The recent suspect test in Smogons OU tier has resulted in Swagger being banned from our tier. This decision hit the required 66% supermajority to be sent to Ubers. You can read some of the reasons for why swagger is uncompetitive in Smogon OU here: goo.my/swaggity But to make a quick summary: -Swagger is uncompetitive on Pokemon even without Prankster -Steel losing the Dark resist means Foul Play spam is incredibly potent -Swag teams can play without any metagame knowledge necessary; playing with swag teams is following a flow chart -Own Tempo Pokemon are not viable in OU -Persim/Lum are not effective counters against spamming swagger -Combined with Choice Scarf Ditto you are able to copy the opponents swag boosts and clean their team completely Look forward to playing our OU tier with a complete lack of Swagger, keep in mind this does not affect Smogon Doubles, VGC, or BattleSpot.
