    With competitive Pokémon battling comes tiers. The most recognized tiers are the single battles tiers as many of us know as Uber, OU, UU, RU, NU, PU, NFE, LC, and few BLs for Pokémon that are in between two tiers. I'm honestly surprised to see Scrafty drop to RU. I felt like it was perfectly capable and did decently in UU. For some other Pokémon, I'd move Landorus Incarnate from Ubers to OU, Thundurus Incarnate back from OU to Ubers, Raikou from OU to UU, and Serperior from OU to UU as well. What Pokémon do you think belong in different tiers?

    If it were up to me all the genies would be Ubers because I hate them. Heatran too. I've never been a fan of legendaries because it encourages people to hack them into their came because you can't breed them. I know A LOT of people disagree with me but I could care less. Its my opinion m8s.

    Also move Aegislash, Mega Mawile, and Greninja back into OU. #UnpopularOpinions

    I definitely agree with @[member="RedScizor"] on Aegislash. Aegislash was fantastic in OU, but I never really found it "too much for OU."

    On another note, back before ORAS I vouched for Talonflame to move to Ubers solely on the grounds of over-centralizing the metagame. Nowadays, I'd say OU is a bag of interesting tricks, but Raikou, Weavile, and Tornadus-Therian don't really go past BL in my opinion.

    You'd be surprised at just how much work Weavile does in the current format.

    I honestly have no idea why people arent using Mismagius to the point of being NU. I mean, she's quite similar to Gengar. They have similar movepools and the same ability. Gengar IS a bit faster, and is stronger, but Mismagius is more Specially bulky, and unlike Gengar, has access to Nasty Plot/Calm Mind. Im not saying Mismagius should be full-on OU. But at the very least RU would be nice.

    It can definitely put in work. I'll retract my previous statement as I was able to play around with Weavile a little in OU last night and it did rather well. I'll keep that in mind :)

    Raikou doesn't put in enough work in OU imo. It is outclassed speed wise by Thundy and bulk and power wise by Magnezone which has a bigger niche of trapping Steels. Raikou puts in work in OU but it doesn't put enough in. I was generally surprised to see it move up. I've never seen it as much of a threat.

    In my opinion I say Greninja and Mega Mawile should come back to OU. I remember hearing about the Greninja ban on how they did it because of Gunk Shot and Low Kick (That's what I heard anyways. I don't know anything else.)

    Also I want Talonflame and Lando-T to be in Ubers, but they won't for quite obvious reasons. I just don't like them personally, and the fact that I see them in almost every game.

    Something I would love to see would definitely be Genesect coming back down to OU. I love this thing and I feel like its ban was very controversial. The main reason it was banned was due to maintaining momentum and versatility. I feel like the tier has settled enough with the transition to ORAS such that it is even less broken now. Genesect is a personally favorite of mine and I would love to be able to use it again.

    I'd love Aegislash back in OU, but with LV OU and all, I think I can survive without it being there.
    I'd like to see Hoopa-Unbound in Uber. That thing is a threat, and I've seen it a lot when playing OU. Then again, I've always felt like Ditto should be RU, as I've really never seen many people use the transforming Pokémon all that much when playing OU.
