What I don't like about Smogon is the attitude that comes from a lot of their players. I also find a very similar attitude in VGC. But not quite to the same extent. Also, i clearly state on PSS, "Multi/VGC" yet I still have people saying "Uber noob", "Ubers
" First off, while Smogon is big. It's not official, and not everyone plays by their tiers. Myself included. I get so tired of people ranting at me for using mega Mence. Seriously, it's not that tough. Tailwind support/HP Ice/Greninja/Suicune against the physical variant, Sylveon for the special variant.
Sorry for ranting.
Nor do I agree with some of their bans/reasons for banning.
I find mega Khan alot easier to deal with these days compared to say the beginning of XY. Back then it was kinda a monster.
Agreed on Swagger and Dark Void! >.< However, magic bounce against Dark Void is classic. And one Japanese player used their Thundurus to swagger my mega Metagross. Hit through confusion to KO said Thundurus and snapped out of confusion after that turn and KO'd their last two mons. That was sweet.
Though it rarely plays like that :3
