there's some variety
the issue is that rby mewtwo is more broken than mega rayquaza was in oras ubers, and it's a negative thing when you freeze a non-mewtwo because that means you cannot now freeze the opposing mewtwo
there's also possibilities of truly endless battles happening when players run the antimeta mew set of reflect twave sboiled transform. transform works on transformed targets and gives you 5 new pp for all moves, so a ditto of those two mews = dead game

I guess it could be played in the allstars week if we decide to do one next year, just for fun, if the two people decide to do so? From what I've seen/heard/read/read in Isa's post it isn't really fit for a competitive tier.
:( because rby is pretty cool

With my latest info, there's like 3 layers: Lead, which is like a sleeper (e.g. Jynx) or a powerful sleep absorber (e.g. Tauros); choices out of Slowbro, Chansey, Exeggutor, Snorlax and Zapdos; using Mew and Mewtwo. My viabily ranking thread still says Chansey and Slowbro are S because I went on a streak of like 17/18-0 with using Lead + Exeggutor, Chansey, Slowbro, Mew, Mewtwo, but since I got wonderful countered by the Zapdos + Snorlax core vs that team, I realised that middle layer shifts around. A few more tournaments will probably have to be hosted until we figure out the high level metagame exactly.
Edit: Also, the transform stalemate to me seems to be solved by banning either transform, or a combination with it, if it occurs too regularly, or the need for some mechanical clause (possibly expansion of endless battle) to end battles that get into this and similar stalemate situations.

Krauersaut could you please make a post and tag Fireburn in said post as to force him to unlock the smack talk thread? Anything offensive will do, thanks!
