If used by sleep talk I thought it possible could be canceled out, but yea it shouldn´t, since if it did, it would have been a bit more common on resttalk sets :/

I wonder if the lag from hyper beam would get "canceled out" in this set

Recycling is a waste of time as using the same move twice in a row gives you effectively 200% power with only one move slot. Using a move with the Gem then Recycling it gives you 150% power over two turns with two move slots.

Acrobat double stab with double power because you used up your gem? Seems helpful to me.

These could be good for bluffing a choice item - of course not throwing out the move that will activate it until later.

Then, when you really need it, you switch moves, surprising them, and you net a power boost that they didn't expect either. I figure these will be situational but have the potential to be powerful game changers.

Jewels were meant for unburden/ acrobat users imo

i find them kind of like mistic water, charcoals, and mericle seeds, those things that can only raise the power of 1 move.

That's exactly what they are, only disposable. That's why they're basically tailor made for unburden and Acrobatics. Out of curiosity, what does Dark Gem do to Fling?

I once used this on a lead, it was pretty decent in killing antileads, problem is, I totally wasted a team slot in the grande scheme of the battle.

First off, they act as a 1.5 boost as opposed to a 1.2 times boost. Second of all, Fling would fail as the Gem would be consumed before the attack itself worked.

I was refering to the raise power of one type of move part but thanks on the fling part.
