regirock - change preferred nature on offensive tank from adamant to impish; adamant isn't necessary to KO anything iirc and the difference defensively is incredible (doing stuff like changing LO samurott's waterfall from a 50% 2HKO to a guaranteed 3HKO is pretty awesome). remove slash of t-wave - it can either be re-slashed behind eq or removed altogether, i don't mind. t-wave is a pretty heavy burden on regirock now that golurk can basically switch in for free without it. ice punch is probably worthy of consideration for golurk alone. thoughts?

specially defensive regirock is literally non-existent and 'support' regirock is essentially the exact same set with a different spread. can we remove that set and drop the other spreads into AC of the tank set?

T-Wave should still be mentioned in AC, but I agree it's a lot worse currently. I would probably just slash Ice Punch where T-Wave is currently. Yes on the other changes. Also mention Psych Up Regirock and its role against Kacaw in AC.

carracosta - adamant becomes primary slash (outspeeding serperior is not that big of an issue). liechi should probably be made into another set imo, but if hail remains / everyone else thinks it's not worth it then i'll just add in the mention later. also re-arranging the sets to put smash first.

Smash first y. Liechi should maybe just be AC, at least for now.

emboar - different speed numbers, the current one hits jack all. adamant should have enough for gorebyss (and possibly a little more for timid exeggutor / golurk) and jolly should be running max speed. (is mixed even good?)

Speed changes are fine with me. Mixed is certainly good, but what I think is better is a set around Substitute. It gets so many opportunites to get one up currently, and does work once it does. CBB has been using Sub with 3 special moves, and it looks amazing tbh.

gardevoir - perhaps it's just me but i really feel like subcm should be a set (the first one). again we'll have to see whether or not hail goes but subcm is honestly the best gardevoir set i've used by far, and i've used nearly all of them. i also really like the sound of a destiny bond slash on scarf gardevoir, or at least ac mention of it. it's a nice tool to catch something off-guard or to trade a low-hp gardy for a pkmn or to ensure a free switch-in for something else when facing down something like absol or skuntank.

I've honestly never been able to pin Gardevoir down as having a best set, so the choice of which is first is arbitrary for me. Destiny Bond is one of my favorite moves so y.

gorebyss - i might be alone in this thought (also lol gorebyss hasn't been updated or needed to change anything since i wrote it in like january) but subsmash is honestly the best set gorebyss has and it should be first. actually i'll push through an update for this analysis later

ordering of the sets is again w/e for me. What I do want to see is HP Electric and/or Signal Beam being used over HP Grass, as they are a lot more relevant currently with Mantine and Ludicolo.

haunter - subdisable should slash sludge bomb > hp, that is what everyone uses. it also gets owned by cb struggles from everything, so... this is something that needs to be made note of.

y

kangaskhan - should be using an adamant spread with double-edge slashed before return (and body slam dropped to ac or w/e).

y. As some users may know I also think Fake Out is a bit of wasted potential, and kanga could be better off (in certain situations) using another move. Basically I don't think Fake Out should be the first move, but rather further down and slashed with something else.

sawsbuck - should be using double-edge to 2HKO amoonguss, slash return behind it but power is a necessity when you're frail as shit
