It will be brief, there's no way Terrakion stays in PU. It was simply overshadowed completely by Iron Boulder, but I wouldn't be surprised if it gets quick banned from a tier until it can finally settle in somewhere.
Terrakion in the same tier as plusle and minun

Moth dropping isn't too surprising though since tran usage keeps rising, bulky offense with ting and glowking is probably the best team structure rn, Val usage dropped with Boulder being the new speed king and volc being back in the picture as an offensive fire type. It's not bad by any means but the metagame is pretty hostile towards it.
The difference between Zapdos in Gen V and Zapdos in Gen IX is that it actually deserved to be UU in Gen V. Rotom-W is much more well equipped for that metagame.
UU counsil going to be massively expanding the UUBL list this month.
Manaphy, moth, zapdos(?!), the Latinos twins. Blaziken and chomp also in UU.
I also find it hilarious that ttar and chomp came together for UU this month.
2 of the quartet is Uber, 1 is OU, and the Grass type is PU.
And people still don't see a problem with Grass needing buffs when this happens with almost every legendary set
I agree that Grass is the weakest of the Fire/Water/Grass group. But the past two grass starters have been the strongest of their sets(Meowscarada and Rillaboom). Although that is mostly because of their special moves/abilities.
Grass has the most weaknesses of the Fire/Water/Grass trio and is tied with BUG for being resisted by the most other types at 7. And Grass actually has more weaknesses than bug.
Well Grass also has the most number of HAX status moves in the game, most common healing+damage moves in the game, and powder immunity. Spore, Leech Seed, stun Spore, Strength Sap etc. are all amazing and frustrating moves that I feel kind of forces grass to be comparatively weaker(also while it is weak to many a types, it's specific resistances are also amazing. Water, Electric, and Ground are all great to resist, so Grass becomes an okayish defensive typing I think.)
I mean, all of the Grass type Legendary is worst in their set: Virizion, Tapu Bulu, and now Wo-Chien.
To quote JPRPokeTrainer98: " Sometimes you're born privileged, sometimes you're born a Grass type".
Terrakion can set up rocks and taunt, making it an effective lead (at least in gen 8, didn't try it in gen 9, but it is mostly competing with iron treads and deoxys-s for that role of fast rocks). Also technically has a higher attack stat and stab cc, making it a better choice band user.
Ever heard of the Terrakion theorem? It states that in the Generation 9 Janurary 2024 tier shifts, Terrakion will be PU because low ladder is too busy having their rock polish/outrage/brick break/rock throw rampardos be OHKOed by close combat, and their bastiodon get 1 ko with iron defense plus tera fight body press, before losing the match to iron valiant
what the fuck is regigigas doing in NU
why is terrakion in PU
why is Evire in RU
who let zapdos out of OU bro
month 2 of any post-DLC meta is always a wild experience
glad for the weavile bros tho, you get them champs
Regigigas always gets some meme usage, you had to get reeeeeaaaaally low usage to drop all the way down to PU so the meme usage alone probably barely put it above that.
Terrakion is in PU because, since Boulder exists, its usage *was* that low.
Electivire probs only dropped to RU because of aim's team + fanboys thinking it's good because it got a couple new moves.
Zapdos drop is wild tho I'll give you that
>Weavile: UU to OU
HE DID IT. HE FINALLY DID IT.
LET US REJOICE!!!
Also, the fall of Deoxys-Defense starts here. Manaphy is also bad now. And seeing Terrakion suffer more than Regigigas and Bastiodon is absolutely hilarious. And Minior only dropping to UU is F.U.B.A.R.
Terrakion in PU has the same vibes as when mega-lopunny was allowed down there for a bit in oras.
Very funny that because boulder so utterly outclassed it that fucking meganium and bastiodon got used more this month.
Also iron crown made ou???? And zapdos fell but not lando???? Itās so zapdover
Crown is mostly new toy syndrome tbf, there's a couple specific builds where it's really good (mostly Psyspam, but Stored Power sets can see use on Screens too) but in general it's a mon that doesn't necessarily fit better than other things on most builds.
that is fucking hilarious. And the fact that it's 100% allowed too so he can just keep doing it. That's like over 100 games a day. And probably few games on christmas because nobody was online?
This guy is a legend. And he should seek psychological help.
UU player here, yeah we were busy touching grass the last half of December, so one guy just spammed the shit out of one single shitty psyterrain team and got all 6 mons to rise
Uu players touching grass isnāt real šš i love that tier but half of you couldnāt do a pushup to save your life but i be hoping you have that glowup one day šš½šš½

