    This has been on LV for ages, but never in a convenient area... Time to fix that!

    The LV OU tier varies from Smogon's OU in terms of bans. Essentially, many things they ban aren't banned here. The following Pokémon are allowed in LV OU:
    - Deoxys-Speed
    - Deoxys-Defense
    - Aegislash
    - Blaze Blaziken
    - Greninja (without Gunk Shot and/or Low Kick)
    - Landorus

    This is subject to, but not likely to, change.

    Landorus.

    YES

    The fact that this is still alive is making me really happy! I thought this died along with the server! Here's to a great tier!

    We will not bend to the will of competitive Pokémon dictators. LV's OU tier will stand strong and meet Smogon's army of change with resistance. We may lose a few battles, but we won't really care.
    I don't battle anymore, so whenever something gets banned, let me know and I'll get some help with evaluating it. Some things might stay banned (Mega Salamence/Mega Kangaskahn/Mega Lucario/Mega Gengar, etc.), but for the most part, bans won't really stick here.

    You'll embrace your smogon overlords eventually, Winter is coming for your Aegislash and Lando-I's.

    I have resisted Smogon for seven years and I am still going strong. Their armies may be plentiful, but they are not as strong as they seem. LV's defense force cannot be beat... because... we fight for freedom.

    Why not just make LV it's own ruleset?

    Now that Hoopa-Unbound has been banned to Ubers, will it banned from LV OU as well?

    I'm personally in favor of it's ban, despite the fact I haven't had any major problems with it and that it has really low Defense and somewhat low Speed. You have to remember that it doesn't have single counter (tell me Pokémon that can switch in on him, when you're not sure if it's choice locked, or when it has just been brought in. It's somewhat like Greninja, except trading speed for REALLY high Attack and Special Attack while getting pretty good Special Defense. I personally don't see any possible complex bans that could hone him down either like with Greninja. While dealing with Hoopa-Unbound is rather easy for offensive teams, it's MUCH harder to beat it with balanced one, and even harder to beat with stall.
