*1) It has yet to show signs of breaking metagame - I got no reason to believe that greninja is harmful for metagame, that thing is been around for 2 years! If it was harmful, shouldn't the metagame be dead by now*
U have just now an healthy metagame what u mean xDDD last 2 years the meta wasnt healthy at all xD
last season was not healthy at all!!
Also! How can u say Greninja isnt harmful? Spikes Greninja is just busted, due the amount of cover a Greninja Kit might hold. Yes he cant check all pokes at once, but it makes it unpredictable, since he cant carry:
-Gunk Shot
-Rock Slide
-Hydro Pump / Surf
-HP Fire/Grass
-Extrasensory
-U-turn
-Ice Beam
The coverage each move gives it, is insane. Have u ever played vs a greninja and thought, ok what now? i dont a fat chansey on the team, so what is the best switch i can make? Understand, greninja doesnt have a safe switch! Even if u do have any, it pressures u out, and puts spikes. there it goes 6% each switch u make, allow him to stack up with rocks, will be funny xD
So with this tell me again: how can u say its not harmful?
It can be dealt with all major playstyles- whats the current meta, chansey? ferrothrom?? clefable??? Playstyle- Rain? Trickroom?? Balanced Teams??? Greninja can handle all of them alone? with 4 moves?? OK
Issue isnt be able to handle ALL wit h1 kit. the problem is, the viable kits that he MIGHT have. making it almost impossible to predict by just looking at it. and switch SAFELY into what u expect it will check THAT Greninja (thinking he wont have the move that will make the poke u put in front of hi, easy food)
PS: Stop with wallero council and crap. they were the first ones saying sableye was an issue, so cut the crap. So far every decision made by the council has been the best course of action for this game.
