcanion, Chansey, and literally any bulky water type.

>252 SpA Life Orb Greninja Dark Pulse vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Volcanion: 157-187 (43.1 - 51.3%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Stealth Rock and Leftovers recovery
Nice hard wall.

252 Atk Life Orb Protean Greninja Low Kick (60 BP) vs. 4 HP / 252+ Def Eviolite Chansey: 273-322 (42.5 - 50.1%) -- 93.8% chance to 2HKO after Stealth Rock
Another nice hard wall.

>252 SpA Life Orb Greninja Dark Pulse vs. 252 HP / 24 SpD Mega Slowbro: 338-400 (85.7 - 101.5%) -- 87.5% chance to OHKO after Stealth Rock
Mega because it's bulkier than standard Slowbro.
>252 SpA Life Orb Greninja Dark Pulse vs. 88 HP / 0 SpD Gyarados: 144-172 (40.7 - 48.7%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Stealth Rock and Leftovers recovery
>252 SpA Life Orb Greninja Dark Pulse vs. 0 HP / 0 SpD Manaphy: 144-172 (42.2 - 50.4%) -- 37.1% chance to 2HKO after Stealth Rock and Leftovers recovery
Manaphy can't 2HKO it back.
>252 Atk Life Orb Protean Greninja Low Kick (80 BP) vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Empoleon: 307-361 (82.5 - 97%) -- 25% chance to OHKO after Stealth Rock

None of these bulky waters can do anything back, anyway.
Please refrain from commenting on Smogon bans when you are not familiar with Smogon's format.

Forgot to include Starmie, but that's a given.

The three bulky waters with reliable recovery that don't die to it are Alomomola, Milotic, and Vaporeon, none of which are particularly viable in OU and kill momentum. There's also max SpDef Assault Vest Slowking, but that's a terrible set even in RU.

I literaly swept an entire uber team that included primal groudon, primal kyogre, and mega rayquaza with mine. It OHKO'd the mega rayquaza with an icebeam crit. Its broken af. I'd still ban any priority increasing ability and/or stealth rocks before touching greninja though.

He said AV Volcanion, Chansey, and bulky water types like Alamomola.

lmao, now suggest vaporeon or something.

You're right about AV volcanion though, literal hardwall. Wish it had been around at the time, might have convinced a few people.

42 base speed faster than Hoopa-U, hits a little less hard and gets STAB on everything, literally only Porygon2 can switch in (Empoleon gets bopped by Lowest Kick), every single coverage move it could possibly want + STAB Hidden Power, even Spikes and a signature Water priority move, great mixed movepool and stat allocation.

It would be better off using Gunk Shot. They're both neutral but Gunk bypasses Assault Vest and has a poison chance.

Kecleon actually did get banned from pu because of how strong protean is.

You don't know anything about competitive Pokemon if you don't think that is absurdly high.

...no mention of protean essentially being a mind game trying to figure out what the fuck to attack him with? And the fact he can change types to improve his resistances when needed...or get fucked over by bullet punch for spamming ice beams.
