I didn't played Pokémon since I left the Uranium community 2 years ago, so I'm not much into the new generation. I don't even know how Z-Moves works and what are Ultra Beasts. About the Zard Y, I'm ashamed for forgetting about it even tho my favorite team in Gen 6 was built around it. Actually really ashamed since it is one of my favorite mons as well, lol.

I think the main difference is that most of Uranium's 'mons aren't super amazing tanks/walls for the most part, so hyper offense-like strategies tend to be really effective/the most common strategie.

I noticed this as well. You have a lot of pokémons with insane offensive capabilites and very few defensive ones to go up against them. I don't want them to be nerfed tho. I don't like that ideia, at all. I'd rather ban them to an Ubers tier and prevent them from being used in official matches/tournaments. But I believe that, when online is stable and the meta begins to develop, people will figure out more and more strategies than we can think. That's how metagames works anyways, in every game.

*shrug*  I still think Tapu Koko is a fair enough comparison to Yatagaryu.  Summoning Electric Terrain (which was in Gen 6.  Nobody used it in serious competitive matches until Gen 7, though, when Terrain Extenders and the Terrain Surge abilities became a thing ) immediately upon entering the battlefield is really similar to Stormbringer's effects.  For reference, if you remember the Gems from gen 5, Z moves are basically that, but more extreme, once per battle things like Mega Evolution.  Nothing we currently worry about in Uranium's meta, though, since we don't even have the bare minimum Normal Gem.

No, I don't want anything to be nerfed either.  Dramsama already took a huge hit in losing its massive HP stat that was meant to partially work in conjunction with Transform (as stated by the original devs), and it really hasn't done it any favors.  Besides, very little gets directly nerfed in the main series games, so I don't see why the trend should be bucked now. (though a few notable nerfs did happen in Gen 7.  Poor Gengar got its ability switched to Cursed Body in Gen 7, losing access to Levitate entirely.  Not that it got hurt too badly by the change, but it was still kinda sad to see.  And then Darkrai got nerfed really unnecessarily as well when Dark Void got its accuracy nerfed to 50%...which was unneeded when Smeargle was the reason the nerf was put in place, and it can't even use the move any more due to another nerf making it so only Darkrai can ever use the move in the first place.  Most of the changes overall were small buffs to base stats, though, in both Gen 6 and 7.)