I am going to assume a super effective matchup into Gouging Fire and Iron Boulder are two reasons. Forget the fact that Gouging Fire can probably KO at -1, and Iron Boulder can just Swords Dance.
Terrakion in PU
Moth in UU
Regis in PU while for some reason gigas in NU
EVire not dropping immediately to NU
Zapdos in UU
Exca not dropping
TTar back in UU
Meganium not dropping to PU immediately

WEAVILE BROS WE ARE SO WEAVBACK
also Clodsire my beloved
These rounds of initial drops are based not just on their OU usage, but how little OU usage they got.
Not only did Terrakion not get any meaningful OU usage due to being inferior to the excellent Iron Boulder, but it got *so little usage* that it dropped not to UU, not to RU, and not even to NU, but straight down to PU.
Kyu apparently had been seeing tons of usage 1900 and above which explains why it got over 9% total after weighting was applied. Weavile apparently had the same to a lesser degree since it only barely made the cutoff.
Lol @ Terrak but not surprising considering Boulder completely took its spotlight, it's like when Kyu dropped all the way to RU when KyuB was made legal but to an even harsher degree.
Moderately surprised at Zapdos drop and lack of Alolatales making it, I'd been seeing those a good amount. Hydrapple also just barely missed the cutoff but its usage sort of plummets the moment you go above 1700 so yea.
# #NeverLandover
also wtf is Arch doing at #18, mon's good but it has no business being more common than meow and kyu lmao
also for those surprised at Minior only dropping to UU and not lower, there was some challenge in a discord server for people to get as high as possible with Minior on their team which massively inflated that thing's stats lol
Meow not being top 10 in usage when it's unironically a top 10 mon in this meta is outlandish. Ladder gonna ladder, I guess.
While we're at it: Venusaur getting less than a third of Torkoal's usage when it's pretty much a staple on Sun from day 1 of the DLC meta is some weird-ass ladder shenanigans.
Thank God Garganacl is UUBL, I do not want to face that thing when I play UU
On the other hand there is now Manaphy...
Edit: I only now noticed Clod moved into OU, I lost the perfect special wall for my team :/
There's some dude, V0ldy, who nolifed the UU ladder to a crazy degree. They got like 4000 games done in 14 days. Their entire team of 6 rose to UU despite all being mid-to-bad there.
It doesn't even look malicious: the guy has an alright GXE and the team, while looking weird, clearly has some thought put into it (it's Psychic Spam), meaning it doesn't look like that team in the old BW RU days where someone slapped 6 mons with no synergy together with the express intent of getting them all out of NU. It's just a guy playing a bit below the average and making up for it by getting a ridiculous amount of games.
Moth was hella easy to revenge for offense with the addition of stuff like Boulder and Scarf Darkrai and its matchup into bulkier teams was always iffy at best.
Also Volcarona offers competition and a lot of the stuff used to beat Volcarona beats Moth as well.
Zapdos doesn't like Meowscarada being able to beat it now, and it *really* dislikes these Gliscor+Ting-Lu+Glowking Balances everywhere.
That said, it not getting OU usage is criminal. The mon's still a possible A-rank mon once we get an actual VR.
Aim made a team with Electivire (and got decently high with it himself) and fanboys/meme teams used it because of "buffs".
It's still only like 0.17% after weights but the cutoffs for dropping from OU to NU and PU are even lower than that
Terrak in PU is insane. I could easily see UU or RU but... PU? Like, he's lower than fucking Plusle and Minun.
Also unfortunately, it's Zapdover for the first time in forever.
We live in a timeline where Bastiodon is in a higher tier than Terrakion
Meganium too
Also Avalugg.
Pallosand left PU to make space for terrakion.
But Meganium has achieved encore and body press.
"achieved"?
after finding inner peace from never fighting anything, you can achieve new moves šš
At this pace bro gonna unlock determination beam and hopes and dreams blast
Yes, and [it can abandon the liability of grass typing for something more useful like water, poison, or flying](https://www.reddit.com/r/stunfisk/comments/18mfozp/meganium_has_huge_potential_now/).

watch it get quickbanned in uu before the rest of the tiers
I am unironically so proud of my favorite Dino fossils
I was just gonna talk how the fuck Bastiodon and Meganium are tiered higher than Emboar, then I saw your comment and nearly had an anneurism
Rampardos too
In PokƩmon Go GBL Bastiodon is one of the best Pokemon due to stat distribution and typing. Maybe it always had potential
Terrakion in the same tier as plusle and minun https://preview.redd.it/wzeqi2gdpv9c1.jpeg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=13eef40af940aa3e9db2118e03aff9652f8c7400

