Unfortunately, as cool a mechanic as Terastalization is, it's gotten to the point where it does feel like the core problem with almost all of the OU and Ubers bans. Pokémon that would normally just be "extremely good" or "top tier", like Volcarona or Miraidon, just get pushed over the edge by Terastalizing into a defensive type like Fairy, Water or Steel, or by further amplifying their already potent STAB types further. While I was fine with it early on, it feels like a new vote needs to be considered on Terastalization in Singles formats, where open team sheet isn't that reasonable.

Personally, I'm unsure if Koraidon will follow Miraidon to AG. Now that teams don't need to handle both of the Paradox Cyclizars at once, Pokemon that were able to check both, such as Landorus-T, Gliscor, Arceus-Fairy, etc, won't feel as pressured anymore. Arceus-Water also becomes a much better pick since it deals with Tera Fire Koraidon, while not having to worry about Miraidon anymore.
@WaterZer02 сағат бұрын
Koraidon has like the perfect tera type (fire) which might make it a little easier to handle. I mean you can do for a different tera on it, but fire is so good because it makes you resist fairy (biggest weakness) and powers up your fire attacks even more.

@@Blackhomeking12 That's an interesting argument - it brings to mind the question "what is the point of Tera as a mechanic?" I think back to the optimism of the past, where people were theorizing about Tera type use on specific Pokemon to try and get around their weaknesses. Using Tera in creative ways was the more fun aspect of the mechanic (and in my logic is the *point* of the mechanic), but being able to use it at any time in a given battle is an unusual amount of versatility to have. Dynamax had many problems, but one of the most important was its ability to be used at basically any time and Uno Reverse card momentum. This is one of Tera's largest problems, and imo tying it to an item means that you can keep the more creative uses of Tera on Pokemon that *truly need it* to succeed, because they will commit to its use. Think about how strong hazard stacking is in this generation - if you wanted to pick between HDB or a Tera Orb on Volcarona, which would you choose? Not to mention, the "point" of the mechanic being versatile doesn't apply to in-game trainers at all, where they will use it on their ace for battle flair. I think this mechanic being as versatile as it is is actually a flavor *loss*. The problem with tying it to an item is its use in VGC - that is to say, there wouldn't be nearly as much usage in VGC, which is probably why they chose to use it this way. Better to err on the side of making a marketed mechanic too strong and adjusting it in post, compared to buffing it later and trying to change people's minds on using it. That being said, I realize Smogon leans so heavily on being cartridge viable, but I wouldn't even mind if the nature of Tera fundamentally changed to make singles more fun. If Game Freak isn't going to balance around Singles being fun, maybe we should take that responsibility ourselves. If we can have National Dex, why stop there? tl;dr... nuh uh

The gap between Miraidon and Koraidon for me is that the checks for Miraidon (other than arceus-ground) suck as pokemon. But the checks for koraidon are versatile and good (skeledirge/intimidate mons/ho-oh/gliscor). Not saying Korai isn’t broken either way, but I think the reason Miraidon was first on the chopping block is that it forced you to use awful pokemon just for a chance at checking it. You needed a hard counter to Miraidon (of which there are maybe 2) plus a backup check to stand a chance

I think it was just that dealing with _both_ Lizards was too much. Imagine, if you will, a world where Gen. 1 had a Super Saiyan Beedrill. It has Mewtwo's stats, but with Defense swapped for Special and 255 Attack. In every other way, it is a Beedrill. Mewtwo and SSj Beedrill can kill each other, but they need setup to do it consistently and some variants might match up worse against others, so they don't truly check one another. Meanwhile, you now need to plan the rest of your team around both Mewtwo and SSj Beedrill. Mewtwo answers get torn apart by SSj Beedrill and vice-versa. At that point, the community would probably make a call on which one is the lesser evil and ban the other. One is fine, two is not.

I agree with you: I love Miraidon as a Pokemon, and I don't mind that it's this powerful, but I also understand it is banned for that reason. Stab + terrain boost is very powerful, and only having 1 potential check (Iron Bundle) restricts your team, so I get why he's banned. What I don't get is, what's next? Koraidon won't dominate the meta, cuz his ability and type don't buff each other up. And EVERY Quark Drive mon loses that extra power/speed boost that they got from terrain. Maybe we could see some mons in Ubers UU make a return, like Annihilape.

Next gen, I'll expect hadron & orch to drop to 1.2x boost like pixilate did, then drop the damage of drift & collison to either 90 with 1.5x boost or make the boost 1.3x or 1.2x. Finally, following the trend of response ubers (see below for generational list), I'd imagine that there will be a response next gen for calyrex-s, and for both korraidon/miraidon. Unfortunately it could mean the rise of another dominant ground, dragon, or ghost type as the brain dead solution to dragons & ghosts are dragons & ghosts. problems in ubers: mewtwo, stall meta, kyogre, darkrai, xerneas, pdon, dusk mane, zacian ubers designed in response: (lugia/ho-oh), (kyogre), (zekrom/pdon/miraidon/korraidon), (genesect/mega mewtwo/xerneas/zacian/zamazenta), (pdon/solgaleo/dusk mane/zacian/zamazenta/etern), (zygarde-c/no red orb), (calyrex-s/ no z crystals), and tbh no response has been made to calyrex-s

It says a lot about how strong this thing is when both of its STAB types have immunities, yet it still feels impossible to switch into. Too powerful, too versatile, enables too much stupid shit with leccy terrain.

In my eyes, since Gen 6 Ubers with Mega Ray, the format should be treated like a normal tier where bans are allowed and can be for whatever the tier deems worthy of it.

i'm glad miraidon's gone but i'm sad that electric terrain is now unviable in every single tier, it was a really fun archetype in gen 7 and 8 but between tapu koko's kidnapping, rising voltage going from standard electric move to raging bolt's signature move (still confused about that one) and now this it's just impossible to play it anywhere outside of zu or natdex. it is very fun in natdex though, you just run tapu koko with a fast electric type with rising voltage (i'm fond of specs zeraora) and your whole gameplan is just to bully the enemy ground type since rising voltage spam wins on the spot without it (just to give an idea, modest specs zeraora with tera electric rising voltage does 57-67% to standard spdef ferrothorn)

I still don’t understand why Smogon hasn’t taken a page from VGC and at least shown what the Tera type is. Idk if it would have helped in Miraidon’s case but some other bans would have been avoided if you made that variable less surprising
@oscen335Сағат бұрын
Showing what Tera Type the mon is doesn't help, you're still playing the same team with the same mons and its not like the randomness is being decreased to a manageable level with some mons

I don't know about anyone else. But I love the limited metagames that exist when these new games are released. You get a lot of seemingly unimpressive Pokémon becoming meta staples. As soon as they start releasing things like Pokémon home and expanded pokedexes I feel like I lose interest in the tiers.

I'd rather them take a long time to ban something than immediately ban it. It means that it has more thoroughly been proven to be a problem.

My first take on this is that Koraidon should almost definitely be banned aswell. Yes miraidons better, but not by that much. Miraidon is banned for being overcentralising, no koraidons going to be just as centralising. Maybe I’m wrong
@auenboy45713 сағат бұрын
Miraidon isn’t as broken as the past Uber banned Pokémon. It just has the benefit of having a mechanic that is as strong as dynamax as its enabler. These Pokémon in a future game wouldn’t be a problem unlike the likes of mega ray who would be banned in any generation it is in.

Respectfully, how do you know if the votes that were cast in the ban vote were not rigged, like with Kyurem in the OU metagame? Is this a question of the trust in the system itself?
