but then what's left of me?
This latest tier shift has completely shaken up the metagame. This thread will be serving a new purpose as a General Metagame Discussion. The council will be keeping a close eye on the meta game in order to see if anything stands out as quick ban worthy, it is unlikely that anything will be banned for at least a week in order to give everyone an adequate amount of time to play the meta game. For now, sharing your knowledge of the (NEW) Metagame is a great way to get involved and help out the community, and this new thread is just the place to do that. Some things that could be discussed in this thread include:
Be sure to keep this discussion as civil as possible, as always.
And remember to enjoy this awesome tier and only think about current suspects if the meta turns out to really suck.
The NP song is Hot Damn:
because Hot Damn these tier changes are crazy.
Also as a note, we felt there was too much shit posting immediately following the start of the last NP thread, as a result we are going to be more strict with moderation in this NP. Please keep the discussion on topic, if you want to post, "Ugh, another terrible NP song by atomicllamas" feel free to post on my wall.
- New Stage - Make some predictions on what the metagame will be like, after a few days we'd prefer if you post about actual meta game experiences and not theorymonning
- Suspect Testing - If you believe that anything is worthy of a suspect test, post about it and why you think it deserves a suspect test or to be quick banned. (However, keep in mind that we will not be banning anything immediatly, in order to adequately explore the meta).
- Metagame trends - What are the most common or effective strategies? Are there any Pokemon that you think will rise in usage?
- Top threats - What should the main priorities be when considering a team for RU?
- Playstyles - Which are most effective? Are there any that cannot succeed?
- Cores - What are some popular or solid cores? Why do they work so well, and what can be used to beat them?
- Underrated Pokemon - Just because a Pokemon isn't used much doesn't mean its bad! There are plenty of hidden gems scattered throughout low RU, NU, PU, and possibly even Little Cup!
- New sets - If you have a unique set that you've had success with recently, share it!