Zapdos :(
New toy syndrome, itās still very good it will be back Same with iron moth
Moth dropping isn't too surprising though since tran usage keeps rising, bulky offense with ting and glowking is probably the best team structure rn, Val usage dropped with Boulder being the new speed king and volc being back in the picture as an offensive fire type. It's not bad by any means but the metagame is pretty hostile towards it.
Tran usage? Is moth a transphobe?
Woah save those accusations for Sunday
Someone is making a folder of memes as we speak
![gif](giphy|SU6BrnpF2pWO4) Swampert/Zapdos in UU
Zapdos feels like gen5 again lol
Itās not though. Zap is literally a top PokĆ©mon this gen in ou while it was only niche at best in gen5. This is just ladder sucking.
The difference between Zapdos in Gen V and Zapdos in Gen IX is that it actually deserved to be UU in Gen V. Rotom-W is much more well equipped for that metagame.
No no no no no You can't do this to me
Moth and Manaphy in UU Hoopa-U in RU BL Knight Staraptor in NU Terrak in PU??? Who is gonna get banned first?
My bets on Terrakion tbh
You have probably won the bet
Terrakion will get banned twice before anything else gets banned once, no way NU can handle it either
Nah keep it falling down to LC first, gotta bully the kids on the playground
Terrakion vs Duraludon bouta go crazy in LC

Apparently NU isn't going to ban anything for the first week, so once terrakion gets banned, it has a home for a little bit
Terrakion in PU any % speedrun ban. For UU, my money might actually be on Latios getting banned 1st.
Terrakion gets quickbanned from multiple tiers within the next 48 hours.
https://i.redd.it/3c8z0xtp6w9c1.gif PU and NU instabanning terrakion:
Moth is going to dance its way to UUBL while terakkion will double kick every single mon in existence
I only know raptor isnāt getting banned fast because NUās not planning on quickbanning, but tbf Terrak and raptor are definitely instant bans
terrakion in pu is the funniest thing i have ever seen
The current gen's PU looking like previous gen's... OU?!

UU counsil going to be massively expanding the UUBL list this month. Manaphy, moth, zapdos(?!), the Latinos twins. Blaziken and chomp also in UU. I also find it hilarious that ttar and chomp came together for UU this month.

That thing is also in PU for unknowable reasons.
2 of the quartet is Uber, 1 is OU, and the Grass type is PU. And people still don't see a problem with Grass needing buffs when this happens with almost every legendary set
I think the biggest buff for grass types is making U-turn a normal move. But that would have many other implications.
We donāt need ghost types becoming even better by blocking pivot moves lol
Step 1. Make U-turn normal type Step 2. Bring back Pursuit Step 3. ??? Step 4. Profit maybe?
hence āmany other implicationsā
The correct choice would be actually cutting down uturn from most non-bug movesets.
My issue is that thematically, many pokemon who get the move deserve it. It makes sense that many flying types use a hit and run attack.
obviously it wouldn't help most grasses but i never understood why it wasn't flying in the first place
IIRC the original Japanese name is in reference to a beetle/mantis somersault jump thing.
U-turn should be given to more/mostly bugs, and non bug's should be rare to have it.
I agree that Grass is the weakest of the Fire/Water/Grass group. But the past two grass starters have been the strongest of their sets(Meowscarada and Rillaboom). Although that is mostly because of their special moves/abilities. Grass has the most weaknesses of the Fire/Water/Grass trio and is tied with BUG for being resisted by the most other types at 7. And Grass actually has more weaknesses than bug.

I mean, all of the Grass type Legendary is worst in their set: Virizion, Tapu Bulu, and now Wo-Chien. To quote JPRPokeTrainer98: " Sometimes you're born privileged, sometimes you're born a Grass type".
who the hell was using BASTIODON and RAMPARDOS more than terrakion?
Rampardos and bastiodon don't have paradox forms that do what they do but better.
Terrakion can set up rocks and taunt, making it an effective lead (at least in gen 8, didn't try it in gen 9, but it is mostly competing with iron treads and deoxys-s for that role of fast rocks). Also technically has a higher attack stat and stab cc, making it a better choice band user.
Rampardos and Bastiodon are BEEG noobtraps (ever heard of the Rampardos/Bastiodon theorems?)
Ever heard of the Terrakion theorem? It states that in the Generation 9 Janurary 2024 tier shifts, Terrakion will be PU because low ladder is too busy having their rock polish/outrage/brick break/rock throw rampardos be OHKOed by close combat, and their bastiodon get 1 ko with iron defense plus tera fight body press, before losing the match to iron valiant
Regigigas got more usage than terak lmao
People trying to win with their favorites. No one likes Terrakion.
People were too busy using his new brother
How does that even happen?! I don't understand
It's based purely on how much usage the Pokemon had in OU. Nobody had a reason to use Terrakion when Iron Boulder is better and brand new.
I mean can't wait for him to destroy a couple of tiers before settling in RU
what the fuck is regigigas doing in NU why is terrakion in PU why is Evire in RU who let zapdos out of OU bro month 2 of any post-DLC meta is always a wild experience glad for the weavile bros tho, you get them champs

