Last post of 2023, I really thought I did an update already due all the changes I've done between this and the last post. In the previous post, I said that I wanted a Legality List for balls and a Tracker Area for collected mons but that it required a full team. Unfortunately, I was not that...

Right, now I see the confusion, thanks for that Carl. Makes complete sense. Because that Sneasler QB was like a week before these results came out and we've had surveys at a fairly consistent pace. My dumbass mind gracefully excluded Sneasler and thought it wasn't a part on this Survey and a...

Let me just clarify something. I didn't say you ignored the survey. I was saying what would be the point of having this survey if no action was taken, as that would be ignoring those results. So I just wanna say I feel you misread that and if you found that rude, thats my bad for not making that...

Honestly its not even a question, Ghold needs to be suspected. Saying its too late before DLC2 really means nothing. What was even the point of having a survey if we were simply going to ignore the results and know that going into DLC2 meant those results would be invalid anyways. Waiting does...

The reason why people aren't following the Gholdengo rule is because for some (like myself) the two are practically joined at the hip. I can't really talk about what makes Gliscor broken without mentioning Gholdengo's stranglehold on the tier and for me its the difference between what does and...

Next shift is gonna drop Lando to UU calling it now. I honestly feel like if the DLC happened even a week sooner it would have happened. Absolutely crazy to think this is happening so soon. To think Chomp, Tran and soon to be Lando will be UU not to mention mons like Gren as well barely hanging on.

Landing Toxic is enough, as it puts Ursaluna on that much needed Timer that allows it to be played around. Gliscor only gets folded by a +1 if Blood Moon is running max spa and you don't have a lot of investment, something Ursa doesn't always run, and if it is, then you outspeed anyways and can...

Alright so while my thoughts on this mon are still pending, OP's post did bother me in one major way, which was the line " In term of counterplay, there is admittedly a lack of reliable defensive counterplay". As someone who plays defensively exclusively, this did not vibe with me. If this was...

Honestly I agree with this. I don't know why we try so hard to preserve certain abilities but remove them from others. For example, we ban certain abilities like Power Construct on Zygarde but we didn't ban Gorilla Tactics on Darm and lets be honest, even though Zen Mode stats were insane, very...

Gonna also say that that was a gross underestimation of how good Tusk actually is. Even if Gambit got banned, Tusk would still be #1 in terms of usage. Tusk fits on literally every playstyle, offense, weather, balance, stall, dread it, run from it, Great Tusk still fits on any team. Its the...

I think this has been said to death but broken should not check broken. If Gambit is banned and other threats rise up, they get suspects and/or banned. I wouldn't vote DNB with that logic. If Pult and Ghold become more oppressive then we can expect they'll be looked into later.

People really be overblowing Kingambit to the point where I just had to give my two cents. Gonna start by saying, if your opponent saved Tera, and played a 5v6 to keep their Gambit at full health and both got you to use your Tera taking away any option/mindgames and weakened your team enough...

So bet you weren't expecting another update so soon right? Well I've made a few more changes and these ones are actually pretty big. The first of which is I've now redesigned and made the CTS public with a few needed changes. The first of which is the ability to select multiple natures instead...

Honestly I think the best way to accommodate both sides at this point is just more clarity. I think its pretty clear that regardless of the side of the fence that you are on, that this ban is staying put for now. So the next question is, can we get like, some sort of timeline for a Volc test...

So its been half a year, and a lot has happened recently. I took a few months away from PT to come back with a fresh prospective on what needs to be done and now the site has had a lot of improvements. The first big overall change is that I've now paid for actual designs. Previously this was...
