      @@YouW00t Even in gen 2 heracross and MAYBE scizor helped a bit, and they stood out against the garbage in gen 3 too. Gen 4 was where it really accellerated with Heracross being a dominant sweeper thanks to the p/s split giving it a good moveset variety, scizor gaining an amazing ability and the tools to abuse it not to mention some half decent new bugs like Yanmega to speed boost its way through teams with respectable special attack and strong STABs.

      It’s honestly not even overall power creep that did it, tbh gen 8 really had power decay thanks to all the mons that just died along with megas and Z moves deleted. The main reason that it’s NU is because as it is now funny zarude is a top tier in ru and that Mon happens to invalidate celebi nearly completely. If it moved to uu I’d bet celebi instantly moves back up

    kinda wish Celebi had a "signature move" elated to time travel. something called "Healing time" with 5 PP which lets celebi go away for a turn (like if you used dig, fly, or phantom force) and when it comes back, it heals half of its HP and returns with its stats reset to normal.
    it would let Celebi become a perfect stall. Even better if it lets you use it in other pokemon ike Sky drop. that celebi once uses it in another pokemon in double battles, it cn reset and heal both of your pokemon or take out a very buffed opponent's pokemon while resetting it to normal state (as it, by bye primal, or mega evolution), and celebi steal heals itself.
    it would also let you re-abuse (and suffer again) of stealth rock and spikes or toxic spikes as this "Healing time" move would coun the re entry as the pokemon had switched back into battle

    The Power Creep is off the charts, OU is insane, and UU is effectively the new standard tier of competitive Pokemon, and who knows how long that will last.
