>Psychic Terrain allows multiple insanely fast threats such as Snorlax, Rhyperior, and Shell Smash Cloyster to be immune to priority, which is a key element in stopping them from flattening the metagame with their already great sweeping potenial. The council believes that removing one of the best elements to checking these monsters via terrain is unhealthy, and pushes most offensive pokemon over the edge.
They literally give an explanation.

Snorlax is fast? Rhyperior is fast? Well, shell smash Cloyster is fast, yes... but geez I had no idea Snorlax and Rhyperior were fast.

>>43464491
The Metagame is called Flipped, which has the Base Stats swap with the opposite stats.
HP > Spe
Atk > SpD
Def > SpA
SpA > Def
SpD > Atk
Spe > HP
So Snorlax in this meta has 30/110/65/65/110/130 stats.

Nigga the fact that Smogon is coming up with a ton of weird formats where stats are switched around or rules are different means that the meta is stagnant as fuck.

That was the first thing I thought.
Unfortunately, Ledian isn't in SS, so it doesn't even get the slight honor of stats that synergize with Iron Fist.

It's Ledian. One of the shittiest Pokemon to ever exist.
Ledian's usefulness is at 0, so bumping it up to a 1, even if it's a 1 out of a possible 1 million, is still infinitely better than what it had before.
