No, tiering of SM RU will be done independently when the tier is available.
I'm content with how ORAS have turned out to be, banning Baton Pass is definitely a good step to making bolder decisions in the new tier and keeping this old tier stable. Sad to see Medicham and Mawile's viability take a hit, but the tier in itself is in a healthier state. I don't think anything else is particularly broken in any way, everything is manageable if you build a decent team pretty much.
I really like Escavalier in this metagame, a majority of Venusaur sets are defensive and even offensive sets lack HP Fire so Escavalier acts pretty much as a counter to that. I personally like using a spread that runs a LOT of Speed, enough to outspeed Mega Camerupt and its outspeeding shenanigans, so I can pressure them much more after a Swords Dance. I'm certain that a core of Escavalier + Alomomola + Scarf Drapion is a pretty solid one, as they complement each other not only by typing, but also support-wise.
Escavalier @ Leftovers
Ability: Overcoat
EVs: 48 HP / 252 Atk / 208 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Megahorn
- Iron Head
- Drill Run
I used this set in LTPL and I'm 2-1 with it, sometimes I wish I had Knock Off to make sure Jellicent doesn't get a free switch-in, but I like Drill Run especially because it can beat Camerupt and Registeel easily. Iron Head is also nice to beat Diancie especially when Escavalier's weakened because they tend to stay in and KO it with Diamond Storm :p
