Great job on the viability rankings, it looks very good! Regarding this metagame, will there be a cooldown until potentially August? How can it become a permanent OM on showdown?

I want to share a team I did fairly well with that didn't rely on terrain, screens or tailwind: https://pokepast.es/a33eb21fca12b119 Zamazenta @ Lum Berry Ability: Dauntless Shield Tera Type: Fighting EVs: 248 HP / 8 Def / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Iron Defense - Body Press - Crunch - Heavy...

who cooked up this tier list, it's not even april fools yet.. Firstly get Zama up to S tier (it is like a combined mega rayquaza, gen 1 mewtwo and gen 8 zacian-Z). Dragapult A --> S or S- (It does everything very well, pivot, status, or setup). Gholdengo --> A+ or S- (best zama counter and very...

Very interesting complex nerf to Kingambit that Smogon is trying out, by banning literally every other pokemon in the tier he wont be able to get his boost from his ability.

Maybe not ban Lugia. I dare you to make a usable set with it.

A decent team that got me to rank 2 in a couple of hours: https://pokepast.es/9ed3d4e90faaabc9

Gen 9 BH is such a beautiful mess of a metagame and i love it! Terastalize is the perfect defensive utility to combat all the crazy new moves and abilities or potential "nuke" to deal with defensive counterplay. That being said, moody and gorilla tactics should definitely go for a more...

Having such a blast playing Inheritance. There are just too many unique and interesting sets and I see this thread is quite outdated so thought I may share some of my sets: Pangoro (Garchomp) @ Life Orb Ability: Mold Breaker EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Earthquake - Ice Punch...

Been a long time and the metagame feels stale and repetitive, so i'm submitting a team: Description: Balance - offense with pheal, magic bounce and regen. Paste: https://pokepast.es/7280fb54998bd0b2 Weaknesses: - Specs Dragon's Maw Eternatus - Primordial sea Zama-C with nuzzle, fish rend and...

After playing for some time, here are some noteworthy things: Knock off gives you the impression you lose that ability for the game, just like with an item, but that's not the case. Weather and type immunity abilities are too prominent, making stall way too strong without drawbacks... Some...

Thought I might give a reply as a daily lobby grinder since there is not much being said and quite a lot of sets being overlocked: Eternatus @ Scope Lens Ability: Teravolt / sniper EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD / 252 Spe Modest Nature IVs: 0 Atk - Focus Energy - Draco Meteor...

+1 252+ Atk Zacian-Crowned Precipice Blades vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Fur Coat Reshiram: 192-226 (47.5 - 55.9%) -- 80.1% chance to 2HKO Honestly the dragon type does it no good either. Reshiram was good as FC in the Galarian darm zen meta because it had 10 less base attack. Volcanion is just a...

A turn too late would actually be a misplay, unless you don't have anything to hit it hard with or any pivot moves on neither of your mons. You would have to stay in on imprison with another mon then switch into zama-C on anchor shot to lose....? Regardless, imprison Zacian with taunt beats my...

Lets do some math; assuming worst case with Adamant Zacian - C + V-create, zacian gets a jump start and uses V-create on your zamazenta switchin: +1 252+ Atk Zacian-Crowned V-create vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Fur Coat Zamazenta-Crowned: 220-260 (56.7 - 67%) Lets assume you do a max damage roll...

Suicune and doublade are also very effective checks and extremely good FC mons in general using moves like scald and will o wisp to cripple zacian which really suffers more than ever from the 4 move syndrome, they can even run hazard themselves or court change to negate zacians progress...
