grubbing in the ashes
Advance UnderUsed dates back to a time when tiering was determined very differently. A Pokemon was considered BorderLine not necessarily because it was banned from UU, but because it still had potential in OU. As a result, the BL list in Advance is huge - almost as large as the tier itself. But are all of these BL 'mons justified?
For Advance UnderUsed REVAMPED, we will be releasing a select few BL Pokemon into the tier. These were chosen because they looked like they might have a positive effect on the metagame, whether by balancing current powerhouses such as Kangaskhan or by adding something new to the tier.
How will the metagame change when Pokemon such as Armaldo and Slowbro are allowed? Will NFEs like Haunter and Vigoroth make a splash? Find out in Advance UnderUsed REVAMPED!
