Final Submission Revengine Revenge + Engine Pronounced: re-VEN-jin The train has steam coming out of its nose and an angry vibe. "Engine" references the steam engine that trains like this would run on. “Rev engine” is in there too and could refer to the sounds it makes when using clangorous...

I think people forget Zarude also hits really hard. I haven’t used it much recently but straight up offensive Zarude with SD / Knock / Trailblaze / Close Combat with tera fighting is a pretty solid set in my experience, outspeeding Deoxys-S after a Trailblaze. Its knock off is the same strength...

I know this isn't actually a good reason to ban something, but something interesting about a Tera Blast ban is it could allow the extremely underutilized mechanic where moves under 60 BP are boosted to 60 when terastallized to actually become relevant in very specific situations, which would be...

Final Submission 109 HP / 70 Atk / 83 Def / 127 SpAtk / 37 SpDef / 104 Spe (BST: 530) PT: 105.71 ST: 57.76 PS: 88.63 SS: 146.30 BSR: 568.75 Defining moves: Clangorous Soul, Sludge Bomb, Clanging Scales, Surf The idea behind this spread is to give us a well-defined weakness to special...

Moves like Lava Plume are better suited to Pokemon that can come in and out repeatedly throughout the game and fish for procs, which is unlikely to work for us as a mon that runs a consumable item and therefore doesn't run boots. I do think we need to be careful with the strongest coverage moves...

Make it optional. Dropping Clangorous allows us to make a frail, attacking-move-as-setup, priority immune, balls to the wall offensive monster, which is a way more honest expression of the choices we've made thus far than Clangorous Soul would ever allow in my opinion. At least give people the...

First, I want to acknowledge that of course, priority blocking works well with Clangorous Soul. Any speed boosting mon would kill for a priority immunity in this metagame. But I actually want to make the argument that our ability has a lot of synergy with a soulless build too. The ability to...

To add to this, I'd like to talk for a minute about one of our defining moves, Clangorous Soul. Something to consider is that this move makes switching into literally anything a pretty risky prospect. You come out even in terms of effective bulk when you use Clangorous Soul, but only if you're...

I know it might be too late to really be considered, but I wanted to suggest one other typing, Grass/Electric. It has some of the benefits of Water/Electric (electric STAB for mons like book, secondary stab that hits grounds, immunity to para, water resist), but it's more resilient to common...

Gonna talk about a couple typings that are cool. Grass/Psychic: OK so, I'm not fully on the "psychic everything" train, but I think this typing is pretty neat here for a number of reasons. While this typing has severe weaknesses as a whole and would typically be regarded as trash, I think it's...

I think resistance to common strong priority is a very helpful trait here. We're likely building a sweeper / cleaner, and most of the likely routes for us involve high natural speed or boosting our speed in some way. This metagame is full of users of strong priority moves, perhaps more than any...
