You better be right <| sep |> Not really no . <| sep |> It was poorly phrased . What he meant is that you cannot see a beam of light unless it directed into your eye in some way . The sun is seen from Earth basically a point source and radiates in all directions equally . <| sep |> Pelipper is getting a ton of usage in OU atm so I wouldn ' t be surpised at all if it ends up being OU this genTorkoal still doesn ' t have much since Sun isn ' t a great weather and there are setters like ZardY still , Drought will most likely be banned by UU so unfortunately this is still probably doomed Vanilluxe will probably have a bigger niche in NU depending on how tiers shape up due to Hail ' s increased viability with the introduction of Slush Rush on Beartic and Alolan Sandslash . It would face a lot of competition from Abomasnow , Aurorus , and potentially Alolan Ninetales as setters in low tiers but it would still probably be a decent pickGigalith is looking a lot better since Sand boosts its own SpDef and can help Pokemon in lower tiers like Sandslash and Stoutland without forcing them to rely on Hippopotas as a Sand Setter . I ' m not sure of how the VGC meta is so I can ' t comment on that . Out of all of these Pelipper appears to be the main winner with Gigalith becoming a lot better of a pick in low tiers but still not having a chance in OU due to the omnipresence of TTar . Vanilluxe gets a bit of a buff but not any too major , and Torkoal seems to not benefit much at all unfortunately Bibarel will probably have a niche in low tiers since 4 LO Return can OHKO defensive threats such as Vileplume , but due to its mediocre bulk and reliance on SD to do much Samurott , Kabutops , Barbaracle , etc , will probably be the better pick in NU . This is quite a big buff for Bibarel so hopefully it ' ll become a decent threat in PU but it still won ' t be that great imo