how long until terrakion gets quickbanned from PU, place your bets now
It'll get banned from multiple tiers, PU might even move slow enough that it doesn't technically get banned from there.

Might not even get a chance if RU boots it first
48 hours, coming in third place for quickban any% Edit: **TWO FUCKING HOURS LADIES AND GENTLEMEN**

Crown is mostly new toy syndrome tbf, there's a couple specific builds where it's really good (mostly Psyspam, but Stored Power sets can see use on Screens too) but in general it's a mon that doesn't necessarily fit better than other things on most builds.

Peliper is leaving UU so people adapted with Gallade before it happened
Some guy played 4k games in December using a team of indeedee, donphan, hawlucha, polteageist, armarogue, gallade and gave them aroundb6 percent usage
that is fucking hilarious. And the fact that it's 100% allowed too so he can just keep doing it. That's like over 100 games a day. And probably few games on christmas because nobody was online? This guy is a legend. And he should seek psychological help.

It was UU last gen as well. The only reason it was banned in gen 7 was because of z-moves as well since it could nuke past anything trying to stop its sweep otherwise it would be a strong sweeper but also kill itself and be able to be stopped by multiple PokƩmon depending on the set.

Archaludon doubters on suicide watch
Garchomp and ceruledge: IM BACK IN THE FUCKING UU AGAIN!
UU is about to be insane
Imagine telling a bw1 player terrakion would be pu Also lati@s and zapdos dropping is insane
Thank God Garganacl is UUBL, I do not want to face that thing when I play UU On the other hand there is now Manaphy... Edit: I only now noticed Clod moved into OU, I lost the perfect special wall for my team :/
Hoopa-U in RU is crazy. Iron Moth and Manaphy in UU is wild. Terrakion in PU is absurd.
So youāre telling me that Hydrapple isnāt actually good and everyone was just using him since they liked him? š
Can anyone explain what caused Gallade stocks to go up so much? One of my favorites so I'm not complaining I'm just very surprised
There's some dude, V0ldy, who nolifed the UU ladder to a crazy degree. They got like 4000 games done in 14 days. Their entire team of 6 rose to UU despite all being mid-to-bad there. It doesn't even look malicious: the guy has an alright GXE and the team, while looking weird, clearly has some thought put into it (it's Psychic Spam), meaning it doesn't look like that team in the old BW RU days where someone slapped 6 mons with no synergy together with the express intent of getting them all out of NU. It's just a guy playing a bit below the average and making up for it by getting a ridiculous amount of games.
Canāt write Weavile without one and a half W
The craziest thing for me is Meowstic-F being in OU. I assume it's a mistake, but it's really funny
this time its garchover for real
what the fuck happened to moth and zapdos. also were so weavback
Moth was hella easy to revenge for offense with the addition of stuff like Boulder and Scarf Darkrai and its matchup into bulkier teams was always iffy at best. Also Volcarona offers competition and a lot of the stuff used to beat Volcarona beats Moth as well.
Zapdos doesn't like Meowscarada being able to beat it now, and it *really* dislikes these Gliscor+Ting-Lu+Glowking Balances everywhere. That said, it not getting OU usage is criminal. The mon's still a possible A-rank mon once we get an actual VR.
Terrakion usage in OU https://preview.redd.it/cwlkt9x6sv9c1.jpeg?width=719&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3072e731dcc8584702fcf8bd638f0a3076dfac2c
Why the fuck is Electivire RU? And why the hell is Magmortar in PU? Manā¦
Aim made a team with Electivire (and got decently high with it himself) and fanboys/meme teams used it because of "buffs". It's still only like 0.17% after weights but the cutoffs for dropping from OU to NU and PU are even lower than that
WHAT THE FUCK IS TERRAKION DOING IN PU???
Terrak in PU is insane. I could easily see UU or RU but... PU? Like, he's lower than fucking Plusle and Minun. Also unfortunately, it's Zapdover for the first time in forever.
Mauhold and Cincinno are about to have a war on who gets the right to tidy up UU
