Smogon "suspect testing" means that one of the big boys on top got his shit pushed in by a fringe-mon and wants to ban it to keep his stale meta going. Try to prove me wrong.

Is that a supposition or a fact? If it is the latter, then you would need to provide evidence to support it.

Do you know why baton pass was banned? Do you know why Lando-T isn't? Or is your logic "lots of people use it so it must be broken, if something gets banned then it's because smogon is protecting their shit". Because that is so wrong

Last gen had Clef, Latios, Thundurus, Charizard X, Altaria, Metagross and probably others I've forgotten. This gen has had Greninja, Magearna, Tapu Lele that haven't been banned and have spent a large time in S rank. So you're talking out of your ass

Anti-smogon fags are newfags who think they're good at the game, get crushed in Showdown, and then complain about it on /vp/ and other sites. Try to prove me wrong.

Of course people who don't play by smogon's meme rules will get crushed at meta after trying to use their strategies & finding out they are all banned, while fighting against someone who already has developed a good strategy compatible with smogon's meta, you're not wrong, you're just retarded.

I agree, they're trying to preserve stall as the best playstyle, the people on top are the same ones making decisions, and the only way to even beat them is with a boring 200 turn mirror match at this point

Do not get me wrong I get why smogon got so popular and useful, but ever since their peak in 5th gen they have been on a slow decline. They do not change up the meta much themselves which is embarassing when Nintendo is doing it for them. They have stupid ways of handling things now and a LOT of Pokemon are missing entries on their oh so godly smogondex. And yet I can go to fucking Global Link look up a pokemon and it tells me where it is used, how much it is used,.what it ussually uses gets countered or checked by and all that shit. Let alone trainer tower and new sites like it that help make sure us nonJapanese fans are updated on the metas. Lets face it Smogon is a dead horse finally getting its last beating. And everyone saying the haters are new to Smogon and shit i have been using it since early 5th gen. I love it for how helpful it has been but how its making the meta more stale for everything but VGC this year/gen whatever.

Yeah, it could take part on insane stragegies like +3 coil/hone claws to max out accuracy and then baton pass it into a sheer cold + horn dirll/fissure + hail lapras equipped with wide/zoom lens and then skill swap butterfree's compound eyes to raise accuracy even more and start spamming OHKO moves

Having been around these guys early on, back in r/s/e days on Netbattle, I can say I honestly like the upper smogon echelon as people. All these rules are for the whiny fags like op who, when given everything they wanted anyways, turn on the hand that feeds. Smogon used to have a lot more regulation, and sanctions like a baton pass ban aren't a new idea at all, and have precedent for being banned in previous generations.
