    DISCLAIMERS ON FORMATS COVERED:
    Notice I said POPULAR formats, meaning a format where there is a significant amount of people who compete in it for tournaments and so on and so forth.
    For the record, I do not care what rules or formats people play their battles by nor am I saying these formats are the only formats that should be played. The way you play Pokemon is between you and your opponent. I just like examining popular tournament formats.

      I believe Skarmory has more issue with Heavy-Duty Boots than Corviknight tbh.

Heavy-Duty Boots makes Spikes worthless until they are Knocked Off.

      1) Its typing is amazing defensively on its own in general (this cannot be understated).
      2) It would be more apt to say that its physical Defense is fantastic even uninvested, and thus it can afford to fully invest in HP and Special Defense, making up for the low base stats you correctly point out.
      And Glacier Wolf is referring to Skarmory's adaptive metagame evolution over the course of Gen 4 (9:50), which only continued in Gens 5-7 (see 24:38), though to a less impactful degree.

    • @renren958

      Definitely, it's actually being much more preferred than corviknight too in a good chunk of teams! The ability to lay spikes is as important as ever when the defoggers are super limited and it hard stops threats like driller/scizor/rillaboom
      and helps against stuff like urshifu a good bit
      Corvi tends to get way overwhelmed nowadays bc of lower physical bulk so it can easily be just haxed out by sd exca for example
      SkarmBliss is actually v potent right now w most teams anchoring it
      Got also much better when cinderace and magearna left the tier.
      Body press was a huge buff too
      most sets are press/toxic/roost/spikes but iron defense is also relevant

      Renren corviknight takes less than a percent less damage from physical moves than skarmory. Sure the defenses are lower but the thing has 100 hp compared to skarms 65. Skarm is preferable on some teams due to the way its used. They fulfill different roles. The mons you mentioned gte walled by skarm get walled the same way by corv

      Skarmory will rise by using its best new move, body press. It doesn't need to waste moveslots on Defog or spikes due to the prevalence of Heavy duty boots. It's really good offensive moveset, access to sturdy and weak armor, and boosting options gives it opportunities to be a surprisingly good late game sweeper.

    You know, Skarmory’s actually had a really cool competitive career. It consistently remained one of the best Pokemon in OU for five straight generations, including the Weather Wars of Gen 5 and the Mega Incursion Of Gen 6. It did this not by destroying everything in its way, but by instead doing the inverse: it remained on top by being the wall that kept the OU giants at bay, standing its ground against some of the scariest Pokemon in competitive history. Plus, it was even able to wall the literal Poke-Gods of Ubers to great effect. That’s just really impressive, the immovable wall upon which all of OU was defined for five generations straight.

    Fun Fact : Mantine actually used to be Skarmory's counterpart. They're both flying type Pokémon introduced in Gen 2, was right next to each other in the Pokedex and had the same base stat just with their Physical and Special stats switched. However Mantine is no longer considered Skarmory's counterpart since it got a pre-evolution in Gen 4 and gained a +20 buff into it's HP

      Honestly Gen 8 easily surpasses both Gen 5 and Gen 6 in terms of powercreep: Cinderace, Dracovish and Galarian-Darma are all banned to ubers moreover Dynamax as a mechanic literally breaks the game (the immunity to flinching, fazing, OHKOs etc is just insane) and Crowned Zacian is just... Ugh!

      @@lynxfresh5214 That doesn't really prove that gen 8 got that much in terms of powercreep. Dynamax is only allowed in Ubers, and so is Zacian, in a game where we have a very limited amount of legendaries in the game.
      Most of the tier shifting happened because of the addition of new moves and new items, as well as the limited Pokedex.

      @@Mepphy99 I guess it depends on what you prefer, Skarm provides hazards and walls harder on the physical side and Corv has U-turn for momentum, pressure and viable offensive sets. In the current meta Corv is better since hazards are so common and nearly every mon gets them. It's sad since Skarm has always been great and still is but Corv is better rn

    Skarmory actually has a pretty undewhelming base stat total with 465 but a decent destripution of those stats, a great typing and most importantly a large list of important support moves have made it into one of the best competitive Pokèmon for a long, long time.
    Seein how many great mons fall victim to bigger, better versions of themselves through powercreep it's insane how long Skarmory managed to stay relevant.
