    I think we need to show some respect to Ledian. When it was first introduced in Gen2, it was a funny little guy with no niche in competitive play. It managed to hold that status throughout Gen3 to Gen7, and even though it doesn't exist in either Gen8 or Gen9, Ledian still managed to be a funny little guy. Even more impressively, it manages all this without being a horse Pokémon, as its movepool only reflects is status as a Struggling Bug.

      I can see it being low or even high B-tier, simply due to offering three immunities on top of it possessing multiple useful quirks and options, such as Trick, Taunt, Nasty Plot, Will-o-Wisp, a Toxic that never misses, a resistance to Fairy (making it a potential pick over Dragapult) and few others that elude me at the moment.
      But, yes, it'd probably be outshone by a few too many Pokémon, due to its now less-than-stellar Speed.

    The biggest issue with Heatran now is that it lost Toxic, which is a significant hit to its very DoT-centric offensive presence and a big part of what allowed it to muscle past defensive Water-types that would otherwise act as effective long-term responses to Heatran. It went from being one of the hardest Pokemon to switch into in the game to being a fairly bog-standard Fire-type offensively, and when you have exploitable typing and below-average Speed this is quite difficult to reconcile.

    I would also mention Latios as an incredibly consistent mon, Ubers in gens 3-6, then they nerfed soul dew so it became bad there but still was good in OU though sometimes outclassed by his Sister because of the mega form. Gen 8 it fell down after losing its mega but was banned from UU, gen 9 didn't get banned there but is one of the best in the tier.

    Skarm is a Pokémon that I fear may get an evolution down the line. Think of it, it’s an og from Gen 2, it’s bst isnt that high, not even braking the 500s, and it is positively useless in VGC, which is mostly where GF will look in order to buff or nerf stuff.

    Volcarona is almost always either "balanced" as in a small buff, a slight change in the mechanics, or crippling of the competition away from being broken, or straight up drops all pretenses. Even at its "lowest" point, it was only UU because of Talonflame's completely bonkers ability. Also, unlike the other examples, its ability is useful, but it rarely relies on that.

    Gen 4 granted it Special Bug and Poison STAB as well as Tinted Lens and the moves U-Turn, Roost and Toxic Spikes.
    Gen 5 granted it ducking Quiver Dance.
    It jumped from NU/ZU to UU/RUBL within a span of 5 Generations and kept this at least until Gen 7 afaik (AND banned from Gen 6 UU!)

    A big reason to why both Heatran and Tornadus-T has fallen off is because they both lost Toxic.
    It doesn't sound like much, but this is actually a pretty massive nerf to both of these mons, as Toxic was the primarily way these two mons were able to make progress versus their defensive checks.
