is snorlax "uber"

[CyberLaserDragon]

i think people that ban pokemon because theyre "uber" are weak and dont want to get beaten by my kyogre (lol) but i want to know if snorlax is uber. its really hard to beat cuz it rests all the time and my ice types can't beat it with that unfair thick fat trait (it sounds so gay). when i send out my handy machamp, they just switch! if it knows curse, then it's just unbeatable, and i yell at my opponent for using it. do you think snorlax should be banned?

No way... there are better pokés than Snorlax which aren't even legendary

Snorlax is in no way Uber. If you can't counter it, then you need to remake your Team.

Admittedly, Snorlax is one of the more difficult Pokémon to defeat. But it is beatable, and it's a long way off from being invincible. Try a SubSeeder, IMO. They trounce Snorlax without a second thought. Yeah, it'll switch, most likely, but then you've got a Sceptile/Celebi with Substitute to ruin whatever comes in to replace it.

Failing that, Reflect. Skarmory. Forretress. Spikes. Roar. Whirlwind. Taunt. Will-o-Wisp. Those are just a few of the many, many counters to Snorlax. There's no reason for not being able to beat Snorlax, except utter incompetence.

Anyone who votes Yes deserves to be dangled off a cliff by a fraying rope. This is one of the most laughable Polls I've seen in almost two years of being at Serebii. This is just like those nubes who grouse about Blissey being Uber, Broken, or some other nonsense like that.

That would be the thread creator then. lol at "No. Your a n00b if you pick this."

Anyway, he's far from it. His defense pre-Curse isn't fantastic, and low speed is easy to take advantage of, and Cross Chop coming from Machamp, for example, would really dent it easily, especially if Critical Hit. Or, the prescence of it could force it out, leaving it for later, maybe last, where Encore would **** it up bad. And you can Snatch things anyway.

I'm surprised so many ppl said snorlax isn't uber. i bet youre just cheap snorlax metagross salamence etc. losers. well i dont use cheap pokemon like that; like karen of the elite four says, "strong pokemon. weak pokemon. that is only the selfish perception of trainers. truly skilled trainers try to win with their favorites." for example, my corsola tore up a ho-oh the other day. so don't be cheap by using snorlax! if you agree, put this in your sig. ;222;

 

[Grammer]

^ WTF man, just because those pokemon are more powerful than others dosn't mean that they're cheap. Salamance falls to your lovely ice pokemon which you seem to love, and Metagross can be killed by a ground type.

Now that's taking it to far kid. Not everyone uses those Pokemon. Hell, I got a Hitmonlee that kicks butt, but I don't go around saying what you just said. I admit, Salamence, Metagross, and Snorlax are OU, but with the right stratagy, these Pokemon become Chop-Suey. So you are free to use your favorites, you just might not have the right Pokemon to take them out. Peace.

EDIT: And ny the way, the Rate My Team section has a list of Pokemon that are UBER. Kyogre would be one of them.

Karen's quote is something to be scoffed at. OF course you could win with your faves, but what if the foe is using a serious well constructed team that matches with the metagame against you?
Seriously, Snorlax isn't the end of the world. If you play ubers then Groudon totally tears up Snorlax. In standard, Skarmory can phaze it (watch out for the occasional Fire Blast), Weezing makes it cry, Psych Up Metagross beats it everytime, Rhydon, Jirachi and Regirock beats non-Earthquaking Snorlax, Gengar beats non Shadow Balling Lax, and Celebi can outstall it with Leech Seed.

You can´t post things like that, is flaming, I´ve reported you. And, for letting you know the truth, you were the n00b doing this

 

[Crypted Wolf]

Snorlax Cant so $|-|! ~|~ to Skarmory! CB Heracross peatty much owns it With Megahorn(IMO).

 

[Silent Conversation]

Snorlax is NOT uber. There are many better pokemon.

 

[Horn Drill]

Y halo thar, Focus Punch.

Why'd CyberLaserDragon hafta get banned? I want more polls like this.

 

[Deathskully]

The thread name killed me.

Snorlax is no way uber. Use something like a Heracross, a Gengar if it's got earthquake, etc. Rebuild your team to counter it, and don't be an idiot and clause it =/

And I'm not a noob for picking the choice that says Snorlax is not an uber, because it clearly isn't.
