Metagross can't break through stall at all, especially if it's Duggy stall. If you want an actual stallbreaker, try Alolan Marowak or Mega Mawile.

There is no purpose. If certain people don't like playing by Smogon's rules, they don't have to. And even then, Anything Goes exists. So, if you wanted to play with friends on Showdown, and they want to use a banned strategy, you have your option. Or, ya know, you can play it on the game itself. Where there are no real restrictions on fights.

Well no shit, there are far more broken Pokemon that have yet to be suspected. The roll-out is slow and the gen is less than half a year old.

But you had to add "current gen" because Mega Sableye's ban disproves your point otherwise.

So what? It still sets a precedent that shows they're not unwilling to ban stall mons. It's still banned if you go and play ORAS OU.

There's no need to ban it at the moment anyway since there are far more pressing matters, e.g. Gross, Lele, Gren.

It's so fucking obvious they're stall oriented. They didn't even fucking ban dugtrio.

"They" meaning the showdown players that got good enough to vote. You know Duggy was only 5 votes away from being banned right? How come you didn't take part in the suspect? Do you not want to end stall?

The point is that instead of crying about big bad smogon not ending stall YOU could have played a part, but instead you just bitch on /vp/ about some shadowy smogon council waging an imaginary war against against anything that's not stall.

So Metagross doesn't beat Stall since every stall team has M-Sableye?

Why is Stall even promoted? It seems very boring and braindead way to win the game.

Well, it does seem so. Seems like every team needs to run something like a Toxapex and that running many stalling elements is promoted with Smogon's banlist.

they're quite quick to ban Hyperoffensive mons, but not Hyperstall mons.

It is. I built a stall-ish team for gen6 RU but mixed things up a bit after my first 70+ turn match. It was still rather defensive but I just suck at building offensive cores.

That was just peer pressure. They actually fixed the votes in the Shadow Tag suspect and the admin or whatever got demoted or something.

Retroactive bans have always been a thing.

Chandelure was banned from gen V UU during gen VI
Sand Veil and Snow Cloak were unbanned on Pokemon that didn't have another ability in gen IV pretty recently
Drought + Chlorophyll and Sand Stream + Sand Rush were banned in gen V OU in addition to the already-existing Drizzle + Swift Swim ban (thereby unbanning Excadrill!) sometime during gen VI

It's not dumb that M-Sableye was banned at the end of ORAS OU's lifecycle, it's important to keep old metas healthy for people who want to go back and play them and tours and shit.

It wasn't rigged.

What happened was a group of dudes (Thunberblunder, I don't know who else) went around and hounded people who voted for NO BAN to change their votes to BAN. You can thank those guys for the initial Aegislash ban, since the vote was just barely what was needed to get it banned.

That was immediately shut down, as they made it so you aren't able to change your vote once it's in.

>>32424566
You didn't read a single word of my post, did you? You just want to complain about Smogon without thinking.

That's not what rigging is, read up on the definition when you get the chance. In this case, a third party was responsible - and all they did was get people to change their mind. Nobody was forced to change their vote, it's not like they had any power over them.

Rigging would have been if someone from Smogon manipulated the vote totals to get Aegislash banned. That didn't happen.

Except it's the North Korean government that is corrupt. Smogon is not corrupt, the leaders of the suspect test had nothing to do with the vote totals. It was an unaffiliated third party that got people to change their votes, NOT anyone in charge of the suspect test - and even then no one was forced to change their votes.

How many times do I have to beat this over your head for you to understand?

Not saying that is rigging, but harassing people to change their votes isn't just "changing" their minds. Like you said, ThunderBlunder and friends hounded the NO BAN people for their opinions. It defeats the entire purpose of a voting system.
