Explain that

Worst list ever

Scizor tier B WHAT? politoed tier S? this list is awkward I wouldn't rely on it too much terrakion have his flaws so is genesect metagross is really viable in OU.. this list isn't too accurate most OU pokemons have a niche to themselves so you can use them well as long as the synergy and strategy works right..

^This i have beat teams that were "Rank A" with just "Rank C" pokemon

I'll agree with you on Scizor. He should be A tier. Poltoed is good and so is terrakion, but I think terrakion should be A. Genesect is broken as fuk and Smogon is actaully thinking about banning it. Metagross...I don't know much about him.

Care to produce another link

Yeah, I agree with the list for the most part, but also agree with wht you're saying. This list definitely isn't perfect IMO but it's somewhere in the ballpark.

But to add more to the topic favorites are always used i love using RU and UU pokemon in ou such as my manual rain duo of crobat and kingdra its just knowing how to utilize the pokemon in the common days metagame that list is one of the worst pieces of garbage i have ever seen yes tiers do exist however that doesn't make a pokemon worthless such as metagross is a class d -_- Metagross is perfect for todays metagame especially agiligross word to the wise dont ever trust that list

Of course.

There is no point in winning with "whatever Pokémon makes me win".

Well, you can't exactly win with Pokemon that don't make you win.

I always use my favorites. But sometimes I'll make team up using some Pokémon I don't care for. I always switch back to my favorites after a few battles though.
Whether I win or lose, I always have more fun using the Pokémon I like.

[jeffdavid102]

Actually it's funny. My favorite Pokemon is Infernape. I challenge myself to make a bunch of teams without using it. So I try to avoid favorites a lot of the time.

This reminds of that recently closed RMT. I just noticed this thread after that thing was closed with the big favorite vs usefulness controversy.

What if genesect terrakion are your favorites?

[Affinity1993]

What if genesect terrakion are your favorites?

Then you will thoroughly enjoy the metagame.

[halodeoxys]

What if genesect terrakion are your favorites?

Then you will likely be using gene and terrakion.

[BlueDryBones1]

Every team of mine I have to have something special. I try to put as many of my favorites together that can work well together. I have alot of favorites though most are in UU/NU

[Eaglehawk]

I use Grumpig every once in a while.

[trident20]

yes i use my favorites. then i use pokemon that are just plain old awesome and then they become my favorites

[FlamingTouymato]

Heh, Definatley.
I always use Salamence during Wi-Fi battles.

[Coyote_Dynamo]

I do sometimes, Milotic and Dragonite come in handy time to time.

[Sparkbeat]

I use my favorites a lot in lower tiers like RU. I almost always have Manectric on my team. In OU I use Jirachi and Gengar on a lot of my teams. I probably use the most favorites on my LC teams, which contain Porygon and Murkrow.

[Affinity1993]

Unless your favorites can make use of choice scarf or benefit like crazy from weather or use volt turn you will almost never win and its just that simple.

[Earth Wolf-Howl]

I plan to merely use Pokemon that will work. For instance, I heard that Azelf and Machamp were being used increasingly more, so at the recommendations of a guide I saw, I'm using a Gallade to take them down. Gyarados will be my attacker, and Regirock will be a defensive wall.

(Yes, I am new to this stuff...)

[MetalSonic]

Yea Pawniard makes good death fodder some of the time.

[MugoUrth]

Pretty much the Pokemon I have in my team are UU or lower (And Excadrill) because most of my favorites are in those tiers. Ironically, pretty much all of my LEAST favorite Pokemon are OU or higher.

Well, do you use your favorites reasonably, at least?

I love Groyvile, but I'd never use it competitively, but I will with Zoroark.

Well yea if something needs to die then Pawniard it is. -w- He's alright at revenging with Sucker Punch, however.
