At the same time, some banned mons like Dragapult and Dragonite are also allowed here. Seems like the validator is bugging out.

I noticed that Terapagos is legal, just like in standard AAA. But does anyone know how the ability Tera Shift interacts with adding another ability? Will Terapagos be able to shift into its Terastal form and have its chosen ability active? Or is it a Palafin situation where it won't change forms...

Mathematically, Perrserker is closer to around 12 - 13% weaker than Dhelmise, but that's still really broken.

Oookayyyyy...Instead of laughing, can you give me a reason why Dhelmise, and Perrserker/Dhelmise Junior over there, are healthy and not banworthy?

Cool Gigaton is not banned. Alright get Dhelmise and Perrserker out of this house. A free 50% boost to Gigaton is just not ok in any universe.

We've been dancing around this "Belly Drum Broken" talking point so much, and we have made no progress in understanding why one side is so adamantly for/against Belly Drum. If you don't mind sharing, dehzao, could you drop some of the teams you have been using that you believe have adapted to...

Your strongest Technician Mach Punch user is Conkeldurr, who doesn't even kill with his Mach Punch. 252+ Atk Technician Conkeldurr Mach Punch vs. 0 HP / 4 Def Inteleon: 160-190 (56.9 - 67.6%) -- guaranteed 2HKO Choice Band can guaranteed a kill with hazards, but Banded Tech Conk has too many...

All really good bans, thank you, OM team, for your service. I am so excited to play this tier more now after final exa---- :inteleon: Nah nah nah, keep this mon locked up. It was banned before because of the nuke that was Protean Boomburst Tera Normal, but even with Tera and Boomburst locked...

The issue isn't necessarily that Ting-Lu does not check them short term or even long (because he does, easily lol), but its more of the fact that your initial team had no way to pressure the special breakers and/or RegenPivot that every other passive wall on your team lets in, forcing you to go...

Respectfully, this team gets its shit pushed in by any half-decent Zamazenta, Scream Tail, Latios, Offensive Gholdengo, Zapdos team. If you want to build around Chien-Pao's breaking power, you need a team designed to bring the leopard's frail ass in constantly as relying on doubling to get...

Cross Evolution, Frantic Fusions, Camomons, Fortemons

The problem is not power, its counterplay. Once Yanmega gets a free switch via switching in after a KO or god forbid a U-turn, you are forced to hard commit to taking out the Yanmega, else it boost its speed to the point of no return. Admittingly, it is not the best into offensive teams because...

A suspect for Gliscor just ended, though voting hasn't started yet for some reason. Even though it ended like 2 days ago... Edit: It's been a bit since the suspect ended, but honestly, I'm shocked that Gliscor was actually banned. Usually people aren't that ban happy, but color me surprised.

Convergence, Camomons, Type Split

Why not ban them both? Both are problems, kick 'em both out. Walking Wake is arguably more broken in Rain because, with Specs in Rain, it does upwards of 41% to Blissey with Water-type Hurricane, and you only really need to run Water and Dragon attacks because Water/Dragon is good offensive...
