>The RU Council has decided to test Linoone.

>With the rising trend in Screens teams on the ladder and tournament play, Linoone has emerged as the predominant force on those teams. With its ability to get to +6 in a single turn coupled with numerous coverage options and STAB Extreme Speed, Linoone has become the most threatening sweeper in the tier. With the ability to activate 50% pinch berries after setup, Linoone is capable of taking turns off of most Choice Scarf users in the tier and various staple Pokemon such as Florges. Under Screens, Linoone is capable of setting up on nearly every offensive threat lacking a strong Fighting move, making it difficult for many teams to subdue, thus warranting a suspect.

Never thought I'd see the day an early game shitmon is suspect tested in any tier
