Getting STAB on both Ice and Electric is insane, even if Blizzard has shaky accuracy. Having this alone already made Rotom good in PU. Now it has Nasty Plot AND Heavy Duty Boots to ignore hazards, which makes it just beat almost everything in the tier

What do you even mean?
gf was wrong on giving the worst rotom form the same tools they given to the others just because it happens to be too much for one of the weakest tier ever?
Rotom-Heat is finally a top tier and balanced mons thank to them, if anything Rotom-Frost need to be even stronger to at least be UU viable.

Why do you announce these here every time? Metas change every fucking month. Most people dont even play competitive, and those who do and care, already know this.

It's funny how years prior /vp/ used to bitch constantly about Stealth Rock and how "there is no counterplay to it"
Now that counterplay exists, /vp/ wants the option to be banned

/vp/ hated stealth rock because it single handedly made their precious charizard a shitmon
they didn't think that rocks were so important to shaping the game even levitators/fliers would run it when immune to all other hazards

To be deliberately inflammatory and get free (You)'s.
You know how there's a lot of bait threads that start with OP calling a Pokemon "she" and that guarantees that the thread will be full of shitflinging and screaming about furries and trannies and such?
It's kinda like that. Every Smogon thread is a bait thread because even if you start a serious thread in good faith for the sole purpose of starting a discussion about competitive, some butthurt faggot will start crying about the mere existence of a fanfic meta and the shitflinging will ensue.

Kys
/vp/literally bullied Charizard to death.
As a /vp/ user who was here for early gen 5, I hated stealth rock because it was cancerous hyper used mechanic.
Steal rock was basically gen 4's Dynamax, mega, perma weather and z moves
To the point everyone used a retarded forretress in a war of hazard and spinners.
I also hated SR because it broke focus sashes, which was the last resort to not get swept by dragon dancers/outrage-scarfers.

Why did GF even make Heavy Duty Boots in the first place?
Hazards are irrelevant in the official meta, and they shouldn't care about Smogon.
It's like they heard secondhand that Charizard sucks because it's 4x weak to Stealth Rock and implemented a new item without even knowing the context.

Stealth Rock has a presence in BSS. Obviously it’s not big but obviously it’s good enough that GF would want to make an item for certain Pokémon that don’t want to deal with it like Charizard

sounds like the meta was a shitshow for which SR was only partially responsible
it's been 10 years and Smogon still hasn't balanced Gen V properly

At the very least the topic of the thread is interesting enough to spark discussion. It's not like OP is pointing out Zamazenta getting de-restricted in Mix and Mega before Gengar or something weird like that
