Idk what usage stats you're looking at but Volc had 15.9% usage last month. It also doesn't matter because Arch got banned with 9.203% in February and 11.578% in January.

I don't think so, this was what happened in Natdex with Tera, some prominent community members (allegedly) rallied and got some of their fans/communities to get reqs and vote DNB.

I do think Protective Pads are a bit of an underrated option given how common Volcarona (and sort of Zapdos) are, but I suppose the opportunity cost is far too high

That's fair enough - I can admit I got a bit carried away. Apologies to you both Pais. This isn't really the core of the issue with Volcarona I think - people don't really complain about the random SpA boost as far as I've ever seen. The main issue is its synergy with Tera and Tera Blast being...

Nothing really - it's against the rules to have multiple forum accounts but if you're using a VPN and have lots of burner emails, I guess it's possible. But that's a lot of time and effort just to make something get banned or not get banned in a children's video game. Yeah this wasn't super...

I literally discussed and critiqued every other other point in his post already with him - you definitely saw the posts because you laugh reacted them lmfao

Real discussions... how long ago??? Like what's happening here, Pais was talking about Solgaleo, which people were only talking about because of Finch's tweet a week ago, no real actual conversations have been had since HOME. As for this point, I mean people don't want it banned anymore so...

If you don't care that Finch said it's a joke and told us NOT to talk about Ubers being dropped as a reason to save Volc because it won't happen - why even bother posting in the first place bc it seems like you're not willing to talk about the fact that you're voting DNB for something that is...

You post a screenshot of your account with the requirements in this thread. Then when the voting opens, you'll get mentioned in the new thread for voting. Make sure that it's a new account with the GXE requirements.

Sure, but a Tera ban is off the table and you've still said it's dangerous as of right now but would still rather keep it unbanned? This is by definition not a counter because it cannot switch in and win 1v1 every time.

Just because there are also other potentially broken Pokemon that exist doesn't mean that Volcarona isn't broken - it's a highly effective setup sweeper that can pick and choose what it wants to check with 3-4 different teras and sets that can make it hard to account for. This doesn't have to...

Volc suspect is an interesting one because ik a lot of us don't like it but is it actually as constricting on the tier as we make out to be? Especially when threat saturation is so high right now.

This isn't true btw, the two most recent surveys include BOTH questions. Qualified responses failed to reach a majority on whether Tera should be restricted both times.

See this point makes sense (ofc people changed their opinions, but there's no doubt CTC's posts swayed some people or even convinced some people to try for reqs in the first place) but now what does that have to do with your initial point of WCoP supposedly changing because of "discontent with...

Yeah I figured the initial hype at the start of the suspect died down. But now the meta continues and I'm not sure if there's anything of priority to suspect, maybe Raging Bolt ig. Just a very high powered meta right now which doesn't have to be a bad thing. It's actually the lowest ban % of...

I personally think Lando-I would be funny.

The only thing I can think of has to be Deoxys-S being a large problem to the lead meta maybe?? I don't even know if I'd want anything else on the radar that isn't already deconfirmed lmao Maybe dnite but that's a weird one I think.

We also don't know if Legends Z-A will be the new main game because Legends Arceus wasn't, so we just have to wait until the game is out

I do get your point but it's mostly surrounding the idea of coverage right - when mons have coverage, they don't also have guaranteed STAB on that coverage unlike with Tera Blast. Darkrai using Ice Beam doesn't have STAB on it unless it chooses to be Tera Ice (literally why the fuck would it do...

Glad the bridge was banned. In using rain on ladder to get to proper grips with it and why I think Arch is dumb, I agree that Raging Bolt was also fucking stupid and needs to be addressed. Roaring Moon and Gouging Fire are also problematic. Probs would want Bolt > Fire > Moon in terms of...
