>character becomes as strong as characters introduced 600 chapters ago
>“Power creep”
Marineford showed the strongest characters in OP

the implication seems to be that despite relatively minor changes (the only stat difference is Special Attack going down by 10, literally every other stat is the same) Lapras went from "OU" (which is "Overused" tier AKA very high tier) to "Untiered".

>shounen embodies the usual tropes and themes
>jumps the shark a million times over
>One Piece fanatics can't even act superior about this now

Everyone just wants it to end.

Payday 2 DLC
Total War DLC factions / lords + units, 1-3 months after release before they get nerfed so the next DLC faction / lord + units looks good
Monster Hunter post launch content drops, which steadily obsolete every piece of equipment in the game, making everyone use the exact same shit no matter what weapon or playstyle they're going for

What started as a 151 Monster Game becomes a 900 Monster game
Within that ever growing amount of monsters comes higher expectations to be a threat. OU stands for OverUsed and is the place for the best Pokémon out there outside of a few overwhelming legendaries.
What may have been enough for OU nowadays hardly qualifies to be tiered in the 900 monster game, let alone be tiered in a game that, to attempt to aleviate the fact that a tier can only have so many viable monsters, has made many tiers since then. 5, as I speak, and Lapras pictured above isn't good enough for any of them, which is why it bears the title Untiered.
