Leech Seed and dual stabs.

Smogon 4th gen

Venusaur Tier: UU Ability: Overgrow HP80 Atk82 Def83 SpAtk100 SpDef100 Spd80 Total525

And I'm pretty sure Venusaur had Leech Seed in gen 4. And dual stabs. And yet he was UU.

I think it had LeechSeed from gen I.

Still, it doesn't answer my original question as to why Venusaur is possibly OU.

Dude! I just answered your question... I am chop liver? razz

Nope. Magikrap.

It having access to the ability chlorophyll and weather effect teams being very prevalent this gen. Especially combining that speed with the sub seed set and it being bulky to begin with.

Whoops, missed this post due to the My Gaia post-jumping. Kinda makes sense.

It's not a tier list. It's just usage statistics. SB Blaziken is uber.

It's ok, you'll get the hang of it.
Tiers were made up due to some Pokemon being too powerful in battle. Thus making it unfair. Equaling a lot of people complaining. 3nodding

Theres Uber tier, which are the Pokemon that are TOO Powerful for battle.
Then theres OU which means Over Used, its name basically says what they are. They are Pokemon who are Over used. No trick to it.
Then theres UU I think? Which means Under Used. I forget the order, but I know the lowest tier is NU which is Never Used.
So usually when people battle they select a tier in which to battle in. Example I select UU tier, so you'd have to select Pokemon from that tier for our battle.
It's just a way to make balance so battles are a bit more enjoyable, rather than you being completely rampaged by a few Mewtwo's.

Anyhow, Majority of the Pokemon that were Uber in 4th Gen are now OU in 5th. So OU will definitely have some more intense battles! Or...a lot more crying. -shrugs-

Anyhow if you read the information, it's not hard to understand. As of right from #1 Pokemon on that list till 53 I believe are the only Over Used Pokemon. Everything under that is Under Used.

It. Is. Not. A. Tier. List. Yet.
Look at the numbers next to the name. That is how many times each have been used I believe. The top 53 have a a bigger number then the lower ones and qualify as OU. They have not been sorted yet, see Blaziken and Viciniti. They are just usage statistics. AND NOT A TIER LIST.

The final ice type has fallen! With mamoswine's fall from OU, the OU is void of ice types!

Theres tons of information on Smogon.com and Serebii.net
What kind of information are you looking for?
I think theres a subforum called Trainer School in here you could check out.
3nodding
Mod's should give you useful information as well. It all depends if your willing to ask for the information and if their willing to help. xd

Anyway, suggestions from me...make a team of Pokemon you like. 3nodding
Think of how that team will do in battle against its weakness. Try to get moves that can cover their weakness and moves that do well against other types. Try them out in battle.
There should be an EV training guide in the guild somewhere. 3nodding
EV training helps ALOT. Then theres IV's, but I wouldn't worry about those for right now. sweatdrop

Anyway, what kind of Pokemon do you like? Maybe I can help. -shrug-
