>OU is being dominated by Pseudos, legendaries, UBs, and mega evolutions
So why is OU Ubers-lite?
Has OU ever been good?

So what you're saying is that the second most powerful pokemon go in the second highest tier? Really makes you think

Pseudos sure, fair point, but none of that other shit has a place in what is effectively "A tier through B tier"

You only notice legendaries because GF started giving them actual abilities instead of Pressure

Well that analogy was made with an S-tier in mind but I can see why that wouldn't be easily inferred
Anyway, it just shows how bad the power creep has been since gen 6 if OU went from "reasonably good shit" to "busted shit"

Power creep.

Yes, gen 4 post chomp.

If you're point is to make a new tier between OU and Ubers then I agree.

5th gen OU was great. Weather wars were fun and encouraged deck diversity due to all of the Pokemon that loved permanent weather. You had shitty genies, sure, but it was still much better than the mega cancer and bravest birdspam of gen 6 and the trainwreck that 7 is turning out to be. Gen 4 OU was fun too. The meta game definitely peaked in gen 3 though, even with physical and special still being all fucked up. It feels so long ago now. I miss skarmbliss, tyraniboah, and crocune.

There is no need for a power creep. It is pretty possible to keep all Pokemon at a level, where they all can be used and are usefull. Yes, there are going to be mons that will be better and those that will be worse, but the differences wouldnt be too big.

That's retarded. If a new tier is made this gen it would be FU, below PU.

I've never understood what exactly this is supposed to be. Is it just OU with backlist Ubers like Reshiram?

This pic is SM meta in a nutshell: almost every Pokémon moved one tier down from the tier they were on XY/ORAS meta (Greninja is OU, Serperior is UU, Heliolisk is RU, etc.)

The reason I say this is because there has been this humongous power creep. Why do we have practically all of OU being pushed down to UU that just causes a domino effect through the rest of the tiers when a new one can be made to save us the trouble.

Which part of "It is from late December usage" didn't you read? I don't have an updated pic of SM UU.
