Who gives a shit when this is LITERALLY a fake meta, you can bet 2/3rd of the abilities are wrong if not more

How come Pursuit and Return is allowed in ZA OU? The moves aren't in the games.

People in charge of the petmod decided to make the format have national dex movesets since the game lacked hazard removal before the DLC.

>ZA OU
Not representative of general Smogon policies
This meme is a 4th tier meta below natdex, AG / ZU and official metagame; with made-up movesets because why not
Too vanilla to just pretend ZA was turn based, I guess
>>58794930
I can somewhat understand it for abilities since they're still attributed by the game, even if they're globally disabled
>>58795478
>>58794964
>we have to mess with the entire point of the format instead of potentially banning hazards for 2 months
lmfao

I like annihilape and can't wait to use it in Champions, only things that should be banned in singles is Last Respects and tera electric air balloon shedinja who can have weezing g and tapu fini as teammates to prevent status but still needs extra support against sandstorm and hazards

ZA doesn't have abilities, every new mega has the same 3 as the base form.

I'm glad Sleep is getting banned in every gen. It's such a fucking stupid mechanic. You're basically forced to run Gliscor/a Flame Orb Pokemon on every team to switch into Spore because there's no real counterplay to it.

ZA OU is a fanfic meta run by actual retards who can't decide what they want it to actually be
I can understand not liking Smogon, but it shouldn't be judged by a handful of forum dwellers who are constantly flipping on a dime over things as small as individual items like Loaded Dice being allowed
