Thanks so much! Glassjaw is one of my favourite emo bands.

Oh, fantastic, I love that stuff. Please, I love recommendations! I’m a big post-hardcore and emo (including that third-wave emo-pop, of which I’ve heard frankly too many bands and probably have a problem) guy. Not crazy about metalcore, really (I mean, I like Poison The Well, but who doesn’t?)...

Are you into a lot of pop-punk acts? I have a hand absentmindedly on the pulse of that scene by virtue of liking a lot of things it crossbreeds with, I might have some recommendations you’d enjoy :)

I've spent a good amount of time recently getting friends into bands...it's very fun. I feel like I must've shown Cursive and Glassjaw to everyone I know at this point, especially since I've been listening to Worship and Tribute a lot lately.

https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/everything-you-ever-wanted-to-know-about-ratings.3487422/ I believe it falls under the "simplicity" portion of this? 1000 is a nice, rounded number for everyone to start at and makes sure you don't manage to get stuck in the absolute dredges. I think Smash's...

I'd assume it's the same reason that (iirc) evasion abilities aren't banned. Flinch-hax isn't a prevalent enough "strategy" in Little Cup for Stench to receive tiering action over other, more high-priority and usage threats (such as the recent Gastly ban).

… I’m an idiot. Carry on. I could have sworn I checked over all of the RMT before I asked but I obviously need to go back to bed…

What tier and gen is this team for? You mention wanting it to be sub-OU. This team would get completely cooked in current gen OU, so I guess that’s fair, but Ferrothorn doesn’t exist in SV so I’m assuming it’s past gen UU? If so, Hisui-Goodra isn’t available in Gen 8 or below. I’m not an UU...

Hatterene has Magic Bounce and Nuzzle utility along with CM/Stored Power, and I saw it on Balance decently enough when I played if I remember correctly. As for Gambit, it’s basically mandatory on any non-stall team. And considering it has an entry in the Stall Bible, I’d assume it’s been used on...

See, this is interesting to me. The main use of Gimmighoul I’ve seen is Rattled shenanigans in its chest form, which still doesn’t get it fast enough to outspeed any meta threats in most cases and usually ends up setting up one NP and dying. With 196 Spe and a positive nature it hits 18 speed...

What support does Shellder appreciate to do its shell smash shenanigans? I've been spitballing team ideas for Open and didn't know where to start with Shellder

I believe this is why Volc is controversial in the first place, right? As the “matchup moth” it has a wild amount of versatility (and the ability to win games on preview sometimes) that Tera exacerbates, making it hard to build checks to it because it can change type + add a STAB on the fly to...
