They beat literally everything.
Beating stall is just a symptom of that.

If only broken pokemon can beat stall, that just means stall itself was broken to begin with

That is not even remotely true.
No one is clamouring for a Hydriegon, Gengar, or Alolan Marowak suspect.

Go ahead and play non stall against this team and report your super close victories!
Sadly, stall is meant to be the hardest strategy to beat because it’s the most brain dead way to win so better clean up the tier, but if these bad boys can just steam roll them imagine what they do to the rest of the non stall pokemon.

The problem I have with stall is that you'll get fucked sideways by it unless you gimp yourself to account for it, making it obnoxious to climb the ladder and find a stallfag.

stall hasn't been a viable strat in competitive formats (in the actual game) in over 10 years. it hasn't been a viable strat in basically any mode of singles because it is acutely unplayable due to timer rules. the only metagame where it survives, and not just survive but thrives, is the smogon OU metagame. I wonder why this is? it's because the format is a fucking joke

Lets be honest here. The game is built for singles. How many double battles do you encounter on the average play through? The reason its supported as the "official battle format" is that games dont take up to an hour to complete. Don't kid yourself for one second that, if singles was stream viable, doubles would even get a look in

A quarter of the fandom is a lot of fucking people.
18,000,000 people bought SwSh, and a quarter of that is 4,500,000.
If 4,500,000 people are playing Smogon, then it's more popular than VGC by a fucking lightyear.

Heavy duty boots were added because of the one max move that can stack with other entry hazards to KO charizard on switch in.
Mimikyu was good in doubles and 3v3 singles which is why he got nerfed.

In what way is stall balanced?
It offers way too much reward for too little risk.
And yet Smogon still defends it despite the fact that it keeps being the dominant playstyle during suspects and tournaments.
