I'd love to help, unfortunately, I'm hot garbage and too obsessed with shitmons.

I'd say tera normal is probably better here unless you use body press. Scrappy doesn't work so it's not like you're gonna get boombursted to death and tera normal also lets you dodge special ghost attacks you can't tank which does come up because gholdengo is quite good.

Just wanna say thanks for makin the sample teams, Gunch. Been usin the sun enamorous team (edit: that's the only one gunch didn't make oops, thanks sheepie) to test the ladder. Will say I've still encountered people having difficulty keeping track of information regarding weather and rocks. Less...

252+ Atk Slither Wing Bug Bite vs. 0 HP / 88 Def Appletun: 240-284 (66.4 - 78.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO plus incalculable mental damage

Oh I don't think it's good, I think Rain easily gains the least out of the weathers (Turning on swift swim hurricane thunder etc is nice but sand and snow are big and sun turns on half the paradox mons) I've just mused at the thought of it.

I've vaguely toyed with the idea of using rain(rock) to enable Thund-T and/or Kilowattrel who are premier ice absorbers who can leverage bolt beam with weather ball.

I think treating moves like gyro ball as if they have max power is kinda arbitrary and more or less bans them from use, which is fine I just think just banning them would be clearer conveyance. Also in regards to arbitrary, are you dead set on 80BP as the breakpoint? 80 is kinda low and a lot of...

2 questions. 1) how would move typing,priority, etc worked if they are combined into one discreet "move"? 2)how does the 80 damage limit function in regards to moves with variable base power? Like gyro ball.

I've pondered this myself (and Kilowattrel-Ice/Thund-T-Ice make decent ice absorbers because they take advantage of Weather Ball-Ice boltbeam in weather anyways) but from what's been discussed it seems at the moment the Freeze Dry Problem is mostly a Kyurem thing and everyone else is pretty...

So if say, stealth rocks are on board, does the reminder for them go away in 2 turns as well or does that stay because that's a persistent state? While I think there's people who find merit in playing the memory minigame I think it can otherwise be argued this is a strictly subtractive OM and a...

Recently I've been re-evaluating this (in hindsight very shallowly thought out) idea posted once before and, while I think the dynamic was interesting, I think it had problems from the getgo, I think the idea very much read as a "each pokemon gets six moves" concept rather than the intended "you...

Ok so let's say you're playing webs/hazard stack/etc and you need to take knock absorbers into account, what are your options here, are they any good? Lets go through them all. (I'm not gonna list like every pokemon that can do every method, there's a lot but I will use examples)...

Just had a silly thought but (obv it's banned bc it's an uber) Ursaluna-B sure isn't thriving anymore bc of how bad scrappy/minds eye is here. (Doin some silly research for the "so you really need to get those items off the knock absorber" post)

Yea berries are perhaps unhealthy but have you considered the possibility of how funny it would be to land the juiciest Pluck/Incinerate of all time?

I fell asleep after giving up trying to fix the spreadsheet on my phone, thanks for the heads up.
