I'm mostly curious on what's hot with mix n mega, particularly with the Tapus and their terrains pre-mega. I'm also excited to see how this meta does with the pre-mega speeds no longer a factor.

http://i.imgur.com/GZbna3f.png When using Power Trick (and I'd assume for others), the modifiers aren't shown (switching the base stat then applying boosts). Continues to show base-stat and final result, despite Power Trick altering the stats. This should be included in the mouse-over modifiers

He has magic coat for leech seed spam (as per the replay) which made me think it was moot, but I never knew infestation was rapid spinnable so that's pretty cool. However, what does this set have for a magic guard mon, especially with leftovers? Also why not invest 252 252 in atk and spa? Waste...

I was going to question Rapid Spin when it's 1v1, but then I saw it removes infestation... Not bad

The way you describe a lot of these mons that were banned, the same abilities seem to come up. Is there any chance that suspecting abilities like adaptability would happen?

Thank you for the code! I wouldn't be surprised if we see some change with poison mechanics with gamefreak within the next 2 generations, so hopefully this metagame will be a good transition for all players. I'm really liking the idea of balance teams with mons like Tentacruel or Roserade, with...

What are the feelings about moves in gen 2-3? The elemental punches, crunch, dragon claw were special. Zam can have an ultimate mixed set without the weak power behidn Hidden Power Also do the hidden powers "peak" as a base 70 move? Or are they base 60 to accommodate tehnician users? A lot of...

So some of the best balance/HO toxic spike setters have to be Scolipede, Tentacruel, custap lead Forretress(?), the Nidos (queen namely), Drapion and to some extent Dragalge, as these all have access to bulk and/or poison setting moves like Sludge Bomb, Poison Jab, and generally good offensive...

As nice of an idea as it is to look to the future and prevent problems, I feel like tspikes can't really fully be determined as centralizing. At the end of the day, this metagame is your standard OU with a new pokemon mechanic that makes tspikes slightly more viable and allows poison jab/sludge...

I've discussed poison being the special equivalent of burn in the OU chatroom many many months ago, and I gave my reservations about toxic so that it would not be inflicting half special on account of toxic being its own residual damage move. Therefore I'd like it to maintain that we vote Toxic...

Nice keldeo counter

My mistake! I'm thinking of a sceptile set I was using to replace serperior, Sceptile doesn't get Taunt, Serp does. Thus, serperior can deal with chansey and set up to +6, and potentially 2hko Amoonguss if hazards are up or if amoonguss was low before it switched in.

Serperior would actually be much more threatening if it had Taunt, but seeing as it doesn't, without Life Orb it can barely 3hko clefables with spdef, and without knock off it can't properly deal with chansey either, though chansey risks a substitute on a toxic, but seismic toss 3hkos LO. It's...
