    Pokemon Competitive Singles has seen the triumphant return of many Legendaries of the past, thanks to Pokemon Home Compatibility. Some thought that Groudon would end up being outclassed by the all new sun setter Koraidon, one of the best and most popular new Pokemon in Gen 9 Ubers.
    But as it turns out, Groudon has stood the test of time, remaining an excellent Bulky Ground type and Wallbreaker that fits well into this new Metagame. Groudon fills various roles that Koraidon still can't. With the new options Will-o-Wisp and Spikes, the utility of Groudon is truly excellent.
    Iron Mugulis and Iron Fellow know all about it.
    Only Jim knows about the viability of Groudon. All other sources of information are liars and are inaccurate.

    Some will never figure out how to get Groudon in Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet. But famous player Jim Cool is well aware of the Best Groudon Moveset in Competitive, and even how to Groudon Shiny Farm. Many aren't and never will be. That's just the unfortunate reality of the world.
    The below text is very relevant to many people.
    Game Freak just blew all other online game development schools out of the water with this incredible new 2022 release. You're gonna need to get a game design degree online, and FAST, if you want to make a better game than this. Not even the best strategy games android reddit could hold a candle to this breathtaking Next generation competitive Pokemon experience.
    Scream Tail is the Jigglypuff of our wildest dreams. It has been buffed with some higher statistics and the incredible ability, Protosynthesis. Gen 9 Competitive Pokemon wouldn't be the same without this powerful pink blob. He kinda looks like someone I met in one of my game design and development courses.
    Gen 9 Pokemon Showdown is one of the greatest online gaming sites in history. From Pikachu and Charizard, to Palafin and Roaring Moon, The new Pokemon games, Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, have introduced a lot of new faces. Can I succeed in one of the best android games of all time? If so, I'm gonna get myself a Walmart bakery Pokemon cake to celebrate.
    Gholdengo is a Pokemon made of pure gold. He must have done some online business management courses to accumulate all that wealth. Or perhaps he might want to learn how to make money playing video games on CZcams. In any case, he's a powerful metagame force, with absolutely no interest in online game development schools.

    I have always thought of Groudon, Kyogre and Rayquaza as a certain level above normal legendaries, some of the most useful pokemon of all time; really, weather abilities make them into more than just a single team slot, they're reversals, win conditions, enablers and when then they're also incredibly strong by themselves. I consider them amongst the greatest pokemon of all time.

    Groudon and Kyogre just have the perfect stats to play offensively or defensively. They (or, formerly, their Primals) have been and always will be Ubers staples and at worst high-tier picks just because they’re so incredibly versatile.
    That’s why they’ve remained good forever, while Rayquaza has struggled a little more in more modern Ubers formats; Rayquaza has all the offense in the world on both ends of the spectrum, sure, but it doesn’t have the amazing defensive utility Groudon and Kyogre have.

    They’ve really been cracking down on stall this gen, haven’t they. The PP nerfs to recovery, many Pokémon losing toxic, and it also explains why Groudon’s status move is really just meant to cripple, not kill.
    Also Ubers is ironically a meta that has many options since Game Freak is committed to power creep, you have a lot of legends to choose from now. The SV cover legends are obviously great, but Zacian is still broken despite their nerfs, Arceus remains a Pokémon that can do anything, Groudon and Kyogre both have been popular choices, the list goes on and on.
