Smogon needs to redesign their whole competitive scene in all honesty its not working and the more pokemon added the worse it gets. Adding more tiers only prolongs the issues of the format say they do add ZU well some pokemon wont make the cut and go to untiered anyway just like what happened with PU. Hecks complex banning from gen 5 shows how toxic it has gotten. And their obsession with each gen having all the pokemon is also showing its problems to their system. Allowing mythical pokemon was also not a healthy idea as deoxys, keldeo, jirachi, mew, etc have shown how warping they are.

@@hockeycrafter6086 I think the cutoffs should be decreased (i.e. lower % of usage) and there should perhaps be a voting stage for Pokemon who come very close to this cutoff. I’ve noticed that the banlists have become increasingly massive, partially because of how volatile usage stats can be and partially, maybe, because Smogon has gotten increasingly more ban-happy, changing their philosophy from getting rid of what makes the game unplayable to getting rid of things selectively to make it more competitive. Or in another sense, before it was about getting rid of things when there’s a good reason that it’s bad, but now it’s getting rid of things if there’s no reason why it’s good [good meaning healthy]. That’s just my impression from looking through usage stats and whatnot, and some of the recent bans + arguments in favour of those bans, I wouldn’t claim to be an expert on this.

Fun fact, Clamperl has one of the most unique histories of any Pokemon in competitive. The damn thing is viable, albeit highly niche and gimmicky, in Gen 3 and Gen 4 UU, thanks to Deep Sea Tooth giving it more unboosted Special Attack than Deoxys-A. In Gen 5 LC they had to ban Deep Sea Tooth entirely because Clamperl reached a whopping 68 Special Attack and 22 speed off a single Shell Smash at level 5 (by comparison one of the best Little Cup Pokemon is Abra, who has had to be suspect tested many times, and it caps at 22 SpAtk and 19 speed, which it will never have both of due to natures). Somehow a monstrously powerful glass cannon is a freaking clam, an animal that stands as a literal symbol of defense.
@Igorcastrochucre2 жыл бұрын
Given the fact that to get one in Gen 3, you have to use Dive on the Abadoned Ship, get the Scanner, then go to Slateport and trade it for a CHOICE between a Deepseatooth or a Deepseascale, you can only pick one, you can never get the other, and the one you get is the only one available. And you still have to trade Clamperl holding one. I guess it's not AS convoluted as finding a Feebas in route 119, but still too much trouble for two Pokémon not even that good.

For all the trouble RSE made it to get them, you'd think Gorebyss and Huntail would be incredible mons. Dual stab and physical offensive options would massively improved Gorebyss. I always found Huntail more useful due to the fact it's movepool can account for both types of offense. We have yet to see BDSP's meta develop to it's fullest potential but it's likely Gorebyss will be a NU superstar once again if the conditions are right.

I loved this weird fish in gen 5, used to play it baton passing to darmanitan that than proceeded to decimate everything with life orb boosted flare blitz. The strategy didn t work most of the time since i really wasn t good at competitive singles but when it did it was really satisfying. Edit: also i didn t bother with checking ivs , i was fine with just getting the right nature, so that definetely didn t help my success in online matches

Gorebyss can be a terror in the battle tower of emerald, specially against physical attackers. It will setup raindance, then hydropump hits like a truck and it is quite bulky, it will need at least three physical hits before dying.

A Mega Evoution with Psychic typing and Magic Bounce (which could be wicked with Smash Pass) could help it to make it shine again

Gorebyss is a sneaky late round Draft League pick. Even if Smash Pass is banned, it still can put in some insane work on it's own

Huntail and Gorebyss would've been outclassed by Blastoise as a Shell Smasher if they were in Gen 8, plus Carracosta returned in the Crown Tundra

What I would do is use Pelipper to set up rain then switch into a pokemon like a half health ferrothorn with a rindo berry gorbyss with some defensive investment to tank a grass type attack and boost up with shell smash allowing me to start wrecking havok with high powered attacks using.

This video is an odd yet great example of the problem with Water Types. There's so many that its really hard to be unique in your own way. Gorebyss is a mid tier pokemon, Shell Smash, Okay movepool. Has the tools but due to the sheer amount of Water Types, There's almost always something better then it because several other water types also have the same tools. I feel like the only way for Waters to stand out nowadays is obscene stats or gimmicks like Toxepex or Barraskewda.

GF could have made it Water/Psychic or Water/Fairy when gen 6 rolled around, but they chose not to. A secondary typing wouldn't have fixed all of its flaws, but STAB coverage of some variety would have helped its role as a sweeper. I feel like Fairy giving it Draining Kiss at least would make sense given its pointy mouth.
@leojamesquiambao10472 жыл бұрын
Gorebyss didn't gain the fairy-type since it was based on a snipe eel (a type of fish). There is nothing about it that screams fairy-type apart from it being pink. Having draining kiss in its learnset makes sense though since its entries mention it draining other beings of their energy, but that's it.

Ill always remember a match i had against a guy in person who went in hard on smash passing with gorebyss, had two smashes and a sub set up thinking he was safe to switch to his graninja, but I just so happen to be using a Noivern with infiltrator, meaning I hit past his sub on what he assumed was a safe botton pass and ohko`ed his strategy

I actually used Gorebyss in bw2. She was honestly really solid. Really great with Aqua ring and swift swim.
