You may reassign it. I won't be able to make much progress with it for a bit, so it would be best to try and find someone willing and dedicated to finishing up the Snorlax analysis. I can help find a guy if you want.

Hey, can you try to make some progress with the Snorlax analysis, we need to get that up asap.

maybe consider musharna for research group? yeah it's a lot less bulky than cress and doesn't have levitate but it's noticeably stronger and has cool move options that cress lacks like heal bell and baton pass
