![]() Manaphy is a Pokemon that has been uber since fourth gen. Strangely enough, I don't really get why it is Uber in my opinion. Like all the baby legends. It has all base stats of 100. Which is pretty average and expected in baby legends.... It has the ability of Hydration which allows to not be put under any status while it's raining. Which was a GREAT thing with all the permanent weather themed teams out there. But, since it Gen 6 there is no more permanent weather anymore. As it only lasts for 5-8 turns now.
Movesets [Smogon] Manaphy @ Leftovers Ability: Hydration EVs: 252 SAtk / 252 HP / 4 SDef Timid Nature - Calm Mind - Rest - Scald - Ice Beam Manaphy @ Life Orb Ability: Hydration EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Timid Nature - Tail Glow - Rest - Scald - Grass Knot Hydration: Heals all status when it's raining. In these sets, They were heavily reliable to the rain. Hence both of them having rest. Which is not a bad tactic at all. But if the weather gets changed by things like Tyranitar , or Groudon. Manaphy would have to take a back seat! Sure Manaphy can hit them both with SE moves but, 9/10 they can take the hits. With Tyranitars boost in SDef due to Sand Stream. And the reduced damage to Groudon due to Drought. This will be discussed for a whole week. You can vote to keep it Uber, Or we can move to OU.

I voted 'keep it' purely on the fact that I have battled it only a few times and each time I was able to take it out without much hassle. But, it is still unknown to me, so I wouldn't hurt to leave it OU for the time being and then if it is too OP then we can move it back up to UBERS.

Honestly for my opinion it should stay uber, because the reason tail glow gives a +3 stat boost and if you have rain no status conditions will be any use to you whatsoever, And the thing about Tyranitar and Groudon, Ttar can take a hit cause the Sp.Def boost, but when manaphy tail Glows it honestly wouldn't matter either way 299 >> 700+ can still ohko something like ttar especially with STAB boost, and with that same reason to groudon, with +3 it wouldn't matter due to the STAB boost. | ||||||||

Let's see... When Gen 6 gets installed, drop it to OU, until then, leave it as it is. | ||||||||

It should be Ubers imo... Tail Glow is a really dangerous move which can sweep teams... | ||||||||
