    Don't plan to return to the format anytime soon, just because someone created/moderates it coming in and banning mons on whim with no suspect or anything like that hit me the wrong way and was gone for a while. I was by far the most active player during pecha meta earlier this year, getting...

    Kind of? The goal is not to ladder. I don't know a single person making a bot and having it jam double pecha. A friend and I made bots that I use for testing teams over a large sample size. bingingem also correctly mentioned hippobotas which is the most active one but it uses pokemon from a set...

    Incredible new discovery that will shake up the metronome format forever! Gone are the days of Pecharunt with a new king having arrived. 100% win rate (or loss rate) guaranteed team to make ladder climb easier than ever. Don’t believe me? Look at the results yourselves: Now you may be...

    Did a quick run to 1500 with pecha bliss since its been a minute since I laddered with hard meta, and it feels really good to use right now not gonna lie. I attempted to counter-que double pickup herb once or twice into double pecha but the truth is the team does well enough into it that aiming...

    I fully agree, the first part of that paragraph is sarcastic, and the approach of balance here shouldn't be the same as main formats. I spend a lot of time theorycrafting and testing for this format and even put in the time with a friend to make a bot for testing, I really care for it. I just...

    Format Discussion Metronome Battle

    I think discussion on the ban is interesting. Out of all the climbs to 1500 I have done and made my bot also do, the fastest was actually double specs plus minus ampharos, not double pecha, with pecha veno also getting it faster than double pecha. Also looking at usage stats pecha dropped in feb...

    Format Discussion Metronome Battle

    I haven't talked much recently, had to take a break for work reasons. Recent things I've been testing is Tera ghost t-tar (magic bounce but also some other abilities) with pecharunt based on a suggestion from pyuk. It's ok, haven't seen amazing results with it. Iron-hands has been a big...

    Format Discussion Metronome Battle

    Ok so I'm making another post with a few updates. A friend helped me set up a bot for large scale testing. If anyone is interested in testing minor differences between two teams or anything like that please let me know. That said I will try to not just have it running constantly as I do not want...

    Format Discussion Metronome Battle

    There's a lot to say but I guess let's start off with this. Hit 1500 on another account (inspired by a Ting-Lu team someone shared with me). Not as consistent as my last team, but was still pretty good (played from around 1350 to 1500). Zhongli (Regirock) @ Covert Cloak Ability: Ice Scales...

    Going off of Lectrys's team I hit 1500 with Pecharunt and Veno nut (Pecharunt) @ Weakness Policy Ability: Ice Scales Shiny: Yes Tera Type: Stellar EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD Relaxed Nature IVs: 0 Spe - Metronome bean (Venusaur-Mega) (F) @ Mirror Herb...

    Format Discussion Metronome Battle

    Mhm, was just curious what people's feelings on it are, just as a vibe based thing, because to me it's prob the team I like playing against the least, even though most teams I've ran are on the slower side. Not a winrate thing, more of just vibes based feel. Have there been attempts to do one...

    Format Discussion Metronome Battle

    I am someone who is new to the format, playing only for one month, but I did get multiple different teams to above 1400 all on fresh accounts over the holidays. I can share my thoughts on the meta/game. First of all, I also wanted to mention if it is worth making a discord for this. Would be...

    GSC OU Survey Results (December 2024)

    As a new player to the format these stats were interesting to look over. I'm having a good time learning OU, surprised to see some of the comments but also I can understand format getting a bit stale for some people long term.
