“I think Venusaur might fall from Underused now that the tier has a sleep ban.” Uh, yeah, I can see that.

Really a status button in general. Even I know not letting it sleep stuff really hurts it.

[@spindash64]

It does have the fastest razor Leaf in the game, but, like, how often do you really NEED STAB Razor Leaf in order to fill a hole in your team? It still loses to Tentacruel because it’s part poison (the one time that actually ends up being useful), Dugtrio is going to slap it with EQ and probably not stick around anyway, Hypno just nukes with Psychic and is better handled by physical attacks anyway…. People dunk on Meganium for being poopoo, but Venusaur arguably had it even worse in its competitive debut than Meg’s debut, just because NO ONE wants to be a poison type. If Gengar weren’t poison, it would probably be the Big Four. If Cruel weren’t poison, it would probably be a niche pick in OU, as a SD Wrapper with the ability to obliterate Rhydon, and naturally outspeeding a lot of things

[@aprinnyonbreak1290]

I would assume it's just like, a quickly applied ban, but what *makes* it quick? Is it time-based, is the due process more lax, or something else?

That's a good point, quickbans are just bans made without any community input like a vote. Technically there was no vote for Poliwrath and Raichu either, but there had been plenty of discussion around them and no one opposed a potential ban

It's quick due to there not being a vote needed. If something is extremely overpowered and everyone knows it's going to get banned nearly unanimously if a vote was held, they don't bother with a vote.

And by proxy, Golem might actually be better, since you essentialy get 2 Ground types. Heck, I could even see Sandslash being decent. It's already niche as a Swords Dance sweeper, so if ground types are even more important, I could see it having more of a place. And with this, I honestly think Exeggutor becomes the best mon. It wrecks Rhydon, has sleep and para and explosion. With more ground types being used to counter elec types, and the physics being better, I could honestly see Lapras coming back into OU purely because of that.
