| i dunno if this sorta stuff is allowed but it deals with the competitive metagame. My question is skarm bliss over rate? Dont just say yes give me a reason why
I dont think so because they are several ways to counter it: 1). because skarms hp is low, heavy physical hitters can own skarmbliss, its no where near as good as it was in G/S/C
2). Mixed sweepers are everywhere these days: infernape, jirachi, and azelf come to mind
3). Explosion and Focus punch. Many things carry focus punch merely because of Blissey. Many speicial sweepers invest in attack ev's simply to OHKO bliss.
4). Trick. Trick shuts down blissey and skarmory effectively.
Those are my reasons why Skarmbliss is NOT overrated | |

| Anyone that uses Skarmbliss nowdays should NEVER win a battle, unless they're using a stall team, and even then it's not that great. | |

| sadly there are no more good physical walls, but i ran skarmbliss on a balance team, and it works rather fine | |

| Skarmory doesn't have hardly any hold in competitive play anymore, because everything started packing Fire Blast for it, and now people are finding Bronzong to do the job better. | |

| I'm surprised people today still somehow know of it. O_o
Skarmbliss hasn't been a real threat since third gen. | |

| SkarmBliss lost the element of "threat" when MixApe jumped out of Chris Griffin's closet.. | |

| Skarmory is not hard to beat with electric or fire, and fighting types own blissey. It is not uncounterable | |

| Oh man, SkarmBliss takes me back to the old days of the 3rd Gen metagame. It used to wall a ton of things, but then when the 4th Gen came out, Infernape, Electivire, and others Pokemon/moves came along and make SkarmBliss worthless. Well Skarmory anyway, no one really uses it anymore.
SkarmBliss was so tough...the first 6 months of the D/P metagame, but then once people understood it, SkarmBliss is a joke now. | |

| Yeah, a good hitmonchan, LO with fire punch could maybe 2HKO a skarmory, and a CC could OHKO a blissey. But then again, who ever uses hitmonchan in this metagame?

Massive amounts of fire and EQ's in OU and not so much in UU EQ is neutral to Shuckle. Also Shuckle = God in SS. SkarmBliss is only pheared by newbs anymore. Bronzong far outclasses Skarm, except in terms of Spikes, and Blissey, while an amazing SpDef sponge needs to be played Carefully because everyone and their mom's brother's dog's bitch's little sister carries a strong fighting move to deal with the blob. | |
