Welcome one, welcome all, to the new age of Doubles! Now that ORAS has officially been released, the standard Smogon Doubles ladder is full of ORAS goodness. The era of XY Smogdubs is officially over.
As anyone who's played around more than a little can tell you, Mega Salamence is pretty strong. That's why we named this suspect stage after him. Though this thread is for the general discussion on everything in the metagame, we are particularly interested in Salamencite.
Still, note that this isn't a Suspect Discussion thread. We're not currently running a suspect test (it's too early for that yo), so please hold back on posts convincing people that something is or isn't broken. When I say we're particularly interested in Salamencite, I mean that I want to see posts about Mence sets you're using, Mence partners you're using, Mence counters you're using. Feel free, of course, to discuss sets, partners, and counters for everything else too. I and the rest of the council will be doing our due diligence to play around with as many of the things talked about in this thread as we can (and as much as we can in general) and then come to a decision on how to proceed with tiering in the near future.
Finally, it should go without saying, don't be a moron itt.
